64 Vinyl Record Stores in Berlin

I am so glad I visited this haven of vinyl. An amazing collection lovingly curated and cared for. For somebody who has only a passing knowledge of classical music , the recommendations given were hugely valuable and the chance to chat with such a music lover was more than worth the visit. Also very reasonable prices!

I have just started building my vinyl library and after such a wonderful visit to 33rpm, it’s going to be my main go-to when looking for classical. It was a genuine pleasure to visit and his recommendations were fantastic.

Amazing place for all classical record collectors. Much better than Hartwig. The selection is great and the owner is very nice and helpful. It is a little difficult to locate, you need to ring a bell next door (on the right) from English theatre Berlin. There is a tiny plate with 33rpm on it. But don't worry, it's worth the visit ;)

It was really difficult to find here, but one of the best place I've visited in Berlin ever. If you press the bell, he welcomes you. If you love classical music and if you are a big fan of Vinyl culture, you must visit here. This must be your paradise.

Paradise for classical music lovers! Great atmosphere, huge collection. What a beautiful place to escape for a few minutes from the busy day-to-day. 33rpm is a bit hard to find: hint, the bell is small and next to the door to number 40, directly on the street, not in the hinterhof 🙂…

One of my favourite record shops in Berlin with a very good selection of 90s and 00s breakbeat and electro. The staff is friendly and helpful. They also have some hard to find pieces on the wall that I dream of adding to my collection. Definitely recommend passing by when in Berlin.

Great shop with a wide selection of music. Very reasonable prices and a great owner. They really helped me with my Underground Resistance album 😎 thanks Bro, I appreciate it

Worth stopping by. Good finds, quality records and nice people. Definitely coming back next time. God speed

Amazing catalogue of a wide variety of styles. Well curated.

Amazing second hand record shop . Absolutely recommended for digging experience. From jazz to techno and house to hip hop everything is possible here.

Really cool vinyl shop especially for house and techno, has a great listening area upstairs which is super fun! Henrik who was covering there was really sound we had a great chat about music!

Really great selection of records old and new. Great use of space with the records downstairs and the the listening area upstairs with multiple turntables. The staff were very friendly as well.

Beatiful place with a tasty curated selection of music by the good man Júlian

A definite favourite - wide range of second-hand vinyl, Techno, House, Acid, as well as selections of Jazz, Ambient, IDM, and other Electronic styles. A welcoming environment & staff, where you’re guaranteed to walk away with something nice

The love for music really gets you. It is a very silent and beautiful place. If you are looking for well-priced vinyls, you should definitely check it!

Great store with a really well curated selection that leaves you feeling like there’s a lot of gems to sift through in a small space. Some interesting indie rock stuff and some more niche hardcore stuff that you don’t see in every store.

Online experience only, but wow! Great selection, good prices but the most rapid shipment I ever witnessed. The order arrived in 2 days, from Germany to Italy, and of course everything was in perfect condition. Can’t wait to visit the physical store in the future btw 👏

Well-sourced record store. Excellent customer attention. Hardcore metal, doom, punk and alternative music.

Amazing selection, unique spot in Berlin for the subgenres you rarely see in record stores :)

Great selection of a wide range of genres, some real gems. The prices are pretty damn good and owner is knowledgeable and helpful. A fantastic store for all looking outside the classic-rock and pop vinyl sphere.

Amazing choice of records — literally the best in Berlin. I visited almost 10 shops before finally finding this gem. Great selection, fair prices, and a vibe every vinyl lover will appreciate. Highly recommended! — Abu

Lovely place with well minimal selection. Thanks Joe

Big selection of records, friendly people!

From a record lover for record lovers! Super sorted! No1 for electronic music!

Small but very good records shop. You have both new and second hand articles and the best thing is that they are organised perfectly! The guy was very nice and explained us everything before we started our source. They have their own coffee shop nextdoor, so you can grab something to drink and enjoy it while listening to vinyls. Fantastic!

My favorite spot in the City! If you're looking for records or a great time or a way to explore your musical tastes or just chill on the bench outside for some atmosphere, even in the Rain, this is the place for you. You may just actually find me sitting on said bench when you get there depending on the mata tea supply. I LOVE the Family atmosphere!!

Great record store for dub/reggae/dnb

Nice vibes, wicked reggae vinyl and very decent prices. Great atmosphere and helpfull staff. Big up!!

Bought some Irie Music online very very fast delivery. Soon I'll be coming to Berlin & will be visiting the shop for more vinyls. Keep on Keeping On. Onward & Forward

great spot! and not just for buying the finest in reggae-roots-dub music... but also as a very lively culture hub for red gold & green ites in Berlin town. Come to visit!

One gate was quickly and efficiently cleared, but there was no traffic. The pallet truck unloaded the trailer to its edge, and the forklift handled the rest. Contact is in English. Access is quite tight through the city, but not the center. The entrance is at the general address 20/21, about 100 meters from the entrance. Google Maps will guide you to your destination.

They unloaded it right away and quickly found a place to drive in that was a bit awkward at 90 degrees into the yard.

Bought there my guitar after I came to Germany. Very polite and knowledgeable owner, - was a pleasure to deal with. Since then, buying there my strings. Overall: small shop with nice atmosphere and people. Recommended.

I've been visiting the shop on my business trips to Bonn since 2016. Made my first purchase today. Actually, a great pleasure to come to the shop. It feels like home. Very interesting choice of guitars for such a shop and always filled with fresh supplies of guitar goodies. Friendly, well informed staff. Touching and playing allowed :) I 'd like to apologise for my poor playing :D

This shop is absolutely precious and the best you will find in the Bonn area. The shop owner is a knowledgeable and great guy. I bought a Fender American Pro Strat here, which I could test play for plenty of time. Upon purchase I could also trade in my old equipment (amps, guitars and speakers) for a fair price. Huge recommendation!

I had a chance to freely play the piano.

You feel the soul of music immediately, once you enter this place

Great shop, good selection of used vinyl and very helpful and friendly manager and staff.

I came from England to see Alphaville play in Berlin and had to go record shopping too. Found some great bargains here and the owner helped me find the records I was after. Was given a good deal on the price, too. Will definitely visit again next time I’m in Berlin!

Nice selection of 1 Euro second hand CDs displayed at the front door. As the shop was closing down, I only ran fast through them and collected some-teen releases of old school (20+ years) rave, trance and drum'n'bass.

Surprised by the recent reviews. Very friendly service and full of decent quality, well priced vinyl. Great selection of rock and alternative from 60s to present.

The atmosphere here is just right. A lot of quality music at a very affordable price. A must-see for every CD and LP lover. Bought this double CD for just 13€

Fantastic store! This is what Berlin is about! Authentic, cramped and the real deal. A mixture of LPs, tapes, CD's, books and clothing. All in German but it really isen't a problem. The prices are close to market, but I would spend them here in a heartbeat for the atmosphere and love that this store have. Very excentick and eclectic! Personally i really enjoyed they'er LP section with Avantgarde Electronic music, and DDR pop and communist songs.

Very charming store with lots of different items like clothing books and records

Besides records this place has a fanatics selection of second hand and vintage clothing, highly recommend visiting

Beautiful store. Beautiful owner.

Top selection vinyl: jazz kraut rock pop funk soul ....

Dodo Beach is a SPRAWLING vinyl establishment! Rarely have I visited a shop that feels as welcoming & inviting to peruse in. Their shelves are jammed with tons & tons of reissues, often titles you don’t see often (or ever), a ton of which are from the more golden era of guitar based music (1960’s-early 1980’s). I’m hunting for 7” singles & was happy to pull out a Giuda 7” & Kinks 7” I had been looking for. For massive reissue selections, Dodo Beach is your one stop shop in Berlin.

