Opening Hours:

TUE - FR: 02.00-20.00

About the shop / Genres:

Highly recommended and easily the best vinyl shop in Frankfurt if you ask me. It might occupy a small, unassuming spot on Friedberger Landstrasse, but I tend to say that the shop is already an influential music institution in the city of skyscrapers.

Tactile opened it’s doors back in 2010 if I am not mistaken and moved last year from Kaiserstraße (hidden between some Korean supermarkets and an Indian barber shop) to the aforementioned Friedberger Landstraße 114.

Tactile covers a wide range of Genres (new and second hand vinyl) from Ambient, Krautrock, Hip-Hop, House, Minimal to Soul/Funk, Global Beats, Independent…you name it! ;-)

When you visit Frankfurt, make sure to drop by, you won’t regret it. The owner, Klaus, is a eclectic walking music encyclopedia and will recommend you music releases that will most certainly not be on your radar.

Purchases:

Bitori ‎– Legend Of Funaná (The Forbidden Music of The Cape Verde Islands) Analog Africa

I somehow left the store with a copy of Blowfly – Blowfly on TV (Weird World) ;-)

Pannonica is a music store located in the heart oft he old town, Heidelberg, BW. Both, ambience and owners are charming and you can get a nice cup of Arabica coffee.

Junius Verlag. 2015” (just here/ or in one of the Hamburg record shops: http://www.junius-verlag.de/buecher/recorded ) You won`t be able to find this on amazon or somewhere else, so make sure you grab a copy as they are selling fast!

The shop stocks mostly DVDs but has also a decent amount of used and also some new records. Nothing to get tooooo excited about but as Optimal Records and Schallplattenzentrale are just a stone's throw away from this shop you might want to check this one out too. OST, Rock&Pop, Metal, Jazz...I even spotted a decent copy of Keziah Jones’ Blufunk Is A Fact in strong VG condition…! Cash only BTW

PIN-UP Comics & Vinyl

Ritterstr. 44 D - 50668 Köln Tel.: (0221) 136803

http://www.pinupcomic.de/ pinupcomics@netcologne.de

Opening hours:

MON-FR: 11:00 - 18:30 SAT: 10:00 - 16:00

Owner: Uwe Petritt

Genres:

Pop& Rock. Pin-up records is not necessarily record store as it carries mostly – you’re guessing right – comics. But the shop has also a huge amount of second vinyl records in stock. It is like a not very well sorted but large flea market bin: a lot of trash, but always with the chance to find the record you wanted to buy for years ;-) As the shop is just around the corner to Underdog Records and Black Diamond it’s definitely worth a visit.

Greenhell Records

Winkelstr.10 48143 Münster Germany Tel. +49 - (0)251 - 53 02 626

https://www.greenhell.de info@greenhell.de 

Opening hours: MON-FR: 12.00 - 19.00 SAT: 11.00 - 18.00

Genres: Greenhell Records is specialized in Punk, Garage, Doom, Independent, Experimental, Ambient releases. Excellent (worldwide) mail order. I’ve ordered a couple of time some records and couldn’t be more happier with their service. If you are in Münster, make sure to visit their shop. I found a Do Make Say Think and a Vic Chesnutt record and my son seems to like the shop too ;-) Nice staff.

Andrä Münster CD/LP Markt

Verspoel 21 48143 Münster Germany Tel. +49 251-48 29 01 0

http://www.cd-andrä.de/pages/produkte/lp.php https://www.facebook.com/cdandrae

Opening hours: MON-SAT: 10.00 - 20.00 

Genres: Pop& Rock, Jazz, Classical etc. Andrä has subs in Dortmund, Duisburg and Essen, too. I tend to say that they stock 90% CDs vs 10% Vinyl. Hence, if you dig CDs as well, you might have fun browsing through their inventory. “ELPI“ and “Das Ohr“ have closed their stores so this is one oft he two remaining records shops in Münster.
