Coincidentally, many other vinyl projects have been and will be released by many famous artists, like a stubborn nostalgia in the digital music age.
Against the flow but in the right direction
The once-popular trend of listening to hi-end music has returned, with a series of vinyl projects - considered a luxury hobby in the digital age that almost wiped out this hobby since the CD was released. At the age of 66, the singer of the Unforgettable Song has just realized her cherished dream: releasing the first vinyl record of her career. "The album Vet roan tram is one of the biggest cherished dreams, after 20 years Cam Van returns to the CD market", the album owner excitedly shared about her fourth Trinh music album.

Released on March 31, 2025, "Vệt cuốn Trầm" was reprinted in Los Angeles (USA) just over 2 weeks later with 500 vinyl records, of which more than 200 were pre-ordered. The veteran singer used "4 very" words to describe her feelings about a product format that is considered picky about buyers in the digital music era: "For Cam Van, this is a very big, very important, very surprising and very happy gift! At first, we decided to "do it for passion", burn ourselves out with music so that Cam Van could once overcome her comfort zone. But unexpectedly, before the "G hour", the publisher announced that all the records were sold out before the official release date. I was extremely happy, for me this was a "big deal", when my album was received respectfully and enthusiastically".
"Riding on the momentum", the producer and Cam Van quickly scheduled to continue recording the songs that "nailed" her name, also in vinyl format.
Previously, in March 2023, 1,000 copies of Trinh's music vinyl were released by singer Hong Nhung at a confident price of more than 3 million VND, but still attractive enough for those who always want to know "Who is Bong" . The album was recorded live at the famous La Buissonne studio (France), with the participation of multinational artists. For the first time, Trinh's music was sung in both Vietnamese and French with instrumental music arranged in the style of blues and jazz.
Tung Duong, one of the most innovating singers in Vietnamese showbiz but also very nostalgic, said that next July, he will release a vinyl project called The Voice , with the implication: The most valuable thing on vinyl is to highlight the voice. The album gathers 8 old songs composed before 1975 and was also recorded and produced in the US. "Before The Voice , I also printed and will print the albums Human and Da Vu in vinyl format, but that was just a mechanical conversion from digital to analog so that fans have more choices. But it was not until The Voice that it was truly a true vinyl product, completely with precision right from the recording stage, with the technical standards unique to vinyl," said the singer of Rebirth .
Vinyl records attract young people
Notably, this luxury hobby not only attracts veteran artists but also young singers born in the digital music era. After 8 years of absence from the music scene, the first season runner-up of The Voice 2012 Dinh Huong suddenly returned with the album Black Magic Woman . Notably, this is definitely a vinyl project.
The person who once wanted to "prove her musical excellence" excitedly shared about her bold choice: "When returning to the musical journey, one of Huong's biggest concerns was the desire to revive the physical disc market. With limited strength, Huong chose to focus on Vinyl - a format that fully preserves the artist's quintessence, from the original sound to the artistry of the album. Huong does not expect to be able to change the masses, only hopes that her efforts in improving the quality of the product will inspire many fellow artists. From now on, releasing Vinyl discs is not just a way to fill the collection, but becomes a methodical strategy with high determination, contributing to the revival and promotion of the sustainable development of the Vietnamese music market."
Regarding the audience's reception, veteran singer Cam Van expressed surprise when she noticed that among the audience who ordered the vinyl album " Vet roan tram", there were quite a few young people. "That's a good sign", she commented. "Young audiences who update trends quickly will notice that in the world , their idols like Taylor Swift, Adele, BTS... have also released albums in Vinyl format. They have been familiar with vinyl records since then and can also recognize the difference between the experience of listening to music played from a turntable and digital platforms. In addition, people buy vinyl records not only to listen to them, but also to keep them as souvenirs and "look" at them with a solemnly designed cover...", the singer of "Bai ca khong quen hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau hau.
