How to make a vinyl record

Recently I've been getting into vinyl again. There's something about listening to an LP with a hint of crackle and pop that can't be beaten. I even like having to flip it over half way through. It's like taking a half time break during a football match. After doing a little googling I found this great article and audio slideshow about the vinyl factory in Hayes, Middlesex, the last major plant in the UK that presses about 25,000 records a week. Great stuff.

Mixcloud

As well as design, another great passion of mine is music. I recently joined Mixcloud and have been enjoying listening to some amazing mixes as well as adding some of my own. Mixcloud is a great way to discover new music and keep in touch with some of your favorite DJs and labels.
