Yep, we spent nearly 10.000 EUR to make this happen. We will barely come above break-even on sell out.

3 x 150 = 450

Well, 3 different releases, no one pressing plant will consider it as 450 copies cause masters and artworks are different. GZ usually don't make this short run, question still valid (and only for personal info). |

Hello, our storefront that works through GZ (NOT Pirates) allows pressing in count of 100. Some parts are minimum 250 (covers), but you can always pay and reject to receive the extra.
We do not have a lot of space, so we press small quantity. Already with all these double LPs here, we are close to out of room.

| Yea the price is a bit steep, gonna be tough to not buy all 3 though. Been a fan of these guys for a long time, great to see someone press their stuff on vinyl. Any chance of releasing more of their back catalogue in the future? |

Possibly, in fact. It took us a long time, but we convinced Tamas that if these do well (sell out or come near), then we can re-press the early TC works that've been only in very low run and virtually impossible to find forever.
So, please support if you'd like to see the early works.
I promise there is not a way to make this stuff any cheaper ... Runs of 150 copies with pro printed covers, colored vinyl, heavyweight everything, and remastering. It's virtually insane.

Did you try to contact some labels to see if they are willing to distribute your releases? With shipping costs being so high all over the world I'm sure you could work out an exclusive distribution deal with someone in the U.S.A. and perhaps Canada. If you could find 2 labels that are willing to take 50 copies each then manufacturing cost should go down a bit. Just a suggestion.
I know I will not be buying any more releases from your label after the pathetic shipping price for Shining/Monumentum 7" EP. Don't mean to personally attack you or your label, I know what it's like when people bitch and whine about shipping costs - I'm from Canada, the country with the highest shipping prices in the world. But when shipping is at par or more than the price of the merchandise it is time to say no. Either way, your releases will be sold out within a few hours with or without my support. |

If you have a gripe about something, contact us! It doesn't help to get angry without discussing. Write us privately if you've had a problem.
As far as distro goes. We work with a few in small numbers, but only a few have stepped up and asked to work with us. Don't really have time or energy to track down the 100s of distros worldwide, as we're pretty much just focused on bringing out quality music, which takes a lot of fucking effort to get perfect.
Every release, we link up with a new distributor but not every distributor wants all our titles because the genres are so varied.
We have someone shipping for us in USA at a reasonable cost for LPs. The new USPS shipping rates just sent things completely out of whack though, which basically only screwed Canada. They occurred only right before those Shining materials went live, so we'll see the effects right about now, as those are about to ship.

I'm not angry and I did talk to you in private about this matter. Better option was for me to order through the European store which I didn't know was an option. I thought since I live in Canada I can only order from the North American section. Turns out shipping was almost half the price if I placed the order from the EU store. But it was too late at that time.
And this is a discussion board so people will discuss your releases and whatever might be related to them if the topic comes up. Unless the only purpose of this thread was to advertise your next release with no input allowed? |
