Show Notes
CRATERY 46: The OST Sequel (Session B)
Intermission’s over. You’ve rolled an appropriate amount of chronic. Secured an appropriate amount of snackage. And drained an appropriate amount of pee-pee from your pee-pee. Time for part two. Kaewonder kicks off session B of our OST spectacular with a piece of from the elusive Shogun Assassin soundtrack. DJ Serious wastes no time in following suit with a Les Baxter slow burner off The Dunwich Horror. I veer off into weirdo territory with a selection from 1970’s His Wife’s Habit, a movie about a restless housewife with a penchant for seducing men who aren’t her husband. But it’s not all anime, sleaze and b-movies. Blaxploitation classics like Foxy Brown and The Mack make appearances, as do Hollywood familiarities like Taxi Driver and Dirty Harry. DJ Serious even manages to uncover a little something on the soundtrack to 1976 Olympic games from Montreal. Between lush arrangements, unexpected breakbeats and sheer weirdness, the soundtrack has been, and will continue to be fertile ground for the crate head.

More from CRATERY
I first met Mr. Attic at York University’s 105.5 FM in ’95. It was my first year attending York and my favourite pastime had quickly become loitering around the campus/community radio station before, between and after classes. One of my favourite shows was called “Soul by the Pound” – a program dedicated to playing the soul, jazz, funk and rock songs that inspired the hip-hop songs of the era. Show creator Jeremy “Beatdawg” Weisfeld would blow my mind every week with source material for my favourite Pete Rock, Tribe and Large Professor songs with a level of insider knowledge I hadn’t encountered up until that point. It wasn’t long before pestering Jeremy on the phone every 5 mins for song titles turned into hanging out at the station and pestering him in person.
David Axelrod would have probably scoffed at this tribute.
One of the simple pleasures of being a rap fan is the passionate level of debate and analysis you can engage in with a fellow nerd at any given moment around any given album – old or new.
It’s funny to think I wouldn’t be typing these words right now if Kaewonder hadn’t asked me the question “Do you follow that dude @mastersihn on Instagram”?
