We came to Toronto on a road trip from New Brunswick. This store was at the top of our list to check. Definitely a hidden gem! Lots of rare selections for people digging for samples. Staff we're enthusiastic and friendly. They seemed to really respect Eugene. Eugene seemed to have a conversation with each customer that came in there, whether he knew them personally or not. Eugene actually went out of his way to call some his contacts for me trying to find a local a local hip hop show for us to check out. Thank you Eugene and staff. It was a pleasure.
Well Deserved! Cold called Eugene on tour from Nova Scotia with a hip hop label IBEX Music Group from Halifax from Nova Scotia and this man treated us like family and let his perform in his shop on days of notice. He also dug his crates and found me 12 records from my favourite quartet The Ink Spots that came out back in the 30s, 40s, etc finding albums I have been searching for for years. Sold me 12 for 80$. I will never forget it. Thank you ❤️
Still that place! #HighlyRecommended
