We cut directly to vinyl: the final disc you play and keep, using the hardest cutting tool on the planet, a diamond.
A commercial record starts with a softer lacquer disc cut by a sapphire. That lacquer is then used to create metal stampers for pressing. A long and excessive process if you only need a small quantity.
Since 2026, every record we cut uses a synthetic diamond stylus we make ourselves, using more diamonds.
It's the dubplate tradition: one record at a time, no minimum.

Meant to be kept, and enjoyed
Phones get lost, broken and replaced. Technology moves on, playlists change, hard drives fail, music you upload disappears and photos sink into a camera roll. Cut into a groove on the disc, a vinyl recording waits on a shelf instead, ready whenever someone reaches for it. Vinyl has already stood the test of time.
How long does anything really last?We’ve cut one-off records since 2016, and it’s a hard craft to get right. We cracked it by making what matters ourselves: our own software, blank discs and diamond styli, on a room of lathes we know inside out. Nothing waits on a supplier, so orders turn round in days, consistently.
Written for our lathes. Every stage, file to groove, calibrated.
We make our own blanks and grind our own Mohs 10 styli, so nothing waits on a supplier.

Before you order
Each record is made to order in our workshop. Every order shows an estimated dispatch date, worked out from our current workload, on the product page and at checkout, with an estimated delivery range for your country. If you need it for a special day, order as early as you can. For how long recent orders have actually taken, see our "VinylArt Co in numbers" page, which shows the measured figures.
Use Report an issue on the order in My orders: it opens once the order has been dispatched and goes straight to the team. Or get in touch. Most issues are sorted quickly by email, and if your record has a genuine fault or was damaged on the way, we'll replace it. Please let us know within 14 days of it arriving. As custom-made items, our records are exempt from "change of mind" returns under UK consumer law, but we stand behind our work. Some of our most valued customers started with a replacement order. We're here to make it right.
Yes. We hold an MCPS-PRS Limited Manufacture licence that covers commercial tracks for private, personal use. Wedding playlists, birthday compilations, anniversary mixes—all fine.
If you have both versions, send both and we'll choose whichever works best for vinyl. If you only have one version, that's fine too.
Like any record, it lasts with care. Keep it in its sleeve, store it upright, keep it clean and play it with a decent stylus, and it will give you years of listening.
