Here’s another bloodsucker: While the Transilwanija sells its CDs at top prices, you are confronted with pure nostalgia here. But first you have to find the store as it is well-hidden in the backyard of the Crab House restaurant. The search pays off as you will spend at least as much time there (you can’t get through 50,000 CDs that easily). But don’t worry: the stuff is well-assorted and you won’t search long if you know what you want. The system is based on countries, so look for New German Music, Old German Music or Very old French Music.

Above all fans of old CDs will get their share. Scandinavian World Music and Old US Rock complete the musical roundtrip and get us to the titles. The Transilwanija’s offer includes hits from the GDR as well as Japanese pop, rare electronic music as well as very rare electronic music – and if you get lost, you can still ask the profound shop assistant for help.
