Head down to RexKL this weekend for a walk down memory lane with music from nearly 100 years ago. Caleb Goh will be playing a selection of British and American swing and jazz records on two machines: a HMV 31A gramophone built in 1927 in India, and a HMV 101 from 1926 built in the Britain.

Malaysia's "gramophone deejay" is back on the decks, winding up his music machines and taking the whole vinyl revival experience back even further.
