Abbey Road - Vinyl Pressing
Friday, March 26th, 2010
by Axiom & Allies

Whilst filming at Abbey Roads Studios last year, Boogaloo | Broadcast Media was lucky enough to get an off the cuff demonstration of a vinyl being cut & pressed.



The gentleman doing the pressing is Abbey Roads Mastering Engineer Sean Magee. Sean, amongst others, recently enjoyed working on The Beatles mono boxset and helped re-master their entire catalogue in both mono and stereo.

This piece was shot and edited for E&T Magazine.

The music featured is that of The Loves Lost. I would highly recommend looking them up.
