Sad, but true. Syntax Music, one of the very few (and certainly largest by far) vinyl record distributors in North America, is closing its doors today. Syntax supplies the majority of the records you find in local dance music record shops accross the country. I think their email to all of the retailers sums it up best...
| quote: | Email from Syntax
Hello All,
After over 10 years and countless records, Syntax is closing its doors.
Digital distribution, closing stores, a weak dollar, a poor economy and the rising cost of every aspect of distributing vinyl have brought us to an end.
We're all very sad here as this has been our passion and livelihood for as long as we've been "adults", but the time has come to move on.
It has been a pleasure to deal with you (almost all of you!)
This Friday, January 11th will be our last day. Our phones are no longer working so if you need to contact anyone here please e-mail orders@syntaxmusic.com
Best of luck with all your endeavors.
Sincerely,
The Syntax Crew

Whether you prefer vinyl or CD, it is a sad day. |

Speaking of which...are there any vinyl shops left in ATL? I don't care what genre they specialize in; I want my vinyl :D |

Only hip-hop ones really. Ear Wax on Spring St. just south of North Ave. There's also Wax 'n Fax in Little 5 Points that has some vintage and top 40 stuff -- although I don't know if they're around any more, I haven't been in that area lately. |
