House Shoes
For the first episode of Season 2 we welcome House Shoes. Originally from Detroit, now an adopted Angeleno, Shoes is a DJ, producer, and label head who started working at local record stores in the Detroit area where he befriended a young Jay Dee. Soon after he became host of the hip-hop room at St. Andrew's Hall in the 1990s, setting himself on a path to become an ambassador for his city to the world for the next decade. In the early 2010s, he moved away from beat making to set up Street Corner Music (named after the record shop where his career began), through which he supports new and established talent and acts as an ambassador for dope shit, regardless of origin. Through it all he has remained a DJ's DJ, with deep crates and a deep understanding of the music, and an opinionated commentator of a culture he loves deeply.
This episode was edited and produced by Laurent Fintoni. Intro and outro music by Duke Westlake. Artwork by Kutmah. Design assistance by Paper Resistance and Brandy Flower.
