Starting out the day with a heavy bang. We are doing a daytime in-store at 1pm today at @superelectricrecs.bsky.social

Back when the tea shop Apa Kabar was next door to my space, they would host regular beatmaking events where folks would make new sounds using records from my shop. A selection of those has been compiled for this amazing new tape. Get one here or bug me for one. tokotape.bandcamp.com/album/toko-t...

Y'all like CDs? Selling a mess of 'em on Whatnot tomorrow. Don't miss out. whatnot.com/s/6uZoEYHS

Coming soon to the shop: muthaflippin' t-shirts.

Brought back a mess of vinyl for the shop from my trip to Iceland. www.instagram.com/p/DN82j3GEpbd

Beefing up the electronic section today with these — and many more — new arrivals.

Just stumbled upon this rare slab of country-fried filth from David Allen Coe.

Coming soon

Just like the title of Tom Scharpling's book: it never ends.

The lovely lovelies from Tone Poem just dropped off copies of the new album by Takako Minekawa. And it is a STUNNER. These aren't going to last long here so don't dawdle.

Lots more where that came from.

We will be open our regular hours tomorrow (July 4) and invite you to join us as we process the lamentable actions of our elected so-called leaders. The A/C will be on, and beer on hand if you're old enough. I'm also going to donate 50% of the sales to a local nonprofit. Let's lift each other up.

Hanging at the shop watching Alice Coltrane's public access show. Join me.

The last Tuesday of the month is nigh and we are once again hosting music trivia at the shop. Win some sweet prizes and enjoy the company of yr fellow music nerds. 6/24 @ 7pm!

If ya ain't busy with the big game today, head over to Lollipop Shoppe today and buy some records from me or some other amazing Portland dealers.

I picked this up in early Dec at @superelectricrecs.bsky.social Portland, and it’s been my bad news buffer in the car ever since.

Wanna be on the email list for the shop to get updates on what we are up to? DM your address and we'll keep ya informed.

With the changes at Meta, we are done with IG and have moved over to both Retro (retro.app/@superelectr...) and Pixelfed (pixelfed.social/superelectri...). Join us! Will be setting up a proper website soon as well. Big days coming!

Customer just sold this to the shop. Now comes the debate about whether I keep it or sell it.

If you're in the area, we are hosting a launch party for the amazing book on the band Huggy Bear. DJ Dog Daze kicks this off and then we'll watch a short doc on the UK tour HB and Bikini Kill did together. Starts at 6pm. Join us!

Get ready, friends. We are having a nice weekend long sale at the shop. 20% off all used vinyl from 11/29-12/1. Same goes for all the books on the racks from our business partner Lost Avenue Books. You'd be silly not to take advantage of this.

Got lots of stuff hitting the racks today. Open 12-6 today and tomorrow. Special sale coming up this weekend too!!

Anybody in the market for a noisy but still very listenable copy of Pylon's CHOMP? We got you covered if so.

Our pals at Jamboree Mgmt. are giving away two pairs of tickets to see Tropical Fuck Storm live at the Aladdin on Tuesday night. Hit the link to enter! www.instagram.com/p/DAzWJjuS2g...

Modern Folk gave us a track for a digital sampler iheartnoise.bandcamp.com/track/modern...

Still blissed out over last night's @themodernfolk.bsky.social and Will DeLee show at the shop. Keeping the vibes rolling today bouncing between Will's fantastic tape and this recently reissued Terry Riley masterpiece.

Also hitting the new arrivals bin are: Reissues of three vital '70s albums from saxophonist Joe McPhee, the latest from ambient duo Belong, and a long overdue repress of the debut album by psych-space rockers Ghost.

Just in: Galaxie 500 - UNCOLLECTED NOISE NEW YORK '88 - '90 A lovely double LP comp featuring rare and unreleased material from the dreampop trio. Early songs find them working in a very Feelies / VU vein but they soon found their slowcore groove.
