Last time I was there it seemed Cisco had shut, I use to think Disc Union was the best store Ive ever been in but recently they moved the Shibuya store around and now the techno/ house is on the 3rd floor which is much smaller and indie/rock/metal is where the techno use to be....shame....but Haqq's artwork was still there. Because of this I felt on my last visit that Disk Union Shimokitazawa was a better site. Shimokitazawa has lots of cool vintage stores and record stores, you must check out city country city its a record store in a café....small but ace vinyl section.

Disc Union is unbelievable. So many Detroit classics in there, back catalogue like you wouldn't believe. Take your cash, and plenty of it. Plus the added bonus of some original Abdul Haqq artwork on the walls. Is Cisco Techno still around? - P.
