Welcome to the Vinyl Room!

In a world where music has become a cheap commodity, vinyl reconnects us with what really matters

Music can be therapeutic. Cathartic. Transformative. And the best way to establish a meaningful connection with the artists and songs that have spoken to us in a meaningful way is by taking a record out its jacket, placing it on your turntable, dropping the stylus, and letting the magic speak for itself.

More than just a format, vinyl is a way of life

Have you been collecting records for a while but need some guidance to assess the value of your collection? Do you often wonder why some records sound better than others? Or are you completely new to vinyl and don’t know where to start?

No matter where you are in your vinyl journey, I will help you make informed decisions so you can enjoy your music at its best, get your hands on the best version of an album you want, and unlock the full potential of your record collection. 

More importantly, I will help you reconnect with your favourite music in the way the artist intended.

A bit about me

My name is Andres (friends call me Andy) and I have been collecting records in various formats since the age of nine. I’m passionate about vinyl because it undoubtedly provides the most immersive listening experience you can enjoy from the comfort of your home. 

When not listening to vinyl in my home in London, you will find me singing my heart out to soul, blues and R&B tunes, or travelling around the world to dig the crates of record stores and discover new cultures.
