Music created using Suno Vinyl and artificial intelligence can now be manufactured and collected as actual physical vinyl records.
According to recent reports by the Los Angeles Times, AI music company Suno is launching a service called ‘Suno Vinyl,’ which allows users to turn their AI-generated music into custom vinyl records.
Users can select tracks totaling up to 46 minutes from their Suno library. Album covers can be created by uploading custom images or generating them using AI directly on the Suno platform. These images will be featured on the record jacket and labels. The records are produced as 12-inch discs made from PETG, a type of plastic. The expected price is approximately $45, excluding shipping.
The official release date and manufacturing partner have not yet been disclosed, and Suno is currently accepting sign-ups for a waitlist.
This new service arrives amidst a continued resurgence in the vinyl record market. According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), domestic vinyl record revenue increased by over 9% year-over-year last year, surpassing $1 billion.
Founded in 2022, Suno is a leading company in the AI music generation market and operates an office in Venice, Los Angeles.
In February, the platform surpassed 2 million paid subscribers, and annual revenue is projected to reach $300 million. Following a funding round in June exceeding $400 million, Suno’s valuation climbed to $5.4 billion.
