Couldn't load pickup availability
A neon-lit journey through South-East Asia’s forgotten dancefloors.
Ayo Ke Disco (“Let’s go to the disco” in Malay/Indonesian) is a glittering time capsule of boogie, funk, psychedelic grooves, synth-pop and Hindustani-Arabic fusion sounds from 1974 to 1988 — lovingly curated by Soundway Records' Alice Whittington (aka DJ Norsicaa). Digging deep into her personal archive and uncovering gems from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong and the Philippines, Whittington presents 10 tracks that capture the energy, experimentation, and optimism of a post-colonial generation finding new ways to groove.
This compilation is more than just music — it’s a cultural document. The vinyl release includes a gorgeously assembled gatefold with liner notes that dive deep into the region’s music history, filled with archival photos and reflections on censorship, identity, and the legacy of independence.
Whether you're a seasoned collector of global grooves or simply chasing a rare dancefloor mood, Ayo Ke Disco is an essential listen — joyful, strange, subversive, and irresistibly funky.

Shipping FAQ
**Heads-up for our U.S. customers:
The new U.S. executive order effective August 29, 2025 ends the de minimis duty-free exemption (under $800) for most goods. But—good news—this does not apply to music and informational media like vinyl, CDs, tapes, cassettes, posters, and more, which remain exempt thanks to longstanding U.S. law (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(3)).
So when you order from us, your favorite records and media stay tariff-safe, just as they always have.

Condition/Grading FAQ
We follow the Goldmine standard (S / M / NM / VG+ / VG / etc.) and grade both the vinyl and the sleeve separately when necessary. We visually inspect every record and play-grade whenever there’s doubt.
What do the grades mean?
- S (Sealed): The record is sealed and has never been played.
- M (Mint): The record is like new, with no visible light scratches or cracks. Sleeve is in pristine condition, like new.
- NM (Near Mint): Vinyl looks and plays almost like new. Cover is free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind.
- VG+ (Very Good Plus: Vinyl has a few light marks, maybe some light background noise. Cover shows only very minor seam wear or a split.
- VG (Very Good); Vinyl has noticeable wear, but still plays through without skips. Cover shows signs of human handling (ring wear, creases, seam splitting, writing or markings from a price tag).
If necessary, more detailed condition notes are included on each product page.
