A
Title
This cleverly designed corner store mixes things up with rare release CDs, including the complete Trojan catalogue, new local indie releases as well as a good collection of less-than-predictable world music artists. Its classic DVDs come in way-too-tempting box sets and there’s a small range of music books perfect for gifts. In-store music events happen upstairs from time to time too.

Northside
Northside’s stock is DJ mashup eclectic, from Curtis to NY hard salsa to hip-hop; from straight-up funk to Bollywood soundtrack, much of it on vinyl. Despite appearances to the contrary, staff are never too cool for school, and are happy to track down rare albums on request.
