Arcee + Kaewonder + Dj Serious = CRATERY 30
The beauty of collecting records for as long as we have is getting bored. Believe it or not, boredom is the friend of the record collector. We at Cratery started out collecting soul, funk and jazz – the cornerstones of hip-hop production. But after 5-6 years of focusing on these genres, we got bored. Why?…

Albino Zebrah Celebratory Hip Hop Hoe-Down – 13 YRS in This!
B-Boys and dancers of all forms take precedent when it comes to my dj sets. The funk just oozes from my pours. With that said it should not come as a surprise that I see a lot of Toronto’s best dancers at my jams. Some of these kids (well i guess they aren’t kids anymore)…
Ekambi Brillant – Nayo Nayo
This ain’t worth more than a dollar… just kidding. I spent a lot of my formative years digging in MTL. Back when it seemed like on every random street, you would find a record store that would pop up and then disappear within months, me and the crew would easily come up on Lee Gagnons,…
Lyn Christopher – Lyn Christopher
Excellent Psych-ish/Soul tune on this obscure rock album. Its kinda hard to find and sort of sought after because some of the dudes from Kiss sang backup vocals on it. Back in the day, these were pretty easy to come across, as for the most part, it looks like a pop vocal record. I found…
Melba Moore – Standing Right Here
YES!
The Rimshots- Dance Girl b/w Who got The Monster
One helluva little record. Both sides bang.
The Charmels – As Long As I’ve Got You
The Charmels. I’ve been told that this is one of the Volt Labels rarest 45s, not sure how true this is, since it keeps popping up on eBay… Having said that it does go for some hefty loot. Never the less, I can’t help but to feel proud flossing this beat to shit 99cent find.…
Sylvia – Sylvia
The art work on this LP makes Sylvia seem so messed up. Some good soul tunes though. Bonus:
The Emotions – I Like It
This Staxx/Volt vocal trio are responsible for some classic hip hop material courtesy of thier song “Blind Alley” and are probably best known for the boogie/ disco hits “Best of My Love” and “Boogie Wonderland”. But long before the disco hits, these Chicago born females had some really great soul tunes. This particular song is…

Freddie James – Freddie James
This shit is tight. Found it on a recent digging excursion with my homie Arcee… Freddie James Self Titled LP one solid tune with that typical generic boogie banger sound. Never seen this one before but I always used to see some of his other joints in MTL all the time. Makes sense because this…
The Notations – Super People
Having eluded me for a years now, I finally caved in and copped one of these recently. I just got it in the mail today. I would consider this a fairly well known funk/soul record that has made it to a few compilations and re-issues not to mention having been sampled by early nineties Hip-Hop…
Miles Jones – Rhyme Like This (feat. Percee P)
This is a joint I produced on Miles Jone’s Runaway Jones album It featuring the likes of the legendary random rapper Percee P. It’s called “Rhyme Like This”. I kinda treated the song as some what of an ironic throw back to the type of Hip Hop i listened to when i was growing up.…

First Touch – Pleasure For Your Treasure
I’ve been keeping this song under my hat for the last little while, but i think these dudes deserve some shine. It’s a current staple in my dj sets and the whole album is nothing short of “tight”. If you like Dam Funk, and 80’s synth boogie, then First Touch will be right up your…
New Weekly Event – 24 Carat @ Andy Poolhall every Tuesday
The title of this post pretty much says it all… Long time buddy, loud mouth, all around good guy and, BBoy dancefloor killer Heistro (Ready2Rock/DDK) has decided to get in the promotion game. In creating this night dedicated to dancers and their audience, Heist has enlisted Kae Wonder and myself to throw down the funk…
