It’s a small place, but it’s absolutely packed with desirable titles, a lot of them rare original or early-edition pressings. There’s no particular speciality at this by-appointment-only shop—maybe it’s more focused on ’80s and ’90s European and American music—but you’re just as likely to find a sought-after Britpop record (from Radiohead to Blur) as you are an under-the-radar jazz release.

Run by Prapan “Pong” Amornpitaksuk, this Thonglor institution is legendary among Bangkok’s vinyl-collecting cohort.

Zudrangma Records stands apart in the Thai capital for its hyper-niche focus on heritage sounds, steering clear of mainstream pop in favor of Thailand's rich musical roots.
