What customers say

This is how a record store should be run these days! Music spinning when you enter, an easy to navigate store, interesting record covers and items decorating the joint and a helpful employee/shop owner ready to check the back for any requests that aren't already put out. Quality customer service right there.

I walked in to this store for the first time about a month ago and this place is nothing short of incredible. There is quite literally something for everyone here, and their selection of hip hop and salsa was very diverse. I spent almost too much time because I had so much fun digging through the stuff they had here.

Favorite record store in Bushwick area. Good size store, not overwhelming at all. Great selection of hip hop, rap, classics/rock, Latin, etc. Also have great prices on new arrival records and a great deal on the discount crates. Vic is so nice and knowledgeable. Crate diggers happy place

Dope lil spot with an eclectic collection from hip-hop, jazz, soul, Spanish, international, geez - so much. Loved they got the listening station up too, friendly customer service, and reasonable prices/quality for the used records. Would definitely come back to dive in for more.
