New York hi-fi bar Public Records opens record store

Brooklyn hi-fi bar Public Records has opened an in-house record shop.

Known simply as The Store, the shop is based in the cafe area of the venue and officially opened two years ago. It's being run by DJ Tal Silberstein who also owns the Tel Aviv-based record shop bvrly. It will stock a wide range of music including brand new releases by a number of labels that the venue has partnered with such as Incienso, RVNG Intl., Pacific Rhythm and Sound Metaphors.

In addition to records, the shop will sell audio equipment, label merchandise and prints. It will be open at the venue between 10am and 7pm from Tuesdays to Sundays. 

Public Records originally opened in March of this year.

Last month, New York record shop Halcyon opened a new location in Brooklyn. LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy also opened a new cafe in the area called Daymoves over the summer.
