Diggin' w/ Dune ((Trip 1)) / The Dig


Diggin' w/ Dune ((Trip 1))

November 22, 2014 marked the first of hopefully many diggin' trips with the homie/beatsmith Dune.  In the past, a majority of the time I went digging solo or picked up records when I was able to make a quick stop at a local Goodwill, music shop, estate sale, or word of mouth with people that wanted to give up their vinyl.

Diggin' w/ Dune is the first dig collab... the beginning.  We documented the trip through pictures and audio recordings at the Olde Post.  Working in the conversation with with what we decided to buy, I plan on piecing together an audio mixtape collage of Trip 1.  At the gallery link below you'll find shots of records we stopped to talk or joke about... While digging is of course a music thing, its just as much about the visual and what the covers communicate to us... whether it's a throwback to a show we use to watch or something nostalgic that reminds us of something else.  The search took time and was a cool experience collaborating with B.Dune.  Will post info about the mix once its available.  May take a while.

Medley: SOUL MESSAGE - Diggin' w/ Dune November 22, 2014


Medley: SOUL MESSAGE

Going for a dig in the afternoon with my OGSV b.rother Dune.  To listen, I'm bringing along a favorite mixtape I put together about six years ago dedicated to the life of Isaac Lee Hayes, Jr.  It's part of the repshowdigital (RSD) file, subtitled Tape Deck Bound....the tape is split in two sides A & B and its tied together mostly by Hayes music and voice (interviews). The mixtape itself is titled Medley: Soul Message.  A long time fan of Hayes, I decided to arrange the music after finding out Hayes had passed away.

Included below... the covers with track list for both sides.
