Oasis are back!


We're feeling "Supersonic" about this special Oasis release - available for the very first time with remastered audio on four coloured LPs. Former Record Store Day ambassador Noel Gallagher has long championed the importance of record shops, saying:


“Record shops were really important when I was growing up. It’s something that’s in my DNA. I think if we can keep record shops open for as long as possible, we owe it to the young people of this country.” 


Joining the lineup, Liam Gallagher also brings a special release for fans this Record Store Day -Acoustic Sessions - eight acoustic tracks, pressed on vinyl for the very first time!



Taylor Swift 


Swifties rejoice! Taylor Swift makes a return to Record Store Day with an exclusive 7" white vinyl of the viral “Fortnight” taken from Taylor Swift’s Grammy Nominated Album of the Year, The Tortured Poets Department. 


This is the first time “Fortnight [BLOND:ISH Remix]” will be available on vinyl. You don't wanna miss it!

"For Record Store Day this year in April, we are gonna continue the IRL vinyl series by printing the the Actual Life Piano Lives to vinyl for the first time. This vinyl series is always gonna be limited pressings of live moments that felt particularly special and these are some of my favourite things we’ve done.


Buttttt we only ever made the piano lives for AL2 and AL3 and so many of you were asking for AL1, so 4 years after the original Actual Life album came out on Record Store Day in 2021, I’ve recorded the actual life 1 piano live a few weeks ago. We are working wit Vinyl Factory (who did all the other IRL vinyl) to produce something really special. The record will be available on 12th April for record store day in all the stores taking part.”


Also celebrating Record Store Day, get ready for titles from the likes of Beabadoobee, Charli XCX, Rachel Chinouriri, Confidence Man, The Cure, English Teacher, Michael Kiwanuka and RSD25 Ambassador Sam Fender. Also joining the lineup, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Lil Uzi Vert, Megan Thee Stallion, MJ Lenderman, and Post Malone will be releasing titles for music-lovers all over the UK.
