Buying dubstep in Brussels / Belgium

[dj mate]

why don't you ask the record shop owner to order the things you wanna have, i mean if they can order the major labels they can order the smaller ones too, it's obvious that you know alot more of this stuff than the record shop owners, tell them what youre seeking, give them contacts of distributors etc
in ghent it's better now, i find most in musicmania now,
you find storming, dubpolice, earwax, big apple and lots of other stuff, and if they see that it sells, they will order more stuff,


i mean it's brussels, there are alot of dubstep heads there, it's not that there are only 2 or 3 people that would buy the dubstep stuff

give it a try you never now, just ask, and keep asking, tell your friends to ask about dubstep in the rec shop, after some time, they'll get it that people want more dubstep
and then its better for them and for you

and if they don't want to do it, then they are just plain stupid

ive pushed a lot of labels in the ghent record stores, but its still hard to get them all, sometimes they order 10 or 20 copies and get 1,2 or none .
they order via lowlands and triplevision and some other distributors...
but its getting better day by day

In the meantime I've already placed two orders at juno (third one is on its way), and I must say that I'm positively impressed.
Delivery takes 3 days tops, huuuuge choice and prices (including shipping) are the same or even lower than at my local record stores (being Lost in Music and Goupil-o-Phone)

Yet another update:

Just wanted to big up Lost in Music (http://www.lostinmusicrecords.com/) and Pele-Mele (http://www.pele-mele.be/) in Brussels because they are now stocking more and more dubstep. You can now buy or order most of the new releases and even a lot of older releases at these shops -- and not just the big labels like Tempa, Planet Mu etc (for example, I bought Funeral March (ARMY), For real (Terminal Dusk US), Time on earth (Argon), some old Skull Disco's, the new Burial LP, the new Cyrus, ... at Lost in Music just a few days ago).
New releases arrive at Fridays, so when something comes out in the beginning of the week, most of the time it's available at Lost in Music by the end of the same week (at Pele-Mele it takes a little longer).
Another good point for me is that now that Juno is starting to increase its prices (most new releases now cost 5,99 GBP instead of 4,99 a few months ago), it's even cheaper to buy the records here in Belgium (prices range from 8 to 10 EUR) than online.

So, go pay these shops a visit and show them that Brussels is indeed interested in dubstep!
