Record stores in Brasília

Record shops reward the patient digger. Brasília, Distrito Federal has 6 mapped right now. That's 6 record shops mapped around Brasília. Every shop grades and prices differently, so the same record can be a bargain in one and a splurge in another — dig everywhere. Check the grading before you pay — a visual grade and a play grade are two different things.

This guide covers every record store we could verify in and around Brasília (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Dom Pedro Discos and Acervo, plus Musical Center Sebo de Discos. If a record shop's missing from Brasília's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

What the map tells us about record stores in Brasília

1 of the 6 list their opening hours on the map, which is genuinely useful — record shops keep shop hours, so the listed times are usually reliable.

The two mapped record stores sit on Bloco C Loja 60 CLN 412 and Loja 23 Subsolo SCLN 215 Bloco B — close enough to make a single outing of it.

Record digging tips for Brasília

A few things worth knowing before you work through Brasília's record stores:

• Inspect the seams at Dom Pedro Discos. Split seams and ring wear tell you how a record lived. Light wear is fine; trashed sleeves drag the value.
• Sleeves matter for value at Acervo. Original inner sleeves, inserts, posters — completeness counts. A bare record in a generic sleeve is worth less.
• The dollar bin is honest work. Nobody's getting rich off the dollar bin, but the joy-per-dollar ratio is unbeatable. Flip through all of it.
• The listening station is the test. If a record looks questionable, play the loud passages. That's where surface noise shows up.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Brasília — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in Brasília can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 6, or a record store we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

We don't list prices or stock — both change by the day. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 6 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
