Part record label, part art project dreamed up in an unfinished basement in Central NJ.
Since 2011 our goal has been to use outside the box ideas to create unique and collectible vinyl experiences that thoughtfully showcase the actual music on them. Music is at the heart of everything we do and Creativity is what drives us.
In 2017 we refocused our in-house services to offer on-demand printing and merchandise solutions for bands, brands and small businesses. Allowing our clients to order what they need - when they need it, eliminating additional inventory created and wasted when ordering manufacturer minimums.
Individually made, in real-time, by real people and all done in-house

Thanks to the rise of lathe cut vinyl, anyone with a Commodore 64 and an idea for a tune can now have their music cut onto a record. The results are often surprising and always impressive. Whether it's the 8-bit version of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" or the lathe cut vinyl release of the "Chiptune...

Album of the Week - August 19, 2022
This week is all about the custom jacket art and some of the Custom Jackets rolling off the printer were pretty amazing. Thought I'd take the time to share a few of them with you guys. Since there was no music w/ the jackets I decided to use an AI writing tool to generate short stories about each of them based off our descriptions. Also - if you have an idea for a jacket you'd like to make we can run off you're prints here: intheclouds.io/prints When their owners went out for the night, two dogs were left behind. They both knew that...

How is it's the middle of August already?! The heat was a little less brutal at the shop this week - but the vinyl we cut was straight 🔥 Every week is a musical adventure, this week brought us a nice mix of some upbeat synth pop and mellow acoustic jams.
