Traffic Record Store was opened April of 2018 by owner Manuel Barba, a Los Angeles born mobile and radio DJ with a 20 year background in concert promotion and event coordination. Having grown up in a musical family, Manuel delved into the world of vinyl record collection at a young age. As a result, Traffic Records specializes in all genres of music, with an emphasis on analog and audiophile record equipment along with a unique selection of rare and collectible vinyl records. Due to its intimate size, Traffic Records has quickly become known for our commitment to quality over quantity. Manuel takes special pride in making sure the merchandise of the store is of the highest quality and condition with most records in the VG+ to NM category and all audio gear vetted and serviced by audio technicians before ever hitting the floor.

Conveniently located in the heart of Downtown Atascadero, seconds off the 101 Fwy on Traffic Way, Traffic Records is a must visit destination for all music, vinyl and audiophile enthusiasts. From the most advanced record collector to the newly indoctrinated, this store will not disappoint. We hope you’ll make Traffic Records your one stop for all analog related needs whether you’re local to our area or just passing through.

We look forward to greeting you and serving your vinyl record/music needs.
