Vinyl Bitch X Secret 7” Record Swap

Vinyl Bitch is co-hosting a record swap throughout the evening, with Universal Music Records kickstarting the exchange by providing 20 records to get things rolling.

The record swap is a moment where people can come together to share their love and knowledge of music. Every record tells a story and previously loved records have a life of their own. Bring along your records and find new ones to add to your collection.

Vinyl Bitch Open Deck Sessions

Vinyl Bitch has curated an open deck lineup, featuring three incredible DJs, keeping the energy high and the vibes going

Private Press X Yinka Ilori: Screen Printing Workshop (Drop In)

Get hands-on with live screen printing, using a stunning bespoke Yinka Ilori x Secret 7” etching to create a vinyl-inspired print. The same etching is on all Secret 7” records and it is a perfect keepsake from the night!

MADDØG (DJ Set)  

MADDØG, a renowned DJ and Music Producer hailing from the United States, has shared stages with icons like Kesha, Betty Who, and Big Freedia. Beyond her musical prowess, she's a social visionary committed to fostering inclusivity in the music realm. 

Inspired by trailblazing women like Madonna and Janet Jackson, MADDØG fearlessly navigates the male-dominated electronic music landscape, crafting performances that break barriers and champion the rightful place of women in the industry. Her dedication transforms stages into sanctuaries of inclusivity and celebration, pioneering change with every beat.

Pri (DJ Set)

Pri’s sets are shaped as much by dancefloors as they are by conversation — tips from Uber drivers, tunes swapped in smoking areas, and deep chats with locals around the world. Sounds which wouldn’t be out of place in a Jazz, Funk or Disco set - his approach to music discovery is rooted in community, curiosity, and a love for the unexpected. At a time when the world feels more divided than ever, his passion — both behind the decks and on social media— is to make the world feel smaller, one track at a time.

Whether you’re searching for records, printing your own artwork, or soaking in the sounds of DJs, For the Love of Vinyl promises an unforgettable night of music, art, and community. Don’t miss your chance to be part of it!

nikhil (Live)

With a passion for crafting genre-defying music, nikhil orchestrates a sound that can only be created in the unique and personal space of his DIY studio. Here, he redefines contemporary alternative indie RnB, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences that span from Alt rock to soulful jazz.
