circuit bored records

pre order is up (with mockups for the variants)
 
i am also making custom stencil spray painted LP jackets of the album art, 10 copies total. there’s only a few left after this morning 

I stumbled on this album because I follow Unreqvited (Canada), who I discovered because they're on the same label as Violet Cold (Azerbaijan), and when the former posted it on FB I recognized the cover artist as a local (Colorado) that I've met a couple times and bought a few prints from. The internet is crazy.
 
But yeah, good album.

Pre-order for this is going up tomorrow. Most of you have probably never heard of this artist, but he's an awesome 8-bit / chiptune musician. The music is quite good, and the color variant is going to rule.

I just recieved this earlier today! Gave it a listen and it’s amazing! Definitely worth the purchase! Thanks again Yanq for putting it together and your teams hand written note! You guys are awesome 

Agreed! My splat arrived yesterday and sounds quite good. The remaster was well worth the effort. Will def be supporting your label in the future.

They are up. Grabbed the /100

Wow, these guys have pretty much found the most convenient and cost-effective way to discover new music - a $30 vinyl record with ten songs from various randos

This release rules. I've listened to it at least a dozen times since it was released. I ordered both colors. Fuck the haters. 
 
 
Just kidding Derek, you're alright. But this album still rules. 

Been building this for a few months.  Finished today.  Walnut plywood and Arm-R-Seal.  

I've put together another setup as well.  
 
Quad 57 Electrostatics with the EAR V20 Integrated Amplifier.
 

Well I love it, which is why I made it that way!  It reminds me of a fucked up ugly fence or tool shed or something that’s been outside too long. 
 
I still appreciate everyone’s opinion though, even if you aren’t into it! I’m going to keep using it as my secondary table. Going to probably end up throwing a different cartridge on there though (still not a fan of the ortofon), I’m using my AT440mla for now. 
 
Thanks everyone for playing along. This thing sat next to my kitchen table for 6 months and then took me 2 days to finish

So what are you gonna combine the ugly blue precoating with. Bet it'd look neat with a dark red wood stain and come out purple

Beatles was better than that.

hate to say it, but I agree and I'm not even a Beatles fan.

I dig it, personally.

I sold mine on eBay, I highly recommended it

So I decided to do a very simple veneer job, it's come out very nice so far. I've put this project off for long enough and I don't want to make it any more complicated than it needs to be or do something that's completely out of my wheelhouse or skill set while still learning something new (I've never worked with veneer before)
 
I was thinking of staining the table a very basic espresso or walnut color that would look nice, but then the more I thought about it I thought why make this look like a table that could have come out of the factory since there's a billion walnut turntables out there, including my main table I use now, so I'm going to stain it a cool mix of blue and green and give it some type of fade effect between the two colors and just have it be a truly unique looking table. Should be finishing it up the next couple days (veneer is set 100%, sanding is done and edges are good) and once it's all done I'll post a lot of pictures of the process and finished product.
 
It's not the most elaborate or complex job; I'm not cutting a new plinth out of wood or 3D printing a new base out of acrylic... but it's a fun project and a million times better looking than the fucking Beatles table, man.
