Recording service needed

Hi there, I'm a musician from spain and after all my experiments with my "Airline" cutting lathe (Recordio type cutter) I decided I had enough.

I recorded some songs (digitally) and I would like them cut to disc using a Presto, or Rek-o-kut, magnetic type recorder.

I'm trying to find someone who owns an operative cutting lathe to do this for me.

I'm lookin for someone who offers this service. I would pay for the recording work and the discs used.

preferably europe. but It's ok with u.s too

Thanks :D

I am specially interested in the texture of the sound. That's why I want the songs in that format.

I'm lookin' for not too clean, not too distorted, somethin' in between.

Like the old 20's, 30's shellac blues records (I know it's hard to get this sound specially because there's no shellac anymore).

Like the guys on (http://the78project.com)

I want this to sound old but clean. (no fff or background noises etc...)


I heard some records that sounded like almost CD quality, I don't want that...

Who is the one to go for?

Thanks

If you have Instagram I can hook you up with a few examples!otherwise I'm not very tech savvy. However if you want anything over 30 or 40 copies with real sleeves and stuff you gotta go thru Mike. My Instagram is gridlockrules

might as well throw my hat in the ring as well, I do stereo "HIFI" cuts on two vinyl recorders, and the more ubiquitous mono "LOFI" cuts on a presto 6N with Olson cutting head.
audio samples are up here on my site: http://www.audiogeography.com/audiosamples
