After living 40 years in my country of origin, we moved to another and I start my physical collection of everything again, music, movies and video games

I turn old public-domain recordings into one-of-one CDs, each built around a person or a specific moment

Hey everyone!

Long story short:

I started DJing in 2024 almost by accident, after casually telling a friend I wanted to give it a go. Since then, it's completely changed the way I listen to music. I've gone from R&B and soul into jazz, blues, ragtime, and eventually way back into recordings from the 1880s–1930s.

Along the way, I've realised how personal music is. We all connect with different songs at different points in our lives, and sometimes the right piece of music can say something words can't.

That idea is what led me here. I've been restoring forgotten public-domain recordings and pressing a handful onto physical CDs, each one built around a specific person or a story/moment they've shared with me.

Rather than giving someone a song they already know, it's about finding something they've probably never heard and thinking, this reminds me of you.

I'm only making 5 this time 👉🏼 https://pressplaycds.lovable.app/

Would genuinely love to hear what you think, even if it's not your thing. I just want to share some of the magic I've found in digging through forgotten music.

If this sounds like something you'd want made for someone, send me a message/fill in the form in the link above with a little about them and I'll see what I can dig up. I'm taking 5 commissions for this first run, and I'd love to make each one genuinely personal. 😊

And even if you wouldn't commission one, I'd love to hear what you think of the idea!

Have a great day ahead.

I literally want to cry.

I recently bought these blu-rays. Autopsy of Jane Doe, The Island, Magic, The Manitou, Rollercoaster, Street Trash and Bubba Ho Tep and now they are all coming out on 4K. Some of them even steelbooks.
