The 2nd part of our double Cratery with Aki of Cosmos Records in Toronto. After killing us with the “Astro-Disc” joint on part 1, Aki wastes no time getting into it with an Azimuth 45 none of us have ever heard of. Kae and I chime in with selections from Iran’s Mehrpouya and Germany’s Michael Naura. And Dj Serious bookends this one with Webster Lewis “Do you believe”, a cut from his impossibly rare “Club 7” LP, which has been known to go for upwards of $700. I don’t want to calculate what it would cost for you to purchase the records featured on this month’s 2nd Cratery, but can anybody say 2nd mortgage? TRACKLIST: 1. Azimuth – Tempos Atras 2. Mehrpouya – Soul Raga 3. Michael Naura – Black Pigeon 4. Chuck Jackson – I like everything about you 5. Myrna Hague – What color is love? 6. Hammer – Tuane 7. Illustration – Upon the Earth 8. Reggie Garner – Hot Line 9. Black East – I’m gonna love you just a little more, baby 10. Ripple – Facts of Life 11. Stone Alliance – Sweetie Pie 12.

CRATERY 38b : Aki Abe

Cosmos Records has become a vinyl institution in Toronto. Since it’s inception in the late 90’s, it’s supplied record fiends here and abroad with an incredible selection of Soul, Funk, Jazz, Latin and Brazilian rarities like no store since. At the root of Cosmos is its mild-mannered owner, Aki Abe. Aki quickly established himself as a force in the vinyl business by offering a premium selection of records to his walk-in customers. Cosmos was the opposite of Toronto mainstays like Vinyl Museum – a large, poorly organized store full of $2 records. Cosmos was a small boutique full of hand picked, hard-to-find funk, catering to specific collectors. This was a huge shift in the way people bought wax in the city. Most stores wouldn’t showcase their $250 grails – they were usually reserved for private collectors or eBay. But Cosmos would proudly display their rare acquisitions on the wall. And collectors ate it up. For the first of this 2-part Cratery, we’re geeked to have Aki of Cosmos share some super rare bangers from his personal ‘wall’ at home. If you recognize any titles, they’re probably the records Aki didn’t play. Cratery 38A. Enjoy. TRACKLIST: 1. The Heavenly Band – He rose up from the ground 2. The Caprells – Close your eyes 3. Oneness of Juju – Follow Me 4. Pollution – Vegetable Soup 5. Aloisiu – Tema, R 6. The Jon Bartel Thing – Freak Show 7. Zulema – Standing in the back row of your heart 8. Tyrone and Carr – Take me with you 9. Astro-Disc – Libra 10. Peter Delis – Mambo de Machaguay 11. The Gang Band – TSOB 12. Triangle – Cameron’s Complaint Subscribe on iTunes Download It Here!
