DIGGERS FACTORY is getting ready for RECORD STORE DAY!

DIGGERS FACTORY is getting ready for RECORD STORE DAY!

May 12, 2021

Vinyl is back… Despite a production slowdown caused by the unforeseeable pandemic, the vinyl industry grew 10.2% in 2020 (SNEP). In the US, vinyl record sales were up 46% in 2020 compared to 2019 (Statista). In the UK, 18% of all albums bought were vinyl records (Far Out). Records have become objects that we want to collect and pamper, so much so that record shops have been labelled as "essential trade". A small victory for the world of culture and music.

This year, Record Store Day is celebrated on June 12. Diggers Factory presents 14 original editions with colored records, limited editions pressings, sublime restored and original sleeves, and flawless remastered sounds ..., proving once again our dedication to records and vinyl lovers

Let's continue on with the French cult soundtracks with Les Gendarme de St Tropez de Raymond Lefèvre

Released in 1964, the soundtrack of "The Gendarme of Saint-Tropez" was written by Raymond Lefèvre, composer of numerous film scores that are now considered "classics". From "La Marche des Gendarmes" to the theme of "La Soupe aux choux", he signed the soundtracks of nine films with Louis de Funès in the credits.

Let’s modernize the classics with Girls and Boys by Nouvelle Vague

25 years after the hit of Blur, interpreted by Mélanie Pain and Olivier Libaux on guitar, the theme has not aged a bit. Embrace the re-interpretation and unpublished acoustic songs.

Let’s change the vibe with Cubafrica by Manu Dibango

When Manu Dibango meets the members of Buena Vista Social Club in Cuba, it is a musical effervescence. CubAfrica is an enticing tour through the garden of Latin standards with hints of Creole.

Let’s stay in Latin America with Tropical Gypsy by DJ Cam

The French Touch is back! Tropical Gypsy was composed and recorded between Tulum and Paros, and it will make you dance all summer long.

After more than 20 years on the music scene, DJ CAM releases his first Best Of at the peak of his career. DJ CAM was part of the "French Touch’s" avant-garde alongside Daft Punk, Air and Bob Sinclar.
