Description
Vinyl is still a viable business 💿 In 2010 I released I Believe In Miracles as Sunlightsquare on 7". I've repressed it every few years since, sold 5,000+ copies, and the original now sells for serious money on Discogs. Trust me: there is more business in releasing vinyl than in chasing Spotify.
So I'm finally repressing Super People, and in this video I hear the test pressing for the very first time. I check it against the 2015 original, find a Rhodes Mark I part I'd completely forgotten was there, and dig into a few records I love, from Wah Wah 45s to the Amen break. In an age where everyone worries about AI, double down on the physical. If you don't know vinyl, discover it. If you forgot about it, rediscover it ❤️
