Underground Solush’n

Old Town


A paradise for those in search of new and secondhand vinyl, this place has thousands of records – techno, house, jungle, hip hop, R&B, funk, soul and 45s – plus a (smaller) selection of CDs, T-shirts, videos, books and merchandise. It’s also a good place to find out what’s happening on the local music/clubbing scene.
