Client: Slovenly Recordings
Industry: Independent record label / vinyl retail
Platform: Magento 1
Integration: Unleashed Software ERP
Timeline: 5 days
Goal: Replace broken ERP connector before operational deadline
Slovenly Recordings is an independent record label and online store based in Dallastown, Pennsylvania. They sell vinyl records, CDs, and merchandise – specializing in punk, garage rock, and rare reissues that collectors hunt for worldwide. Small team, passionate community, global reach.
Their Magento 1 store is the heartbeat of their business. Dozens of orders are processed through it every day.
Slovenly had been running a critical integration between their Magento 1 store and Unleashed Software – a cloud-based inventory and order management platform they relied on to track stock, sync orders, and manage fulfilment.
Then Unleashed Software announced they were ending support for their Magento 1 connector.
Without the integration, orders would stop syncing. Inventory would go out of control. Fulfilment would break down. For a store shipping vinyl to customers around the world, this wasn’t a minor inconvenience – it was a direct threat to their operations.
The deadline: 5 days.
By the time Slovenly reached out to us, they had already contacted other Magento development teams. The answer was the same everywhere: Magento 1 is outdated, the timeline is impossible, we can’t help.
We said yes.
We got to work immediately and built a custom Magento 1 module from scratch over 5 days.
Slovenly’s store kept running without interruption. Their customers noticed nothing. Dozens of orders continued to be processed daily – exactly as before, with a new custom-built integration underneath.
The client was relieved. And frankly, so were we – not because it was hard, but because it mattered.
Magento 1 reached official end-of-life in 2020. Most development teams stopped supporting it.
But thousands of stores are still running on it – and still need things built, fixed, and integrated. When a third-party tool changes, when something breaks, when a deadline appears out of nowhere, those businesses need someone who actually knows the platform.
We’ve been working with Magento 1 since the beginning. We maintain complex codebases, build custom modules, and handle integrations that other teams won’t touch.
If you’re on Magento 1 and need something built or fixed – even on a tight timeline – we’re here when others say no.
