One great record a month.

For November 2024 - Alexander Gow.

IMP049 Vinyl Club was born out of a demand from you, our music family.

For every one of you asking us for more connection with the people who make the music we all love, for those of you asking us for a means of discovering new music outside of algorithms.

Like the slow fashion and slow food movement, but for music.

The premise is simple. At the start of each month we'll send you a record we love. It'll be a record that might not be your usual genre but will be one that hopefully you'll enjoy discovering. We'll make sure that it's collectible and of a seriously high quality, both in pressing production - and most importantly the music.

The very first record we had the honour of putting out into the world was Alexander Gow's Dizzy Spell

Because the thing about this record, is that we still play it. We still revel in it, and it still throws up its charms and questions - just as all good records should. Alexander has been one of Australia's finest songwriters for a while now, understated as he is.

We've put out over 100 records in one year - but we didn't want our subscribers to miss out on our first. 

To balance the past, we wanted to give you the future of the label. Two young signings that we think you'll fall for, whom we showcased to the world this month at SXSW Sydney and are already earning rave reviews.

 Two tracks from Loose Content and Liminal we'd love you to hear on a beautiful clear vinyl 7".

All Vinyl Club members in November receive both Dizzy Spell AND the bonus 7" this month. Dizzy Spell comes with an individually-numbered Vinyl Club obi strip.

Only $49 per month, free shipping, and free swaps for any of our catalogue.

Impressed strives to bring you a diverse, curated selection of incredible music on vinyl, with a focus on supporting Australian artists. IMP049 is one record on your doorstep, every month. Each month, our team select a special record to feature for our club.

Each month, we also include a piece of writing, journalism or photo essay connecting you closer to the musician who made your new album.

IMP049 Vinyl Club members are also Impressed VIPS - early access to drops and sales, vouchers for our merch and our friends (Heaps Normal, anyone?) and access to records we're pressing that we don't even put on our website they're so exclusive.
