Once again diggin on the island of tenerife turned out to be serious business and much fun. Together with fellow digger, dealer and DJ www.mixcloud.com/DJSirG I raided three stores and found lots of niceties everywhere.
Aguacate Soul in Santa Cruz: Featured at length in the last records raid, the shop caters soul, funk, disco, hip hop and dance classics plus CDs and tapes from the local scene and equipment for sprayers.
Jumpingman Reocrds in La Laguna - excellent selection of new and used jazz, soul, pop and rock music, with small world factor: the boss turned out to be the brother of Sir G.'s old friend from madrid.
Aguere Music Store / La Laguna - heavy and surprising 2nd hand selection with nice barrio vibes. Plus if you want to do research on popular music on the canaries, THIS is the source, as the CEO also published a series of books on everything pop on the inslands, from beat to punk.
This is a little vinyl only selection with local beat & outernational funk.
