Here to deliver some files

 

I was asked for some direct download links to the three mix files below. Here they are. I hope you enjoy them. Please leave a message if you did. I'd love to hear it.

Volume 1 (20130

Volume 2 (2014)

Volume 3 (2020)

Hey! Is anyone out there???

I don't know if anyone ever stumbles by here anymore. Maybe a few people find through google looking for old records. Anyhoo. I'm still kicking. It's been awhile but here is my latest Christmas mix. I hope you like it. Again, it's filled with catchy songs and of course lots of soundbites. I also have a few Halloween mixes I'll post back here in October. I'm now hosting mixes over at Mixcloud. Look for Brainwerk.

Here are my previous two. Most of my old links in here are now broken so here they are below.

Merry Munsters Christmas!

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

Brainwerk Halloween Mix 2014

Ran out of time to really iron this one out. Just got too busy. I will have a polished version for next Halloween I promise. But for now enjoy this one, warts and all. Happy Halloween everyone!

Cleaning a Record with Wood Glue?!?

If nothing else, it looks really fun to peel the glue off. I'm going to try this.

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!

Brainwerk's Christmas Mix 2013 by Brainwerk on Mixcloud

Check The Cool Wax Christmas Mix 2013

Merry Christmas everyone! How is your Christmas season going? Great I hope. I feel like I really have the spirit this year. Some years Christmas comes and goes so fast that you really don't get to fully submerge yourself into this wonderful time of year.

Here is my meager gift to you. It's not much. 60 minutes (give or take a few seconds) of peppy Christmas music that I hope will brighten up your spirits if only for a short time. Think of it as an hour of Check The Cool Wax radio. It has had my kids and I dancing around the living room for a few weeks now. I tried to keep this as upbeat as possible. The tempo drops a little in the middle but picks right back up at the end. It will also be good practice for your holiday party because you can practice all your dance moves - polka, pogo, western swing, robot or even just the cool head bob...

I'm not sure how long this will be up. Soundcloud could take this down at anytime. If anyone is interested, I can make this a mix on Spotify too. I really had fun making this. Please send me a note or leave a message if you enjoyed it. I would love to know if anyone is still visiting the site.

Please support these great artists. My only intent here is to spread a little good cheer and introduce other music lovers to some songs they may have forgotten or never heard before. Well, except for Elvis I guess… But I couldn't make a Christmas mix without the King of Rock n Roll right?? It's just impossible to hear good music on the radio or in stores anymore.
