Besides techno I also like house, electro, idm, broken beat, nu-jazz, hip hop, dub, funk, down tempo...hell, any quality stuff.

Re: [313] London techno vinyl stores / venues
A second to the recommendation for Vinyl Junkies, the coolest store I found in London. The owner is a real character, a French guy named JP who has good musical taste. He also has the greatest number of Moods & Grooves releases I've seen in a single store :) He tends to stock deep into specific labels (M&G and Shaboom are the two I remember in particular) rather than broadly. And unlike many London stores where you have to get the staff to hand you records off the wall in order to preview them, everything at VJ is out in record bins. I didn't like the Music & Video Exchange in Soho very much but the one in the Camden Town market area is good. Atlas was a very good store and was still open at New Year's when I was there, but it closed in February or so if memory serves. I also liked Flying Records in Soho, though it's basically 100% house and no techno. Lots of cool "West London" releases though. Generally I was fairly disappointed with the record stores in London, and I went to a *lot* of them the week I was there (at least 20, including non-dance music places like Stern's, which I've long admired for their African releases, but they have a sterile and uninviting retail operation across from the Kings Cross/St Pancras train station). As for clubs, I did see DJ Assault at Fabric, which is a decent commercial club but *huge* with a long queue even on a low-attendance night. Top quality sound system. Crowds: what you see in DJ or Mixmag. Fred - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [313] London techno vinyl stores / venues
I caught Ian O'Brien and James Pennington playing Fabric last Saturday, both DJs were good (especially Ian O'Brien), but I thought the sound system was pretty poorly set up in the room they played. It over excentuated and distorted the bass and left too much of the tunes unheard. Other than that a wicked club, Jazzanova are there tonight if anyone's interested. - Original Message - From: "Jonny McIntosh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "crisk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Fri, 20 Jul 2001 13:49:46 +0100 (GMT+01:00) Subject: Re: [313] London techno vinyl stores / venues > > 1) Can anyone recommend some good record stores in London where one could > > find some decent techno? > > New techno: > > Smallfish (www.smallfish.co.uk), Old Street.* > Eukatech (www.eukatech.co.uk), Endell Street (nr Covent Garden). > Ambient Soho (website?), Berwick Street (Soho). > Rough Trade (www.rough-trade.com), Neal's Yard (nr Covent Garden). > Vinyl Junkies (www.vinyl-junkies.co.uk), Berwick Street (more housey).* > > I think Tag have moved in with Eukatech and Atlas have closed :( > > Second hand techno: > > Reckless (www.reckless.co.uk), Berwick Street & Upper Street (Islington).* > Music and Video (www.mveshops.co.uk), all over like a rash (Notting Hill, > Berwick St, Camden etc.) > > Marked shops (*) are my favourites.

Re: [313] London techno vinyl stores / venues
Best record stores in London for Techno are : Eukatech (Covent Garden) Big Apple (Croydon) Atlas (Archer St) Swag (Croydon) Venues for decent Techno.. hmmm well Lost is the best club, but that's infrequent. The End has a monthly residency but Fabric remains your best bet for quality DJs. Kev Saunderson, Aril Brikha and Technasia are playing there on 4.8 I'd say London is ok for techno. Carl Craig just DJ'ed at Turnmills. Richie is over here regularly too. - Original Message - From: crisk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Friday, July 20, 2001 1:34 PM Subject: [313] London techno vinyl stores / venues > > Hey all, > > I need your help :) > > 1) Can anyone recommend some good record stores in London where one could > find some decent techno? > > 2) Any recommended venues (clubs / whatever) in / around London that play > decent techno? > > Thanks, > -- crisk > >._ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ._/-==\\\ _ > |_.-`---^-._ > > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[313] London techno vinyl stores / venues
Hey all, I need your help :) 1) Can anyone recommend some good record stores in London where one could find some decent techno? 2) Any recommended venues (clubs / whatever) in / around London that play decent techno?
