- Limited run of 61 autographed copies, paired with handmade HDB ceramic toppers

What happened
Nearly 30 years after Kit Chan’s song 'Home' was first released, it has finally been pressed on vinyl for the very first time. The special edition record is shaped like the island of Singapore and comes with a handcrafted ceramic HDB topper made by local artisans. Only 61 copies of this exclusive release exist, each one personally signed by Kit Chan herself.
This unique project was brought to life by Singapore’s Art/st Records, a studio dedicated to custom lathe-cut vinyl releases founded in 2025. They secured the necessary licenses and original master recordings to produce a high-quality vinyl pressing that honors the song's musical and cultural significance.
Why it feels good
For many Singaporeans, 'Home' is more than just a song—it’s a deeply cherished symbol of national identity and pride. Having it on vinyl for the first time connects listeners tangibly to their shared heritage, marking a meaningful moment in preserving local music history.
Additionally, the project highlights collaboration among local creatives—from ceramicists crafting the HDB housings to the woodworkers and illustrators contributing to the packaging and design. This community effort emphasizes the importance of supporting homegrown talents while celebrating a beloved classic.
What to enjoy or watch next
Collectors and fans can pre-order the Singapore-shaped vinyl starting August 9th through Art/st Records’ website. Each set is priced at S$198 and is sure to become a treasured keepsake for both music lovers and memorabilia enthusiasts.
Looking ahead, Art/st Records plans to make this kind of bespoke, locally crafted release an annual tradition for National Day. This new wave of vinyl projects promises to spotlight Singapore’s rich cultural stories and creative talents through innovative formats and collaborative designs.
