Welcome To Drake Records!

A cozy and well-sorted recordstore in Cologne.

Drake Records started in 2008 - so it's 14 years already.
14 years of constant digging and music recording and releasing, endless conversations about sounds and countless listening sessions, radioshows and DJ sets.

Recently we've been moving - our street store can now be found at Ritterstr. 48 (near Saturn/Hansaring).

To get a rough idea about us; here's a bunch of short videos (that were mostly made over the first few years but still reflect the general vibe).

Can you feel it?

Many have (re-)discovered the value of touching a and looking at an actual record (instead of a small icon) as well as being able to listen to the vinyl (instead of a short soundfile).

It's way cooler.

Some of us have always been sticking to vinyl records anyway even through rough times when everybody thought  CD's were the shit (and now they're not worth a dime and it turns out they're really shit, haha).
The diggers that went the extra mile will always have a place at Drake Records (and that's one with a seat, recordplayer, headphones and a cup of tea).
