DJ Spinna and Gil Tamazyan show off a special edition green record of In A Song we just pressed for Push the Fader and Footlong Development.
DJ Spinna came to Capsule Labs after his show at El Cid with Niteshift last friday to treat us with a rare underground set of tracks that he doesn't normally get to play in public.
We're delighted to have hosted the Pressed fashion show from Vanessa Salazar benefiting the Life Group LA, and featuring music from Damian Lazarus. Thank you to everyone involved for making this event a success and helping the community.

"Though overall album sales dropped 13 percent in 2010, sales of vinyl increased by 14 percent over the previous year, with around 2.8 million units sold. This is a new record for vinyl sales since 1991, when the format had all but disappeared in the wake of the CD boom, according to a report released yesterday by Nielsen SoundScan."
We had an impromptu session with our friend Jeremy Sole tonight recording accordion riffs from Quantic Music and some basslines for his upcoming remix of Thievery Corporation. Dave De Cristo and Gil Tamazyan worked their magic on the console to capture an amazing recording in our newly remodeled sound stage.
We're proud to have mastered, cut and pressed this fantastic release at Capsule Labs. As Spinna puts it "people can't complain there isn't any good music out there."
Nice plug for Capsule Labs in this interview of our friend Moe Espinosa (Drumcell) of Droid Behavior who's been working with us for a long time.
