goyo club exists for the locals. For the stories that don't always get told and for the artists shaping sound on their own terms.
We were built to archive what matters, giving local artists the stage they deserve while preserving the culture of our community. This started with two filmmakers who wanted to document artists in the real world, not in studios or sets, but in the places that raised us.
We curate and archive artists inside family owned spaces across Los Angeles, capturing the talent and stories of artists and spaces that often go unnoticed. Spaces with history, texture, and memory became the heart of goyo club, a way to celebrate local talent while honoring the places that hold our communities together.
Our current archives include Electric Cleaners, featuring DJ mixes inside a Koreatown dry cleaner, and Finding Records, capturing live performances in the last standing Korean bookstore in Koreatown, LA. We connect these sounds with the memory of the spaces that hold our community together, expanding on this mission by building stages through live events and parties, gathering the people to listen to the local artists archived by us. We plan to expand our archives to capture many different forms of art and spaces, sharing these events with the community.
