The new website looks amazing. So does the new logo. What do you think?

Interesting that they moved to the Shopify platform.

I like the clean look of it all.

In the previous version, "VINYL" was one of the main categories but now it is "MUSIC" instead.

Does this mean that Mondo will be releasing CDs and/or cassette tapes in the near future?

Very clean looking site - took me a few seconds to realise there was a hidden side bar to the left of the home page that extends to reveal all the store type stuff.

See that 'vinyl' has been renamed the generic 'music', but VHS is still VHS, not a generic 'movies' or something similar... don't know if we should read anything into that. Are Mondo going to be doing more than just' vinyl on the music side?*

Less enthusiastic about the new logo - looks a bit scrappy and less authoritative, like something a teenager would scrawl on their school notepad, but perhaps that's the whole point!

*EDIT - Ah see NMA has just made the same deduction - great minds think alike.

its nice, but i wish my orders had migrated over. I'm having an address problem and the new account they set up for me had the old one. I changed it and emailed to make sure my pre orders are still going to the new address, so i'm sure everything will be fine. they were super helpful about getting it changed last week.

as for MUSIC, spencer did say that his aims with the label was to make it the premier choice for composers in any format, so i think in the future we may see CDs, tapes and Digital for all releases. Very cool things happening!

I have been in this business a long time. Now if I don't want to do a show, it's not because I got stage fright. It's because some creature from beyond doesn't want me to do the show. Now gangway.

They've changed my address to my new one in my account, I just hope that they remember that my account history wasn't empty before they moved it!

yeah, i don't love that my guardians pre-order or my MONDO 237 pre orders aren't there.

Hopefully migrating the old data over to the new site is in the plan. I would think so. Kind of odd they didn't do at the same time they switched to the new site.

If you've not had an email from them in the last 48 hours or so, check your spam folders - they've moved the accounts over but you need to reactivate it.
