AFRO BEAST


Dance Party and Vinyl Pop-up

Enjoy Afrocentric gems across generations and genres with your selectors, DuiJi 13 and Courtnee Owens. Expect great energy and welcoming vibes in an immersive atmosphere. Vinyl fiends and dance machines unite in celebration of the present while jamming into the future. We will also have a screening of the Vinyl Tap 215 mini documentary, Play Records, Have Fun, Be Family at 9 pm.

There will be vinyl available for sale. We will continue our support of Juntos’ work by donating a portion of the door towards their valuable work.

Courtnee Owens is a Philly-based DJ, photographer, musician, and vinyl collector, always digging and searching for rhythms from every corner. From the listening room to the dancefloor, his sets blend rare groove, jazz funk, electronic, rock and hip hop—sparking old memories while opening new paths for discovery and connection.

Based in Philadelphia, PA, USA, DuiJi has transformed the role of the selector from entertainer to community institution.Whether you need a chill vibe, or floor filling bangers, DuiJi has the right tune for you. Founder of Vinyl Tap 215, an ecosystem of music aficionados who share resources and show up for one another selflessly, his leadership has had a profound impact on the greater Philadelphia vinyl community.
