Somebody is almost certainly working on a "vinyl" sound out of digital. That part is, to my engineering mind, approachable, esp. if vinyl is still around to study.
What may be more obscure is replicating the mixing technique of the time when recording anew, for groups who never recorded on vinyl.
I know enough about signal processing to assert the former, but not enough about studio recording to be confident of the latter. Maybe it's not a problem at all.
