Hey NYC, there’s some cool shit going down at one of our favorite record shops on Saturday, which is of course Record Store Day! That’s right, Kim’s Video & Music (even though I’d rename it Kim’s Music & Video) will be offering a ton of Record Store Day exclusive vinyl releases.
Actually, the list is enormous! You can check out all of them by downloading the PDF at Kim’s website, but I’ll rattle off some that stick out to me, for some kind of personal gratification, at the end of this post.
There’s gonna be some live action shaking at Kim’s too from some very cool artists and DJs. Here’s the schedule:
8am – Open
10:30am-12pm – DJ Mush1 (WNYU Tunnel One Reggae Show)
12pm-3pm – New Afternoon Show DJs (WNYU)
3pm-4pm – X-ray Eyeballs DJ set (OJ)
4pm-5pm – Prince Rama DJ set (Taraka)
5pm – Mike Wexler (Mexican Summer) (dig his recent EVR performance here)
6pm – Woodsman (Mexican Summer/Lefse/Fire Talk) (dig their recent EVR performance here)