Excellent shop! Thanks from Riga:)

I love this record shop so much. It's in a neighbourhood that I have visited throughout my life when visiting family in Berlin. I was there recently, and have now added three brilliant vinyls to my collection. One that I was looking for, and two at the owner's suggestion. Great little spot, I would highly recommend to anyone looking for vinyls, old or new, in Schoneberg:) Ein wunderbarer Laden und ein Muss jedes Mal, wenn ich meine Familie in Berlin sehe!

Nice records store, very big variety. I always come here to buy tickets for the rock concerts in Berlin. Very friendly stuff. You can of course pay with card and cash. They speak English. The location is comfortable, not far from the u-Bahn.

Big selection of pop/rock/metal/jazz/60s/indie, basically anything but a house/club/techno of which there is only a small section. Also loads of 7".

Wasn’t able to spend too much time there unfortunately cuz I arrived late and it was then closed the days after.. but for what I’ve seen , it’s incredible collection and titles mostly if you searching for world/ethnic stuff and sounds from all around the world. Will surely need to come back properly. Big up

The place to go if you are diggin' in Berlin and you are looking for second hand vinyls. Super selection of blues and jazz (from classic to free, from hard-bop to seventies funk and spiritual) at very good prices, tons of prog and psychedelic rarities from all over the world, soul, R&B, soundtracks, esotic folk, a fantastic kraut section and a secret cave for the serious stuff. Fantastic.

Where to begin? I’ve been digging here in Berlin for about a month & hit some decent shops but was wondering where the majority of the rare/gems filtered? This is a record collector’s shop, and very suited toward my tastes: mod/soul, new wave/goth, punk/subculture. I’m in the singles market exclusively & they had a nice well-curated selection to pull from, got a copy of Black Widow’s “Come to the Sabbat” and Creation’s “Biff Bang Pow” on 7” for a reasonable price. Pricing is around the median-Discogs asking price, minus shipping - so you’re getting a deal but not necessarily a “score” per se. I loved perusing this sprawling store, only open weekends!

The store is fantastic, way bigger than expected looking from the outside. great selection of vinyls from all genres (included a surprisingly big variety of indie rock vinyls). Prices are pretty good but they only accept cash, which is always annoying as hell (good that there is an atm a few meter from the store)

I've been to this wonderful store last week, there's a lot of gems... I've spent great time at here. The owner is very nice man, Thank you so much, next time I will make more time to search your gems. from Japanese guy.

Ive been here on two occasions and each time was brilliant! Staff was top, they helped me in detail and certainly know there stuff. They had a lot of good techno vinyl, this makes me a happy man. The one negative I will say is that I wish they could have more vinyl players.

The best record store in Berlin for Electronic Music, and also a very solid choice for anything related to Reggae and Dub. New selections are updated multiple times a week and you can even order in advance and pick-up in-store, if you live locally which for me is a huge time saver. Also for online users, the download selections are also very good.

Professional staff, always available to assist with any questions and feedback on your search for sounds

Finding and visiting the place is an experience within an experience. You won't bump on it if you don't really look for it, in a (small dilapidated) court and up to a (very dilapidated) stairway. They have a great selection of techno and electronic records. So far so good. Unfortunately people working there won't talk to you willingly. You can't take pictures even if it's not for "turistic purposes"(I'm a record collector and I like to compare prices and editions before buying). So, place is nice (very Berlin style) but people are rude.

Gday. Made an order for 20x records from Hard Wax, Germany on the 17th February, 2024. They arrived in Australia less than two weeks later. Hard Wax went out of their way to ensure that the records were expertly packed and could survive their journey around the world intact. They don't use crappy packing materials - they only use stiff cardboard boxing that is made for vinyl records. They include extra internal packing materials as well. They wrap the records in tissue paper and separate clear wrap to keep it from moving during transit. Everything arrives in its store-bought condition. The pricing including shipping is still 25 - 50% cheaper than if you buy it in Australia from any retail store (including supposed discount music sellers.) The communication was excellent and I was notified via email as to when the parcel was sent out. The payment process is simple and easy to follow. Shipping information is automatically calculated on their website at the time of ordering and you can change your mind before making a payment to add or deduct items from your order. I am always reluctant to purchase records from USA or UK because the packing is always lousy and the service is lacklustre. They want your business but treat you like a number; whereas dealing with German companies, like Hard Wax, I know that the experience will be friendly, professional, reliable and hassle-free. Thanks so very much for the fantastic customer service experience. I know where I will be buying hard-to-find records from again that are impossible to acquire in Australia.

Lovely friendly owner let me in even though he was doing inventory day. Very helpful. Great prices. Bought a rare beatles record club release at a really decent price a Russian Paul McCartney for 2 euros another beatles and a queen and he kindly knocked some euros off for me. The shop takes only cash. The owner held the records for me until I came back 2 days later.. really interesting selection of genres ordered sensibl. Well worth a rummage. Opposite a lovely bar on the canal..so if you have a long suffering companion..they can rest up there whilst you crate dig happily.

One of the best music shops in Berlin. I go there sometimes to buy vinyls. They have great collections and fair prices. See you next time :)

Visited today, nice selection and service!

Good selection overall, but particularly of East German 80s pop

Good collection and very cheap price old lps

Very nice record shop with a large number of classical and opera records. I had a very pleasant experience and left the shop with two bags of opera’s with different composers. Furthermore the owner of the shop was very helpful and could understand and speak Danish. A very nice experience and highly recommended for classical records.

Great collection (heavy focused on academic music and jazz), but small pop/rock section is superb. Friendly owners / staff.

Delightful shop, really nicely decorated and inviting. Plus the owner is highly knowledgeable and friendly.

My personal favorite shop! The owner is a truly friendly and knowledgeable person, and you can have a great conversation with him. The selection of jazz, classical music, and soundtracks is very impressive, and you can always find something you like. It's always a pleasure to enjoy the special atmosphere of this gem!

A record shop in Berlin that's a real treasure, ideal for collectors. Great collection of classical music, jazz, and some rock. The German rock selection was my favorite. Located in a lovely neighborhood, and the host was fantastic. Highly recommended!

Pick up from Discogs- Easy. Selection in store also very/ very good. Joe - owner - friendly and always with a lot of ideas. Great place for electronic headz. Soon im back.

Owner unfriendly to the max. I needed to tell him that I was not here to rob him, because of his looks. When I left he immediately went back to check what I was digging, perhaps to see if I took something? Who knows. Music selection is random. For techno heads apparently is fine. Old record store, records not even in plastic outer sleeves, not an inviting experience.

Definitely a 10 out of 10! The Selection and Organisation is top notch, the quality of the vinyls is really good (definitely a higher standard than most of the other vinyl stores in the area), prices are absolutely fair and the owner is really nice. After I told him what I like he recommended me a couple of tunes and really hit the spot with some. Absolutely recommend to go there! Also make sure you had a quick browse through his discogs (simplyfreshtunes) before you go, since his store really just scratches the surface of his collection.

My absolute favorite record store in all of Berlin ! Jackson , the owner, is extremely friendly and really knows his electronic music. He’s been in Berlin for 20+ years, even a veteran of OST Gut before it became Berghain! His selection of records is extremely diverse and he has a price range for everyone. Serval gems in the €5 euro bin. He even has a bin of 2 LP albums where if one is missing he’s discounted it heavily so you can still pick up a piece. It’s an absolute joy to come shop here, I’ve now been coming to Jackson Records for almost 3 years.

