Are all of the vinyl releases gonna be 10"? (not that its a problem)

Big ups Jeff & Samurai

Are you kidding me? 10"s smoke it hard!

i dont have a problem mixing them, only picking them up off the platter which i can live with.  There's heaps of 10"s being released thesedays

They get lost in my crates.

That and I have big man hands. They like room to move on the platter.

yea they are all going to be 10"

we are going for the whole collectible thing, and in today's environment where there tend to be a lot of releases we want ours to stand out 

we just got the test presses for nz002, nz003, nz004 so promo's soon

Big ups Jeff. Good to see you still have so mch motivation for an old bloke!

 

he's not that old, but i'll tell him you said that :p
