About Modern-Day Culture : Record Bar

Perched four flights above Ekkamai, this audiophile retreat trades club decibels for rich analog groove. Turntables spin rare grooves and 80s and 90s hip-hop singles dialed specifically to conversational volume—loud enough to feel the bass, calm enough to speak without straining. Regulars skip fixed drink lists entirely. Instead, call out two flavor keywords like acidic, spicy, or refreshing, and the bar builds a bespoke pour on the spot. Space fits barely twenty stools, and the warm welcome ensures solo listeners feel right at home at the counter.

  • Audiophile Soundscape: DJs spin analog 80s and 90s hip-hop, soul, and 7-inch singles balanced for relaxed, unforced conversation.
  • Bespoke Keyword Mixology: Skip rigid drink lists by selecting flavor keywords for bartenders to improvise a custom creation on demand.
  • Snug Fourth-Floor Escape: A snug fourth-floor lounge accommodating around twenty guests with genuine, attentive hospitality.

Before you head over

Practical advice on finding the venue, navigating seating, and ordering custom drinks

  • Prepare for the 4-Floor Walk-Up

    The venue is located on the 4th floor of a building with no elevator and tricky stairs. Look for the hemp shop logo on the ground floor and use the handrails as you climb.

  • Plan Around Cozy Seating Capacity

    With tight seating for roughly 20 people around the bar and DJ area, space fills quickly. Arrive early or plan your timing carefully to secure a spot without waiting.

  • Order Custom Keyword Cocktails

    If you are unsure what to drink or prefer non-alcoholic mocktails, pick two flavor keywords from the menu for the bartenders to craft a custom drink on demand.
