Butter Beats is a household name in this northern city of ours. Responsible for serving up the freshest in urban culture, collectables and quite obviously, beats... since the summer of '98. That's ten years this summer baby!
Butter Beats can be an intimidating store to walk into, if you're not all up and down with record knowledge.
GoMA really is the best thing to happen in Brisbane, culturally, since Lord Mayor Jim Soorley left the office. If you’re looking for a gift or simply rewarding yourself for having never voted for ol’ mate Jim in the first place, then the Gallery Store Modern is the place to find all your culturally explicit novelty and educational resources.
For all of you out there who watched Search For the Next Pussycat Doll and have longed to 'get your burlesque on' ever since, you can now breathe easy: there is finally a store that caters to your every (saucy) need.

Was it '99 when Rocking Horse Records moved to Albert Street? Does anyone remember? Not that it really matters, the place still exudes that so-familiar-it's-almost-family feel. So much so in fact that the store workers will blatantly ignore you and scowl at you like you asked them to turn down their stereo when you go to make a purchase.
