This week on What Goes Around we talk to the big cat himself DJ Jaguar Skills. A legend of the UK Hip-Hop scene DJ Jaguar Skills tells his musical story from the bedroom to the biggest festivals, radio shows and record labels. A man of incredible ingenuity and insight Jaguar Skills photocopied his way into journalism, pivoted into DJing by way of a minidisc player and finally became a fully fledged recording artist & label boss on his own terms. Best known for his incredible mixes for the likes of Trevor Nelson, Mista Jam, Colin Murry and his unique remixes for Nervous Records, Lupe Fiasco and many more. You could never say that he took the well worn path and that makes his story unmissable.  We also have a special feature on the Manchester Hip-Hop archive, a brilliant project aiming to document the crucial role Manchester played in the adoption of Hip-Hop in the UK. We talk to the curators about the scene, the key players and how the fashion, graffiti, music and dancing came together to lift up the youth of the Northern Quarter and kick start an age of creativity and optimism.Before all that though Eamon and Deb discuss three incredible documentaries that lay bare the creative process and the pressures of success; The Beatles 8 hour epic 'Get Back', Leonard Cohen's long lost 'Bird on a wire' and the tragic but beautiful story of the Silver Jews.It's a great show so dig in and tell a friend.
