ice records
Very limited edition records pressed on ice | |
A record made out of ice, basically. It's so exclusive, and limited-edition, that it has to be delivered to your home in liquid nitrogen. Unless you have a specially designed chilled turntable, you really only get a fraction of a listen at best. Once it's gone, you likely can't play much else on your
turntable unless you source a replacement motor.

Potential for security applications. Power cuts off, data is gone, guaranteed. |

Bands whose music would perhaps benefit from this medium: Icicle Works, Coldplay, The Chills, Icehouse, Snow Patrol, Subzero. |

Hardly "widely known to exist" but nevertheless already in existence. |
