dubstep record shop in london

Post by Andej » Fri Jul 08, 2011 6:10 pm

Hi guys!

Thought this might be the right place to ask, so here goes.

Some friends of mine are heading to London on vacation next week, and i've been wanting them to get me some records that i can't buy here in Denmark. (i prefer having my music as cd's instead of digital, that's why.)

So, the thing is.. are there any record shops in london that you guys could recommend me sending em to?

Check all of these out, they're all in Soho and are within about 1/4 mile of one another...

awesome, thanks a lot!

Thing is, that you can barely get anything without buying it digital here.
Only thing i found so far was burial.

Hi,

I think some of the UK online retailers ship to Europe, just the postage will be quite high!

Check out http://www.redeyerecords.co.uk & http://www.chemicalrecords.co.uk

Best,

Hiya!
Yea , redeye and chemical records are top source of vinyls , they ship everywhere and shipping to Denmark is gonna be cheap - it's very close...Loads of digital stuff on: http://www.digital-tunes.net/ btw...

I'm spending the summer in London and looking for some more underground/independent record shops. The ones mentioned above (BM,SisterRay,Phonica,Sounds of The Universe) are good, but still wouldn't mind some smaller independent ones...I went down to Soho and found pretty much the ones already mentioned and that's all.
Am I missing something? Heard there's loads of them in Camden town??
Suggestions welcome!
Cheers,
Sash

What he said. Soho is the best place bar none for vinyl shopping in London.

Camden is good for second hand crate digging, but you will have to dig beyond belief to find anything worthwhile!

buying records from chemical and shipping it to DK is obviously cheaper than buying records in denmark..
but if you would like to buy records phsyically in denmark go check Blå Records in Blågårdsgade. if you live in CPH. they have a bit dubstep, DnB and loads of techno/house records.
plus sometimes they serve free beers down there 8)

Sounds of the Universe and Blackmarket Records are pretty good for dubstep.

I know a big record shop in London, it's at 115 Buckingham Palace Road, so hopefully they could have a dubstep record shop as well.
Here's their web site: http://hmv.com/hmvweb/home.do
Hope it can be useful to you ;-)

sister ray is the best in soho IMO, real nice vibe to it and its got a decent dubstep/uk funky selection.

i tend to not bother using the northern line from charing cross to euston anymore just so that i can take a trip down to berwick street haha
you're not wrong, you're just an asshole
