What determines the price?

Why is one record cheaper than another?

Some albums were released in multiple versions (pressings). There is the first pressing, which can be very valuable to collectors. When that stock runs out, a new pressing is made, called a repress or re-issue. These are often slightly different, such as a different sleeve or heavier vinyl.

Sometimes older albums are remastered, improving the sound quality. A new pressing is made for this as well. Differences in artwork or small production errors can also make a specific version more attractive.

What makes the difference in price?

For records that are not new, the market value is determined by scarcity and the condition of both the record and the sleeve. Pricing is based on supply and demand, and whether a version is limited or numbered.

Which variant should I choose?

If it’s mainly about the music, a repress is a good choice. An original or numbered edition has a different kind of appeal.

180 gram audiophile vinyl
Deluxe heavyweight gatefold sleeve with soft laminate finish
Insert with liner notes by director Andrew Levitas
PVC protective sleeve
Critically acclaimed 2021 drama film, directed by Andrew Levitas and featuring Johnny Depp
Score by the legendary and multiple award winner Ryuichi Sakamoto

Based on the book by the same name, Minamata follows war photographer Eugene Smith as he travels Japan documenting the devastating effect of mercury poisoning among coastal communities.
His efforts to publicize the suffering caused by corporate malfeasance soon draw the attention of the world to Minamata, the city where the effects of the toxin are most pronounced.
The score is composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto composer, electro-pop pioneer, buddy to David Bowie, and synthesizer legend.
Whether leading Yellow Magic Orchestra's cheeky pop, collaborating with cranial ambient artists, or, more recently, confronting his own mortality, Sakamoto's music expresses in a few elegant gestures the haunting richness of life.
His work since the late 1970s has taken him from the top of the charts. Sakamoto's music has consistently exuded a profound empathy.
This is a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on black & white marbled vinyl.
The 2LP package contains an insert with liner notes by Andrew Levitas.
