WHAT IS A TEST PRESS?
A Test Press usually has the words test pressing written or printed on a white or generic label. A Test Press is usually limited to 5 pressings and acts as a sample pressing cut specifically for the record label or artist to approve sound or press quality for pressing the final run for the public. Some argue that Test Presses have the highest sound quality because they are the first to get cut from fresh stampers that begin to deteriorate after 1000 pressings. Test presses are the first to get cut from a stamper, and after approval, they may be followed by Cocaine White promo copies and finally the retail copies made available for the public. Test Presses are never sold commercially and usually pop up years or even decades after the actual record is released. Test Presses are rare as hen's teeth!
Pressed exclusively for Raza del Soul for approval of the final pressing which will be made available for pre-order on Black Friday 11/27/20. Now here's your chansa to get manos on that Test Press other collectors will covet and kill for! And most of all you can donate your feria in confidence and support a good cause!
WHY THE BIG PRICE TAG? WHAT IS MY MONEY GOING TO?
100% of gross profits will be donated to Souleros Ball, a fiscally sponsored 501C3 non-profit organization to fund efforts of El Comite @muraldelaraza. This fundraiser will fund El Comite to continue its work for Chicano Mural advocacy, enlisting Chicano murals in the historic landmark inventory, protecting mural artist's rights, strengthening mural laws through CA state legislation and painting Chicano murals the way their supposed to be done...
Unapologetic, politically and spiritually provoking, culturally empowering, a standing Chicano Studies course liberated from the ivory towers, for the barrio and by the barrio!
Unavoidable, massive, public, in common areas, for common people, encompassing the entire Chicanada from the pre-Columbian era, the Mexican Revolution, to the Chicano Movement. Community based, painting the mirrored reflection of La Raza and their ties to local history, past and present.
and…
Under the schools of Diego Rivera and Judy Baca.
The goal for this specific fundraiser is to raise $2K for seed money to fund a Chicano Mural in a Chicano community in San Jose, Ca. The final mural will require more than $2K, this fundraiser is simply a kick off!
