The Backstage Pass

All three boxes contain four vinyl records, but the curation and included extras vary by price point. The Backstage Pass (£29) mixes classic albums with easy-listening favourites, ideal for building a collection affordably. The Headliner (£39) focuses on well-known artists and essential albums that every collector should own. The Collectors Cut (£49) leans into deep cuts, rarities and cult classics for those chasing something more unexpected.

Most records are pre-owned and graded VG+ or better, with every LP cleaned and checked before dispatch to ensure good playback. Sleeves can sometimes show a bit more wear than the vinyl itself, particularly on rarer or more collectible pressings. If a record ever arrives below the expected condition or doesn't play properly, it will be replaced or refunded.

No — that's the fun of it. Each box is a genuine surprise, hand-picked by the curators from a mix of vintage and modern collections. You can, however, mention your favourite genres or artists when ordering, and the team will factor this into your selection.

Orders are shipped free of charge via Royal Mail 48 Hour Tracked, so every parcel comes with tracking as standard. Once your box is dispatched, it should arrive safely and ready to play, packaged with the unboxing experience in mind.

In a world dominated by algorithms and digital playlists, we missed the ritual of vinyl. The weight of the sleeve, the artwork you can get lost in, and that first needle drop that changes the room. For us, music feels more meaningful when it has history.

We don’t work with bulk wholesale pallets. Every record in our mystery boxes is hand-selected from a private archive of thousands of vintage pressings and carefully chosen new releases. Our collection has been built over decades of digging, listening, and collecting.

We believe a mystery box should be a discovery, not a gamble. That’s why we source from specialist vinyl auctions and exclusive private collections, focusing on well-preserved archives and rare pressings. Every box is VG or better, balanced, and curated by collectors who understand what makes a record worth owning.
