There is a growing vinyl culture and the shop plays a vital role in the presevation of African music including genres like Benga, Rhumba and Taarab along with classic records from the golden era of vinyl from the 1960's to the 1980's. You might be lucky to partake in a pop-up event or festival in collaboration with the Nairobi Soul Club.
