Default The Music Tables


The most important area of the shop is also the largest and usually most jam-packed. Wide metal tables take up the majority of the shop, each one laden with albums both old and new in various forms. There are so many tables that they are very carefully set up to just barely allow enough space for customers to walk past each other in the makeshift aisles. The tables, while regularly fixed to the floor, have the added benefit of being able to be banished to the back room by the shopkeeper to open up the floor space for shows and events. Unfortunately, this means that with each visit, you may find yourself searching for the table you wish to find, as it could turn up in a different area each day.

All types of recording media can be found on these tables - some are full of records, their jackets carefully arranged to be flipped through without damaging the vinyl within. Others are stacked with cassette tapes, the spines of their plastic casings turned upward to display the names of bands and albums. More still bear old compact discs in their jewel cases, in mint condition unless labeled otherwise. While not as plentiful, 8-track tapes and shellac records can also be found as well; the appropriate devices to play all of these things, paired with large over-ear headphones, can also be found at each table.

While a great many of the tables are dedicated to well-known Muggle recording formats, a fair amount of them are also dedicated to "item albums" as well. Small boxes bearing a band and album name litter these tables, stacked together haphazardly; inside are items the size of a knut, varying in colour and shape dependent on the box's label. A single tap with a wand will cause the album to begin to play aloud; should one choose to, the album can also be stuck behind the ear to be played privately, so as to not disturb others.

Feel free to browse and sample music from bands both new & old, Muggle & Wizard. Just remember - you break it, you bought it, and some of the items could turn out to be fairly pricey.

She still had to apply and get in, but maybe she could work here part time while she did that? Though she was hoping she might end up with some record deal possibly with this internship.

"A new shipment you say? Maybe I'll have to help sort it and see what we got." He knew her weakness and she didn't at all enjoy it, okay maybe she did. She bought so much from this shop alone when she was home. It was a wonder her entire paycheck didn't just go back to it. Not that he would complain money was money so he should be excite she spent so much of it.

A blush might have crossed her face as he said about her not being able to stay away from him. How did he know? "It pays to have hot artist pictures up where you work all the time." He was an artist and his picture probably was around here some where so not a full lie. Plus Nigel Barrington was a poster she purposefully put above the counter the other day. "No problem I can stay." She'd have to put her purse down and glancing around there were two boys that she didn't feel could be trusted at the moment. Maybe she'd keep her eye on them.

"Oh I'm going to put The Sirens on the recording schedule to. We want to do a bit before the talent show like we did last year." That was coming up quickly.
Last year at school, then she'd really be considered an adult, wouldn't she? Atticus returned her grin with a smirky one of his own. "I'm sure we can come to some sort of an arrangement." Time would tell when it came to it, but he would admit that he wouldn't mind having here more than just the weekends. Her presence was also good for business. "I was disappointed you only wanted to work weekends this summer, you know." But he understood why.

"That's right, a new shipment," he grinned easily as Nat mentioned staying to look through it, possibly even sort it for him. He had a feeling she'd react that way, but many got excited about new merchandise. "I'm sure you'll find at least one or two must have items in there."

Atticus couldn't help but to chuckle. Hot artists? Hmm, he supposed there was something to be said about the rock star, and there were quite a few posters and pictures hanging up. "Even better when they're in person though, right?" He laughed more, just teasing her a little. "Great." He didn't think it would be to hard to convince her to stay anyway.

"Okay, I'm sure there are a few open spots." The schedule did tend to fill up quickly, especially in the summer, but he could always find room for her and her band.

He was actually think about keeping her own next summer and more. This would be amazing. Going to WADA and working here with him. Even the thought put a bigger grin on her face. That smile faded a bit when he said he was disappointed that she only wanted weekends. "I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to work at the record label. I was hoping to get a foot in the door for the band." He understood, didn't he? "I've missed it here though." She wasn't lying she really did miss it here.

She was going to have to look through that shipment. Though she wasn't sure there had been any new TDK stuff out recently. Rumors were there was possibly a new album in the works, but she had been hearing that for awhile. "Alright I'll put that on my list of things to do. I can have it all unpacked and shelved in no time." She was sure she could do a good job at it and it wouldn't take that long. Plus she'd be the first to find what's new and what she wanted.

He got her joke didn't he? He saw right through it. She was certainly blushing a bit and started fixing some of the albums again, even though they didn't need fixed. "Yes of course, is there one here in person?" She pretended to look around but then looked at him with a grin. "Awesome just let me know what'a available and we will be there." The band loved recording here.

