  2. Fye Music

    FYE is sort of the Virgin Records of Miami: loud, ubiquitous and enormous. This two-story location has a café, lots of listening booths and a so-so selection of CDs, DVDs and videos that leans toward the mainstream.

  3. Sweat Records

    Sweat's almost a stereotype of the indie record store: it serves organic coffee, it's got big purple couches, it sells weird Japanese toys and there are skinny guys with thick glasses arguing over LPs you've never heard of. It feels a little out of place in hip-hop-y Latin Miami, but we're glad someone's waving the indie flag in this town.

  4. Uncle Sam's Music

    More than just a music store, this place seems to generate its own stream of hipper-than-thou skate rats and club kids. You'll see them digging through the piles of the coolest new (and used) trance, hip-hop, trance and trip-hop, as well as stickers, club wear, incense and the like.

    This being DJ-saturated Miami, Yesterday & Today has that comforting, old-school medium known as vinyl, as well as every other recorded-music format. The very helpful and knowledgeable staff specialize in '50s, '60s and '70s tunes, and even have a selection of 45s (singles).
