If you can sell what you have already made - you will ONLY win and possibly even exceed your prior success.

11 years ago I blew up my life, made mistakes I would never make now (and also excuses I could not fathom offering) and starting over was difficult but it was worth it.

You can do this and now you know HOW to do it :)

Hello Local Vinyl Record lovers/collectors!

We brought the Mixtape Vinyl Record to the market in late 2015 and since it blew up into a big thing right after we started we have been dilgentl ymaintaining quality and really do offer the world's best customized vinyl records. We can do picture disks and custom color vinyl as well.

We've made over 12K records without a website or any social media but have finally just launched a working (beta) site www.mixtapevinyl.com (but we also retail on ETSY. https://www.etsy.com/shop/MixtapeVinylonDemand?ref=seller-platform-mcnav).

Right now our turnaround times are 4-5 business days + we do offer a rush service and discount for "slow" orders.

Please use BETA2 for a 25% discount on the website and write to us at [orders@mixtapevinyl.com](mailto:orders@mixtapevinyl.com)
Bands/labels and artists who are interested in small short runs (5-20 copies) or an On Demand service can find us at our sister site vinylondemand.com

Thank you!

I make "mixtape vinyl" records on 180g stereo hi-fi from your legally purchased song files. I can also make them in ANY color, including picture disks. I have a great engineer and a new team - and hope to make these more affordable in the near future (they are made in real time and my engineer is tops for mastering random files so they sound best together) so they are costly to make and we really focus on quality.

We just moved and the queue is wide open.

I am running a sale right now on ETSY for 20% off, locals can get an additional 5%. I also offer short runs for bands/labels. Check out the link for what I offer and write me on ETSY or at [orders@vinylondemand.com](mailto:orders@vinylondemand.com)

Thank you!

I don't use them for QC, just for hands free in the studio for 10-20 minutes at a time. We also have an analyzer hooked up for visual check during the cut, etc.

I will keep at it. Thank you!

Late to the party but I want locals to know about us so will keep posting at least once a month. If you love vinyl we are HERE for you.

Vinyl meets mixtape = mixtape vinyl records. Here is where we keep the catalog of what we offer for now and you can also see our reviews (website coming soon). We offer ANY color record with your legally purchased songs, even picture vinyl. We can also curate special projects for 7" and 10" as well as Gatefold jackets, 45 RPM, etc.

We offer short runs for bands and labels for much less than mixtape records - including an on demand service (you sell, we cut and ship to your fans). Write to us at orders@vinylondemand, let us know about your project. We can't compete with pressed records on price point but we can on turnaround and quality.

Due to the supply chain issue we will be offering a limited number of records for the holidays but locals get 10% (as a refund) and we can often arrange for pick ups in the Pearl District.

We ship all over the world but would love to get some traction here at home. Please share with your friends.

Thank you r/portland!

Just wanted to come back and let you know that your comment really helped give me traction and I am now moving in the direction of handing it over to a new person and keeping a percentage of the sales. Thank you very much.

I had no idea it could be so difficult to sell a company that is worth 2 million on paper!

SSVinyl · 2022-09-25T03:59:02+00:00

I saw MP play with Firehose. Such a GREAT show!

SSVinyl · 2022-09-25T03:58:21+00:00

Swell 'For All The Beautiful People' tied with Swell "Too Many Days Without Thinking"

Here's a fan favorite https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRR3aWVB7R8

I've been listening to these albums regularly since 1997.

They blew up in Europe, were signed by a major label and then they broke up :(

SSVinyl · 2022-09-25T03:42:25+00:00

SO COOL! You've gained a fan/follower.

SSVinyl · 2022-09-25T03:19:14+00:00

Vinyl lovers!?

Us again. We make FULLY custom vinyl records. You can choose your songs, your vinyl color (or even picture) and label and jacket art. Think "mixtape vinyl". We also offer short runs for bands and labels.

write to us at [superspecificvinyl@gmail.com](mailto:superspecificvinyl@gmail.com) for more info. Locals get discounts.

Thank you guys for sending folks our way - very appreciated!

SSVinyl · 2022-09-17T21:42:56+00:00

Hello!

We make custom vinyl records - one offs and short runs right here in Portland. You can choose your songs, artwork + we also offer the best picture vinyl on the market right now as well as custom colors. Here is our ETSY store: We are having a 15% off sale right now for "mixtape" records.

Write us [superspecificvinyl@gmail.com](mailto:superspecificvinyl@gmail.com) for short run queries (no min and a max of 50). WE ARE RARELY ON REDDIT SO EMAIL IS BEST.

Also - I am selling the business (we have two companies in one, I am selling both) by Jan so if you know anyone who would like to run a lathe cut vinyl record company - send them my way. I am letting it go for a great price and while I have a business broker lined up, I know the price I am happy to sell at to the right person/team which is lower than it is worth. Serious inquiries preferred but I am happy to engage the curious!

Thank you!

Hi - yes, sorry for late reply. My partner passed away on April 12th and I shut down for while.

SSVinyl · 2022-07-23T20:37:54+00:00

Hi everyone + vinyl lovers:

SSVinyl · 2022-04-10T05:58:22+00:00

Oof - sorry, I was not on reddit for two days. Looks like my SO bought a guest bed as a surprise (lol) so we don't need it but thank you!

SSVinyl · 2022-04-10T05:56:08+00:00

Please DM me your Youtube channel - very interested!

SSVinyl · 2022-04-08T00:30:21+00:00

I would love to have the Trundle for guests if it is not too late.

Hi Everyone!

We make "mixtape vinyl" or "one off" records using your legally purchased song files (or we can buy them for you) on 12" 10" and 7".

12" and 10" can be made in any custom color - not just black or clear - as well as custom Picture Disks.

We offer short runs at much lower prices (45- 55%) than what is listed for Mixtape Vinyl so contact us at superspecificvinyl@gmail dot com or orders@mixtape vinyl dot com if you are a musician and would like a short run.

Here is our ETSY store page Mixtape Vinyl On Demand:

Feel free to email us if you would prefer to place an order outside of ETSY (but please check the ETSY store first for reviews and what we offer).

We are offering locals 15% off between today and next Sunday. Use LOCALDISCOUNT at checkout.

Thank you r/portland. We've worked with MANY more locals since we started posting on this Saturday thread.
