Cherry Blossom 21,538 Posted December 27, 2021 I just designed and ordered this custom vinyl using Ultraviolence / Honeymoon era throwaways! I'm super happy with the design - I ordered it just now from Kunaki. I'll share pictures when it arrives! Here's the packaging 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's the packaging when the vinyl arrives, can you talk about the quality of the vinyl itself? i've wanted to use kunaki but i've had some fears due to a. copyright issues and b. the vinyl itself being very low quality. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I found out the reason my AKA sounded off was because I used the iTunes files, and didn’t even convert them to mono before sending them off. I would recommend finding the HIGHEST QUALITY POSSIBLE of whatever u wanna get pressed and then tweaking those a little bit more to satisfy your ears. I got TRANSNATION by SOPHIE pressed alongside another Lana unreleased record a month or two ago, and they sound fantastic. My Instagram is @invtryctrl if y’all wanna take a peak 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoftwareUpgrade 19,349 Posted January 8, 2022 Irked that Taylor Swift and Lana have started this trend of a ridiculous amount of pressings made for a record. It worked for them, and Folklore had the different variations in artwork, but it's made all of the labels force their random artists to have 5 pressings to back up all of the plants 😭, too much demand and not enough supply imo. Also the supply shortage doesn't help either....and the inflation....oml, the dark ages 7 Quote I'm Poppy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also the supply shortage doesn't help either....and the inflation....oml, the dark ages If an artist has high demand I don't see the problem with having large amount of pressings and multiple versions. Lana and indie Tumblr age music is probably responsible for the vinyl comeback among young people. As someone who lives in a country where buying brand new records is a luxury with a few expensive record stores, it's easier for me to find good deals or search for options online because Lana and other musicians have expensive shipping (usually 30$). If you meant that every random artist and their dog are pressing vinyl records nowadays it's soo true and kinda annoying. I've literally seen Kindz Bop and Shrek having records. I don't want to sound like a snobbish hipster but it's so cringeworthy when I see the most random music in a vintage form such as vinyl. 4 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find the variety fun, my issue is more with the "irrelevant" artists having a silly amount of pressings, which clogs up record plants. (IMO) Also these artists who aren't Taylor or Lana rarely have alternate covers, it just seems too uninspired/too money-grabby for me. 5 Quote I'm Poppy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigspender 8,368 Posted January 15, 2022 does anyone have a shitty copy of paradise?? like i got mine from barnes and noble in 2014 and i haven’t touched it in so long bc we use my boyfriends paradise record. the differences are his is 180 gram, mine is wayyy lighter than that, and honestly really flimsy and the sound quality basically has no low end or bass. the mids are really strong and the high end is only her S and T’s. the cover is also really flimsy. i would literally guess it was made on kunaki if it didn’t have a spine. which means it’s just bad quality. does anyone else know why or have this? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherry Blossom 21,538 Posted January 15, 2022 GUYS MY RECORD TURNED UP i love it so much. it’s a bit crackly but the sound is fine, i think the sound quality would be better if i had converted the files to the right format beforehand. but yes omg it’s so good i didn’t have to pay customs or anything i’m so happy 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you said "irrelevant" I thought you meant alternative artists like Men I Trust or something. I've seen no-name artists that don't even have half a million views on YouTube that have an aesthetic splatter record. In many stores half of the of records are from no-names, like what? Who would even buy that? Buying vinyl is still extremely rare and a luxury. I also don't understand people buying random records for the sake of the eXpErIeNcE. It's just consumerism with an excuse. I see it like buying random clothing you didn't even try on or don't even like and awkwardly wearing it. 1 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FR though!! i’ve seen so many bands who barely have any listeners on spotify have like 10-15 different pressings. mostly death metal bands. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
