Mobineko also manufactures vinyl records, and has an in-house pressing plant circa 2017. Mobineko use Viryl Warmtone & Finebilt presses, plus their own custom built ARP fast presses, and specialise in short runs. Cassettes are recorded on a Tascam manual realtime stack and Otari DP-75.
Note: Mobineko often appears as "www.mobineko.com" in the matrix of their CDs, and as a credit on the packaging or label of the release. If this occurs, please credit the URL in LCCN (Manufactured By or Made By) and not "Mobineko Multimedia". If the URL and the brand name are both credited, please credit both.
Identifying CDs
CDs pressed at this plant will have a mastering SID code of IFPI LP50, and mould SID codes beginning with IFPI JU**.
Many discs will also contain a code with the format SM1-yxxxxx/zzA.
From 2010 onwards, the first letter in this code 'y' (after the prefix SM1) corresponds to the year the disc was pressed.
A = 2010, B = 2011, C = 2012, D = 2013, E = 2014, F = 2015, G = 2016, H = 2017, I = 2018, J = 2019, K = 2020, ...
Example: SM1-K70142/14A in Genesis - Live In New York City '86 (letter K = 2020).
Pre-2017 Mobineko worked as a brokerage with manufacturing mostly at Erika Records, MPO and GZ Media. Since 2017 Mobineko have run Viryl Warmtone & Finebilt presses in house, and in 2021 added their own customer ARP presses, designed specifically for faster mould changeovers to allow the company to focus on pressing smaller runs faster. Lacquer cutting outsourced to 24, RTI, Curvepusher, and Black Belt.
Since 2023 Mobineko now also cut & plate internally, denoted by FUTO / FUTONEKO in the matrix
