Question 1

How is a Post-a-Record made?

They are not made like factory pressed vinyl. Instead of using stampers, each Post-a-Record is embossed onto a thin sheet of plastic - crafted one groove at a time, in real time. Every piece is entirely handmade with imperfections guaranteed.

Yes - you’ll get to watch your voice memo being cut in real time. It's one of the highlights of the experience!
