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

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

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

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.

This is wrong, I still think they're made by magic

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.

“I used to put my initials WMD and someone was like ‘that’s a little bit weird’ so now I just abbreviate my initials to WAR.”<br><br>That is some top tier, grade A malicious compliance right there.

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