So glad that people still want to hear music in this format. Hopefully it never becomes a lost art.

As a musician, once you stamp your own record of your own music, it must be the best feeling in the world.

They offer tours of their pressing plant and mastering facility in Detroit for $10. If you're into music, vinyl, and find yourself in Detroit, I highly recommend doing the tour and checking out their location.

Makes me understand why they're so expensive, also makes me question how the first record/mass produced records were made

The vinyl record making process is really groovy.

I've always thought it was cool that they hand write information on the record in the area around the label. Sometimes they even put random messages there.

Thank you to Jack White and the whole Third Man crew of experts for keeping this beautiful craft alive!

worth to say, they use an old way of pressing - with lacquer cut. In mid 80s DMM was invented - Direct Metal Mastering - without a lacquer cut step, so it makes a whole process cheaper and gives a better sound quality

This process is pure magic. I just wish there was better quality control these days

vinyl rules not just the sound but the amazing artwork and additional information they can put in it can be so interesting ...

Never knew how Vinyl Records are actually made, until now.
The different colors are also a nice addition they can give to the vinyl records.

I like how instead of writing WMD, which could be interpreted as weapons of mass destruction, he writes WAR instead

I worked in a shop that cleaned and prepped the frames for the screens that were used in CD illustrations. It was one of the most fulfilling jobs I ever had.

And to think that as of the 1st of March 2023 - Dark Side of The Moon has been continually pressed for 50 years. And still going strong.
