Record Shops & Dances

Big up France massive!

My name is Troels Egern, I am from the Danish Sound Firehouse. I'm sorry I have to post in English. My french is not strong enough to write. I apologize if I am double posting, but I've searched the forum with no result.

I am going to Paris with my girlfriend from the 22.-26. may. I have two questions:

1. I want to take the opportunity to browse through some records.Can you recommend some nice record stores in Paris. I am not into the newer stuff. I prefer mideighties to midnineties dancehall, basically.

2. Can you recommend a couple of clubs or sound system dances that would be worth going to in the period mentioned above.


Thanks for any replies. If you prefer writing French, I do read some...

Nuff respect!

and for the dances check the section in this discution board called "Concerts & Sounds"

OK, thanks.

But are there any recommendable dances? Bigger ones? Nicer ones? Which local sounds are the baddest? I have to choose only one or two since I doubt my girlfriend will accept more than one evening of reggae on a romantic holiday.

this one could be nice. avaran is a big singer and the sounds invited are quiet big too

check the "sunseed" at newport too..regular on friday night....never been myself but I heard nice feedback and it s in a very nice area of the town too.

Is that not the WE of the telreama festival too? it worth checking

have a good french time
