About Cut From Sound

Cut From Sound transforms real vinyl records into handmade notebooks and journals. Designed for record stores, gift shops, and design-forward retailers, these are high-margin, giftable items that sell as impulse buys. Each piece is made in New York from reclaimed vinyl, making every notebook one-of-a-kind. — Cut From Sound has been working with reclaimed vinyl since 2004, turning real records into functional, everyday objects. What started in Brooklyn as Wrecords by Monkey was never about trends — it was about using every part of a record and giving it a second life. Before sustainability was a selling point, it was just how we worked. Every notebook is still cut, shaped, and assembled by hand in New York using real records — not replicas. Each one carries its own history, making it a unique piece for customers who value music, design, and sustainability. Over 20 years later, the process remains the same: take something that was once sound, and turn it into something you can hold. Rewind. Reuse. Read the vibrations.Read their story
