Satchmi celebrated their special day
with free food, coffee, drinks, alcohol, music, and fun!
It’s no surprise when we saw people pouring in from all
directions to the store. When you step in, it’s as if you’re in another world separated from
the mall itself. There was free food courtesy of Mr. Graham’s Sandwich Shop, their highly talked about Cebuano along
with chips and dip filled everyone’s appetite throughout the event. In
tandem was Mrs. Graham’s macarons straight from her cafe,
specially made for the event complete with vinyl record designs and plating.
Their Apple Pie Soda was also served during the party as well as Craftpoint’s Summer Sessions. All free aside from Satchmi’s esteemed third wave coffee.
People got to experience fun and
games throughout the event like spin the wheel with prizes from Satchmi’s lifestyle brands — Happy Socks, Lost Nomad, Gouache
Bags, The Green House Project, Sunday Paper Co and more, there was also a
sleeve face Photo Booth contest, by the end of the night the most creative photo
got to take home a Motorino Mk II. A Satchmi event wouldn’t be complete without performances from their favorite
artists BP Valenzuela, Reese & Vica, CRWN, and up and coming Coeli. Chip
Balbuena — a comedian from Comedy Cartel’s line up was also their to provide some laughs for the
night.
The main event was when Satchmi
released a video showcasing what was next for them this year. Some of the
things announced were that they are opening a 2nd branch in Quezon City (exact
location still top secret) early 2016, the Motorino Mk II now comes in the new
color Silver bidding goodbye to the Ivory model, a new Satchmi Blend of beans
exclusive from EDSA Beverage Design Studio coming soon to the store and most
importantly, a new vinyl compilation that is composed of some of their
favourite performers from Vinyl Day 2013 to 2015. Some of the artists include
Autotelic, Oh, Flamingo!, BP x CRWN collab, Tandems ’91, She’s Only Sixteen, Reese & Vica,
Imago, Taken by Cars, and more! A total of 12 tracks for a vinyl produced and
manufactured entirely by Satchmi. The vinyl, entitled “General Assembly” (and
rightly so) will be released sometime in 2016.
“It definitely is hard to believe how far we’ve come”
says Edric Chua, co-founder of
Satchmi. “When we started out with just a couple of records and an
online store, we always used to talk about opening a brick and mortar store
until eventually the opportunity presented itself to us and we took it.” he adds. “From an online store to an actual physical store, and now
we are not only distributors but producers and manufacturers of actual vinyl
records— for a couple of vinyl enthusiasts, it’s amazing to see how far we’ve come.”
says Aislinn Chuahiock, another
co-founder of Satchmi. When asked what their secret was into getting this far,
Ronald Sy - Managing Director and co-founder of Satchmi simply said “It was really a collaborative effort. Both within the team
and with everyone we’ve ever worked with. Our loyal
customers and everyone who has ever supported us also helped materialize what
we’ve been planning for how many years.”
Satchmi is a music and lifestyle
brand with a love for vinyl records, worldly goods, and everything in between.
