The Listening Room Event #6 - The Dark Side of the Moon

THIS IS NOW SOLD OUT!  THANKS SO MUCH TO EVERYONE FOR BUYING TICKETS.   KEEP AN EYE ON OUR NEWSLETTERS FOR DETAILS OF UPCOMING EVENTS.  

The LP:

One of the best-selling and most critically acclaimed albums of all time.   Originally released in 1973, The Dark Side Of The Moon became Pink Floyd's first number one album in the USA, remaining on the chart for 741 weeks between 1973 and 1988.

Beyond it's success in numbers, it's a richly layered, immersive record that blends progressive rock, jazz influences and early electronic experimentation into a seamless cinematic whole.   Built around tape loops, analogue synthesisers, spoken work snippets and meticulous multi-track recording, the album flows continuously with each track blending into the next.

It's not just an album, but a masterclass in analogue recording and sonic depth.

50th anniversary edition.

What To Expect On The Night?

Expect an evening of familiar faces gathering together to share in the joy of quality music discovery! Specifically, we will (re)open the shop doors at 6.30pm to welcome you in and give you all the chance to grab a drink and settle.

At 6.45pm we will introduce the album, then turn the lights down, offer you an eye mask and invite complete silence in advance of dropping the needle to give you the opportunity to disappear into the music. The evening will then last for as long as the album!

What Is The Listening Room?

The Listening Room is a dedicated space, created in collaboration with our friends at Audio Note, designed for anyone who wants to experience music at its very best. Built around creativity, flexibility, and community, it offers a calm, welcoming environment where you can slow down, sink in, and truly listen.

The room is equipped with some of Audio Note’s finest components, including their AN-E SPe HE speakers, the Meishu Tonmeister Phono 300b valve amplifier, and the TT3 record player. The result is an intimate, immersive listening experience unlike anything else.

The Listening Room is more than a space, it’s a celebration of great sound, great records, and the joy of discovering music together.

What Others Say About These Nights...

"Capsule Records continue to bring great music both familiar and not so familiar to the good people of Brighton & Hove (and beyond) via their listening experience evenings with the finest sound system it has been my pleasure to enjoy. Each selection is carefully thought about and listened to in advance to ensure those attending will have the optimal enjoyment on the night It has led to me viewing my own music collection in a fresh light with renewed enthusiasm and an appreciation for the input of those involved in the whole process'. Keith

"Thanks all for a wonderful evening. A profoundly moving and uplifting experience. To be transported into the studio, through such incredible audio and immersed in the sound from such great musicians. What a joy! Will be back for more". Nick

"In the dark, with a full house, we listened to each track in remarkable clarity. The double bass was wonderfully prominent, the drums had incredible precision, and the vocals of Fontella Bass and Roots Manuva (in particular) soared above the instrumentation, creating an unforgettable experience".
