Help Crowdfund a new Record Shop and Cafe in Birmingham

A crowd funding project called ‘Café Artum’ has started on Kickstarter to create a vibrant creative hub based in the heart of the city centre of Birmingham in one of its most beautiful buildings, a Victorian Grade II listed building in the heart of the city centre.

They are setting up the space to support Birmingham’s flourishing creative community, operating not only as an artisan café but also as a vinyl record shop and art space. They want to bring back the enjoyment of finding new music and reignite the relationship people have with their records and with music in general. The team including well-known DJ’s (Adam Shelton, Alexander Nut), music connoisseurs and serial record collectors want to encourage people to have actual human interaction, where finding music is a discussion and not just a click on YouTube.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
