old adventures in hi-fi
Quite a few years ago I edited the music section of the magazine at the now rebranded London Metropolitain University. Its a typical ‘Dan’ story how I became appointed - for another time maybe. Needless to say it fully opened the already ajar door of blaggadon (my record/cd collection was doubling on a almost weekly basis) and meant I had some amazing oportunities to meet and interview some really creative people like Blackalicious/Quannum, Talvin Singh, The Herbalizer, Skunk Anansie, Tjinder Singh (of Cornershop) and loads of others. It also laid a nice foundation for my next project - setting up a radio station to broadcast to the whole of east london and beyond for 4 weeks in the summer of 2000.
Anyway - enough rambling. I decided I wanted to put the interviews and reviews I did for the magazine on the blog in all their naive glory for anyone who may be interested. The next few posts will include as many as I can dig up or scan from old issues of G-echo. I guess I will add a brief intro paragraph to give you some background on the interviews. Enjoy.
