Guest idol_wild Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Does anyone have any tips/opinions/advice on getting discs and artwork printed up? I assume there is a plethora of companies that provide this service online, but I figured any kind of advice from those who have done it before (i.e. anyone involved with a label) would be beneficial.I don't want some half-assed crew doing a bandit job.

Guest idol_wild Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Much obliged, PVH.I've got a funny feeling what I have in mind for artwork will be very expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbroken Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 if you get the chance, speak to gerold from contra, or alternatively, send a message to his myspace. Contra got their cds pressed up by a company in austria and it was dead cheap. and it looks great, they got silver bottom cds, proper labels on the cds, dual cases, a 4 page booklet, and it was all shrinkwrapped.The price escapes me though, but it was like 700 thats including delivery for like 500 cds.(I think i'm totally lying here by the way.)

PM if interested.And if your material needs mastering I can do that for you too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM if interested.And if your material needs mastering I can do that for you too.That is a pretty fine offer. We'll discuss it, but I think 500 pressings is far too many; we're a band with pretty much no following at all. We'd struggle to give away 100 probably, let alone sell 100.We will, however, require the material to be mastered. We'll be in touch if we require your services.

Until we get a stand alone duplicator anyway. However, artwork design is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
