45 Live presents Club Collectors - R&G Collective - 21 Feb
This Friday 21st February on dublab.com @ 8pm US PST, we’re excited to continue in a mini-series of broadcast sessions here at the 45 Live Radio Show Los Angeles. Each will focus on the sounds and plays all sourced on original vinyl, that are currently coming out of underground clubland across the UK. Introducing: CLUB COLLECTORS, with my guests RHYTHM & GROOVE COLLECTIVE This club night is the brain child of two diehard collectors that scavenge deep for underplayed, unknown, untested and undoubtedly undiluted heavy duty soulful sounds to bring to the club. As a duo, BRIAN MAGUIRE & WARREN COCKER form the backbone of this crucial club that pushes the musical envelope just that bit further. So, absolutely that makes them the perfect guests to launch our Club Collectors Series. Expect audio curveballs a’plenty, served up with a high octane sensibility, which makes any Rhythm & Groove Collective outting an essential session for those craving new and exciting sounds. Folks travel the length and breadth of the UK to their events, and for good reason… Hosted by Greg Belson, CLUB COLLECTORS will set the tone and shine a light on DJ’s that put in the legwork to find the next undiscovered discovery. It’s the future now sound of then…and when you hear the show, that’ll make perfect sense. This is 45 Live!
