oh yeah, full respect for what they've done for techno in the US and their
stock was great both online and in the store.
I'm not happy to see them close. Their electro section was fantastic and
the store was very organized (and much smaller than I expected).
I just recall that I asked about something they were playing the store and
they told me that they just sold it. It was more the way in which they said
it - like they wouldn't have sold it to me even if they had more copies in
the store. I also asked about some other records they had on the wall
behind the counter and the two guys working were practically ignoring me. I
was the only person in the store - just to make that clear.
Pretty f*cking awful.
I went across the street (Carmine) to Vinyl Mania and got great service and
spent most of my money there.

Yeah,
I have to say that although I have a lot of respect for what Sonic
Groove have achieved over the years and am a fan of a lot of the music
that was generated through them, my visit there left me feeling
ambivalent towards them- It was probably the worst treatment I've ever
received in a record shop anywhere in the world- cold, unfriendly and
unhelpful.
