What is Hands On Records?

WWW.HANDSONRECORDS.CO.UK
'Hands On' 'Hands On' was started as a passion and hobby in 1994 and into a business in 1997
throu love for the music and has grown impressively over the period of 15 years since that time.
The Proprietor has met with over 20'000 DJs in every corner of the Globe during the years
and the business is now fully established on shop premises based in Albert Road in Southsea.

25'000+ records in stock plus many more available to order .
We have seen every worthy label and DJ in every style since 1990

The DJ's have played all over the World for all over for many years
Their experience and long term knowledge with the dance music industry
has allowed them to be able to cater for any kind of dance music taste and event.

As a record store, the shop stocks every type of dance music related
