Event Organisers · Amsterdam
Distortion is a small independent record store in the Jordaan, one of the oldest parts of Amsterdam’s center. It’s not a flashy spot, just a proper shop for people who actually care about digging through vinyl and CDs. You’ll find new and second-hand stuff, plus a solid amount of collector’s items if you’re hunting for something specific. The vibe is straightforward: walk in, browse, leave with something you didn’t know you needed. They keep their Discogs catalog updated every workday, so if you’re the type to obsess over a rare pressing, that’s where you’ll want to look. Just note that those catalog items are sealed, so you can’t listen before you buy. In-store, though, you can actually flip through the racks like it’s 1999. Hours are a bit specific: closed Mondays and Sundays, open Tuesday to Saturday, with a late night on Thursdays until 21:00. Worth a stop if you’re already wandering around the Jordaan and want to support an independent shop that’s been doing its thing without any…
