    Default Music store,s in the north west!!

    Im Finding it very hard to find a GOOD record store in the north-west of england to source good hard techno I recently took a trip out to the spininn in manchester to buy some tune,s I was shoked to find they have stopped selling techno , trance , hardhouse , drum & bass no prob,s but no techno I thought that shop specialized in underground music A major let down I think.

    So where about,s is their for good techno I live in the burnley area & only have public transport to get around so anywhere in Leed,s to Manchester area would be great to go their must be somewhere good.
    I know that their are plenty of good shop,s on the net but I like to find those little gem,s & deleted classic,s etc & you can hear the tune alote better than just a mp3 clip :techno:

    it open 9 to 5 monday to saturday. i cant remember the address, if u walk form the train station and turn right on the main street and keep walking for about 15 minutes its on the left hand side. try yellow pages for more info on address.

    Speak to paul i think his name is. hes clued up on techno and always has good stock in.

    i used to shop at Eastern Bloc a couple of years back and they had pretty much anything you would want, dunno if they're still as good for techno but back then they were one of the best in the NW no question...
