ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, July 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Certain albums are crafted for streaming queues. Others are designed to be truly experienced.
During the very first writing sessions for Retro In Real Time, Grammy-nominated producer, artist and songwriter Mali Wilson had a clear vision: an album that would encourage listeners to pause, immerse themselves in the music, and journey through it from start to finish. Blending live instrumentation, classic songwriting, and modern production, the project honors the records that influenced previous generations while staying firmly rooted in today’s sound.
Wilson has now announced a partnership with Crosley Radio to mark the vinyl debut of her first full-length album, Retro In Real Time. This collaboration unites two entities that share a deep respect for craftsmanship, genuine musical encounters, and the lasting charm of vinyl.
For over a century, Crosley has introduced audiences to the vinyl experience through thoughtfully engineered turntables that merge classic aesthetics with contemporary technology. Wilson’s album follows a similar approach musically, paying homage to the traditions of soul, jazz, blues and classic R&B while reinterpreting them through a modern perspective.
“From the beginning, we weren’t chasing nostalgia,” said Wilson. “We wanted to make a record that people would want to come back to years from now. When the conversation turned to vinyl, partnering with Crosley felt completely natural because they understand that listening to music is still an experience.”
Customers who purchase the vinyl version of Retro In Real Time via MaliWilson.com will receive a unique promotional discount code applicable toward the purchase of a Crosley record player.
“The best partnerships aren’t manufactured,” said Eric D. Wilson, Chief Operating Officer of The Retnuh Agency, the firm representing Mali Wilson. “They’re discovered. When we looked at what Retro In Real Time represents and what Crosley has meant to generations of music lovers, the connection was obvious. This isn’t simply about releasing a vinyl record. It’s about reminding people that some experiences are still worth slowing down for.”
The Retro In Real Time vinyl is available now at MaliWilson.com.
Each vinyl purchase also helps support musicians in need and contributes to the ongoing mission of award-winning StoneWood Studios, where artists continue to find a creative space for writing, recording, collaborating and growing.
