Music moves

The upcoming event in Chengdu was supposed to be held in April, which was postponed due to the pandemic.

This will be the fourth Record Store Day celebration hosted by Chengdu-based music label, New Noise, which will be held at the Yard Cultural and Creative Park, an incubator for small businesses in Chengdu.

According to Jef Vreys, owner and founder of New Noise, who is from Belgium and has been living in Chengdu since 2009, the Record Store Day event grew out of a small event, with around 100 people attending, into a yearly event where more than 1,000 people participate.

Around 40 independent records stores from all over China participate, which makes the event one of the country's biggest vinyl events and the event is growing, Vreys says.
