Corduroy Records
Corduroy Records was a vinyl record pressing plant and record label that existed from 1994–2005 in Highett, Victoria, Australia. The Corduroy pressing plant was established by Nick Phillips of the garage rock band The Breadmakers who saved Australia’s only vinyl pressing plant from the scrap dealers in Sydney and had it relocated to Highett, Victoria. Staff members of Corduroy included Mikey Young and Brendan Huntley of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Guy Blackman of Chapter Music, and Richard Stanley of Aarght Records. The pressing plant had the ability to record bands straight to acetate to be pressed onto  records, and in 2000 The White Stripes recorded there. These recordings were shelved and remained in Australia until 2012 when the band secured them and were released in 2020. Members of Sonic Youth also recorded at Corduroy, releasing "Melbourne Direct" in 2004. In 2005 the pressing plant was bought by Zenith Records and is now located in Brunswick East, Victoria.
