Los Angeles area record stores

What are some good record stores in LA and surrounding areas? So far I've been to Ameoba which kinda sucks for vinyl, and I've heard about Phusion Records. What else is good?

Well DMC records is gone http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...ecord+stores%22

I would recommend ordering online, not too much in the LA area.

I think the best place in L.A. is Ameoba on Sunset near Cauhenga. Sometimes you can nab great tunes in the used section, otherwise new titles are spotty, but not bad.
Happy Hunting!

If your looking for big names, check virgin mega store and tower records, might able to pick up popular tunes.

I also know of Astro records in glendale and Backside in burbank, not too much EDM in general, but I have found some decent stuff while searching through the masses of hip-hop.

Are you kidding me? That's probably the best place in Los Angeles.Lol

Eh, they do have a lot of stuff, but there's so much it's hard to find what you're looking for. I'd rather go to a smaller store with knowledgable staff and turntables to sample the tracks on. Quality over quantity...
