vinyl set

Turntable music stack

A vinyl set is a DJ performance using vinyl records rather than digital files or CDs.

The term emphasizes the analog medium and the skill required to mix records manually: She's spinning a vinyl set tonight at the club.

Vinyl sets carry connotations of authenticity and craft in electronic music culture, where digital DJing has become standard.
