  • 2010 | Best Birthday Party

    Sweat Records' five-year anniversary, dubbed Sweatstock, was certainly cause for celebration. In a city that hardly rewards independents, the continued success of the little-record-store-that-could is a symbol of hope for both the music retail business and Miami entrepreneurship. Thanks to the store's constant booster efforts for the local scenes, everyone has only good feelings about it, and every micro-scene converged on Sweat's fifth birthday party, held in the short, closed-off block...

  • 2008 | Best Record/CD Store

    Sweat Records is a hub of Miami underground culture. After the store opened in 2005, hurricanes soon damaged it and drove the shop from its original NE Second Avenue location. After a short homeless stint, it was back and in business farther up the street, in a back-patio annex of Churchill's Hideaway. The spot was buzzing but cramped, so earlier this year Sweat moved into new digs -- right next door. Done up in trademark aqua and purple, the location is spacious but still cozy.... More »

  • 2006 | Best Record/CD Store

    Last year we gave this little-indie-store-that-could the title of Best New Record Store. A year later, Sweat has won the hearts of all who deem themselves hip in Miami and has undergone some serious growing pains. The original location took a major beating from Hurricane Wilma, and the store was eventually relocated to a small warehouse at the back of English bar/longstanding live rock and roll venue, Churchill's. Could there be a better place for a record store We don't think so. Fans can... More »

    There are few retail destinations a time traveling Alligator from Space would bother with besides his usual Zorg repair shop, but when it comes to Earth, this one location is the one that I prefer to make a detour to and grab the best cup of coffee (my personal GOD CUP), pick up a new record for the Quothmobile Compact Disc player, and on a regular occasion - watch some of the best local acts from Earth via Miami Florida. Sweat Records has made it their mission to bring musical, cultural, community richness to an otherwise questionably existent outskirt of this dimension. I whole heartedly support the establishment and look down upon any perpetrator of wrong doing against it or their owners: LoLo & Jsin. They have made Earth a better place by providing an asset to this city of Miami. Much Love and Karma~!

    This place has a wide selection of cds and records. Another cool thing about it is that also hosts vegan waffle breakfast parties which are fun and delicious whether you are a vegan or not.
