aswell as the internet sites i regularly shop at..dswat, hard to find, juno, chemical, redeye, (sure they've all been mentioned!) plus possiblemusic in berlin (great site but i had a bit of trouble with it) these are the stores i shop at in cities i've lived in since i started collecting vinyl (under a year!)
manchester - fat city records - hip hop/breaks/reggae/ragga jungle/scatch tools
eastern bloc - drum n bass/dubstep/house/electro/techno
vinyl exchange - hip hop/jungle/dnb/old skool/techno/punk/metal/house/electro/nu jazz/soul
newcastle upon tyne - beatdown records!!! this record shop and the guys who run it are fucking WICKED. there's now two shops one selling metal and rock, punk etc and the other selling everything else...drum and bass/dubstep/breakcore/gabber/house/electro/hip hop/techno and tons more. the guys are well friendly and always sort me out with a bit of discount when i'm there. best record shop in the UK me thinks! also won an award this year.
brighton - edgeworld - never been here coz couldn't find it but i hear it sells breakcore/jungle etc (gutted!)
rarekind - hip hop and a bit of dnb and jungle
the other one on the same street as rarekind (!) i popped my skull in to ask if they had any dnb and was told they didn't..from what i could see it's all house and electro etc
rounder records - drum n bass/hip hop/house/techno
edinburgh - underground solushun - hip hop/scratch tools/breaks/dubstep/drum n bass/house/soul/techno.. little bit of old skool and jungle mixed in with the dnb section too which is nice!
bristol - moving here on monday so i've yet to check it out proper but the obvious ones are...
dswat!
DMT sounds
chemical records
rooted records
if i can think of anymore i'll add 'em.
inabit! X
