Why buy from Relix
Relix has covered the intersection of funk, soul, psychedelia, and improvisational music since 1974. That history informs how this store is stocked: the titles here are chosen by people who read the records, not just the metadata. Relix also produces the Relix Sessions series, live recordings produced by Relix and pressed to vinyl on the Relix Vinyl label, which reflects the same editorial commitment applied to the store floor. When a title fits the catalog and the community, it earns a place here.
All records are new and sealed. Pre-order titles display a street date on the product page and ship when the label releases them. Vinyl ships in protective packaging designed for LPs. CDs ship in protective packaging.