Katherine had begun doing things she enjoyed slowly, but firmly since... everything, and so she had decided to come here on her free time on the Alley. She was usually only allowed two days in the whole summer to come here, and this was (thankfully) her first day. So she stepped inside and looked around. She wanted to listen to piano things, and soon enough, she located the muggle side. She walked there and started browsing. She had no idea who to listen to apart from the classics, but she wasn't in a hurry anyway...

She'd passed this place so many times but never gone in and today seemed as good a day as any to check out the music store. Maybe Junia could find something for a dance party. She hadn't had one yet with her family this summer, which was completely unacceptable. Yes, she needed something upbeat with a good rhythm. She did. Oh! She could also see if there was anything from TDK in here that she could get. Then she could send it to West to be autographed. He wouldn't mind at all.

The place was more crowded than she'd anticipated and the fourteen year old was thankful that she was small, as she found herself needing to squeeze through small spaces in order to get around those larger than her. Plus she couldn't quite tell if there was any rhyme or reason to the way the music was organized, so she was kind of lost. So lost that she didn't see her fellow Hogwartian until she was shoulder-to-shoulder with her. ...Katherine. Yeah. That was kind of awkward what with the way the other girl used to look at Sam. What would Kitty do in a situation like this, she wondered? Hm...

"Hey." It had been decided that Kitty would keep her friends close and her enemies closer and while Junia hadn't decided if Katherine was an enemy just yet, it was best to play it on the safe side of things. She smiled big and regarded the girl curiously.

Katherine didn't KNOW what to do, which one to buy, how to play, if she could even play a sample here - in essence, she had no idea about music and this shop, which made her extremely anxious. It was a disaster for a Ravenclaw to just not know. Someone was already beside her, judging her, she knew. She lifted her head to look at the person and maybe ask - Junia... this was Junia, wasn't it? The girl Samuel was dating. Katherine wondered if the girl knew or guessed.

"Hi." She smiled back, although not as big. She still lacked in that, and she bet this was a contributing factor to Samuel's decision - even though Genny had insisted that Katherine had just been late. She wondered how long Junia knew him and how many special moments they had had. But - none of this mattered. She was over Samuel. She hadn't even seen him that much since Genny told her he was dating someone else. She was over, yeah.

Except, one wondered... and thus, Katherine regarded Junia curiously back.

Junia wondered if she was supposed to keep staring until Katherine looked away. Would that make her the winner? Was there even a winner when stuff like this happened? Was this even a thing? Maybe it wasn't. Maybe she didn't have to feel weird at all. ...Maybe.

Growing up was SO weird.

"So are you looking for anything specific? I can't really figure out how the music is organized." Shifting from one foot to the other, the brunette tried at conversation. It was decidedly better than having a staring contest and not blinking was going to make her eyes watery, you know? And she'd just managed to figure out mascara, so that wouldn't be good.

Io traipsed around the music shop like she owned the place. She had a silver slick flash tucked into the band of her nylons and every once in a while she would pause in flicking through vinyls to slip a hand into the band and pull out the flask for a long draught of fruit punch flavored rum. It warmed her bones, kept her loose and helped keep the boredom retirement from the academy had brought into her life.

stupid academy. stupid barton. he'd ruined all her plans by falling grossly in love with that ballerina bore and her sloppy little snot kids.

all that potential wasted and now hers too, right down the drain. She took another swig, wiping her mouth on the sleeve of her leather jacket. the drink was sweet, but the taste in her more was as bitter as poorly made black coffee. english coffee, as a matter of fact. they had no idea what they were doing. a fact the bulgarian-born witch would never forgive, along with all their passive aggressive 'polite' talk.

she took another sip, the liquor warming her blood. she kept the flask in hand as she casually went back to glicking through records in search of something, in particular, for a rainy day.

Okay. So this WAS Olivia's favourite shop in all of Diagon Alley. It was usually quiet and a nice escape from the noisy streets filled with families, younger students, and potential students coming to Hogwarts. It got very noisy out there and difficult to navigate around the crowds of people. In fact, the crowd navigating reminded her of when the Illvermornians arrived at Hogwarts and a good chunk of them all came to the Gryffindor table. Lots and lots of people in a small space was overwhelming to the Lioness...

So Atticus's Attic First and Secondhand Music Shop was a safe haven away from all the chaos.

