and live on Freeview channel 276
Timewarp Sounds, on North Seaton Road, sells a large selection of used vinyl records, as well as buying and selling CDs, tapes, DVDs, books, vintage HiFi, and retro clothing.
Owner Alan Sandland said: “I moved to the area a few years ago and immediately saw the potential to fill a gaping vinyl hole.

“With the new train connections and the cinema complex on their way, I see a bright future for the area and the small independent guys like ourselves.”
Alan has bought and sold music throughout his adult life, but this is his first brick and mortar shop.
Timewarp also offers a vinyl cleaning service and has a disc flattening machine from Japan for repairing warped records.
