    About as kvlt as it gets. Highly recommend for the old-school heads out there. Merch, CDs, vinyl, gear you won't find anywhere else in town, and of course Sadistic fuckin' Intent. \m/

    Shirts and cds

    Killer ass store! Always has the sickest stuff available from cds to records. Big assortment of shirts and patches and other cool miscellaneous items. Guy at the front has the best stories from his band Sadistic Intent. A bunch of cool signed posters from their different shows hung around the walls. Definitely coming back!

    This photo was taken during my last visit at Dark Realm Records. The underground metal store is run by two brothers who have a passion for this music and are also in a band themselves. They're really humble gents that love to give a hand to their customers and really know how to treat them well. They have some cools stuff that you won't find anywhere else in LA.

    such a cute homey feeling store! I love their variety of records and the vibe of the store is so…read morenice and inviting. the woman at the register was very nice as well!

    Came in here to buy wheels for my skateboard, and the lady (Jackie) was very very rude and made me…read morefeel very unwelcomed. She looked very bothered after I purchased wheels from her business and I even asked very kindly and respectfully if she could grip my board and she complained. As I was there working on my board , a couple of teenagers came in and she changed her attitude and energy towards them and made them feel welcomed but continued to be rude towards me and even muttered to the kids badly about me . Came to the shop because it was the only area that had the wheels I was looking for so I was really stoked to come in upon entering, she was really helpful and nice. I then asked her if she can help me with my grip tape and she seemed a little bothered. I stayed at the shop to work on my board because I figured I can just swap out the wheels I purchased . I grew up going to shops and hanging out in spaces where skateboarders are welcomed, but this is the first time where I felt like a burden for staying. They had younger folks coming in hanging out at the shop and I overheard her complain about how I had over stayed my welcome. I realize that I was getting treated like I was bothering her business. I asked her if there's anyway I can bother her for back to throw in my old wheels and she seem to be bothered stating that she didn't have any extra bags and mumbled it on her breath and handed me a bag with so much annoyance that I immediately left after that. This is not the space for skaters , I recommend going else where.

    I made a list of record shops to hit in LA for my birthday, and honestly, I wish I had started…read morehere. First off, Manny (the owner) is dope. Super chill, easy to talk to, and clearly has amazing taste in music. We chopped it up for a bit, and he even gave me a free Moonshine Records shirt because it was my birthday- didn't have to, but it meant a lot. Now let's talk vinyl... no matter what you're into, you'll find something. The Latin section is fire, the 80s selection is solid, and there's a perfect mix of new and old. Everything is clean, organized, and easy to dig through. I walked out with some amazing finds at great prices and had to seriously stop myself from buying more. Parking was easy, and the shop was super easy to find. I didn't want to gatekeep... but this spot is too good not to share. I'll definitely be back.

    Moonshine Records feels like one of those rare, off-the-beaten-path spots you almost don't want to…read moretell people about. It's the kind of place you stumble into and immediately realize you're about to lose track of time. Crate after crate, it's packed with deep cuts that you just don't see anywhere else. I was honestly blown away when I found an Ethiopian jazz record I've been listening to on Spotify for over a decade just sitting there. That moment alone made the entire visit worth it. There's a real sense that whoever curates this place actually cares about music beyond the obvious. It's not curated for trends--it's curated for discovery. Every section feels like a rabbit hole waiting to pull you in deeper. I walked in curious and walked out absolutely so effin stoked. If you're even remotely into digging for records, this place is a must. Staff was so tight!! Prices were reflective of the a1 quality and had so much variety I could have spent so much longer in it.
