DJ and producer Seth Troxler is offering €10 per hour to those willing to help him salvage his record collection, which was heavily damaged during a recent storm in Ibiza.
In an Instagram Story – reshared by I’ve Got It On Vinyl – Troxler reveals that of his astonishing 12,000-strong record collection, around 6,000 were submerged underwater.
“I need help from some people in Ibiza,” he says. “Most of my record collection was basically nearly destroyed in the flood.
“I was just with my wife and some people trying to clean them and save stuff, but it’s just too emotional… it’s fucking me up.”
“If you love records and would love to clean an incredible collection and try to save some really beautiful covers, please reach out to me,” he added, urging Ibiza locals to help.
Per Resident Advisor, Seth Troxler currently splits his time between Ibiza and Zurich, and has spent over a decade as a resident DJ at DC-10.
An “extreme” weather alert was issued on 30 September by Ibiza authorities, before the island was hit by severe flooding and torrential rain by Storm Gabrielle.
More recently, Storm Alice caused similar problems, sparking travel chaos as the airport was flooded, with at least 24 flights cancelled in recent days, per The Independent.
