  • Vortex is an excellent place to shop for vinyl because interesting stuff always seems to find its way into their bins and the price tag is often quite fair for rare items. It also has a pretty diverse selection of cd's and dvd's and the location has got some character in itself as it sits atop a restaurant and is accessed through a door you could easily pass by a thousand times and not notice. In light of the good pulls I have had over the years at Vortex, I gotta show it some love, but in all honesty the selection is usually quite limited beyond one or two choice picks and the lack of a listening station leave much to be desired in terms of customer service. The current employee's seem to be of a higher elk than they previously were as I can recall many times throughout the years where one of the sardonically bitter employees working there have actually been rude to me because I wanted to listen to a record before buying it; something which should be very standard for a business that sells vinyl. These characters give record nerds like myself a bad name and perpetuate the stereotype that record store workers are a bunch of washed up DJ's who hide behind a pompous veil of exclusivity and sarcasm to mask their unfulfilled dreams... Oh wait, maybe that's not a common stereotype and I just made that up now, ah well. Overall, Vortex is a cool place and a good way to kill some time if you are stuck in the woefully boring and uninspired area that is Younge and Eglington. The old timer who owns the place is actually quite a character and should entertain (or possibly antagonize) you depending on your personality. I actually think he's quite funny, but his attempts at witty and satirical anecdotes may be unappreciated by the average person because even with a grain of salt, he is, without a doubt, the most sarcastic man in Toronto.
