the idm/ambient happenings in philadelphia. includes artist/dj profiles,
weekly happenings, venues and record stores. a great resource for the
philadelphia local.

i agree that the 700 club doesn't attract the kind of people i normally
want to be around, but sean oneal and erin anderson (flowchart) and chris
(tleilaxu) (and together they're mental floss) and john schenk and his wife
gloria (slipping into sublimity) play some of the best music to be heard in
the city. and besides, the 700 club has one of the best selections of beer
in the city.
if you get a chance, check out the magnetique nights at silk city (or any
other even happening there). silk city and fluid are in my opinion the
most pleasant venues in the city. silk city has been having some great
events, and fluid is catching up. silk city : 5th and spring garden.
fluid : between south and bainbridge on 4th street above the latest dish
next to 611 and cue.

they're not snobs, they're just stuck in thier own little house world. has
probably the best techno selection though. (jamie morris buys for them) i
don't know house, but it seems to be the house hub of philly.
i highly suggest spaceboy records. on 5th and south above zipperhead. the
store has the absolutely best selection in philadelphia, spanning most
genres of music. john and scott are the very nice and will help you find
anything you're looking for. if they don't have it in stock, they'll order
it and if you're not local, goto spaceboymusic.com and they'll ship
anything you want. if it's electronic and they don't have it, you can try
the philadelphia record exchange and then 611 in that order. the record
exchange is cheaper than 611. but you should start with spaceboy.
slurp, ok.
