The Police

Zenyatta Mondatta

1980 · A&M Records · Rock · New Wave · Vinyl

Reggae upstrokes wound tight as a spring — bright, nervy, three minutes of hooks and unease.

Pairs with Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve — rum-cask Speyside: island warmth over a Highland spine, the same trick the record pulls.

Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 cover

Calvin Harris

Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1

2017 · Columbia · Electronic · Dance-pop · Vinyl

Golden-hour, top-down funk. The feature list reads like a guest book and the mood never breaks a sweat.

Pairs with Bacardí Gold, tall over ice — bright and citrus, built for the poolside it's describing.

Loose cover

Nelly Furtado

Loose

2023 · Geffen Records · Hip Hop · Latin · Vinyl

Timbaland at full throttle — percussive, flirtatious, built for a dark room and a low ceiling.

Pairs with Santo Padre Mezcal — agave smoke with a flirtatious edge; the dark room, poured.

Greatest Hits cover

Earth, Wind & Fire

Greatest Hits

2024 · Music On Vinyl · Funk / Soul · Soul · Vinyl

The brass section as a state of mind. Pure warmth, zero cynicism, 'September' on demand.

Pairs with Kanosuke single malt — sherry-cask richness and dark fruit; the brass section in a glass.

Voulez-Vous cover

ABBA

Voulez-Vous

1979 · Atlantic · Pop · Europop · Vinyl

1979 at its most chrome-plated — Miami-cut Euro-disco, every hook lacquered to a shine.

Pairs with Bacardí Reserva Ocho, chilled — eight years of oak and dried fruit; disco glamour with some age on it.

Doom (Original Game Soundtrack) cover

Mick Gordon

Doom (Original Game Soundtrack)

2018 · Laced Records · Electronic · Rock · Vinyl

Two cuts, by special request: 'Rip & Tear' and 'BFG Division.' Mick Gordon's industrial sledgehammer — djent, distortion, a chainsaw idling under everything. Not the room's vibe; entirely one person's.

Pairs with Kavalan Peatist, cask strength — peat smoke over the wreckage. Meet volume with volume.

Clarity cover

Zedd

Clarity

2013 · Interscope Records · Electronic · Pop · Vinyl

2012 big-room euphoria — every build engineered for the drop, every drop engineered for the rafters.

Pairs with Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve, long over ice — sweet, cold, propulsive; keeps pace with the build.

Random Access Memories (10th Anniversary Edition) cover

Daft Punk

Random Access Memories (10th Anniversary Edition)

2023 · Columbia · Electronic · Funk / Soul · Vinyl

Analog disco rebuilt by hand — warm, luxurious, late-night, quietly nostalgic for a future that never arrived.

Pairs with Kanosuke, neat — the most meticulous record on the table earns the most refined pour.

Hotel California cover

Eagles

Hotel California

Asylum Records · Rock · Classic Rock · Vinyl

Sun-baked California gold with a shadow underneath — languid, gorgeous, faintly unable to leave.

Pairs with Fove dark rum, neat — molasses warmth with a dark undertow to match.
