POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Year 1 is officially in the books. 40 sessions, lots of laughs, endless knowledge, and a community built right out of the back of Play De Record ❤️

Massive thank you to every single DJ who stepped up to the decks, dropped their guard, and shared their passion with us this past year. And to every single one of you watching, listening, and supporting from day one—none of this exists without the artists and the community following the journey.

Music has no barriers, and that’s what this last year really showed us. No matter who, what, where, or when—music will always be the key. Especially to us here at PDR.

As we move into Year 2, PDR is evolving. To keep the quality high and the curation tight while life takes us into new chapters, we are officially shifting to a seasonal format.

Season 1 was legendary. Season 2 is fully locked in and starts dropping sooner than you think. The lineup is something special ☺️

Thank you for rocking with us. We’re just getting started ⚡️💎⚡️

Most collectors know the original Japanese anthem, but very few have ever heard this 1987 Hong Kong pressing. 🇭🇰
.
Fion @sadstab breaks down how she tracked down this Cantonese gem and why it’s a must hear for all music heads. Wait for the needle drop— the production on this version is on another level.