Now let's see what new music they have here?

Now let's see what new music they have here?
The not excitement of the beginning of the summer with her runaway brother was still raw in Noelle's mind. She couldn't help but feel responsible for things due to situations. Try as she might though, she needed to get that out of her head and grab some school supplies before her internship started so she would have that done just in case she didn't have time later.

She'd sent Olivia an owl asking if she wanted to join her for today. They'd agreed to meet at the music shop. Noelle headed in with her bag and looked around for the spunky brunette. Spying her near the music records, Noelle went up beside her.

In her best Ace impression, she said. "Fancy meeting you here." Heh.

As she was pursuing the music selection offered here, Olivia kept on glancing over at the door every so often just in case Noelle would walk through the door. She was worried about her friend. The news of a twelve year old running away from home was terrifying. She couldn't believe how Noelle or her family must have been feeling. Then Vi heard Noelle's voice but it sounded much deeper than usual. Huh? Was she trying to impersonate...? Olivia picked up the album that she had been half-reading and turned around....

Oh hey! It was Noelle. And what was with that posture and.... She turned beet red when she realized just who Noelle was impersonating. She broke into a giggle. Of course, she'd impersonate Ace in front of her. Olivia should have expected it. Heh. "Come here often or is just on Saturdays?" she winked trying to place the album back in the box; however, it made a terribly light thud on the ground. Whoops. Not so smooth after all, Holden. She bent down to pick it up, placed it on the table, and then threw her arms around her older friend.

"Hi! How are you feeling? Are you okay?" she asked giving her friend the biggest bear hug EVER. Olivia was here for Noelle. Whatever she needed.

So her Ace impression didn't work.

But Vi got the picture seeing as she turned a shade of pink that looked lovely with her hair. Noelle managed to giggle, especially at the wink and the comment that she made. "I only come here when the time is right." Que eyebrow wiggle with a matching giggle. Okay, so she wasn't the best Ace impressionist.

Then Olivia was hugging her.

Noelle had been holding in a lot. With her parents divorced, the family split, she felt like she had to bring in a strong front to be the strong older sister that her siblings needed. It only resulted in James missing. Not to mention Tim had some issues. Lulu, merlin bless her, was too young to really see what was going on. So when Olivia hugged her, it caught her by surprise and the range of emotions she'd been holding back almost broke through.

Luckily she was able to hold it back.

Noelle hugged her tightly. "I'm okay. For now. How are you? How's summer so far? And thank you so much for those posters." They were currently scattered around DA, neighborhoods, etc. James' smirking, smiling face.

Music.

Merlin knew how much she lived for this, for hearing it, for breathing it…heck, often it was like music was the fuel for her very soul. Music and animals. That likely was all Melbourne needed to survive (it wasn’t). Thumbing her finger along the new albums that had come in recently – or well, were new to a girl that hadn’t been able to come into the shop at all for months upon dreadful months because of school.

Sigh.

The sixteen year old girl placed one of the pairs of headphones over her ears and began to listen…what was this? She hadn’t heard this before.

When the time is right? Woah, woah, woah. What a smooth answer. Noelle Summers had GAME. Well she has always had game. I mean, c'mon! thought Olivia as she smiled proudly at her friend. Merlin. Maybe Noelle could rub some of that game off on Olivia or maybe Mel could help too with that? "Smooth talker," she whistled and then laughed.

As she hugged Noelle, Olivia tried to understand what her friend must be going through. A brother that ran away from home.... Merlin. She couldn't imagine. Though unfortunately Olivia didn't even know about the other heavy weights that her poor friend was carrying on her shoulders. She wouldn't ask her friend directly about James.. It didn't seem appropriate in such a public place even if the music shop was much quieter than the streets of Diagon Alley.

Okay for now was an answer Vi could work with for now. But Noelle had asked about her. Okay... Umm.. Well. She nodded. "I'm good. I've been working at a cafe during the week and volunteering at a museum on weekends. I'm helping out a summer camp there," she smiled. Her brother had introduced her to a lady who had asked Olivia to come help them out with their art camp. It wasn't much work. It was simply making sure these kids were having fun and behaving well. "And just coming here on weekends... Visiting people like your wonderful self and Etta..." Her smile grew slightly more when she said the next comment though, "And seeing Ace too, of course.[/b]"

Noelle had mentioned the posters. So Olivia nodded several times over. "Of course, I'm just glad that the second version of them didn't have a printing error." Merlin knows that she had been MORTIFIED when the first set had come out and everything was just... incorrect. Whoops. "Any luck with people seeing him? My brother's best friend works at the MLE. We could try contacting him too." Ethan would know what to do. Heck. Maybe her brother and Ethan could start looking into cases. They were self-considered consulting detectives after all fashioning a likeness to the great Sherlock Holmes and sharp Dr. Watson.

