Staff Picks
The records our crew can't shut up about — hand-picked by the people who live in the bins. Staff picks at Wax Trax.
Staff Picks
There's no algorithm here, just opinions — strong ones. These are the records the Wax Trax crew is personally championing right now: the new release we keep pulling for the listening station, the reissue we're thrilled is finally back, the deep cut we think you're sleeping on. Working in a record store means living in the music, and this section is where that shows. Trust the people who dig for a living.
What You'll Find Here
A rotating, hand-curated selection of records our staff genuinely love — across every genre, from buzzy new releases to overlooked classics and personal obsessions. It changes as our enthusiasms do. If you like being pointed somewhere you wouldn't have looked yourself, this is your section.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are staff picks chosen?
By actual humans who work here and love this stuff — no algorithm. Each pick is something a staff member is personally into right now.
How often does this change?
Regularly — it rotates as new records grab us and our recommendations evolve. Worth checking back for fresh picks.
Are these only new releases?
Not at all — a great staff pick might be a brand-new LP or a reissue we love.
