[OT] Where do you buy CD's by electronic artists?
Seems like a stupid question, but the likes of HMV, Play, and Amazon often don't have stuff I want to buy. Maybe new releases, but not back catalogues.
Any recommendations? I'm mainly after stuff on the likes of Warp and Planet Mu.

Re: [OT] Where do you buy CD's by electronic artists?
I am in NYC so I try to shop locally at TurntableLab and Other Music whenever possible.
The stuff I can't find there I typically get from Amazon in all honesty. They have a better selection than you would expect and you can load up on used, older cds for cheap because they aggregate from tons of used cd retailers (look for the "____ in used and new" section) which is good for finding cds you want to own, but don't love or buying cd copies of vinyl stuff, etc.

Dunno specifically about the kind of cd's you're looking for but I pretty much do 95% of my cd shopping between play.com, amazon and ebay.

Ditto, pretty rare I can't find what I need on Amazon or Ebay.

For the labels you mentioned just buy FLAC's from www.bleep.com and burn the CD's yourself (if you really, really need a physical CD).
bleep.com is run by warp records, and you will find pretty much the whole back catalog on there for a very reasonable price

+1 for bleep.com - got an old Planet Mu album there that was pretty much impossible to get elsewhere. Web interface - unlike beatport - was fast and efficient...

Juno Records: http://www.juno.co.uk or http://www.junodownload.com
Prices can be iffy sometimes, but the service is excellent. They almost always have 1~ min samples of everything as well, so a great place to try new music.
Also check http://www.boomkat.com - though I still don't forgive them their review of Secede's "Vega Libre".

discogs.com is really cool- its not a shop, but a record information wiki, but people who have copies to sell can post in the album description.

I've actually got a bunch of stuff on my half.com store:

It's all over the place so far as genre, but everything listed is as described - I take care of my customers on ebay, and there are actually a few guys in here who have gotten some NI manuals from me as well, just through paypal.
