Discover the art of making #vinyl discs. In spite of digital encoded music, vinyl #records are still loved by many people. Making a vinyl record is a sort of art that blends with both electronic and mechanical technology to store sound mechanically.
A fascinating story that will make you fall in love with these old media.
This is the first part of two parts video. The second part is available at this link: youtu.be/Z-m0ozI_Qas
This video is made from footage filmed in 2014, at Phonopress International near Milan, Italy.
After filming we discovered that the footage got damaged, so the documentary that should have been done with this footage never aired, and the footage remained in archive for nine years.
It was only recently, toward the end of 2023, that I was able to reconstruct most of it.
Also, I wish many thansk to Filippo DeFassi who was the general director at Phonopress at the time, which accompanied us into this interesting journey.
Disclosure: this video was NOT sponsored by Phonopress International. I made it just because it is interesnting.