Noelle was anything but a smooth talker. Just ask Noah. Now HE was a smooth talker. Maybe Noelle had channeled him. She giggled at vi and shook her head. "I missed you!" She said with a small grin before looking around the music shop a moment to compose herself because emotions were threatening to spill over.

"Oohhhh Etta is a sweetie. I like her. And Ace.." Noelle's smile grew when Vi's smile grew wider at the mention of him. 'Soooo? Do you have any news for me?' She asked with a little tilt of her head. She wanted to know all the details. It was a great distraction for her head right now.

"The posters were lovely. Even if they had a mistake on them the first time, his picture was being sent out there. People really only look at the picture anyways." She really wished she could offer up some money as a reward for finding her brother, but being from a divorced family, where her dad was a muggle who owned a farm, that wasn't happening. "Hopefully..... he comes home soon." The MLE was working on tracking him. "I owled out a few people like Frankie and Leon who work in the YATi program. And theres some Diggory's in the auror division." aka, she was tracking down everyone she could to find her little brother.

"Anyways...." She breathed and looked at her. "Tell me this Ace news.'

Anything to distract her head.

"I've missed you too. It's so good to see you," beamed Olivia. It had been way too long since the two had hang out. The last time she had seen Noelle truly had been in the secret passageway when they had a rather unfortunate run in with a Professor's fluffy cat.

Etta was a sweetie. Etta and her had a made a pact to be best friends for a very long time and Olivia was determined to keep that promise. She couldn't imagine not having a friend like Etta or Noelle or Mel. All three of those girls had had a huge impact on her life at Hogwarts. News about Ace...? Well... There was some things to mention but she held out because Noelle was speaking about her brother now.

She blushed. It made her happy that Noelle still loved the posters even with the small mistake. People did mostly look at the photo on the posters. She was glad that she got them fixed though. Phew. Olivia's mind was made up. She was going to talk to Ethan. She made a mental note of that and continued to nod as Noelle listed all the people that she had contacted. Merlin. Tons of people. This was good. Hopefully this would make it easier to find James.

But she knew that her friend needed a distraction so she decided to focus on the question that Noelle had asked. News about Ace. "We're going on dates," she began. They weren't dating exclusively but perhaps we're getting close. Olivia had never done the whole serious dating thing before. It had never lasted this long. She really did care for him which kind of scared her (because she scared A LOT). "We did kiss...." She could feel her face getting warmer when she thought about the kiss and how it all happened. But that was back in April.

"Speaking of cute boys, how's Noah?"

Sigh.

The sixteen year old girl placed one of the pairs of headphones over her ears and began to listen…what was this? She hadn’t heard this before.
The only decent thing about Diagon Alley aside from getting to know new transfers was this shop. At least, in Corbin's opinion. He thumbed across the records, noticing the ones that hadn't been here last summer, before looking up and scanning the faces of the people surrounding him.

With a grin, he dropped the album in his hands and crept up behind a brunette he was sure he recognised. "Guess who?" He was sure she couldn't hear him over the music from the headphones she was wearing, but he knew she'd definitely notice the hands over her eyes.

Julie stuck out like a colorful sore thumb amidst the darker hues of the shop in her lavender t-shirt, powder pink jean skirt and fresh white kicks, but sticking out was never a displeasure for the 14-year old Slytherin. In fact, it was her preferred form of living. Sticking out, showing off, looking cute and garnering attention was what she knew.

it helped a lot when you were meeting up with friends, as she was today with one Cameron Temesis. The music store had been her idea, but one she thought Cam would appreciate considering how curious (and strangely quiet) the place could be. Flipping through some muggle records, Julie found herself scoffing at ridiculous name after ridiculous name.

Grieves?
Garbage?

She couldn't tell if these were inventive or just plain stupid.

okay, probably the sooner.

Vi was perfect.

Noelle blushed and smiled wide at the mention of Noah. "He's the best. I don't know what I'd do without him. He's helping me out a lot lately. Constantly out looking for James.

