Release on vinyl.
Zero risk.
No upfront cost. No unsold stock in your hallway. Fans pre-order, and DeepGrooves only presses — and ships — once you’ve hit your goal.
Three steps
Configure the record
Shape it in the configurator — wax, label, jacket, run. Pick “Open a crowdfunding” as the way out and set your price, goal and perks.
Fans pre-order
Share one link. Backers reserve a copy and save a payment method — no money changes hands yet.
Press with one click
Hit the goal and you press with a single click. We manufacture and ship every copy for you.
Break-even calculator
Know your numbers before you launch.
Your quote gives you this figure, excluding VAT. Drag it to see how the rest moves.
Of the copies needed to break even, the share you buy yourself — it lowers how many other backers you need.
Break-even
52copies to cover costs
Pressing cost (ex VAT)
€1,000.00
Platform fee — not yet fixed
8% (illustrative)
Per copy, after VAT and fee
€19.42
Backers needed
47
You need 47 backers at €26.00 — every backer after that is profit.
The smallest run is 100 copies in the current plan — still to be confirmed — so a lower break-even means you are in profit before the run is full.
These figures are an illustration, not a quote. They follow the platform’s own goal formula at an illustrative 21% VAT, 8% platform fee and €0.35 per transaction; the real percentages are not fixed yet and every run is cut to order, so your numbers come from the plant by email.
