Sadly, due to rising costs, poor US market, and poor US distributors, the brutal truth is that most of the best new Detroit records are now ONLY available in Europe; basically, although I live in Chicago, when I want new Detroit music, I order from Juno, Boomkat and Hardwax. I don't even bother checking US stores anymore if I am looking for specific records, though of course I do shop at Gramaphone here in Chicago from time to time as well.
It seems that the whole "EDM" popularity over here has not helped with the US vinyl market for underground house and techno at all. I had hoped that increasing vinyl sales would help things, but I can only assume that the rising popularity of vinyl is limited more to indie rock type music, here in the US... ~David On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 10:14 PM, Richard Hester <[email protected]> wrote: > Unless you happen to be in Berlin, sad to say... >
