The Dan Digs Show 093: New Mac Miller & Anderson Paak, Nas & Erykah Badu, Massive Attack & Ghostpoet, Toro Y Moi, Clipping – Special Guest: Honne

Show number 93!

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 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 UK electronic soul duo Honne to the #DanDigsShow.

Andy, James, and I talked about Japanese culture, starting Honne while still at university, seeing Michael Jackson at Wembley, funky drum fills, tour bus essentials, grime, words in other languages that are difficult to express in English, making late-night electronic soul music, and their fantastic new album, Warm on a Cold Night out now via their own label, Tatemae Recordings.

Plus the show saw brand new music from Mac Miller & Anderson Paak, Nas & Erykah Badu, Massive Attack & Ghostpoet, Toro Y Moi, and Clipping.
