Vintage Record Store in Seattle, WA

As Friedrich Nietzsche said, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Isn’t there just something about listening to music. It can be therapeutic, energizing, romantic, relaxing, and even a de-stresser. It doesn’t matter if you’re 7 or 87, you can get lost in a great song or album. if you’re looking to find some new or new-to-you artists or albums, try visiting Spin Cycle record and music shop in Seattle, WA.

In 2011, the shop opened out of necessity more than anything. The owner’s music collection was getting out of hand and simply too big for his apartment. Instead of paying more rent for a larger living space, he decided to rent a commercial location on Broadway on Capitol Hill. Customers looking to diversify their own music portfolio won’t be disappointed. The shop boasts old vinyl, new LPs, cassettes, DVDs, and even classic video game consoles.

The genres of music is as different as it is large. Visitors can expect to find everything from soul, punk, electronica, country, classic rock, and more. Customers looking to sell their records are in luck as Spin Cycle will pay to add to their own collection. So, while finding some new music, you can make a little cash by selling your old stuff.

Much of the cash brought in is spent sourcing new vinyl from indie distributors. This also helps them bring in new music for their customers.

Spin Cycle has ingratiated itself into the community as well. They also hold album release parties and live music events, along with some surprises along the way.
