ZAG & SHAQDI (MY ANALOG JOURNAL) 4 HOUR SET // RARE GLOBAL GROOVES


  • Grow 98c Wallis Road London, England, E9 5LN United Kingdom (map)

We welcome the return of the founders of the now seminal rare groove focused Youtube channel My Analog Journal, for a special 4 hour session on Nov 26.

Zag and Shaqdi from MAJ take you on a musical trip dedicated to all the movers and shakers on the dance floor. Expect high-energy grooves, selection of global funk, disco classics as well as lesser-known gems from the early '70a the to early '90s, unshazamable beats and pure positive vibes.

There will be a 3 hour warm up set from a Grow resident DJ.

My Analog Journal’s Youtube channel has over 650k subscribers and regularly hosts sets from guests DJs playing sets focused on niche sounds from around the world such as Brazilian funk, Thai Luk Thung, Soviet jazz, Afro-funk, and Japanese city pop, as well as sets from Zag himself.

Back in 2015, Zag, being passionate about film photography, would go on a lot of trips in the countryside where he would take a lot of pictures using analog cameras. He would then post them on the YouTube and Instagram accounts, called ‘My Analog Journal’. But eventually, by also posting content about music on vinyl; the music content began to gain a lot more traction than analog photography and Zag has focused on the music since to great effect.
