Techno Nights (27th-31st May) & Record Stores In Amsterd

[neilried]

OK yeah I know they both exist...

But found out my lovely girlfriend has sorted out a 4 day trip to the dam for my birthday with a bunch of my mates.... sweet huh?!??!

Anyway thought Id ask to see if any of our dutch friends (or anyone else in the know) on here can shed any light on a couple of things for me....

Record Shops - Last time I found In Deep In Dance (Side street off the Damrak) and Outland (Zeedijk 22), are there any others worth checking out in the city? Looking for shops doing funky to full fat fitlhy techno and clicky bleepy tech house?!?!?

Club Night - Anyone putting on, playing at, or involved in a night in central amsterdam on the weekend of 27th - 30th May? Looking for a funky techno night ideally but just up for a good night really so not too fussed just good DJS good soundsystem and good atmos, been to the dam four times now and never made it out to a club or even past the Rockeriji or Abraxis come to think of it..... :doh:

Can't help with the Techno Nights I'm afraid mate as I no longer live in Amsterdam.....but in terms of the Record Shops I found Outland to be the best of the bunch when looking for Techno. ;)

Hey Dave!! What are you up to!? I am back in Plymouth now, send us an Email and explain yourself!

Boutdisuqe is about the best techno store in dam in term of prices, its on average 2 euros cheaper than Outland on EACH TUNE.

If you go through their shelves you WILL find gems, loads of them.

Yeah outland is the best one I guess.....

You could try Boudisqe too that's on the beginning of the Nieuwendijk( the side of central station) Sometimes they got some nice shit....

Or you could try Rushhour on the spuistraat for the more experimental techno and a little less mainstream sh*t...

For parties Traffic is perfect.. think it is the best night in Amsterdam.. expect the darker side of techno...

Maybe check www.beatfreax.nl for more parties to be announced...

aight..
