about

"There’s something distinctively collaborative"
about making a vinyl compilation album in 2025. Vinyl record listening is a
format that demands communal engagement. There are no earbuds,
bluetooth, portabilitily or isolation in the vinyl experience. From the
moment the needle drops, waves of vibration spill out from the stylus into
the air. Particular amplifiers, snaking audio cables, and dedicated Hi-Fi
equipment are required to activate the listening experience. It’s a ritual
that demands attention, defined by the coordination and collaborative
efforts of so many links in a chain.
This compilation encapsulates this mode of collaboration. It starts with the
natural community of the individuals sharing physical space on a
permanent record. Each recording includes past bandmates, tourmates,
local repair technicians, studio engineers, and longtime friends. Putting
together music for vinyl requires a high level of trust. There are many
steps in the preparation and much expense. Releasing vinyl is a
commitment to fight together through all the obstacles, and create, not
just a “sound file,” but a full listening experience. In a moment when it is
increasingly easy, and nearly free, to post songs online or generate a
“playlist”, Vinyl Vagabonds embrace the care, the thoughtfulness, and the
mystique of sharing physical and aural space in a musical collection.
We appreciate your participation in this ritual. We hope you hear the care
embedded in these tracks. These songs have traveled long and far,
passing through the ether of ideas, materialized through practice spaces,
studios, and manufacturing plants, to finally arrive on your turntable."
