this list is out of date - most of the shops are out of business now and some (like previously pretty good) spinefarm are clearing out techno music stock - check spinefarm for some 6e CDs, located in the corner of annankatu and eerikinkatu. the only idm-related shop is http://www.disndatrecords.com/ but the prices are relatively high - this is no doubt one of the most expensive countries to visit to. also there may be something interesting in http://www.lifesaver.net/ most famous, streetbeat, sells mostly house/trance-dance music. most "non-pop" djs in finland prefer to order their music from abroad, usually from germany/uk. -- Johannes Gronvall - Damicon Kraa - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
