This listing is a mastering service (not a physical product) offered by In The Clouds, a US-based vinyl record pressing company. Vinyl mastering is the process of preparing a digital audio file specifically for the physical constraints of cutting a vinyl record, which differs meaningfully from mastering for digital streaming. The service is priced at approximately 2,703,000₫ (roughly $101 USD at current exchange rates).
Per In The Clouds' own description, the goal of vinyl mastering is to produce a version of a track that will translate well when cut into a physical groove and played back on a turntable, since factors like excessive bass, high frequencies, and dynamic range need different handling than a standard digital master. This is a standard, real step in the vinyl pressing process offered by most vinyl manufacturers, not a novelty add-on.
We were not able to locate a visible review count or star rating specifically for this mastering service listing on the page at the time of writing, so we can't speak to a broader base of verified customer experiences.
This service is aimed specifically at musicians, labels, and producers who are already planning to press their music to vinyl and need (or want) a dedicated vinyl-specific master rather than reusing a streaming master.
For artists pressing vinyl for the first time, a dedicated vinyl mastering pass like this one is generally considered a worthwhile step rather than an optional extra. Check current pricing and details here.
