Receiving the gift of music is a wonderful thing, but receiving something that you aren't crazy about is kind of a drag.
We are here to help! Drift can help in three simple ways to ensure that you end up steering your loved ones to make informed musical choices when gift buying. No one wants to go through the pantomime on Christmas day of pretending to love a bloody awful record.
1. The wishlist
Across the Drift site (desktop, mobile and tablet), you can click the little love heart icon on the top right corner of any album sleeve to add it to your wishlist. You can navigate to your wishlist by clicking the same ❤ icon in the site header and you'll be given the option to share your list via socials, email and even WhatsApp. Browse the site, explore our recommendations and build up a nice list of options to help your prospective shoppers.
2. Give a Record as a Gift
Do you want to gift someone a new record but don’t know quite what to pick? We're here to help! Based on just a few short questions, the team here at Drift will hand-pick an album for you that we think your giftee will love and we'll send it out to them as a gift-wrapped package. You could always let your loved ones know your recent music and cultural crushes and we'll confidently pick something that we're sure you'll love.
3. Gift Cards
It's a pretty safe backup, but Drift stock both digital and physical gift cards. The Digital cards are instantaneous, you'll receive a code that you can forward onto your giftee and they can shop right away at Drift (both online and in the shop if they bring the code with them). The physical gift cards are lovely looking things, with gold foil detailing for that lavish gift vibe. They also work both online and instore like a debit card (so you don't even have to use the entire budget in one go). Select your desired gift amount as either a digital or a physical card and just drop us a line if you need any help.
