The Dan Digs Show 109: New Karriem Riggins, DJ Jazzy Jeff & James Poyser, Photay, Yellow Days, Dan Kye aka Jordan Rakei – Special Guest: Robot Koch

Show number 109!

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 LA-via-Berlin composer and producer Robot Koch to the #DanDigsShow.

Robert and I talked about organic drums, Berlin, his film soundtrack composer heroes, 90s drum ‘n’ bass, German Christmas traditions, and using field recordings of ice cracking to make a beat, all before playing an amazing set that ended with a world premiere of a new Robot Koch track.

Plus the show saw brand new music from Karriem Riggins, DJ Jazzy Jeff & James Poyser, Photay, Yellow Days, and Dan Kye aka Jordan Rakei.
