Liquid SunShine Podcast - Inebriated Interviews with Vancouver's hip hop underground

On this particular past production we linked up with Cityreal. As usual we get the low down on how he got into music and rap and he talked about what's next. There may even be a musical performance of some kind, actually, I doubt it. Of course, I'm leaving out a bunch of stuff, otherwise there'd be no point in listening. Archive and Sauce are, as always, your inebriated guides and C-LO provides the soundtrack we chat to. LSP in your area.

This episode marks the return of the one and only Junk. After a year of constant touring and recording, we sit down with the NWD emcee to talk tour stories, his new album "Stupid and Ugly" and what the future holds. We also put Junk in the our extreme freestyle challenge, the off-the-top octagon that is the 8 nipples of pig. The results are incredible. Sauce and Archive get to sipping and promoting the upcoming LSP charity basketball battle for the ages, while DJ C-Lo holds it down like no other. Liquid Sunshine, baby.

After a hibernating hiatus we roll back on the scene, crispy and clean, with the one and only Young Nige. We chit chat about Nige's musical past and entry into hip hop and the formation of his group, Friends With The Help, and we take some time to discuss the extensive catalogue of FWTH music videos. Finally Nige wraps it up (pun intended) with a devastating freestyle. Archie and Sauce guide the swerving journey and C-LO supplies the backbone with another continuous mix. Liquid Sunshine 2017 y'all!

We chat about some of the best music that came out of Vancouver this year and list some of our favourite albums from 2016 as a whole. The boys also amp up the cheer, as Archie complains about the cities recent musical output and Sauce mourns the death of the world. Thank god, or any mythical beast really, for DJ Goddamn C-LO, who holds this shit down in his typical fashion, keeping us bumping and mixing both a set of our fav Vancity rap tracks and general hip hop heat. Special guest Rozmo pops in to rock Hootenanny live with the house-band and kick off the last LSP freestyle of the year. It's Liquid Sunshine y'all, catch us in the new year and HAPPY HOLIDAZE!

We comb through his history on the mic and how he journeyed from the Okanagan to Vancouver to pursue a dream, form the group Earthtones and eventually create the successful DJ Mix series, Hip Hop Corner. Sauce and Archive try to keep the train on the rails as much as possible, as they swerve through the topics, and the unflappable DJ C-LO provides the soundtrack with his typically unwavering and extended mix. Another one in the books. Go on and catch a sip of the Liquid.

The high-priests of home town hippity hop return with special guest, Kelvin, from the KIDS. He lays out his history: coming up as a young'n and discovering hip hop in White Horse, moving to Vancouver to go to audio school and forming one of the most active groups in the city. We also learn which one of the KIDS is his uncle, as well as who some of his favourite producers are. All of this and more await you, listener, with the bumbling guidance of your favourite old-men, Saucey and Archive, and the miraculous mixing of grandpa C-LO. It's this, it's that, it's Liquid Sunshine y'all!

We chop it up about: his journey as an emcee and the creation of Def Poets Society, the trials and tribs of his brief time in the porn industry and the release (pause) of his latest project, "The Sex Tape". Archive and Sauce remain lit like a wick while C-LO "can't stop, won't stops" through another seamless and continuous mix. This one is a motherfucking doozy. Only on Liquid Sunshine y'all!!

He takes us on a trip through the world travelling history of the Ill-Legitimate Crew, as well as his personal history in hip-hop, while also regaling us with stories from his many tour dates. Finally, he clues his hapless hosts into the new-new from Ill-Legit before closing out with the ill rhymes. The hosts are feeling the effects and fighting through the haze, while DJ C-LO impeccably and continuously supplies the soundtrack. It's what we do. Liquid Sunshine y'all!!

We learn about some of his history leading up to his arrival in Canada and his early rapping years in the Kootenays, and delve into his battle history, the formation of NWD and his new solo record, I.A.N, being released soon on Stealth Bomb Records. Sauce and Archive are your guides on this hip hop narrative and, as always, DJ C-LO supplies the soundtrack with his continuous, effortless mixing. Liquid Sunshine y'all!!

Sauce and Mr. Archive ramble about the passing of Phife Dog, the closing of the Railway Club in Vancity and the recent accusations against the legendary Afrika Bambataa. Of course DJ C-LO holds it down with a continuous mix, spinning some of the hypest jams in the land. Liquid Sunshine for your ear-throats y'all!
