the warp shop saga is a sad tale that has NOTHING repeast NOTHING to
do with the label - they are separate limited companies. contrary to
popular belief the shop lost money year on year. it's owner (who is a
partner in warp label) decided enough was enough and took up an offer
from Fopp (a small indie chain in scotland) to turn it into a Fopp
franchise. it's still owned by the warp partner.
it is almost impossible to survive as a wholly independent record shop
in the current chain discount dominated climate.

tell me about it. actually most of mine went in to keeping bass
generator records and volume records in newcastle solvent.
i noticed volume had closed last weekend, when i went up there, which
was saddening; and as for what they've done to kebab row..... :(
