With our eyes set on unearthing the freshest flavours from unexpected places, we widen our scope with hand-picked musical gems from all across Asia. As Asia's leading online retailer and distributor of musical instruments, Swee Lee has taken a step further to spread their wings by selling vinyl records. Swee Lee CEO, Kwok Meng Ru, joins us on the show to tell us why. We also speak to Arin Sharnaz from Sifters Asia to find out more about her record store with a history that made Sifters a household name among diehard Oasis fans.