A bizarre experience. Got told off for not buying any of the records I listened to. This can happen and a normal part of record digging. I’ve been here before and left with an excellent haul, but this time nothing grabbed me, fine. I asked him about the record he was playing in the shop and he just shook his head and said nothing else. He asked me for my discogs wantlist, I hesitated as it kind of defeats the purpose of going in person if I’m just going to buy records from my discogs wantlist. My friend found a record and asked for the price and he again just shook his head and said no. Right afterward he continued to lecture us about how rude we were for listening to records without buying them, and acted like it was a personal affront to him that we somehow didn’t pick out records that were both wanted by us and that he was willing to sell to us (again, he shook his head at us when we enquired about records we were interested in). He suggested this wasn’t the record store for us…this much he was correct about. Probably better for everyone if he just sticks to discogs.

Nice hidden gem in the middle of nowhere. Very friendly owner, was even offered a coffee and he cleaned a record right on the spot that looked a little iffy. If you’ve been to a couple record spots in Berlin you know how rare this is. No listening station, but they’ll play stuff for you. I used my phone to check out stuff I didn’t know, again this was no problem. Worth the trip!

Excellent service, great prices and pleasant atmosphere. Clean records and good deals.

Lovely shop, lots to see, lots to talk about, we'll definitely be back. Oh, and my wife was so happy with her Howi record. Thanks again!

Unfortunately, it's very hidden away, but all the better for it. A fantastic selection of vinyl and CDs in all categories. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. The condition of the records is usually above average, the prices are fair—what more could you want? For me, it's the best record store for miles around. Anyone who's been there once will definitely come back.

Absolutely terrible. According to the website and Google, the shop is open from 11:00 AM on Saturdays... then you walk for an hour to the very back of the shop, search for the entrance for what feels like forever because there's no signpost... and then you finally find yourself standing in front of locked doors. No one answered the door after ringing the bell or anything, even though I could hear voices coming from inside. A complete farce.

Great tip for world / turkish music lovers. Since 11 am with friendly owner - top place to start vinyl day @Berlin.

Highly enjoyable record shop with a heavy emphasis on world sounds, primarily Turkish & Japanese pop music. I am primarily searching for punk/new wave/glam & rock records & was happy to pull a handful of great European picture sleeved 7” titles that are impossible to find in the USA … and for a great value! Thank you!

Wonderful collection of Records, especially Anatolian Rock. And the owner is really friendly and helpful. I feel lucky for discovering this store in Berlin

Nice selection of records from all over the world. In particular they have large collection of Turkish, Mediterranean and oriental music, which is claimed to be the largest in Europe. Owner is old friend of mine. We played together in a band way past. He is a great musician and has a broad musical knowledge. Dont forget to chat with him if you stop by. Lefter Records is a hidden gem in the lively neighbourhood of Kreuzberg, for you to discover.

I travel a lot and always shop for records wherever I go. Lefter Records honestly might be my favorite record store in the world - it feels like it's curated for my personal taste! Where else can I find Turkish psychedelic rock, soukous, cumbia, and Georgian folk music! Incredible. Owner is super nice, too. I purchased quite the haul on my recent visit and he threw in some free swag. I will return whenever I visit Berlin!

- Logo (good vibes - great selection, normal prices, Pop / Rock / Jazz / Oldies / Indie... polite and friendly man working / new items & second hand / Another Must Visit record store in Berlin)

One of the best record shops in Berlin, an amazing selection, loads of first pressings in great condition, and fair prices.

Of the ten or so German record stores I visited, my favorite experience was in this store. The owner is very nice and happy to talk about shared interests (Allman Brothers, especially!) His prices are more than fair, he takes care of the albums by storing them properly and even separating the LP from the sleeve when necessary, and he has a selection of special records behind the counter. If you let him know what you’re looking for, he will show you what’s in stock. In the age of Discogs and eBay, I definitely recommend visiting Logo in person. Extra points for being one of the view shops to accept card payments.

Amazing shop, probably the best I went to in Berlin, friendly owner and great recommendations

This place is really lovely! Nice selection of records from many genres, and it was no problem to try some of them. We also had an interesting chat with the owner, who has been running this store since 1985 and some great stories to share!

The music selection is excellent, and it has some great CDs. The best part of this shop is the woman, I heard today was her first day at work, I bought a few vinyl records and left my wallet behind, but she waited for me and helped me to find it. I was so touched by her sincerity. I'll definitely come back next year. Thank you. You made my last day in Berlin.

I bought so many records I almost couldn’t afford to fly home! Thanks Mitch, you have so much knowledge and it was really fun talking to you. Old stuff and new stuff! See you next year for the big surprise party..! Brett

First record shop I visited in Berlin. Got a really good selection of house and techno. The guy working there was sound, he made a comment about my Rush Hour Records tote bag then we were talking about records and the Netherlands etc. Accepts Card & Cash which is always a bonus! Managed to pick up some nice records, good experience !

A cozy record store that specialises in techno / dance / house / electronica music BUT they also have a decent collection of Jas, soul, funk, pop, rock and indie stuff. Both nee and used vinyls are available here. They also have CDs! Great store run by an amazing man who refused to get photographed as he is shy hahaha! Great one hour I spent here - my first record store in Berlin - picked up Rolling Stones, Motown compilations, Lennon, Jazz and more. Highly recommend this store.

superb record store. best house music in town. also has a large collection of second hand vinyls. much love 🫶

Cool place, can find cheap good vinyls and it is possible to pay with card. Awesome

Top!!

A specialist in hard and heavy AOR rock, with more expertise than anyone else in this genre. Unfortunately, the general price increases have disproportionately affected the store. This shop is okay for smokers, but for me as a non-smoker, it's become almost unbearable. The latest releases are always fresh off the press, and older records are available upon request with relatively short delivery times, if possible. There's also a section of used records at reasonable prices; all are in very good condition and individually checked. Junk is NOT purchased. New pressings are also available. Overall, 4 stars for the high quality and selection of records offered, one star deducted for the constant smoking in the shop. Please note: opening hours are short each day, so check the opening times to avoid arriving to find the door closed.

Cool record store with a good selection and fair prices. The only downside, in my opinion, is that smoking is allowed inside. Firstly, it's a nuisance while you're cleaning, and secondly, it contaminates the records and sleeves with nicotine.

Anyone looking for an "old school" record store with a penchant for hard rock, melodic rock, or heavy metal should definitely check this place out when visiting Berlin (other genres, such as blues and krautrock, are also represented!). The owner is very friendly, and you can immediately tell he's passionate about his work. Fans of Japanese CDs should definitely check out the selection—new, shrink-wrapped copies for €16.90—you won't find a better price! I'll definitely be back on my next trip to Berlin!

Interesting shop, very charming vibe, kind owner, I found a couple cool things at fair (for 2021) prices.

Great shop, super nice owner, broad choice and one can listen to the records.

Great selection and reasonable prices

Many jazz records, fair prices! Also lotsen of other stüff and the owner is nice.

This is one of the worst record shops i have visited, records is stored in shelves so a nightmare to look trough..and inventory was not impressive.

Amazing record store. I got a couple of rarities on discogs and then another one in the store when I picked up my purchases. The guy from the store is super kind, and gives you more recommendations based on what you get or liked. He is amazing and their music selection is incredibly good. Also, you shouldn’t believe the bad reviews. Everything has an amazing quality and the conditions of the items are as described or even better than described. He also doesn’t sell shirts so don’t believe the bad reviews, they are trying to scam the owners by leaving bad reviews and then asking for money to take them out.

Fantastic record shop with a varied selection of gems. Worth a venture if you are in Berlin. Nice area too and easy to reach on the SBahn.

