A new record store just opened in Castlemaine, proving vinyl is still on the rise

Opening in early October, Record Low is the newest store to open in Castlemaine dedicated to the music lovers in the region.

What began as an online store soon grew into something bigger, and on October 8 the doors swung open at 203-205 Barker st to physical store.

Stocking everything from classic hip hop vinyls (and every other genre under the sun), music autobiographies to one-off quirky pins and magazines, Record Low is one of those places where it’s hard to “just browse”.

Perhaps 14 years ago opening a vinyl store could be a dangerous game, but the resurgence is still booming, with news in 2014 vinyl sales increased by 127%. It’s marked a growth for the industry for the 10th year in a row, and it’s replicated in America as well.

Find out more about the store via their website, or keep up to date with new stock and happenings via their Facebook page.

Record Low is open Tues 10am-3pm; Weds-Fri 10am-6pm; Sat 10am-2pm and Sun 10am-4pm and is located at Shop 3, 203 – 205 Barker Street, Castlemaine.
