Elements on Vinyl Delayed - Do Not Use Qrates
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- To update those who have been wondering about my original project, Elements on Vinyl, it is delayed indefinitely thanks to the incompetence of a vinyl pressing company called Qrates (partnered with GZ Media). I explain in the video.
I really apologize for this, I was hoping to have copies for the Holiday season but I have no control of this situation. I promise to keep everyone updated when I either receive the records or do a new run of orders.
You can watch the video for Elements here:

I really want to thank everyone for the words of encouragement. It really means a lot. Happy Holidays all.
wow, super sorry to hear people are having these issues currently... i imagine a lot of this is out of their hands as cyber-attacks are too common nowadays, and of course, teams like this are too small to deal with such massive (then multiplying) problems, but for sure... communication is key when the avalanche affects artists and their support base. sucks for people to feel they're taking advantage or not stepping up. but really want to share, i used QRATES two separate times, both successfully received and distributed to my community (*especially the postage rates - you can't beat - where UK to N.A. is typically 20/30, EU 10/15 - the bulk for these guys was all of 3/4 quid on the one continent! anyhow, i found your video looking for answers after seeing the site/service is down at the moment. super sad as i was planning a 3rd run! but i'm hoping (and hopeful!!) that this massive back log will eventually iron out. crowdsource sites are a beast, your work, time, money, goals, promo, and turn-around... the companies that juggle it all and only charge 5% are incredible... i've run 7 indiegogo campaigns and i count on it as an artist. i empathize and feel your frustration, knowing the music was already a labour of love to complete at all. so i'm wishing everyone luck and patience waiting it out.
'ahem' . . . . . . . "fellow-indie-offer-of-optimism-novel-comment over n out" ;]
That’s really disappointing on how a company can disrespect you like that. Take the time tho, I’d much rather see you doing well than putting out videos without your passion
That really sucks for them to do you like that. I love all your original music and just remember never let the bastards grind you down
I am sorry about this debauchery of a process, I will promise when this gets sorted out and it is available on vinyl I will be the first in line.
And to think I was pissed off when we received our CDs and found a typo in the digital title of the last track - a letter that should have been a capital but was lower case.
Small potatoes compared to your dramas, JT. Best wishes for Christmas and the new year.
Man that sucks. I’m just glad I can still stream it but when the vinyl does eventually come ill grab one
Sorry for all the bad. I hope you will be able to rec another co for vinyl in future!
Looking forward to getting elements in vinyl when it comes out.
That's horrible. I love Elements and knowing that you were trying to get it pressed on vinyl, but had this happen is gutting. Please take your time and let us know when it'll be available. I'm sure that everyone else, like myself, will happily wait until you can get them pressed with another company.
hey man! i hope this doesn’t let you down this upcoming holiday season. its tough but you got this!
Hang in there, JT. Wishing you a nice time over the holidays despite this. Try to put it out of your mind and rest for a few days. It will work out eventually.
You're a great person, love your videos. It's a shame what QRates did to you, but let's move on! Hoping you can release the album on vinyl soon!
Just wanted to say that while this all sucks and Qrates have let you down massively, my year has been made so much better with the Pink Floyd reviews and they have kept me entertained and they are just brilliant, it was great hearing your thoughts and I agree with a lot of them! Take a well-earned break for Christmas, you deserve it :))
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I'm sorry this happened to you too.
Thank you Brittany. Sorry to hear about your issues with them as well. Glad to connect with you on UA-cam though.
I really feel your frustration JT. I’ve done 200+ album productions over the years. With CDs I’ve had major issues only once or twice but with vinyl there’s one problem or another roughly 50% of the time. But if there is, open communication with the factory is the key thing, I agree with you on that. If you don’t get information about what’s going on, it can drive you nuts.
I will cherish my Elements test pressing! Sorry, man. What a disappointment. 😞
It will happen eventually JT.....
Wow
Do you know how much these will cost?
Sounds like Qrates doesn’t know wtafh they’re doing.
That's a shame that it's been delayed because Qrates are fucking terrible.
They are terrible! Thiefs.. Need to be sued
This is fucking awful 😞
