What are the best techno shops in London?

[SlavikSvensk]

Hello. I'm probably going to be in London in March and want to hear people's thoughts on the best places to get techno records there. When I lived there I used to either go to the shops on Berwick Street, Atlas or that little place in Camden. It's been a while, so I'm out of date and I hear Atlas is gone. Any suggestions??

these are the best, they have abroader selection of techno. whereas bangingtunes and trackheadz tend to stock or push mostly the london and acid techno sound (understandably)

i used to go to eukatech 6 years ago when i lived there and felt it was too much tech-house. is that still the case or has it changed?

depends onwhat you call "too much"? They sell alot of techno surely dunt matter if they sell more tech house. And you really haven't explained what labels/artists you are after. Anyway it would only take you 10 minutes to look. I tend to do all of them because you can pick up different tunes in different shops.

euka tech is like £8 or £9 a record! and its more house yes still. some light techno...


london is not very good i think for techno tbh. for the size of the city its mad that there are only a few record shops that sell techno! and the ones that do sell alot of shit. better off buying from the internet i think :(
