Opened in 2008, Souffle Continu quickly became one of the musical stars of the neighbourhood thanks to its owners, Bernard and Théo, a pair passionate about vinyl and obsessed with discovering the newest releases, while never forgetting the fundamentals. From jazz improv to harsh noise, from indie rock to black metal, the stands groan with rare treasures. It's the sort of place where even the most knowledgeable music lover can get happily confused by the avalanche of material, and lose hours at the listening stations.
Bernard and Théo also take their selection to festivals (you can find them every year at Village Label at Villette Sonique) and organise free showcases at the shop (which also sells lots of books and DVDs).
