[ammo]

Great interview

[scattybeanhead]

i feel the same way that this guy does. wish it was still like that when you HAVE to go down to the shop to listen to tunes and actually talk to people about it, building a scene and a community rather than loads of people sitting at home on the internet buying stuff through the post.
wish i was like 5 years older

[TheTornado]

Loefah, Tunnidge, Cyrus, Mala, and Joe Nice are people who I would pay to hear speak... such great things to say.

[scattybeanhead]

mate the don of them all is pinch. love interviews with him, he always seems to have such interesting things to say

[wizeguy]

Yeah, skream talked a little bit about the lost "record store community" scene in his RBMA lecture, I can totally feel that...There's so much more sense of community and it's fun to talk about music that you like with real people rather than sitting on the computer and buying music on beatport.

Yeah definitely agree.
I've got around 250 records now and all of them were bought on the internet. And I fucking hate that. I wish I could just walk into a record store, stay there for a while just browsing through crates, but unfortunately there just aren't any more stores around where I live. There used to be 3 but they all had to close their doors. 1 of them actually 1 day before I bought my first record...
A real shame really.

True say. Though Tunnidge might have to be my favorite - so much truth to what he says.

Close to Rotterdam mate. We used to have Triple Vision and Rec-Order here but they had to close their doors and only sell from their website now. The only other store I can think of that sells electronic music is Clone Records, but I'm not sure if they still have a physical shop either...

it used to be so good at uni when i could just wander down to the shop, have a chat with the guy about new tunes, be able to listen to anything even if you might not wanna buy it and go home with a bag full of wax and listen to it properly at home. really miss that...

Otherwise if you stop by Amsterdam from time to time go to Rush Hour - great selection and excellent staff

Yeah I know, definitely want to head over there someday. Just sucks that it takes me over 2 hours to get to Dam by train

[Phalanx]

What I'd do to have a record store nearby that actually sells decent stuff, never mind a community, that just isn't going to happen here. Gotta accept that.

Just thinking about how much I must have spent on postage fee's... crazy.

If for whatever reason I'm still living in this dump of a city in the future and I have enough money I'll open a record store, definitely.
