We’ve been talking about a vinyl project with DJ Shadow for over a year now, and this super-limited release of his new single is just a taster of what’s to come…

100 copies, promo-only, 180-gram super heavyweight double A-side on Midnight Satin blue coloured vinyl, these beauties are rare as hens teeth and highly collectible. If you’re lucky enough to be sent or offered one, snap it up!

They also made this rather lovely short film, featuring some beautiful photographs of our pressing plant and the processes involved in making the shiny black discs we all know and love. Click on the pic above to see more…