The old school records store in Germany are scammers, I bought a t-shirt from the band Skrewdriver by mail and they didn't send it to me, they stole my money, I don't recommend it

Great selection. Unfortunately I didn't take my glasses with me so was unable to read tracklistings etc

I purchased a vinyl record from this shop in Berlin. The record was described as SEALED, NEW 100% INTACT. When received, upon placing the vinyl record on my turntable, i found out that the record is WARPED! I have sent a live movie of the record played on the turntable to show my problem. The shop asked me to ship back the record ON MY EXPENSE! claiming that they have no responsibility for the content of the sealed record, and that, by shipping the item, their job is done. This is a disgrace! was it MY responsibility for the damaged item they are selling? Well, this is what the people at oldschool-berlin think! after you buy and pay, theye have NO responsibility for the content of what they sold! And i say, I WILL NOT BUY ANYTHING AT SUCH SHOP!!! For all vinyl records attention!

Bought a vinyl that was selling for 14.95 EUR (price tag on the record). After paid i realized they charged 18.95 EUR. I asked why the amount differs, they told me that the price had changed and they hadn't updated the price tag. I decided not to return the record because I was in a hurry. A couple days later i checked the price on the web, it’s available for 9 EUR in some famous Berlin store… In other local record stores the price range is 10-14 EUR… Thanks, but never ever.

Very nice shop with a cosy atmosphere, a really good selection of records, and very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Definitely a place that any (dance) music lover in Berlin should visit!

Great offer - spent an hour going through their house selection.

Cute small(ish) record store, with good labeling system, a lot of electronic, hiphop, jazz, etc... records, and two listening stations. Very reasonable prices from the lower end of the spectrum, and helpful employee who is very knowledgeable about the music they sell, and also a vinyl dj 💃🏼😊 Every record is new and pre-sleeved for you to take home.

Cool record store with a great selection!

I flew all the way from South Africa to Berlin and OYE was thee recommended store and I would also recommend to someone else… Staff is way to friendly and helpful and they have a lot of music you want to buy 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

This is my favourite record store in Berlin for electronic music. Vibe and staff are always top notch, the selection is good and they have enough record players. Note of merit goes to the lady that helped me this morning: I came to buy one record and got out with three. She understood the sound I was looking for and came with different options, from records to labels. Great shop!

This is one of the two best record stores of Berlin. The other being Melting Point. Oye has two stores and it has been voted as no.47 In the list of the World’s Best Vinyl Stores by The Vinyl Factory. Why you may ask… three reasons - Toby the owner who is one of the kindest, knowledgable and wonderful people of Berlin…. Secondly, the great collection of records - predominantly dance, house, electro, new age pop BUT they have a huge stash of second hand records of amazing retro rock, OSTs, jazz, blues and more… thirdly, the prices - very generous in their assessment of records - I picked up 13 vinyls for 45 euros incl Beatles Rubber Soul, a double album of The Doors, a triple vinyl of The Last Waltz, two soul records, a Lennon record and more - and the vibe of the store is amazing with several listening stations and boxes of records that you can sift through. Toby you are an absolute sweetheart!! If you are in Berlin - then head to this store at Oderberger Street 4!!

Fantastic vinyl shop. A true Berliner institution. A lot to be discovered there. Also their online shop with in-store pick up is great. Highly recommend. True vinyl spirit

Great record selection with House and Techno labels. Prices were also fair. Service however wasn’t great.

Sorted only by price, not by genre. I think that's great, but it's not ideal if you're in a hurry. Very fair prices, friendly staff. Only one place to listen to records, but I've never had to wait.

For friends and regular customers, this shop might be great. First-time customers and collectors looking for something specific will be 100% disappointed. Thousands of records, but absolutely NO sorting! Rock next to brass band music next to 80s next to classical next to metal. Sorry, but for me, the visit was a complete disappointment! The shop has a great selection, and the people are nice. But it's a shame you can't find anything.

Best vinyl shop, great selection and even better prices. They offer a huge discount if you buy multiple records. Verdict: Really good stuff!

Great store in Berlin Wedding! Has a huge selection of records! If you're looking for something specific, this is the place to be! I'd love to come back...

Ich kann Pank Records nur weiter empfehlen. Wurde selber von jemand empfohlen. Coole Leute dort, vielen Dank!

a very unique vinyl cafe with great interior design and atmosphere. spent a few hours there, had pear chai latte and listened an awesome sun ra record. thank you for opening such a vibey place

I love this place! Everyone who works there is really nice and laid back, and the music is great. The design is superb and the atmosphere feels calm in the mornings and lively in the evenings. It’s become my favorite café in the neighborhood. I hope one day they decide to sell sandwiches or salty breakfasts, that would be a dream! Thanks for creating such a lovely space.

Great Music coffee and listening place! Great sound, rare vinyl to sell , coffee needs a little more attention and quality! Music events happening mostly weekends !

This place is a gem! Great idea, amazingly thought through with the different spaces that people can enjoy their cafe creations and music. The music selection is, furthermore, really interesting. Amazing Date spot!

I did not have a chance to experience vinyls, but I trust the reviews. Came for the matcha, they did not have berry one which I wanted to try, well, mango one was also in point :) I love the fact that syrups are handmade. Atmosphere was cozy. There is a place to work with your laptop.

The music selection is excellent, and it has some great CDs. The best part of this shop is the woman, I heard today was her first day at work, I bought a few vinyl records and left my wallet behind, but she waited for me and helped me to find it. I was so touched by her sincerity. I'll definitely come back next year. Thank you. You made my last day in Berlin.

I bought so many records I almost couldn’t afford to fly home! Thanks Mitch, you have so much knowledge and it was really fun talking to you. Old stuff and new stuff! See you next year for the big surprise party..! Brett

First record shop I visited in Berlin. Got a really good selection of house and techno. The guy working there was sound, he made a comment about my Rush Hour Records tote bag then we were talking about records and the Netherlands etc. Accepts Card & Cash which is always a bonus! Managed to pick up some nice records, good experience !

A cozy record store that specialises in techno / dance / house / electronica music BUT they also have a decent collection of Jas, soul, funk, pop, rock and indie stuff. Both nee and used vinyls are available here. They also have CDs! Great store run by an amazing man who refused to get photographed as he is shy hahaha! Great one hour I spent here - my first record store in Berlin - picked up Rolling Stones, Motown compilations, Lennon, Jazz and more. Highly recommend this store.

superb record store. best house music in town. also has a large collection of second hand vinyls. much love 🫶

Terrible Terrible service Really sensitive about listening to records treated like a kid (like told off like a toddler) Been playing records for over 25 years i know how to pick a records up and put it nicely before I'm buying If I'm buying the record for sure I'll touch it how I like Chillout To be fair the fella with the glasses was helpful But will never ever go back But a nice selection of tunes at oye records not so far from this place below Thanks oye records

First time visiting and loved the place. They have a big collection, friendly staff and smooth music selection on the BG. It was my first time playing LP and the guy who was working there had all the patience in the world. 10/10

I was carrying a big bag into the store and for two times, the two store owners tell me to put my bag at the corner. Why should I do this? So I look like a thief or what? It’s a 100 eur shoes I bought from Singblack bird then why should I put my expensive bag at your corner? If it get stolen whose responsible it is? I won’t even listen to your record I just wanna come in to feel the vibe! Then I leave. Plz find a way to respect everyone that enter your store and find a way to keep an eye on the records to not to be stolen!

Soultrade was open when I needed it to be and it did not disappoint. Good balance of new releases and used stuff with very great selection across MANY genres. They were playing some great soul music while I was looking for world, experimental and weird electronic music. This place has it all and a very healthy classic rock and indie section. Jazz looked fire. World section majority was reissue while i prefer used stuff i still picked up some stuff i was looking for. They were so polite and very accommodating with my toddler diggin with me so i can keep finding gold. The special collector stack at the counter was awesome, great place to get a rare gift for your relative that knows music with staff that is so helpful, this place will surprise you no attitude all love.

Have J-Jazz and special editions

Terrific experience and came home with a haul! Great, diverse selection of new and used LPs, friendly and helpful service too. Prices were very fair, especially the €2 and €5 "bargain bins", which had actual nice records in good condition!

