B-Side Records

The Grid’s 90s record shop: vinyl, CDs and tapes, this week’s chart on the TV, the all-time greats on the turntable and a jukebox anyone in the shop can pick.

Walk in

What’s inside

  • The vinyl islands — records on edge in their bins by genre — pop, rock, hip-hop, R&B and soul, dance, country — with this week’s chart face out on the wall.
  • The CD wall — jewel cases the length of the shop, covers face out on top and spines below.
  • Tapes — two cassette towers by the window: recordings from 1907 to 1949.
  • The racks — press E at any rack to see its songs and search its genre; the genre racks change every couple of hours.
  • The turntable — drop the needle and the shop plays the all-time greats, one record after another.
  • The jukebox — pick the next song for everyone in the shop: from the chart, the greats or a search.
  • The TV — the music videos of whatever is playing, with the B-Side sting between songs.

One sound system

The shop plays one song at a time, the same second for everyone inside: jukebox picks first, then the turntable while its needle is down, then this week’s chart. When the shop is empty, nothing plays.

Questions people ask

What is B-Side Records?
A 90s record shop in the Grid, beside the Galleria Cinema: vinyl in the bins, a wall of CDs, cassette towers, this week’s chart on the TV, a turntable that plays the all-time greats and a jukebox where anyone in the shop picks the next song.
Is it free?
Yes. Walking in, listening and picking songs on the jukebox are free, for guests and accounts alike.
Where does the music come from?
From YouTube: every song plays in YouTube’s own player, its video on the shop’s TV. The chart is YouTube’s weekly top music videos in the United States and Canada.
How does the jukebox work?
Walk up to it and press E (on a phone, tap its button), then pick from this week’s chart, the all-time greats or a search. Your pick plays next for everyone in the shop. Two picks can wait per person, twelve in all.
Can I buy records there?
No. The shelves are for browsing and the music is to listen to together in the shop.
