Abstract.Documentation of musical works in Indonesia has never been noticed by stakeholders (government) from the past to the present. The absence of agencies related to documenting Indonesian music works has caused the young generation to never know good quality domestic children's music. In the past music works were first produced in the form of vinyl or in Indonesia called “Piringan Hitam / PH”, then tapes, and finally on CD (Compact Disc). At the level of music lovers or collectors, Indonesian Music vinyl is the most sought-after music artifact, of high value due to the scarcity of its production. It is “interesting to look at the beauty of the style of vinyl records in the early recording industry in Indonesia at that time.
