Bring back physical media to music- Whims w/ Oh V+ Benji's band

If you have been feeling like music consumption has become a bit too digital lately, there is an event happening at The Pipeline on April 22nd that might catch your interest. The gig, titled 'Bring back physical media to music', is centred around the idea of making music tangible again. It is a fairly straightforward concept: a night of live music featuring Whims, Oh V, and Benji's band, where the focus is as much on the physical items you can take home as it is on the performances themselves.

The evening kicks off at 20:15 at the venue located at 6 Little East Street, Brighton, BN1 1HT. The organisers are aiming to create a space that feels like a 'physical media paradise', which means you can expect to find CDs, business cards, and various pieces of merchandise available for purchase and collection right there on the night. They are also putting effort into the smaller details, such as providing unique tickets for each attendee and using sustainably printed posters, which is a nice touch if you are someone who likes to keep physical mementos from gigs.

Musically, the lineup covers indie, alternative, indie pop, and shoegaze, so it should be a varied set of performances. The event is scheduled to wrap up around 22:15, making it a two-hour window if you are planning your evening around it. Tickets are priced at £3.00, and they are available through platforms like Skiddle and Ticket24/7. It is a low-key way to support local artists while picking up some physical media, which is becoming a bit of a rarity in the current streaming-heavy landscape.
