Guadalupe / West Campus · Austin
Exploded Records
New and used vinyl upstairs inside the Guadalupe JuiceLand, near Antone’s Record Shop.
Why it is worth visiting
Exploded Records is a shop you can walk past without seeing the bins: the records are upstairs inside JuiceLand on Guadalupe. Its electronic and hip-hop interests give the stop a different musical angle from nearby Antone’s. The move here also means that older references to the Duval location are no longer useful directions. For a short Guadalupe outing, the two shops make a coherent pair without a cross-city transfer.
What you will find
New and used vinyl, with electronic music and hip-hop among the reasons to browse. The selection occupies part of a host business rather than a separate large storefront.
Genre strengths: Electronic, Hip-Hop
Getting there
Upstairs inside JuiceLand at 2828 Guadalupe Street, near 29th Street. Antone’s Record Shop is at 2928 Guadalupe. Do not use the former Duval Street location.
Local tips
Look for the upstairs record area and confirm access if stairs are a concern. The host’s opening hours alone do not establish every detail of record-shop staffing or assistance.
Keep the music going
More music. More stories. A longer tour.

What Was Your First CD?
People forget plenty of purchases. Their first CD apparently isn’t one of them.
