Beirut Groove Collective (BGC) is a collective of DJs and vinyl collectors founded in Beirut in 2009 and now based in London. It is best known for the BGC All-Nighter, a club night dedicated to rare and underground dancefloor records from the 1960s to the 1980s, drawing influences from the SWANA region, Africa and other musical scenes around the world.
Led by Ernesto Chahoud and Natalie Shooter, BGC has earned an international reputation for its adventurous selections and its commitment to showcasing underrepresented musical traditions. Alongside performances at clubs and festivals, the collective is actively involved in archival research, record reissues and curated compilations that highlight the musical history of the SWANA region and its global connections.
