Word on the Street

What People Say

Best record shop in the South Island, hands down. Hemi tracked down a first pressing of Tango in the Night for me in under a week. Absolute legend.

Josh M. Google

The listening station is genius — spent an hour discovering NZ artists I'd never heard of. Left with five records and zero regrets.

Aroha K. Google

Friday night gigs in a record shop? Only in Dunedin. The vibe is unreal and Hemi's curation is next level. We come every week.
