It's a programmed using soundchip and isn't accurate as the original SNES. I can't see ANY point of vinyl record from 8-bit to 16-bit. Only 32-bit PS1 or more. Using some "CD" quality record.
Erm....no it’s not it was recorded directly from the console, and then professionally mastered in a studio. It comes directly from the console, not a soundchip recording.
The audio is phenomenally clean. It's amazing how much richness this recording brings to music I've heard almost all of my life. I'm hearing tones and effects that I've never caught before.
Originally bought from selectstartrec.bigcartel.com Sold out for a very long time now. If there are any copies available on the site it’s not this specific one and the audio quality won’t be as good
I can't believe you actually got a record from this guy, I ordered $100 worth of records from him a few years ago and I never got them. He kept lying about "they're on hand" and "shipping next week" until the time period where I couldn't get my money back from PayPal had surpassed, then he just ignored all of my emails after that. Don't ever order from Select/Start Records, it's a total rip off.
Not sure to be honest, I don’t own the lathe. I hear some people say it sounds ok enough, heard others that don’t like it. Hard to say any which way, but it probably goes without saying that it’s not gonna compare to the pressed sound. If it’s your only option, might as well get a copy of any version you can find
$220 isn’t too far off from what I’ve seen it sell for in the past. I had a second copy I let go for $200 more than a year ago, so if you’re wanting a copy, $220 isn’t too bad of a price I suppose
If you’re selling it, $220 is great. If you’re buying, $220 is about as fair as you can get, it’s unlikely you’ll get a price lower than that. If you have a connection to the soundtrack or it means something to you, it’s worth the price
Anthony, got a question regarding your setup/prep for the records. How do you keep it so static-free and clean sounding? I have a Denon DP300F, I use the carbon brush but it's ultra static-y when I flip it, and it doesn't always "brush out" the static. Hope you can share your method/ways of maintaining it, I'd love to hear my records without static like your vids!
I first wipe the records with a soft microfiber brush to eliminate fingerprints or grease or anything like that. This usually builds up some static. I use a cheap Audio Technica anti static brush to get the static off. While holding the record in my hands, I wipe it in the same way you would with a carbon brush and it surprisingly does a good enough job. It’s impossible to get it completely clean without using a professional machine, but for me it does the job well enough. The static goes away nearly instantly which always impresses me
No, this was years ago and we’ve all moved on. Select/Start obviously still exists from the original creator but I have not been involved since this release I make my own stuff for fun, but those are outside of this
We don’t have a Bandcamp, we have a bigcartel. This was sold on our bigcartel quite a long time ago and sold out whenever that was. I think there’s a few copies left as extras so your best shot is to message @selectstartrec on Instagram and ask there
@@vgmvinyl thanks! i'll send em a DM right away and test my luck haha. also thanks for the great content and fan interaction, as someone who is trying to get more into the world of game bootleg pressings i always check up here to inform myself more on certain releases and companies
SSR-001 - The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (lathe cut) SSR-002 - Yoshi’s Island (lathe cut) SSR-003 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (lathe cut) SSR-004 - Super Mario World (real pressing) SSR-005 - Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker (lathe cut) SSR-006 - Super Mario Land (lathe cut) SSR-007 - Metroid II (lathe cut) SSR-008 - stay tuned (likely a real pressing)
@@vgmvinyl when will the metroid 2 be available? Also how can I be notified of these pressings before hand? I don't have social media. Just a redit account. Perhaps email newsletter?
You can get it selectstartrec.bigcartel.com Instagram is pretty much your only way to stay in touch though. After Metroid, he’s doing one more release and is claiming he’s done after that
This was 2 years ago. Nowadays many lathe places offer colors like milky white, transparent red, transparent green, transparent blue, and many places do picture discs as well. Most of the companies at the time of the comment only offered basic black or clear colors It was a different time
I actually helped make this! I did the art for the album jacket and both of the labels on the record Super Mario 64 is being pressed by another company but all preorders have been sold out for a long time now
I did the first 4 releases, so Link to the Past, Yoshi’s Island, Sonic 2, and Super Mario World. Only the art though. There are some other albums I’ve been involved in that I have on this channel too (Twisted Metal 2 and Um Jammer Lammy) I like to keep busy :P I’ve helped many others get started with doing their own lathe soundtracks as well Super Mario 64 is being done by Raygun Records, find them on Instagram :)
Wow. I’m stunned how that sounds on vinyl.

Finally got myself a copy. Can't wait for it to arrive

@@vgmvinyl C'mon really I got a copy and I might say that sounds better than yours
I’m so happy I was able to nab one of the repress copies. I can’t wait!
Awesome stuff dude!
Just ordered mine today!
You got it?
@@farahlahouar4100 haha probably not
I like how they made like 200 and quit, lots of people would love to get ahold of this.
Not speaking directly about this release, but it is standard for an unofficial label to release only one pressing and be done with them
@@vgmvinyl Nobody told me :( I cry
But thanks for making a video of it!
If they made too many then they’d clearly get sued
@@duckhuntdog88 good point
I can’t wait to get my copy

Oh my goodness
Is this still available? I added to my Discogs but no one selling. I need this!
It’s banned for sale on Discogs because it’s a bootleg. Try eBay :)
How is the lathe cut version compare to this in terms of sound quality?

Hard to say any which way, but it probably goes without saying that it’s not gonna compare to the pressed sound. If it’s your only option, might as well get a copy of any version you can find
I wanna buy one!
Super duper jumpin time
More pressings available? It'll be a stunning christmas gift.
Been sold out for a long time now
Quick question anthony! is 220$ worth for this specific yellow pressing?
$220 isn’t too far off from what I’ve seen it sell for in the past. I had a second copy I let go for $200 more than a year ago, so if you’re wanting a copy, $220 isn’t too bad of a price I suppose
Thanks just got an offer but im thinkin bout it a lil too much

where do you get your vinyls from?
the internet
Are you guys no longer making vinyl :(
No, this was years ago and we’ve all moved on. Select/Start obviously still exists from the original creator but I have not been involved since this release

was this put on their bigcartel?

Oh my bad, it’s selectstartrecs.bigcartel.com
It does say sold out though which is news to me
Are these lathe cuts?
Nope. Lathes can’t be in color like this. Real pressing from a real plant
@@vgmvinyl This is completely incorrect, there are plenty of colored lathes

It was a different time
@@vgmvinyl this was not true at any point in history
I had a lot less exposure of what companies were out there 3 years ago
Beautiful! Is this record also lathe cut just like the rest in the label?
This is a real pressing made by an actual plant. Lathe cuts aren’t able to be cut in color other than black or clear
@@vgmvinyl Ah, I see. Cool!
this is awesome. where do you find these? would love one for the mario64 soundtrack

Anthony [TRP] Dude thats awesome! Have you done any other select/start records? Also which label made the mario 64 record?!
