Skratch Bastid x OBEY: Serato Control Vinyl
Serato’s latest Control Vinyl is here, and it’s a drop worth talking about.
Teaming up with the world-renowned battle DJ Skratch Bastid, and streetwear powerhouse OBEY, we’ve created a one-time Control Vinyl release that sits at the crossroads of streetwear, DJ culture and music innovation. The vinyl is primed for battle on the turntables, and destined to be a coveted collector’s piece on your shelf.
Dropping in bold “hot sauce” orange, this limited-edition 2×12” set is Serato’s first official Lightweight Performance CV, tuned for fast hands and sharper scratches.
OBEY the Skratch.
Engineered to Move – Lightweight Performance Vinyl
When we began this collaboration with Skratch Bastid, we listened to what mattered most to him – he wanted a record that felt responsive & light.
Taking inspiration from the Japanese-style lightweight pressings favored by performance DJs, we worked closely with Erika Records to engineer a custom formula — a 126–130g vinyl that delivers agility without compromise.
Where our standard records weigh around 140g, this pressing is designed to perform — offering that effortless slip, touch, and control that Bastid values. It’s not just lighter; it’s tuned for movement.
Each jacket carries a special edition sticker calling out its lighter build, setting it apart from Serato’s standard performance series Control Vinyl.
With Bastid’s high-energy style at its core, OBEY’s unmistakable design on the surface and Serato’s tech legacy running through it, this release is not one to be missed.
Whether you’re cutting it up in battles, stacking rare collabs in your collection, or repping OBEY since day one, this release sits exactly where culture and performance collide. The craft of DJing meets the attitude of streetwear, designed to look as good as it sounds.
Limited quantities available. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
