On Record was a listening, performance and exhibition space celebrating vinyl, homemade sounds and the pace, mood and painstaking editing process of the mixtape. We invited artists working with sound, performance and words to experiment with compilation and sampling with a DIY approach.
On Record was a social space for shared listening, as well as somewhere to flick through zines, lyric sheets and artist records. Throughout the week, we invited the public to share and play their records, flexi-discs and collections.
Cardiff Contemporary is a Cardiff Council initiative co-funded by the Arts Council of Wales, developed in partnership with Cardiff’s visual art, design and architecture communities.
