    that would be soundgarden, and they have a decent selection of downtempo, hip hop and micro house.

    there's a new place in adams morgan with a very eclectic selection, lots of non edm stuff in there- it's called crooked beats. its on 18th street right near maggie moo's in a townhouse basement. definitely worth checking out.
