Drake Records nimmt am Record Store Day teil.

Was konkret u.a. bedeutet, daß es einige wenige exklusive RSD-Releases bei uns geben wird (die erstens zum größten Teil nur in den USA zu bekommen sind und zweitens wirklich nur exklusiv an diesem Tag im Laden erhältlich sind!).

Fr, 01.04.2011- 23.00 to 00.00

DJ Phoney on the air - at Soulsender

A DJ-mix by DJ Phoney (who runs this store) will be aired on http://www.soulsender.de/

The "tracksBitsAndPieces"-mix consequently consists of some of his own productions from 2005 - 2010.

So tune in and drop out!

Sa, 26.03.2011- 15.30 to 19.30

Warum Frank at the turntables at Drake Records

It's gonna be wicked and weird. Expect sounds from all areas, uncommon as well as danceable, electronic to unexplainable - sure not boring.

Listen and dig through our stock!

Extrem Spätkaufing at Drake Records until 00.00

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.

Be part of the movement

and visit a recordstore!

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).
