Our first review!

Huge thanks to Chris Thorpe-Tracey for the wonderful write-up on his Substack, The Double Chorus: 

"Brighton’s North Laine neighbourhood is frazzled, fickle, hectic, showoffy, yet it can still feel like a magical spot when businesses like this show up.

"With frontage design by Soofiya, the core purpose of Dream Street Records bursts off the walls: to spark joy through LGBTQ+ musical nostalgia. Specifically, Rasheed understands that particular notion — of music collection and curation as a backbone of personal archiving — is especially important in queer culture, though also important to all of us. So the identity at the heart of Dream Street Records isn’t expressed via gatekeeping... What Dream Street Records instead leans into is offering sanctuary, holding space, facilitating liberation, through that powerful sense of a shared personal collection, history and music heritage — and that is a queer thing."

"Brighton's gorgeous new queer record shop" – The Double Chorus on Substack
