Reissue / repressing

[jsengupt]

I always wonder as a vinyl enthusiast, whether it is possible to pool money from enough people to get a vinyl reissued through some of the new distributors. It could be through a pre-sale drive/crowd funding where people would pre-purchase the album through a platform and if the fundraising goal is met repressing will be done. Otherwise everybody will get back their money.

Main issue with old Indian music is whether the original mastering is available.
For most old Hindi film music, it it not.
Most of the recent old Bollywood vinyl pressings are from questionable sources.

Yes it is possible and quite easy in fact- no need to search for any master file and all that. Just take whatever wav file or MP3 you can find, eq it in your pc for highs and mids using some software and get some nice art work done in glossy printing and you are good to go. You just need 300 suckers.

Was done twice here and quality was reasonable but limited to the quality of masters available
