Stop in, look around, have a drink and crank some tunes. I'll be posting some songs ripped from records, some out of print and hard to find stuff, some songs by artists you should be listening to, and a few mixes here and there.

Check The Cool Wax 2014 Mix Is Coming! 2013 Mix Is Still Available

Procrastination is alive and well at Check The Cool Wax! But never fear, the 2014 Christmas mix is on it's way. I'm listening to it over and over. Working out the kinks, switching a few sound clips around, normalizing the volume levels. Trying to get all of you another quality mix. This one will be similar to 2013 Christmas and 2014 Halloween. About an hour long and chock full of sound bytes!

Until then, the 2013 Check The Cool Wax Christmas Mix is still available here: DOWNLOAD or just press play and give it a listen below.

Merry Trekkin' Christmas!

Yes Boy Wonder, There Is A Santa Claus!

I have a sound byte in my 2013 Christmas Mix that I guess I forgot to share. It's a clip from Batman (1966) where the Dynamic Duo are climbing a building and Santa pops out the window. The show is famous for cameos by the likes of Jerry Lewis, Sammy Davis Jr. and even Lurch! Here is Andy Devine as Santa Clause meeting Adam West and Burt Ward during a "Batclimb." You should be able to follow the link back to soundcloud if you would like to download it and add it to your Christmas merriment

More songs added to The BEST Halloween Mix Ever by Brainwerk on Spotify

Hey everyone! How's it going eh? Check The Cool Wax shuts down pretty tight between the holidays. I will be posting some fun stuff for Halloween though including a fun 60 minute Halloween mix like I did last Christmas with sound clips and all kinds of stuff added. For now you can listen to some Halloween music on Spotify. I think it plays pretty good in order or on shuffle. Hope your Halloween season is going GREAT!