Wonderful store. Very warm and kind people; just an overall great experience. They got me two records I had been looking for a while now. Gerne wieder :)

So, yesterday I visited Pop for the first time. Within minutes I found an album that I’ve been looking for, for several years, at a very reasonable price - Ummagumma by Pink Floyd. I’ve regularly seen lots of examples of this record for hugely exorbitant prices which I refused to pay, until yesterday! 🙏 I also picked up five more albums, two from the €2 bargain box! Thanks Pop! I’ll be back again….. Haven’t been there yet but the fact that for the next few years I’ll be regularly visiting family members that are now living around the corner from this shop in Berlin has just made my day!😁

Great store And customer service,wide selection small cosy place packed with records.i definitely recomend this place to all cratediggers visiting Berlin to come through!thanks Pop Hope i get to come back again.

Cosy and nice shop, super friendly owner with a large variety of vinyl. I will definitely come more often !

Great record store for second hand vinyl. Very good for classic and indie rock, plus a large jazz seleciton. If you're after techno go to another place (literally any other vinyl store) but if you're into rock and indie then come here. Very well priced and even the cheapest record I got (€10) was in great condition. Edit - just to note, I'm not saying they don't have techno records, which they do, as well as jazz, classical, R&B etc. It's more that I found Power Park has more classic rock and indie records in stock than other stores in the area.

This is a great record shop. I collect mostly proto/classic/post punk, psyche/freakbeat, UK/EU glam & soul/r&b & this shop does not disappoint. I’m primarily in the game for collecting 7” singles & while there were only a couple hundred to peruse through, I found some scores. The LP selection was off the charts & I saw some titles in there that I haven’t seen in shops in ages (looking at the many Cure, Damned, T-Rex, etc selections in the crates). Added bonus for hear the Happy Mondays upon entry & a super nice shop owner!!

The selection is top-notch. Whenever I visit, I get the urge to buy out the whole store & spend hours listening to new records. The owner is as friendly, helpful, and enthusiastic as they come. The prices are refreshingly reasonable.

Amazing selection of vinyls, cozy atmosphere inside and super kind and helpful owner! 100% would recommend!

One of the best record shops in Berlin! The owner was super friendly, and knowledgable. I wanted to buy so many records! Great collection of all genres and rare records. They have everything: Jazz, reggae, 50's to 80's, Goth/Industrial, Post-Punk, children's records and everything in between. I will definitely be coming back here next time I visit Berlin.

There is great collection of classic and garage Rock/punk bands. I bought two and definitely i go there again!

Best record store in town!

A real gem! I can’t believe I haven’t discovered this place earlier. My favorite record shop in Berlin so far. Great choice of stuff

Recently visited Purple Penny Records during my transatlantic stay in Berlin. It was one of six record stores that I visited, but was definitely the best. The owner was a great guy and super helpful.

Very helpful, but didn't quite have what I wanted. Such is buying secondhand records.

Tolle Auswahl und super Präsentation der Platten: es ist leicht, die Übersicht zu behalte. Die Räumlichkeit ist durchdacht angelegt und lädt zum entspannten Stöbern ein. Größter Pluspunkt für Enthusiasten: der Ladenbetreiber ist nicht nur freundlich und kommunikativ - zudem ist offensichtlich, wie viel Wert auf das Prüfen und Reinigen angekaufter Platten gelegt wird. Das stärkt das Vertrauen, dass hier jede Platte gecheckt wird, bevor sie bepreist und ihr Zustand bestimmt wird. Meine Anreise aus Pankow hat sich gelohnt ;-)

I was nearby on a business trip and would definitely come back. The selection is absolutely fantastic, and everything is so well organized. The owner is a very friendly person, which is reflected in the beautiful aesthetic of his store. Definitely worth a visit! I was nearby on a business trip and would definitely visit again. The selection is absolutely fantastic, and everything is very clearly laid out. The owner is a very friendly person, which is reflected in the beautiful aesthetic of his store. Definitely worth a visit!

A well-stocked, expertly run, bright and welcoming vinyl haven, a welcome contrast to the often dark record cellars of this city. Anyone who loves vinyl should definitely check this shop out.

Ever since the article in MINT magazine, a visit had been on my agenda. Yesterday, I went with Arnim. It was a very chic shop. The owner was tidy and organized, and he knew where everything was. We had a nice chat, and it wasn't the last time we were there. See you soon, Bernd We took 14 pieces of paper with us.

A truly great little place to buy music. Beautiful surroundings, a really clever interior design, simply quiet and clean. And number one: the man behind the counter, to whom a big thank you goes with my review. Highly recommended!

Unfortunately had a bad experience with this store :(. Ordered a CD online, it came pretty fast, but I was left disappointed when I received the package, as the disc inside did not match the album (it was not even the same artist) in a damaged jewel case that even had a sticker indicating “please exchange cd case”… Contacted customer service immediately, got an automated response a few days later about understaffing which was understandable and OK, got told I’d be contacted Monday onward and they never did reach out.. Truly a bummer since this was supposed to be a gift and instead I got scammed out of my money and left with no CD, which is hard to come by.

Best store to buy second hand LPs online. They have a great collection of used and new vinyls. For the ones I got the quality was always according to the grading - if not higher - and the prices were really fair. Delivery inside Germany is quite fast. I will definitely buy more and more.

Great shop. Wide selection of products. Good prices. Friendly service and customer care.

🔝 Quality seller very super friendly kind gesture that's all I could of asked for it's been an absolute pleasure to of dealt with you as always I'm always very super happy 😊 with my finds and purchases as always at very super incredible competitive prices and will always continue to use whenever I need anything from you I know where to find you so much appreciated big effortless thank you for your help support and I appreciate it very much big thanks 💯 krishna

Attractive pricing, Great quality condition, and Easy to order.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find my favorite band CD. However, the owner explained the situation thoroughly and kindly, which I really appreciated. I will definitely check back again! Thank you.

This was a great find if you're a genuine collector, the owner has an unique collection of all kinda of genres. We had a great time here listening to all types of records/artists we'd never heard of before the owner really takes pride in his store, understanding what you might like and just his general music knowledge was brilliant. We left some great vinyls to add to our collection and take back to Melbourne Australia, so happy we got the opportunity to visit on our last day in Berlin.

Great shop and a very friendly owner. My friends and I bought a record today, and he even gave us tips on what to visit in Berlin. Thanks again!

My favorite shop from now on ! The owner was super nice and helpful when you explain to him some of your favorites artists.

Amazing experience! I went a couple of weeks ago and wanted to buy some vinyl records for a friend. The store owner was not only great at recommending music but also kind and patient enough to listen to the vinyl with me until I found the ones that I liked the most. I will come back for sure on my next trip to Berlin! Thank you for your kindness!

This is such a great vinyl shop, found some really nice vinyls, the owner is so sound as well, he played my bands music and added it to his shop playlist as well, legend! Definitely go and check it out!

Been here a lot! Very polite owner who you can talk about music with no matter the genre, and VERY varied choice of records, CDs, and cassettes. At least to my tastes, this is the perfect record store and my personal go-to. Good prices as well and the conditions of the records vary from mint/sealed to used, so you can definitely find some treasure here!

Great store and great store manager! Large selection of used vinyl. I would say reasonably priced and in very good condition - clean, no scratches. Everything is well organized and the manager is happy to explain where you can find what you are looking for. I don't think you can leave empty handed. But allow sufficient time for your visit. You shouldn't rush it for the best experience. I probably stayed for over an hour and I would have stayed more if I had a bigger budget. Next time! Danke schön, Herr!

