Also try to visit both the Rough Trade shops at Neals Yard in Covent
Garden, and Talbot Road, near Portobello Market. The Talbot Road store has
some of the best collections of IDM and other stuff - eg ambi-industrial
etc. Also, (ahem) the Piccadilly Tower's really good for dance these days
(meaning fairly cheap). Ambient Soho has limited stock and charges 2-3
more than Sister Ray, which is just opposite. Lastly try Selectadisc, also
in Berwick Street - even cheaper than Sister Ray, with loads of sections -
even an illbient.
Best Regards
