BBC Radio – Beat Mining with a Vinyl Hoover

Steinski put us on to this nice podcast on beat digging with an all star cast.

Other interviewees included Aaron Fuchs of Tuff City Records, Mark 45 King, Coldcut – who do a director’s commentary on their remix of Eric B. and Rakim – Mr. Scruff, Keb Darge, and Johan Kugelberg. Among others.

This is a great insight into diggin’ from some of the best people out there. Highly Recommended

December 08 bit and pieces, Christ, Mayer drops an anthem on us with his bangin’ heart shaped 10 inch. Now & Again put out an unreal release from Mr. Chop, spaced out beats from a little while back with Ras G on his Poobah label. 12 inch release par excellence with a wicked intstrumental and acapella on the QTip Gettin Up hit. Nice Fela edit from Beatsy Collins, a 7inch booty. Dj Day returns and brings a whole lot of soul with him reworking Marvin Gaye superbly..excellent. Swedish output from Freddie & Linn sees them covering our very own U2 towards the end of the flipside and back to the future with the Kindred release from Dorian Concept, The Sherrifs of Nottingham The PBrothers come correct as per usual with another Money Boss Players collab and to wrap it off the P&P box set, essential.
