Oxfam and Domino have announced that Hot Chip will be continuing their DJ ‘takeover’ of Oxfam shops with a gig in the Oxfam Emporium shop, Oldham Street, Manchester on Saturday 13th October.

The Oxfam shop will give up its floor space to become an exclusive Oxjam shop for a one-off gigs, whilst simultaneously selling great second-hand music and clothing.

The shop will be converted into a mini-music venue, where Hot Chip will be playing exclusive DJ sets from 1.00pm – 3.00pm, for lucky fans who can get to the shop in time to see their heroes spinning vinyl up close and personal.

Following the huge success of the Hot Chip Vinyl Emporium party in London last week, which launched the Oxjam music festival, the band will invite local friends to join them on the decks to spin their favourite records. They will also be spinning some hidden gems they find in the shop before going on to headline at their own sold-out concert in the evening.

The band will also be helping the shop out with some exclusive merchandising by creating some “recommended by Hot Chip” racks of vinyl for fans to pick and choose from and will also be donating some vinyl to the shop from their very own collections.

Joe Goddard from Hot Chip said: “We really enjoyed kicking off the Oxjam festival last week by throwing our own little party and playing some of the quality vinyl found fresh from the shops racks. It’ll be great to be able to do this again in Manchester and Glasgow, so we want to encourage as many people as possible to come down and join the party.”

Andrew Horton, Director of Trading said: “Sales of second hand music in our shops has been steadily growing, as we are increasingly seen as a destination of choice for uncovering rare and valuable vinyl. So we’re really pleased that Hot Chip are echoing this with these exclusive Vinyl Emporium parties. Donations are the lifeblood of Oxfam shops and so we would encourage anyone planning on coming down to dig out their unused records which can then be sold to support our work worldwide.”
