The Listening Room Event #8 - Sault Chapter 1

The Listening Room Event #8 - Sault Chapter 1

The Group:

Sault are a prolific British music group that make a mixture of R&B, urban contemporary gospel, house and disco.   Producer & songwriter Inflo is widely understood to be the central force behind the group.  He's known for shaping some of the most distinctive soul and alternative music of the past decade for Little Simz, Michael Kiwanuka & Cleo Sol.

The LP:

With many albums under their belt, Chapter 1 released on Friday and is set to be another timeless classic from this collective. Their records are typically produced as limited run presses and can be hard to get after the initial release.

With minimal public presence, Sault let the music speak — raw, urgent, and contemporary. True to form, Chapter 1 arrives with minimal announcement but maximum intent. Another bold statement from a group that continues to move in its own lane. This latest instalment yet again features contributions from R&B singer Cleo Sol, known for her soft, rich, soulful voice.

Talking about the album the group said “it moves with patience and belief. Rhythm, breath, and silence sit side by side, creating a space that is reflective yet charged. There is warmth and expectation. A sense that something is gathering.”


The Event:

We would like to host 16 of you on Wednesday May 27th at 6.30pm when we will dim the lights, even offer you a blackout eye mask and then drop the needle for an incredibly deep listening experience.

Ticket prices are 50% off when bought with the LP.

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".
