Drop the needle, tune in and turn it up. Needle Drop is a collective vinyl listening series hosted in the gallery of Beyond the Beat: Music of Resistance and Change.
Each session features records spun by special guests, followed by open dialogue on the social and political movements that shaped - and were shaped by - the music. Whether it's protest anthems, underground grooves or revolutionary rhythms, we'll gather to listen deeply and talk boldly about the soundtracks of change.
Come to vibe, reflect and join the conversation.
This evening of Needle Drop dives into the raw energy of early punk, with a curated selection from Jason Flower - music archivist, collector and founder of Supreme Echo Records - and special guest Steve Bailey, founding member of Victoria hardcore pioneers NEOS.
