How a lathe cuts live music to a record

A behind-the-scenes look at the process used to create new compilation Together: Heart N Soul.

Soho Radio has shared a new film about its portable lathe, called The Soho Radio Vinyl Sessions.

Ahead of the release of Together: Heart N Soul, the documentary explores how the lathe works, how it found a home at Soho Radio, and how the forthcoming compilation came to fruition.

Together: Heart N Soul is a 2xLP compilation featuring live performances from artists including Dennis Bovell, Sampa The Great, Terri Walker, Madison McFerrin, and Joel Culpepper.

Half of all proceeds will be donated to Heart n Soul – an award-winning creative arts company and charity. They believe in the power and talents of people with learning disabilities, providing opportunities for people to discover, develop and share this power and talent as widely as possible.

Watch the film in full above, and head here to order Together: Heart N Soul.
