Underground Electronic Vinyl in Birmingham

Set inside a Grade II listed building dating back to the 1700s in Birmingham's historic Gun Quarter, 3 Phase Records is an independent record shop specialising in underground electronic music, alongside house, techno, trance, drum & bass, Northern Soul, rock, pop and more.

Spread across two floors, the shop is home to thousands of new and used vinyl records, listening stations and regular new arrivals. Whether you're searching for a rare original pressing, building your collection or just enjoying a proper dig through the bins, the focus is on discovering music the way it should be.

3 Phase Records has grown from years of selling vinyl online through our website, Discogs and eBay, but the record shop is different. A large amount of our stock is only available in-store, with records being added to the shelves every week.

If you're looking for records you won't always find online, or simply miss spending an afternoon digging through the bins, you'll feel right at home.
