Vinyl City is a city and the setting of No Straight Roads. It's governed and controlled by NSR.

Overview

Vinyl City is a big, high-tech city powered by music and is known as the music capital of the world. It used to have an energy problem but has since become well-powered thanks to the emergence of the record label and EDM empire NSR and their power source known as the Qwasa, a machine that converts music into power and distributes it through the whole city. Since then, music has been the main power source, and thus a wide-spread commodity. However, throughout the game, the city primarily favored EDM music over other genres, enforced by NSR with an iron fist and great prejudice.

Vinyl City is split into districts. Many, if not all, are occupied and controlled by NSR's artists. A NSR-controlled district features their music, aesthetics, advertisements, and their stage where they perform their concerts. NSR Tower is situated in the heart of the city. As expected, there is a vast sewer network underneath the streets, and this is where Bunk Bed Junction lives and serves as their base of operations.

Vinyl City also has a special way to access different districts, also powered by music. Specifically, the dock requires a Platinum Disc to be inserted into the record player-like podium and be played music in order to access the district associated with that Disc (ie. DJ Subatomic Supernova's Platinum Disc allows complete access to the Cast Tech District). Once all requisites are met, the city will shift entirely and give access to the district by connecting them via docks.
