Browse records by genre
soundsfound searches independent record shops across the UK and Ireland by artist and album. These genre pages are a way in when you know the sound you're after but not the record yet. Each one gathers the artist guides we've written for that genre, from Britpop and post-punk to jazz, soul and hip-hop, with a little background on the music and where it comes from. Pick an artist and soundsfound shows you which shops have their records, with the format, edition and price for each copy. You never buy from soundsfound: every result links straight to the shop, and you check out with them.
