20 families will receive a one-of-a-kind analog record cut from their generated song, making it a truly special keepsake. The experience will take place at the
Startup Cafe within Fukuoka Growth Next.

Role of Face Records
As experts in analog records, Face Records will guide newcomers on how to enjoy this musical format, providing insights into the allure of records and suggesting playback devices. To enrich the experience, attendees will be given record bags and jackets for the newly created records, adding a tangible aspect to their musical journey.
Social Significance and Message
Analog records are more durable than CDs when treated with care, allowing families to preserve sound across generations. The tactile experience of handling jacket designs and the act of playing records creates an emotional connection between music and memories. The unique record created through the "Mirai♪ Record" experience represents more than mere audio; it serves as a time capsule linking family memories to the future.
This initiative aligns with Face Records' mission of viewing records as tools for cultural transmission, fostering a bridge between traditional music culture and future generations.
Future Vision
Face Records is committed to promoting the allure of analog records and its cultural significance beyond borders and generations. By facilitating this event, they hope to introduce the magic of records to those who have yet to experience it, enabling connections between music and cherished memories that can be passed down through time.