When you walk into the shop, you are instantly met with a kind “Hallo” from the clerk. Looking around, you find something for everyone. There was a wide assortment of vinyl including many curated bins of albums sorted by genre and artist, plus many cardboard boxes of €2 albums (you may have to sift through a lot of records to find a treasure), rare singles on the wall, boxes of curated singles, and my favorite -- an entire bookshelf of €1 unsorted singles (plus if you look in back you can see two more shelves). While I was digging, the clerk played the Velvet Underground, Grand Funk Railroad, and then Coldplay, so this might give you an idea of the store’s tastes. On impulse, I bought a German Odeon Beatles 45 picture sleeve from the wall for €15, and when I got home I found it was not as rare as I had thought and I could have gotten it for less online. I was in Berlin for a week and I liked this shop enough to go twice.

Highly recommend 😊 Great variety Excellent value Owner extremely kind, knowledgeable and friendly Thank you 🙏🏻 Warm regards, Adam Israel

Excellent service. A place I can recommend. Also as a beginner, hobbyist with a student horn you feel very welcome. The people there are super helpful and friendly. I know other places where I felt like a second class customer for not being a "professional musician".

Great place. Really good service. Good prices to fix your instrument

Came to look for saxophone mouthpieces. You can try them out on-site. The staff is very friendly.

Really great shop with lovely staff and an extensive selection of Vintage horns. I’ve brought my Martin into Gernot a few times for various small repairs and more recently for an overhaul. He always does great work and is really friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

One of the nicest music shop ever. Once you eneter you feel like HOME! Beautiful good mood people, super helpfull and kind. Large amount and variety of vintage saxophones, mouthpieces, reeds and top professional instrument repairs. Even stopping by unannounced you have a chance to try out things of your interest! Always a number one place to go for almost 7 years now! Hugs to the team!

Me and my girlfriend visited, the owner is one of the kindest record store owners we’ve met. Besides the amazing selection of records, we were also shown a record we might liked, and it was amazing! We bought it of course. Owner has great music knowledge which we happily shared to one another. Finally, he was not shy to recommend us an other record store to find a record we didn’t find in this place. Great experience!

If you love jazz, you're in the right place. Beautiful records, fair prices. Engel , the owner , is knowledgeable, kind, and truly helpful. I found this shop to have a special, almost ..magical atmosphere as Jazz

Can't rate this place any higher! Amazing collection of jazz vinyls and a large selection of music from all around the world. The owner Engel is super friendly and generous to share his love for music. 10/10 recommend to hang there if you love music!

Simply astounding level of selection for quality Jazz and Jazz Fusion LPs! Welcoming atmosphere as well. Engel, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and friendly.

Best record shop with true late 60s gems ✨❤️

Terrible Terrible service Really sensitive about listening to records treated like a kid (like told off like a toddler) Been playing records for over 25 years i know how to pick a records up and put it nicely before I'm buying If I'm buying the record for sure I'll touch it how I like Chillout To be fair the fella with the glasses was helpful But will never ever go back But a nice selection of tunes at oye records not so far from this place below Thanks oye records

Have J-Jazz and special editions

It seems redundant to write another review of this already recognized place, but they deserve every praise. The stock is excellent, you can actually try the instruments in an environment good enough to understand them, they know what they sell and they will listen to you and give advice. In case you don't know, the shop is highly specialized in synthesizers and they have a huge variety of modules for euro rack and even for other formats. There are highly complete systems in which you can try a module you are interested in. I wanted one that wasn't plugged and they connected it for my tests.

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff in the modular synth section of the store. As a beginner, I got some good advice, and their passion for the gear really came through. I got to try some amazing equipment, and I left feeling inspired. This will definitely be my go-to place for any future modular synth needs!

The place for synthie goodies. Modular eurorack sound tools for patching punters. Need a low pass filter? They got plenty! Aching for a mult? Get one here! Tired of your sequencer? Come here to freshen’ up your love for weird sounds.

I love this place! I already ordered several eurorack modules from them online and this was the first time I visited the store in Berlin. Super nice staff and you can try out modules yourself. There are several rooms with what can only be described as “Modular Heaven”.

I enjoy every visit to this store. From the wonderful gear on display to the welcoming and knowledgeable staff. I have sensory needs that make going to stores a challenge but here things are calm, and the lighting is on the low side, and I didn't notice any eye level light sources too. I haven't been to the showroom but the main store ticks all the right boxes for me. I don't know if this was intentional, but they've created a shopping experience that is more welcoming to a broader group of people and for that I'm grateful. I appreciate that I can purchase on the website and collect in store. This helps me a lot because there are days when I find communication very challenging and this means I only need to say a few things to collect my order. Then when I'm feeling more able for a good chat they always take their time with me and are happy to offer their time and advice when discussing a project I'm doing. Final notes; - Orders done online are processed quickly - You get customer support from real people - A model example of how 'brick and mortar' supersedes the online shopping experience - The store is full of shiny things which I'd love to buy

visiting from nyc - had a great experience here! it's a bit far out from the touristy areas so the prices are quite fair. extremely kind and helpful staff and great selection💜 (plus it's very near the plotzensee which you should also visit)

Really great selection of records. Condition is NM. Prices are lower than on Discogs. I found doors, Clash for the fraction of 15-20€

Awesome place, excellent deals.

I contacted them quite extensively about their classified ad regarding my mother's record collection, and nobody replied. I don't really know what to make of it. My mom lived in the 70s. So not just Marianne Rosenberg. But not at all ;) They supposedly were interested in European first editions. Not enough to warrant a reply. Well, maybe they're just too busy or they missed it. They probably get a lot of offers, those people.

I had chosen a Jimmy Cliff record on Discogs. The owner had to go to the warehouse twice to find the right record. No problem for me, but apparently it was for him. The record was marked NM/VG+. When I noticed that both the gatefold sleeve and the labels had markings (WOL/WOC), I returned the record. That was the end of the owner's patience. Even though he had the record in stock a second time, he gave me my money back and said he had no more time. It was an online item, after all?! Note: an online item is allowed to be of lower quality than a physical store item?! Customer service not for online customers!

They have a fantastic selection if you're into rock, metal, and CDs, all of which I am! I snagged some great finds here.

Mostly cds, rather rock heavy selection, you are only allowed to listen to 3 record PER VISIT, and the owner does really enforce this, so this is definitely not a place for digging

Nice shop, cool CDs for 3 EUR, grab a bargain!

Fantastic selection of vinyls, CDs and concert DVDs!

5 STARS SELLER. FAST DELIVERY. ITEM AS DESCRIBED. GREAT COMMUNICATION VERY HAPPY WITH. BEST REGARDS FROM BELGIUM PIERRE

I had my first skz album und that was pretty good

Loved it! So many different groups and merch definitely worth visiting

been here in Berlin for 5months and am never been this happy. so glad to found a korean shop where I can spend my euros to support BTS 💜 will definitely be back and purchase more

A bit far away from all but super cool Kpop shop, reasonably priced, with awesome staff, cool selection of all albums, lighsticks and all you need as a Stan. They also do pop up events around concerts. I did pull my biais in one of their gachas

Very overpriced.. not so many selections/options in albums. Very few enhypen based stuff… There were more albums/stuffs of the newer groups then enhypen which was a bit disappointing tbh. I went to neo tokyo and there was a price difference and they had so many options and albums 😭 there was a huge difference + my album was very damaged. Maybe my experience was just not that great. I also felt a little bit uncomfortable bc i felt like the cashier was watching me and didn’t seem very friendly to me😅 but the other workers were nice. The store itself is so nice decorated and has many BTS stuff which I think is great.

Got to take a peek at the Seven Record store and community space before it opens later this year. It's stunning. I love the design of the space and how welcoming it is. The staff are so friendly and I'm quite obsessed with the merch and products on offer. Be sure to check out the vintage equipment too! I don't even own a record player but might have to get one just so I can start collecting the vinyl from here - they are so beautifully designed!!! Love it!

