BAD RECORD CLUB invites you to lambaste (or defend) albums that have been universally discarded at Goodwill or consigned to dollar bins. Each gathering puts a notoriously maligned record on trial, exploring how it came to be, why it was so thoroughly reviled, and whether the music, decades after its release, still warrants its damning reputation.
No registration required.
‘Low kick and hard bop’
Discuss Low Kick and Hard Bop, the 2001 album by Dutch DJ and record shop owner Solex. Built from samples of unlikely and often kitschy records pulled from her own shop, the album assembles fragments of pop, jazz, rock, and obscurities into an idiosyncratic strain of lo-fi electronica.
Join us to consider an album that turns the overlooked and unfashionable into something entirely its own.
