Thank you to everyone who attended this “historic” event at Gotta Groove Records last week. For the first time in many decades, several lacquer engineers were in the same room with record platers, pressers, pvc manufacturers, blank lacquer disc manufacturers, and independent label/distributors to discuss the future of vinyl and how we can all work together to better serve our customers. Stay tuned for future updates!
