  • THE LOST CHORD

    THE LOST CHORD

    If anything, this mix serves as irrefutable proof that I smoke way too much weed. I did this years ago, armed with my trusty Monotron mini-synthesizer, some audio clips from a BBC progressive rock documentary, unquantifiable amounts of kush and a handful of prog records that I had accumulated over the years and needed a purpose.…

  • ABSTRAKT CRATERY: Lord Finesse

    ABSTRAKT CRATERY: Lord Finesse

    When your friend sends you an exclusive mix named after your podcast, you’re thrilled. When your friend is Lord Finesse and he calls the mix “Abstrakt Cratery”, you’re ecstatic.

  • Sims Joints: Son of S.O.U.L. tribute

    Sims Joints: Son of S.O.U.L. tribute

    We lost our dear friend Masimba “Son of S.O.U.L.” Kadzirange recently. Needless to say, it’s been pretty rough around Cratery headquarters. We all had our own individual relationships with Masimba. And they could all be described as equal parts meaningful and funny. “Sims” was a one of a kind dude. An old school philosopher that…

  • FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS

    FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS

    Candlelight. Fireplaces. Stuff made of Satin. I can’t say Catalist or myself are well-versed in any of the above. But we do share a mutual appreciation for soul records. Specifically, soul records targeted to fans of candlelight, fireplaces and stuff made of satin. It’s not clear how two fairly unromantic dudes could develop such a…

  • COVERED IN MAGMA

    COVERED IN MAGMA

    The good folks at MAGMA reached out to us about collaborating on a mix for their up coming Fall/Winter pop-up shop this weekend. Naturally, we had no choice but to submit to the laws of mutual dopeness and agree. Since MAGMA plans on previewing some new wears, we thought we’d hit you with a little preview…

  • LAWN CHAIR MUSIC VOL. 2

    LAWN CHAIR MUSIC VOL. 2

    So nice we had to do it twice. Lawn Chair Music Vol. 2 is a another hour of summer inspired tunes to bump while spitting out watermelon seeds, brainfreezing off slurpees, falling off surfboards, barfing out of a canoe, smoking a fattie on the dock with a dimepiece or any other of your favourite summer…

  • LAWN CHAIR MUSIC VOL. 1

    LAWN CHAIR MUSIC VOL. 1

    Something intangible about a song makes it a summer joint. It just feels like summer. Like a pair of trusty flip flops, camo shorts and Ray-Bans, some music was just tailored for warmer weather. From Duke Pearson’s Brazilian inspired jazz sounds to Reign Ghost’s folk psych and RAMP’s lesser known version of a Roy Ayers…
