Episode Info

  • Episode184
This week our attention turns to record stores, record collecting, and the art of the come-up. Dave, Demone & Nate share a few digging stories, talk about the state of the record collecting game, and discuss the limits of sample snitching in hip-hop media. After that we have a lovely chat with consummate b-boy, gifted producer and recording artist DJ Format. We have been fans of Format's records and mixes for many years, so we are pleased to welcome him to the show to talk about his career, in particular his excellent recent release, the somewhat subdued and psych-influenced Devil's Workshop. DBRP was scooped out of the podcast dollar bin by the keen collectors at Stony Island Audio.