The venue Julie had chosen was VERY interesting in Cameron's eyes.

While inherently curious he hadn't ventured into this particular shop before today. There was a first to everything, right? And who better to do that with than Julie. Smiling, he entered the shop immediately looking for his friend before he could get too distracted by the records and other items on display.

Fortunately she wasn't very hard to find. "Hey!" Cameron quickly walked over to her and hugged her. Because it has been too long. Yes. Hiiii.

There he was. Cameron Temesis in the flesh. Julie beamed, tucking away the kooks record she'd been looking over to embrace her fellow Slytherin. She didn't hug too tight, lest she squish his skinny frame or bruise him up- not that Cameron seemed weak per se... well, okay, maybe a little fragile. Not weak, just fragile.

"Hey Cam, isn't this place cool?"To be honest, she was a little anxious to hear what he thought of the music shop and if he'd approve. Cam was easy to please-ish, but that didn't stop the worry. She needed him to like Atticus' Attic First & Secondhand Music shop as much as she did, otherwise this would kind of be a flop.

Eyes closed, head bopping to the music…wait. There was pressure on her face – it was…what? The warmth of the hand felt nice. ”hmmmm” Mel just chuckled tried to turn toward the voice. ”oooh whoever you are – you’ve got calloused fingers…” so that just meant they were likely a musician right? Or did something weird…yeah?

”so….do you play an instrument?” she asked as she tried to figure out exactly whose had was covering her eyes.

Tell her everything, hey?

Vi wracked her brains. Where to start? Where to start indeed? She bit her lip. "Hmm... Well.. We went on a Valentine's Date as you know," she began. They would have been going out anyway on a date. It didn't matter what day it was. He was her closest guy friend and meant a lot to her. He just....got her. As for the dates, there were a lot so it was hard to name all of them. But the kissing question surprised her a little. She... errr... Olivia had never kissed someone before except for on the cheek as a form of greeting. "He's my first kiss. And yes, a very good kisser," she whispered softly and blushing. She was looking forward to spending much more time with him.

She smiled, hearing that Noah was helping Noelle greatly with everything. He sounded like a great guy and a really fantastic friend for Noelle. "He sounds wonderful," she said with a nod. "And it sounds like he really cares. What does he have on? He is also in the internship with you?"

Excuse you, he was not weak. He was tall(er) maybe. AND he was still staying fit by exercising regularly. He had to hold a beaters bat after all. That took STRENGTH.

When she pulled back, Cameron took a moment to grin at Julie before letting his eyes wander around the shop again. "It's different." He concluded but it was clear from his tone that he thought it was a good kind of different. "Do you come here a lot?" Taking a small step back he picked up a record at random and turned it over.

Interesting.

Interesting.

Cameron was not what Julie thought of when the terms 'muscles' or 'strength' came to mind. Okay, maybe he wasn't exactly weak and he certainly seemed taller now, but she still saw the boy as a bit of a weakling. She couldn't help it. It was just the impression that had stuck.

For better or worst.

"Definitely different." Julie agreed, glancing around the shop to proper assess his assessment. "I wouldn't say a lot, but enough to be comfy here, y'know?" Julie half turned, stepping to the rack of records and idly fingering the first few just for the feeling of it. "It's quiet, and you find some really wild stuff- and the staff are pretty nice and they know a lot about music. Muggle and wizard. Like a different kind of history." Julie was talking like she'd reached a very serious conclusion.

Her hands were free and it was a very strange feeling. So strange Sophie caught herself holding onto her sholder bag once in a while just because. Whenever she did realise she was doing it, the brunette would let go and try to make the most of the fact she had no children to look after today.

Truth be told, she should be used to that by now, since it wasn't rarely that her own parents looked after her children. Still, there was no getting used to have FREE HANDS, especially since her youngest was only 4 months old.

'Only 4 months old' felt more like 'ALREADY 4 months old', though. Sweet Merlin, where was time going???

Anyway, there she was, with her hands FREE. Might as well explore a shop she had never been to as well, right? Right! Off she was to the music shop to wait for her best friend.

How nice! Sophie felt like she would've liked this place when she was a teenager. Not that she felt that much older than a teenager, but maybe she was. MERLIN, she was!

... Oh well. That wouldn't stop her from smiling at those already in the shop and going straight to where she could see several albums displayed. Not looking for anything in particular, she simply flicked through them, mouthing some of the strangest band names she saw.
