- Morphius Vinyl Manufacturing
MorphiusDisc is the preferred record pressing choice for hundreds of artists for a lot of reasons. Not only do we use state-of-the-art equipment for Direct Metal Mastering in addition to conventional lacquer mastering and stamper processing, but nearly all the records we make are mastered by three of the world’s most experienced and best known lacquer engineers, with thousands of billboard hits between them.
It also helps that when we press vinyl records we use only virgin vinyl for both our standard weight & audiophile wax, regardless of whether we are pressing on black vinyl, color vinyl, or making a custom shaped disk or a picture disc of 5", 7", 10", 12" or any size in between.
Of course many of our customers are simply making the ever-popular 12” disco-style single, which continues to be a critical element in promoting any hot urban artist. Contact any of our customer service specialists for our current special pricing on black vinyl records with one-color printed labels on your choice of paper colors, assembled into white inner sleeves, then into unprinted white Jackets with the classic disco hole, with or without shrinkwrap. Baltimore, Maryland based.

- Trax Records History
Think of a classic house record and nine times out of ten you'll think of Trax, although you may not realise it. 'Move Your Body'? 'Baby Wants To Ride'? 'Washing Machine'? 'Can U Feel It'? All Trax releases. 'House Nation'? 'Acid Trax'? 'Your Love'? 'We Are Phuture'? 'U Used To Hold Me'? Yup, those too. What's more they introduced the world to producers who've become immortalised as some of house music's greatest innovators - Larry Heard, Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles - and have provided an outlet for many more of Chicago's house artists over the years, such as Armando, Liddell Townsend, Robert Owens, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Mr Lee, Adonis, Fast Eddie, Ralphie Rosario, DJ Rush, Steve Poindexter, Terry Baldwin, DJ Skull... the list goes on.