I recently ordered from Seven Berlin and I’m extremely happy with everything. The quality is excellent, and the delivery was very quick. The packaging clearly had a lot of thought and love put into it, and they even included a few extra gifts, which was a really nice surprise. Overall, it feels like Glenn & Cryme genuinely care about what they do. Absolutely worth the purchase, and I’m excited to see what else they have to offer.

Absolutely thrilled with my order! I bought two T-shirts and both the quality and the design are outstanding. The pieces feel premium, fit perfectly, and look amazing. Shipping was super fast and the package came thoughtfully prepared — including a little extra. You can really feel the care and passion behind the brand. Highly recommended! I’ll definitely be ordering again.

Seven is a FLINTA-focused label that creates space for both established and undiscovered artists — and in my opinion, they’re doing a great job! The Seven team is warm, creative, professional, and open to everyone. The new store is beautifully designed. To me, the space feels like a mix between the former record shop Sound Metaphors and the Ice Bar at Berghain: minimalist, with sleek metal shelves, yet colorful. It sits somewhere between techno and funk — just like their own musical footprint. I’m very curious to see how this beautiful place will develop and where Seven will grow from here. I wish you the best

One of the coolest stores in town If you’re around, you gotta stop by Good vibes, good music, loveliest people 🫶🏻

Great local record shop in Steglitz. You can find excellent original LPs. The shop isn’t flooded with represses which I like. There’s 7-8 bins on the floor of 2-5€ records too for a bit of a dig. The listening station could use a tune up but otherwise a lovely little shop with great staff.

Staff is great, selection is also good!

Good Material and good quality products, but the most enjoyable thing is the friendly and kind employee. He vas a vast Knowledge about Music and gives good recommendations.

Best seller ever! we like him veeery much! Good 2nd hand collection with reasonable prices.

Great vinyl selection and service.

If you like music and want to buy some at a great price , check this place out. Great selection and easy to look for that special tune. The owners are great conversationists and have a great selection of posters on the wall.

Nice selection of electronic dance music. It is a little bit difficult to navigate there as I've found some psytrance on the house section and then more second hand CDs with unknown prices on the other part of the shop. Luckily the prices were fair :-) Also consider checking the shop's discogs seller profile. It seems there is a secret room with goa/trance stuff, not-available for random buyers. Fortunately I was armed with a list of available releases I wanted to get :-)

The stuff honestly wasnt bad at all but the staff was really just rude. Totally dumb rules like not being allowed to take ANY photos and have a miniature sign outside

Lots of new vinyl, but also a good amount of old German records, including some pressed in East Germany! If you find an old record you like, just go on Discogs and check average pricing and you can easily discuss the purchase with the shop owner.

Great collection of rock, jazz, blues, indies. Really few things of heavy metal on cd. Large collection of vinyls. Most of the prices are calculated on the go by the merchant, but they're good. 99% is second-hand stuff

Terrible Terrible service Really sensitive about listening to records treated like a kid (like told off like a toddler) Been playing records for over 25 years i know how to pick a records up and put it nicely before I'm buying If I'm buying the record for sure I'll touch it how I like Chillout To be fair the fella with the glasses was helpful But will never ever go back But a nice selection of tunes at oye records not so far from this place below Thanks oye records

Molly t-shirt! You can try the record before you buy. Neat. The store runs DJ events at night sometimes. My fav part of the store? Its name. I’m into sound and I’m into metaphors. And I like puns. The names hits multiple players.

Nice little shop with accommodating English-speaking staff. Many new releases and vintage on both 33s & 45s. Take a listen on 3 different tables to anything you want as long as you're gentle. You can get some info on the local scene here as well. They will order in product for pickup. Space is limited and boxes may be blocking the small amount of room there is to move around.

Thanks to the employee who helped us take a cute picture today 🫶🫶

Such a shame ive spent so so much time and money in here and I really did love spending time digging and to be fair found some amazing music But same old bad attitude strikes again in berlin rude rude rude I want be telling people anything good about the shop anymore afraid wont gonout of my way to bad mouth but wont push things out there like was before a friend mentioned he had been given Really bad service and i stuck up for the shop which in hindsight wish I hadnt Anyway wish everyone good luck with there digs

Package received today. A huge thank you for finding the records I've been looking for for years. Respect 🙏 Best regards, Cédric

Beautiful store which definitely has a soul. Besides amazing looking interior there is also unbelievable choice through many different genres. The prices are suprisingly low and the vinyls incredibly preserved, well-kept and sorted. You can clearly see that the owner puts his whole heart into the shop. I recommend without a doubt.

- Sound Vinyl Store Berlin (happy dog inside :-) ... cheap CDs, 1-3€ & 0,50€ 12"s and LPs / a great digging place with reasonable priced items, well placed from the outside, polite owner / second hand vinyl records)

Awesome selection inside in many styles. Top balance between prices and quality. I was actually surprised to see few early new wave, post-punk and EBM records. The person had a really detailed care for the vinyls to keep them clean without a scratch. Next time I go to Berlin, I will check this place again.

Small but with an interesting collection of you like classical music. And... Neue Deutsche Welle

👌 Great spot for deep digging! 👌 At first glance, it looked like the typical DYI-roots record store with abrupt service and maximalist poster decoration but it's surprising in many good ways: the used records are serviced, hand-cleaned and plastic covered before hitting the crates, the selection has a lot of pretty rare stuff and the records are sorted in subcategories (Krautrock, Neue Deutsche Welle to name only two). It's definitely worth a visit!!

People were super nice and genuinely helpful. He helped me find some great proper jazz drumming gems 🕺🕺🕺 Can’t wait to go back and check out the electronic section next time.

Probably my most favourite place in the world 🤓 Wide selection of records (mainly vinyl, but also CDs), friendly helpful staff, all kind of music genres, but heaven especially for electronic music lovers - large room in the back of the store, stuffed with thousands of records, is dedicated only to all kind of subgenres of techno, house, minimal, dnb, breakbeat, dubstep etc. I attach photos from my first visit in 2016, but they are still relevant even now in 2024. Will definitely come back any time again when in Berlin.

Amazing store, huge selection and a lovely guy on the front desk. Yes it's cash only but there is an ATM across the street. Yes it smells of cigarettes when you walk in, so what. You go for what you can find there and I walked out with some fantastic vinyl. As a tourist I loved it

Very interesting choices, and I find myself in here for hours on end. The unique atmosphere adds a lot! One of my faves to go to for record shopping! Sadly no card payment, I hope they'll add it.

Great selection of techno, minimal wave and a lot other different niche genres. The staff is authentic and friendly, and the selection is really big. The prices are around market, don't expect a charity, but they do have some fine vinyls on sale, if you're into a "Spend 20€ on a couple of vinyls and see what I get!" Mood. Worth planning a visit to, but remember to check their opening hours.

Great shop! Wide punk/hardcore selection: The guy was really friendly and helpful despite us not speaking German. Really appreciated the decor, old punk posters, and kitch paraphernalia. We picked up two records we'd never heard of, reasonable price, very good records. Cheers!

Fantastic! Super curation, instantly pulled out record that 6 other (also very good) shops did not have. Will definitely return!

A legendary punk record store that you'll revisit from time to time since they are constantly bringing new stuff. Both used and new records and tapes are available—many obscurities and rarities too. If you lack inspiration, ask the owner - he's knowledgeable and friendly. If you need info about the upcoming gigs in Berlin - this is your place too.

