In this episode we talk to Philip Christie of The Bonk about their song Future 87. First released in May 2022 and featured on their excellent 2023 LP 'Greater Than Or Equal To The Bonk', we'll hear about how the song evolved from a jam committed to a 4-Track Tape in 2017, as well as looking at the limitations and creative decisions that shaped the recording.
