Copyright restrictions pose a challenge for our channel. YouTube automatically monetizes the songs in this mix, directing ad revenue to copyright owners. This means we can’t control the ads or their frequency. As a result, 99.9% of MAJ’s yearly viewership generates no income for us due to copyrighted music. MAJ’s mission is to share high-quality vinyl-only mixes. To continue, we need support to maintain our studio and cover expenses.

"This mix is both a personal journey and a dedication to the incredibly eclectic Estonian music scene during the Soviet regime. Having lived in Estonia for some time, I quickly stumbled across the country's unique and diverse music from the 1970s and '80s. Estonia's location between the two largest record factories in the world at the time, which were located in Riga and St. Petersburg and run by the state-owned Soviet record company Melodiya, as well as its proximity to Finland and the associated influence of Estonian artists with Western music available through Finnish television and radio, created a unique blend of contemporary Western influences and the pre-existing Estonian music culture. That's what makes this mix so exciting and special for me." ------------ Cameras: - Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K Pro https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/ ------------ The Mixer: Varia Instruments RDM40 https://www.varia-instruments.com/ Stylus & Cartridges by Ortofon UK: - Ortofon 2M Blue https://www.henleyaudio.co.uk/brands/ortofon/ Record Cleaning Brush: https://ramar.berlin/en/ Record brush “Joni” ------------ Equipment Provided by Audio Gold: The Klipsch LaScala Leben CS 600x Valve power amplifier Grundig Audiorama Hanging Speakers Revox B77 Tape Machine  Yamaha CR-2020 vintage receiver  Mordaunt Short Festival Series 2 vintage speakers Audio Gold custom Technics plinths.
