Dig Deep

On February 20th and 21st, we will be hosting Dig Deep, a charity record fair and two-day hangout together with Resident Advisor. Alongside the pop-up record fair join us for DJ sets from our stations residents, highlighting some of the donor labels and records available, as well as RA UNLOCKED: Labels—a series of talks offering a behind-the-scenes look into working in the music industry. The programme will feature discussions and radio broadcasts focusing on how to start your own independent label and working in the industry.

Confirmed label donors include OYE Records, BBE, Field Records, !K7, Four Tet, Juno Records, Melodies International, Kynant Records, Clone Records, Rubadub and over 150 more that will be announced in the coming weeks.

We’ve partnered with the Analogue Foundation and Audio-Technica, with Audio-Technica providing the listening stations. All proceeds will go to War Child, a charity supporting children impacted by conflict and displacement. Entry to Dig Deep Berlin is free, with talks starting at 13:30 on the Saturday (21st), and the record fair open from 11:00 to 20:00 on both days. Previous editions of Dig Deep have taken place in cities such as London, Leeds and Amsterdam, and the initiative has raised over £35,000 for War Child. We're partnering with DHL for the donation process, with the firm offering free shipping. If you'd like to donate, you can do so here.
