Best Online Record Shops

Waterfront?

for DIY stuff, you're better off visiting the band's myspace and they'll normally sell it to you direct. there's no store where you can get everything ala Volcanic Tongue, though Sound&Fury may turn out to be like that once everyone is on board.

I think it's unlikely that ReR Megacorp will do vinyl reissues of This Heat's albums.

waterfront online sucks

sick. thanks

What's happened to Insound?!

Did they close? Goodbye permanent 10% off everything discount codes.

hmm i reckon insound's been hacked. i was there earlier today and it was working fine.

Speaking of online stores,,, browsing the Forced Exposure catalog could be a full time profession. Heaps better than the ''good old days'' when you had to send away IRCs and wait months for a catalogue to come.

For indie music ive used:

UK
www.normanrecords.com
www.picadillyrecords.co.uk (pre-ordered fuck buttons and dirty projectors EP just then)
www.boomkat.co.uk

US:
www.tonevendor.com
www.scratchrecords.com
www.insound.com
www.fusetronsound.com (good for avante garde etc)

AUS:
www.rockinghorse.net
www.missinglink.net.au

oh man, really loving experimedia right now.

Damn you nishiki, now I'm going to have to spend money.

All the WER stuff, a bunch of DIY stuff and a few top o/s labels.

hellz - i'm almost glad i have no money right now otherwise i'd be spending any spare cash i had there. having said that, i'm praying as hard as i possibly can that the new autechre lp still in stock there doesn't sell out before i get a chance at it

also for any canberrans reefer records is top notch.

Self promotion is about as pretty as public masturbation. The only real difference being once the binary spunk has splurted onto the tcp/ip, it leaves an open port.

Oh that was for Mr Tripp btw.

I'm going to enjoy their free releases for a while nishiki, then maybe splurge. I'm yet to hear the new Autechre, worthy I guess?

worthy from sources i trust. should probably download it from boomkat first before splurge though.

Always a recommended route to happiness :]

Always something good from Crucial Blast.

hey, what is the best online record shop for UK twee/indie stuff?
I am going to almost all the Saint Etienne stuff, is RecordStore.co.uk anygood?

going to (get)...

Geez, fuck giving away a secret like that! How would I horde as much shit?

Bump

I used to buy tonnes of stuff off secondspin.com.

Has anyone bought anything from 14tracks.com? It's an offshoot of boomkat, and the product is essentially mixtapes that you pay for. Interesting/terrible idea? I can't think of many other places specialising in such a thing. Have purchased a few already and they're fairly good value.

Oh, and before you ask why the hell I would pay for something I could get for free -- I'm trying to 'download' stuff less because it makes me feel like a loathsome human.

http://www.actionrecords.co.uk is pretty good :-)
