Ahead of Record Store Day on April 20, Crumpler unveils its sophomore collaboration with Melbourne DJ Andee Frost dubbed the Crumpler x Andee Frost Record Bags collection. Defining Melbourne’s hyper-cult rave and club scene, Andee Frost is a luminary force in music and beyond. A regular performer at The House De Frost and IYKYK functions hosted by Animals Dancing, Andee Frost has claimed the stage alongside era-defining performers like Optimo, Horse Meat Disco, Moodymann, DJ Harvey, Andrew Weatherman and many more. Teaming up with the charismatic music lover once more, Crumpler reveals revamped iterations of its OG record bag, including the Tooney Bin and Cosmic Taco, replete with storage solutions fit for the modern vinyl collector and enthusiast.

Third Class and New Guernica, eternally curating disco odysseys for the city’s fashionable night owls. Just as Record Store Day rounds the corner, Crumpler and Frost debut the Tooney Bin — ideal for housing up to 70 12-inch records and DJ equipment — and the Cosmic Taco — a smaller version that can house 35 7-inch vinyl. Both styles arrive in a vibrant colorblocked construction and a chic, all-black colorway. Fashioned with various compartments, the collection maximizes storage availability for headphones, USBs, late-night snacks and any club-ready materials you may need on hand — available in functional crossbody and messenger silhouettes.
For music lovers looking to stock up on their favorite vinyl this upcoming Record Store Day, Crumpler invites you to store and transport your music in style. Following this same spirit, the brand pays homage to cultural figures who’ve captured the zeitgeist and energy of contemporary rave culture, inciting the dance floor with old and new interpretations of EDM.
