A New Journey
Putting our Love of Music to Good Use!
We are Kyle, Laura and Matthew Radomsky. We have been immersed in music our for our whole lives, each with a different experience and perspective. Several years ago we began collecting vinyl, and when we moved to Chilliwack in 2020, we quickly found Chilliwax Records. It became a Saturday ritual to go to the store, hang out, browse and add to our collection every week after having coffee. When Paula whispered to us that she and Joe were planning to retire and they were selling the store, suddenly a new possibility and direction opened up for us.
Kyle is a professional musician and is well known in the music community and has been playing internationally since the 90s. His musical knowledge and retail experience make him a natural in the store, and he loves many musical genres.
Laura has also worked in music retail for many years, and is really passionate about her musical memories. If you come in the store and hear some lesser-known New Wave spinning, you know she is responsible.
Matthew just graduated from CSS and is a great fit to work at Chilliwax. He was born musical, and his music taste is totally eclectic and surprising - it's a chance for him play ALL the music!

We love Special Orders! It is impossible for us to stock everything, but we do invite you Special Order something you would like us to bring in. No deposit required, but we ask that you pick your title up as quickly as possible when notified of its' arrival. If you are unable to pick up within a few days, we can arrange for prepayment by eTrans or credit card.
Also, we are at the mercy of our suppliers, so when we say it may take months for the item to arrive, we appreciate your patience as we all wait. Please consider that when we call to tell you your item is in and you 'already got it as a gift' or 'bought it somewhere else', it may be difficult for us to now sell your Special Order.
That being said, we learn from you! Some Special Orders become hot selling items as we often bring a copy in for ourselves when we see what we've been missing! Thank you for supporting our small business!
