WORKFLOW
Collection brief
Genres, eras and rarity level. Whether the records should feel accessible or specialist. What story the collection tells about the space — hotel, members club or private home.
Scope and budget
Number of records, depth of catalogue, balance between common titles and hard-to-find pieces. A collection scoped to the space and what it needs to say.
The dig
Discogs, independent shops, private collectors and fairs. We do the digging — you get a unique record collection that couldn't be assembled anywhere else.
Grading and quality check
Every record graded for condition before delivery. Only records that meet the standard make it into the collection.
The result
A curated collection with provenance — not a bulk order, not an algorithm
Handwritten listening notes
Each record arrives with notes on the story behind it — the artist, the context, why it's in the collection. So the records aren't just on the shelf, they mean something.
Sommelier-style staff sessions
Training for your team on the collection — what's in it, why it's there, what to play when. So staff can engage guests with the music as confidently as they would the food or wine.
Ongoing collection development
As the space evolves, so can the collection. New additions sourced on request, seasonal refreshes or deeper dives into specific areas of the catalogue.
