Listen & Digest Pres. Vinyl F1RST Thursday w/ Vinny Da Vinci 04.06.2026

The energy reached a fever pitch for this special edition of Listen & Digest as the undisputed godfather of South African deep house, Vinny Da Vinci, took to the decks at the Protea Hotel Fire & Ice!. Passing through as part of his highly anticipated birthday tour, the industry pioneer gave the crowd a masterclass in the art of the groove. Vinny delivered an authoritative, vinyl-only set dripping with nostalgia, rare cuts, and heavy, underground baseline rhythms. The room was absolutely electric, vibrating with the unique analog warmth that only a true veteran can coax from the turntables. It wasn't just a DJ set it was a deeply soulful, milestone celebration of a legend who continues to shape and define the landscape of South African dance music culture.
