Our new 3D outer ring engraving, cut 10" of music on one or both sides with your design on the outer ring. Looks even cooler with a color pressing!

** NEW TAPE OPTIONS! **

Two big updates to Mobineko's cassette tape options.

We now have C-90 tape available so recording is no longer limited to C-60. Our system will automatically calculate whether your order can use thicker C-60 tape for best quality or C-90.

Also check out our new full coverage printing option. If you have a specific design in mind please discuss with your account manager, they will be happy to help set up your templates to get the right effect.

** Mobineko EXPRESS Update **

Thanks to the addition of our on-site plating company Futoneko and some extended shifts we can now offer 3-5 week turn time for Express orders!!

Since we believe in 100% transparency here are the caveats: lots of things have to go right for a vinyl order to get out the door, with these ultra rapid turn times there is no room for a broken stamper or QC fail that happens occasionally. Machines can break down, weather stoppages can happen. Most orders will go out in these times but please don't spend all your life savings on a release party in 5 weeks time then place an order.

We may be able to press white label orders with no printed packaging even faster than 3 weeks but no guarantees!

Production times don't include shipping.

Turn time is paused between the time we ship TPs and you approve them.

Please allow 6-8 weeks for colour orders and don't forget we are away at Xmas and CNY.

NEW 3D stamper engraving available starting this weekend!

Either fill one side with a large image like a classic laser engraving, or just engrave on the ourside edge leaving 10" for your music, or engrave on the label area for a very cool label-less design.

Process of 7'' on our Mobineko Press.

13/04/2023

We can finally share the results of our massive project to add in-house cutting and plating!

No expense has been spared on buying the absolute best equipment including a brand new plating system from Digital Matrix. We have also built our own stamper finishing and automation equipment to get the absolute best - and repeatable - quality.

Having the ability to make our own stampers will avoid some recent vinyl industry bottlenecks and allow us to offer some crazy fast turnaround times in the near future.

Don't worry, we still offer the choice to get your lacquers cut with Levi @ BBM or our other partner studios.

If you are interesting in learning more about how the cutting and plating process works check out our sister company Futoneko for more in depth videos soon: https://www.facebook.com/futonekotw

Major 7" Product Refresh Incoming!

We haven't really given the 7" format enough love recently so four big changes are happening.

- we now have two dedicated 7" machines so existing orders from August 2022 onward will be pressed ahead of time and all new 7" orders will take just 8-12 weeks

- price refresh on the way to make 7" even more affordable

- currently testing 7" picture discs, expect prices and details real soon!

- splatter 7" also coming online within a few weeks

We have been working extremely hard on a very big project for the last year, it's almost coming together and we're super excited to reveal more details soon!

We are soon putting our trusty old Finebilt back into service.

We were thinking about using this machine to resume 10" pressing but lots of people have been asking about possibly expanding Express to 7", what do you think??

Let us light a candle in memory of two fallen PVC colors - GOLD and SILVER.

Unfortunately Taiwan's EPA has banned the manufacture of any new PVC containing a compound required to make metallic colors.

We have enough stock to fulfill orders already placed and we also managed to place a small order before the ban takes effect, but there will be no more metallic PVC supply for the forseeable future. If you really, really, really need a gold or silver record please contact your account manager directly.

It's been so exciting reading about the hundreds of artists who have already taken advantage of Mobineko Express! We truly appreciate all the nice comments found on IG and Twitter, it makes all the hard work worthwhile: https://twitter.com/search?q=mobineko&src=typed_query&f=live

Based on real world data from the last few months we have squeezed those production times down to just 5-7 weeks for Express orders on black vinyl - so keep 'em coming 🥳🥳🤩🤩
