Vinyl & scratch sets
Vinyl & Scratch DJ in London
Vinyl-trained since 1998: original-record sets of soul, funk, disco and 80s classics, and live turntablism for a real showpiece moment.
Records since 1995
A vinyl DJ for parties that deserve the real thing
DJ SR started collecting records in 1995 and learned to mix on turntables in 1998, long before laptops. That foundation still shapes every set, and it is why he can offer something many London DJs can’t: a genuine all-vinyl set from his own collection.
Vinyl sets suit milestone birthdays, 70s and 80s themed parties and relaxed receptions, while a live scratch showcase gives launches and after-parties a moment guests remember.

What a vinyl set sounds like
The collection
Records collected since 1995: 70s and 80s soul, funk and disco, Motown, 90s R&B and hip hop, and UK garage, with original pressings and 12-inch extended mixes.
Full vinyl sets
An evening played entirely on records, ideal for milestone birthdays, 70s and 80s themed parties and relaxed receptions where the sound and the ritual are part of the night.
Scratch showcases
A short burst of live turntablism (cuts, scratches and juggles) as a showpiece at a launch, an awards after-party or a brand activation.
Vinyl plus digital
Many events open on vinyl and move into a full open-format set later, so there’s something for every guest.
