In this episode we cover all you need to know about how records are pressed! We are joined by Women in Vinyl fam Heath Gmucs, back to talk about all things manufacturing. Heath is the creator of Wax Mage Records and has been a press operator at Gotta Groove Records in Ohio for over a decade. We’ve covered the first steps already in our cutting and plating episodes (go check those out if you haven’t), now let’s get into the nitty gritty of how these “hot plastic babies” aka our records are pressed. Hang in there through some audio issues in the first half, they resolve after the ad.
