Bijan on the pod this week. If synth wave, post punk, and dark disco all had a baby its name would be Bijan. We get into his roots of making bass music, his transition into house music, and how his sound has evolved into the dark textures we know from Bijan today.

Enjoy my friends

Gianni Blanco on the pod this week. Had some audio issues for the first half. Apologies on that one. This was my first time actually sitting down and chatting with Gianni so it was fun getting to know him as a person as well as a dj. Gianni has made huge progress in a short amount of time and we get into his origin story and how he moved from open format to his 90s underground sound.

Welcome TempoTapz to the show this week. Tapz is known for his painting/ traditional artistry but has dabbled in pretty much every artistic medium you can think of. We talk about our experience of throwing parties and how/why the party scene is evolving so quickly these days.

This week's episode we sat down with my good friend and Long Beach native, Ian Zunich. Ian is a regular selector at Foot Work records, and we discussed his journey of moving from hip-hop to spinning vinyl and his experience breaking into Los Angeles house scene. Enjoy!
