Future Nostalgia is a vinyl-centric musicology collective that facilitates gatherings to share sounds and experience music. Founded by Atiyyah Khan and Grant Jurius in 2013, Future Nostalgia lives through listening and jam sessions hosted in collaboration with live performers and vinyl DJs across venues.

For this event, Jurius, Khan and Orrechia play vinyl sets and share tracks from extensive personal collections. Artists Breeze Yoko, Kemang Wa Lehulere and Maliq Ntone Edjabe make spontaneous contributions alongside the musical performances. These are accompanied by visuals and sounds by Dathini Mzayiya and Thokozani Mthiyane.

Apocalypse Pantry (Zayaan Kahn and Heather Thompson) serve knowledge and nutrition with ‘Concocktails v.002’, a selection of hot and cold drinks made with foraged herbs, spices and fynbos tinctures.
