Recently I've been working on some tracks to be released later this year which have a Old Skool vibe to them, one of the things I wanted to do with one of the tracks was to make it sound like it is being played on traditional vinyl by having a record needle put down at the start and then bring in the crackles, hum and sound just like a record. One way to do this is to actually put it on vinyl and then rerecord it, but that's just too hard, costs money and has uncontrollable results. Thankfully it wasn't too hard to do and we show you below how I managed to do this.

Here's a quick example of the intro of the track to give you an idea of what you could create using this technique.
