My favorite shop for new music is Halcyon, in Dumbo (Brooklyn): halcyonline.com
A1 is great for used Disco and Hip-Hop, as is The Sound Library on Ave A. There's a new, smaller shop on East 2nd street b/w Ave A & B (or maybe B & C?) that had a decent selection of used disco, house and reggae. I can't recall the name offhand... I'd also suggest Academy Records in Williamsburg (somewhere around N6th street and Berry St.) they have a nice diverse selection of stuff, though mostly used. Vinyl Market keeps somewhat irregular hours, as it's only employee is the owner, Kazu. Turntable Lab is good, though small. I haven't hit Dope Jams, as it's inconveniently located for me. As for Syntax: John D is not the owner, he's the Domestic Buyer. Mike M and Stas are/were the owners. I'm going there tomorrow to pick up some of their stock so I'll see what's up. They still have lots of stuff, they've just stopped buying new music and are liquidating their backstock. Unique also apparently closed up shop, but I haven't heard any details yet.
