hello all, just moved up.

called me old fashioned, but i still like to go out and buy my records on a saturday in person rather than online. please recommend good record shops for buying dubstep, and if you can: electronic stuff (IDM to use that disgusting tag), drum and bass / old jungle, hip hop, breakbeats and samples.

any help given would be very much appreciated.

cheers

Sound of the universe....they sorted me mum out proper.

BM-soho where good aswell

All the vinyl exchanges are amazing, but leave the 90s hip hop for me.

HMV aswell, if your a scab.

I'd say sister ray probably... My favourite record store, I don't know why no one on here seems to mention it....
