The vinyl LP was played on a Pro-Ject turntable, recorded directly to computer using a NAD digital pre-amp and VinylStudio software then processed to CD-quality using Audacity software.
The video was created in Movie Maker, where the images and the music track were assembled into the final product.
Creating just one video such as this from a single track on a vinyl LP takes around fifteen minutes from start to finish.
One side of a six-track-per-side LP therefore takes around ninety minutes to create.
