Hello There,
i wonder, if there are alternatives to That´s Music stores.
Not that they are bad, i´ve been there a couple of times and bought stuff, but i am looking for smaller, the not-so-shiny-mall-style of shops that have independent and non-chart music records.
If Muse and Placebo can make it to Singapore, i am sure there must be more of that music available here, and not only the big bands of that genre.
Thanks for any help
Regards

I was in the shopping centre opposite Funan (North Bridge Rd), think its called Advent and noticed some independent music stores on the top floor.

I've seen a lot of modern postpunk (editors, snow patrol, kaiser chiefs etc)at Grammaphone as well.

HMV should carry left-of-the-center artists too. The CDs are imported from the US though so they may be more expensive than expected. You could also try Borders in Wheelock place.
I still wished that there something like Amazon MP3 for Singapore (stupid georestrictions...)

Noroelle: The shop "Cat Socrats" has some local and Asian indie music CDs. Albums of local indie artists like "Aspidistrafly" can be found there. If you are interest I can bring you there after work. The boss is my good friend.

Music School

Thinkin of opening a shop selling musical instruments and later perhaps some sort of a music school. Feasible in Singpare?

Should be feasible since many kids in schools study music and musical instruments, so parents would need to be instruments or have coaches to teach....
