The Dan Digs Show 056: New Missy Elliott, Erykah Badu, FaltyDL, Astronomyy, Disclosure – Special Guest: Newbody (Live Set)
Show number 56!
As always, the latest and greatest in leftfield beats and electronic soul, plus interviews with my favorite artists for your listening pleasure every Sunday night on Dash 1 at DashRadio.com.
We never (or almost never!) play the same song twice on this show, so consider it your weekly update of all things new and good in soulful and beat-driven music!
This week we welcomed Jonathan and Roberto of Newbody to the studio!
We talked about the genius of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, how the world needs more New Jack Swing, the musical landscape of both Detroit and LA, and how the duo got into one of Britain’s finest exports: UK Garage!
Jonathan and Roberto then laid down a fantastic live set for us, including a former Track of the Day at DanDigs.com – the superb “Telephone”!
