Black Friday 2016!

On Black Friday, November 25th, independent music retailers across the country, including MadCity Music Exchange, will be offering exclusive, made-for-that-day products.  The final list of exclusives is available right here!  We expect to have most of the releases in stock, but due to limited availability, we will not be taking any pre-orders or holding any items.

In addition to offering the exclusive Black Friday releases, we also will be holding our semi-annual Collectible Vinyl Sale!  All of the rare gems we’ve been keeping under lock and key will be available for your shopping enjoyment.  Special this year, there will be a large selection of Mobile Fidelity Audiophile LPs — everything from Abba to Zappa as well as gems from many different genres — hitting the floor for the first time!

And, we will have another 800+ new used LPs on the floor and ready for new homes!

To give you more time to shop the Black Friday releases and collectible vinyl, we will be opening early at 9 a.m.  Thank you for shopping local this holiday season!

Of course, we’ll be closed all day on Thursday November 24th due to turkey.

Follow us on FacebookTwitter, and/or Instagram for updated info and random nonsense!

Arts Extract Madison Calendar, March 6 through 12

bajasThe week’s best events, from our partners at Arts Extract!

THURSDAY MARCH 6 Bitchin’ Bajas, Watch Out!, Baird, Adcock and Deveraux. Mickey’s Tavern, 10 p.m.

Chicago’s masters of stargazing, flute-tinged electro-psych, Bitchin’ Bajas, have been good to us here in Madison, paying almost quarterly visits for the last couple years. But while we’ve come to rely on the fact that they come around pretty often, this show offers a couple more undeniably rare treats in the form of Chilean fuzz-rockers Watch Out! and a lysergic, improvised team-up from Spires That In The Sunset Rise’s Kathleen Baird, Conjuror’s Ian Adcock, and Samantha Glass’ Beau Devereaux. The Bajas are currently supporting their questionably titled (but killer) Drag City debut ‘Bitchitronics.’

Classixx, Gems. Majestic, 9 p.m.

With a syrupy mix that borrows as much from the maddeningly hooky Valerie-collective school of French house as it does from classic yacht-rock, Los Angeles’ Classixx are a refreshing addition to mainstream dance music, even if they tend to err on the side of instant gratification. The duo are currently touring behind last year’s luxuriously catchy full-length