If you´re a punk and hardcore fan, this is the place to come to. If you´re not, you may as well stop reading. Hands down, of all record stores in Berlin (and not only Berlin) this is the place where you´ll find the best selection of punk, hardcore and to a lesser extent new wave, goth and indie records. Up to date with the latest releases, the real strength of the shop is the used section. Great selection of tapes, books and fanzines as well. The staff is very knowledgeable and often you will find HC/punk aficionados hanging out in the store. Prices are honest, but there are also bargain boxes where you can find real gems if you´re willing to spend some time bent down. Small store, but packed to the rafters with great records. The store to visit when in Berlin.

Small record store, with a great selection of music. Mainly punk (and related genres) and some nice synth records

lovely record store, the owner is really nice and even though they specialise in vinyls if you want a cd they can get it to you!

Great store. A lot of records across genres, a good atmosphere and friendly staff

Highly recommended. This shop has a nice collection spanning every genre, a welcoming atmosphere, and a great seller. Music lovers are sure to return for more records.

When I’m in Berlin record shops I’m searching for singles & wasn’t disappointed with the amount of boxes & crates to comb through today… This is a record collector’s shop - lots of great psyche, 70’s hard rock, prog, beat records on the wall. If I weren’t traveling with little ability to fit LP’s in my luggage I would be thrilled to take some titles off their walls. Great shop, one of the best in Berlin!

A heaven for music lover and vinyl worshipper. Great collection. Very likeable owner. And it happens to be very close to the best croissant cafe in Berlin (just few min walking). Just perfect for a Saturday morning!

Old School never die !! BIG UP !

I would appreciate it if the correct opening hours were displayed here on Google Maps, so I don't arrive after an hour's drive only to find the doors locked :) If it's okay, I'll remove the review or change it to a higher star rating :) I wanted to visit your restaurant in person, not just order online.

Unfortunately, my last visit was a very unpleasant experience. The employee was really unfriendly and not interested in the customers…

Very friendly service and good recommendations :)

Really great selection of stuff . At last found some Demented Are Go . Small discount on theee records i bought there. Defo i will return for some more )

DJ and French Globetrotter, I usually go to Berlin every year, so fan of this city. For the second year, I went to this Shop. I found again what I wanted, US Rap and RnB classics with good price and good condition. I recommend for all fans of Vinyls, and will come back next year. See Ya Vinyl A Gogo Team !!!

Okay so this is an amazing record store with some BANGERS littered throughout. Misfits on the wall??? I dug around for a little while and didn’t decide on anything, but man, I was tempted. Not the easiest space to look around but I’ve become comfortable with the fact that good record stores make you poke around. Racks can be a little stuffed, so pull the first handful out and flip through, then put that stack back nicely.

Whoever organises and catalogues the stock here is most welcome to come and re-organise my collection so neatly! It’s brilliantly laid out and curated with prolific artists having their own dedicated section, but then floor-to-ceiling alphabetised collections around the edges. Plenty of little step ladders on hand to help when you want to get to the high shelves as you rummage for a particular artist, it’s brilliantly catalogued. The staff are really friendly and helpful making this a great experience.

Great selection of good music. I was expecting a.bit more from the German scene pre-2000s but all those records are becoming pretty rare. Decent peices, but for some stuff they go berserk (over 50 euro) do to their rarities.

Really enjoyed visiting this record shop. The clerk was super kind helping me dig through the collection. Everything I bought was well priced. Would recommend!

Lovely atmosphere, good prices and Joachim running the place is such a nice guy.

I've been asked to provide a more detailed feedback. Here it is. Firstly, I was not particularly impressed by the selection. There are a lot of records, but also a lot of repetitions among them. Maybe the focus of this collection is not the same as my taste. It really is subjective. So I wouldn't deduct stars just on this basis. Secondly, the owner was smoking inside. Maybe it is normal for Berlin and the owner can do whatever they want, but I personally didn't like the smell of cigarettes while digging through vinyl. Finally, when I was paying, the owner didn't give me change assuming that I want to pay 30 instead of 24 Euro (or something like that). When I asked for change, he asked me to leave a review on Google, which I now did. I've felt like it was a manipulation, which I don't like.

I had a fantastic visit here (two, actually)! I love the "living room" feel with Alastair and his friends casually sipping, smoking and chatting. I was offered to join but sadly had to decline. Doesn't get any warmer than that! I found some great gems at VERY fair pricing. I will DEFINITELY go back the next time I'm in Berlin.

I brought my vintage Dual turntable here for a tuneup. Florian, the technician, is passionate for these machines and did a marvelous job calibrating and cleaning my turntable--and at a good price, too. He and owner Joe were also kind and helpful when I had a minor followup issue when I brought my Dual home (unrelated to the tuneup work). This shop is legit, unpretentious, and a definite spot to check out for any and all fans of secondhand LPs and vintage German hifi.

Solid record shop! Was pleased to hear Rose Tattoo, Modern Lovers, Joan Jett & the Who while I perused the singles stacked around the store. I’m primarily in the market for 7” records, especially while I travel & picked a slew of glam/soul/new wave gems from the crates. The LP selection looked large & priced well.

A very nice shop, good atmosphere with a music in background, perfect for take time and digging. Prices are really cheap and the selection is nice also, thank you!

Good selection, nice owner, but OMFG - it's like swimming in an ash tray in there. Was only able to endure about 10min. My clothes still reek of smoke.

If you like your record shops neat and smoke-free, you may want to give this one a pass : ) Great selection and nice prices though.

Nice shop and friendly owner. Good selection of vinyl.

This is Harry visited there out of blue. Sehr Danke fur hospitality to random asian! I was tourist and had to visit here with local vibes. Wish many people support this local business with kind mind. Thank you.

I think the owner was very disrespectful. I don’t usually write reviews but I have to help other folks not waste their time here if they’re looking for buying guitars.

Ever since my local luthier moved to another city, I’d been visiting multiple luthiers in Berlin and always walking away not satisfied. I kinda gave up on the search and got my own kit to do maintenance on my own. But the search resumed when I got a new bass with a bad case of fret sprout and I couldn’t be more happy that I found Mr Wolf. His service is top notch with extremely quick turnaround and affordable prices - I certainly got way more than what I paid for. The shop does not carry everything you’d find in large stores, but Mr Wolf will give you good advices and help you order what you need. Mr Wolf himself is very approachable and I really appreciate his patience with my terrible German. The bass now plays great after some filing and polishing, Mr Wolf even went the extra mile to adjust intonation and fasten the pots on top of my original request. All in all, a lovely experience and I undoubtedly will consider this shop first for all my guitar-related needs from now on.

Wolf is simply the best. A true gentleman, flawless service, reasonably priced, incredibly fast turn around, he speaks great English and is a charmer of a guy. He did an excellent job on both my 6 string steel and a very old damaged flamenco I took him. Looking to buy more guitars just so I can go back and have another conversation with him!

I went to buy a classical guitar. The owner was extremely helpful and took the time to guide me through the guitars that he has. The prices are relatively affordable, and he provides great advice and is very patient. I ended up having a long chat with him and left more than two hours later. Would recommend at 100%.

Super nice shop, great variety of cds - conveniently sorted by genre and alphabetically by artist. Fair prices, good condition of most products. And friendly owners as a cherry on top.

huge selected of music and tv. mostly in German but there is a big international section

The shop is very nice and organised. I went there and got everything I wanted. The prices are good, really affordable and the man at the cashier was kind and helpful. Definitely recommend if you like '80s-'10s rock and metal music!

Recommend to everyone who lived through the CDs’ heyday. A lot of choice and affordable prices; products’ selection turns into a treasure hunt. I’m definitely getting back and next time with a bigger budget :-)

Visited a couple of days ago. Friendly staff and a really good selection. They let you hear the CDs there's no hassle, they even let me use my own headphones. And a pretty good selection - depending on genre. Definitely recommend. Just make sure not to do what I did and spend way more than you planned!!
