10 Must See Tips From Anouk Rijnders (Record Industry)

27 September 2024

Haarlem Vinyl Festival has started - and the programme is packed. Where to start?

Anouk Rijnders from Record Industry, Europe's vinyl pressing plant located in Haarlem, shares her 10 absolute must see tips during the weekend.

"During the festival, I try to visit as many locations, performances, and talks as possible to soak up the atmosphere everywhere. But with over 200 performances and 100 speakers, it is unfortunately impossible to attend everything. However, I would definitely like to share these 10 tips with you; I will certainly be going to these myself."


Billiam and the Split Bills + Achterlicht + Burger Service

"Let's start the festival with some punk at Slachthuis. Three young bands with an enormous amount of energy."

Haarlem Vinyl Festival Opening Set: Lefto Early Bird

"And then, on to Jopenkerk to kick-off the festival in style, for an eclectic DJ set from Lefto, with the audio coming from the beautiful Klipschorn speakers."

"Listening to music in the dark is a special experience on it's own - even more when it's Merol's new album. Note: this session is in Dutch!"

The Art of Listening - Imaginary Soundtracks

"I've known Mark for a long time, he's a brilliant designer but also has a very fine taste for music. He has chosen three themes and movies for which he will create a new soundtrack, live, played from vinyl with soundbites from the movies. A very special experience."

Artist Talk: Joost Swarte

Colin Benders + Anastasia Kristensen & Thrills in +41

"A great way to end the Saturday: beats by Mr Modular, a.k.a. Colin Benders."

"Axel Flovent's music is present in many of my Spotify lists - sorry, there is not only vinyl at my house. This is a great chance to see and listen to him live!"
