There's Rhythm & Soul off Bourke St, but it's mainly house and prog record there, I don't remember noticing much trance.

But it's still a good all vinyl store.

What was the name of that place that Dave Seaman went to before his GU set by the way? The place where he got most of his Aussie stuff from?

Greville st, Prahran (off chapel) is great, Bridge rd. is okay for clothes (euphemism..etc).
Bizar in box hill also has some good clothes sometimes (it's in the whitehorse complex, not on the street, it's by the train station)

Dance arena (expensive) but sometimes good stuff
Cntrl Stn maybe
Dmc also

for gear, cc's light & sound can have some good stuff, but you'd have to look around or ask them.

Aite well, in Swanston St, there's Central Station Records, pretty commercial atmosphere (in my humble opinion). Further down is Bourke St, where there's HMV, which has a dance section, and Sanity with is Dance Arena, both commercial, yet you can find some cool . Down beside Sanity is a little lane, walk down there and you'll come across Rhythm & Soul, which is a funky little store mainly focusing on house, but has alotta progressive house/trance. Really chill atmosphere and cool people :)

Now in Chapel St, there's DMC Records on Commercial Rd (just off Chapel). This place is basically the centre of progressive in Melbourne. Lotsa cool cds/vinyls in there, and cool people. Down the back is a little room, catering for all things DnB. Further down Chapel is another Sanity, and One Stop DJ is down there as well?.. i dunno, seeing i've never been there, heheh :P

Like Astroboy said, check out Greville St which is off Chapel St. Tis a really nice street with a good atmosphere - not as hectic as Chapel. Lotsa nice cafes and there's Obese Records (for you're hiphoping needs) and another Rhythm & Soul + another cool store further down near the train line, although the name slips me :)

That's on the music side of things, for clothes its pretty much walking around the main part of the city - the square of Flinders St, Elizabeth, Swanston and up around Bourke St (and further). Chapel St also has a e load of clothes stores. A awesome road for clothes is Bridge Rd, which is a little out of the CBD.

Hope this helps a lil :)


Ciao
