A technical and artistic overview of the Music & Light functional art turntable series, designed and restored by Vojin Vukovic at Music & Light Studio.
Each piece originates from a vintage analog mechanism (1975–1985), fully reassembled and reinterpreted as a sculptural experience of sound and illumination.
All models are based on fully mechanical turntables, restored and modernized through LED illumination and sound-reactive design. Each unit is an independent, handcrafted piece — a bridge between analog precision and visual expression.
All original manufacturer marks and trademarks remain property of their respective owners.
The work is presented as an independent artistic reinterpretation, not affiliated with or endorsed by the original manufacturer.
| NAME | Mechanical Base | Transformation | Process | Concept | Document |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blueprint | Garrard GT 35 (UK, 1975) | Restored and artistically reimagined by Music & Light Studio | Surface refinishing, deep navy enamel coating, overlay of original engineering drawings (exploded view and tonearm schematics) | A self-referential design where the machine carries its own blueprint — turning function into form, and drawing into sound. | |
| Graffiti | Garrard D 20 (UK, 1982) | Restored, hand-painted, and reassembled by Music & Light Studio | Surface restoration, manual graphic artwork by Isidora Vukovic (IV), Flatbed printed, matte finish coating. | The urban pulse meets vintage tone — spontaneous street art energy layered over British engineering heritage. | User manual PDF |
| Green Lightning | Sharp RP-1122H (Japan, c. 1978) | Restored and customized by Music & Light Studio | Matte-gloss contrast finishing, translucent green headshell, crystal acrylic slipmat with green inlays. | A kinetic interpretation of rhythm — where electricity becomes motion, and light becomes sound. | |
| Galaxy | Micro Seiki MB-15 (Japan, c. 1980), Schneider Team 6010 P | Restored, artistically reimagined, illuminated, and reassembled | Flatbed UV printing with galactic motif, silent belt drive, integrated tonearm lighting system, internal LED with auto-trigger on tonearm movement. | A cosmic rotation — each record an orbit of light and reflection, transforming the listening act into a celestial experience. | M&L Technical specs and manual |
| Midnight | Philips FP 140A (Netherlands 1985) | Restored, engraved and illuminated by Music & Light Studio | Dark gray acrylic casing that glows white when lit, integrated LED system with 150+ light patterns, preamp and Bluetooth module, engraved inscriptions: “Feel the beat # Light the night” and “Spin the light, hear the magic”. | Light within darkness — a monochrome performance that reveals harmony between silence, reflection, and motion. | M&L Technical specs and manual |
| Stellar | Philips FP 140 (Netherlands 1983) | Restored, engraved and illuminated by Music & Light Studio | Etched constellations on dark gray acrylic casing, full-spectrum LED system with 200+ color patterns, preamp and Bluetooth upgrade, engraved text: “Feel the beat, shine the night” and “Spin the light, listen to the magic”. | A luminous constellation — sound translated into color, vibration transformed into a living aurora. | M&L Technical specs and manual |
| Reflector | Philips F 7130 (Netherlands 1984) | Restored and re-engineered by Music & Light Studio | Metallic mirror finish in multicolor variants (silver, blue, red), circular LED ring along the platter edge with reactive illumination, mechanical calibration. | A mirror that listens — reflecting not only its own light, but the rhythm of everything around it. |
