Next Week? ATL MC Stanza, Hip Hop Documentarian/Photographer Shannon McCollum and Producer Mudfish.
I’ve got some great interviews with Activist and MC Tim’m West (who no longer lives in Atlanta- the interview was done in July) Random Rabbit, Soupy Jones and many more ATL artists coming up in the next few weeks as well as Part II of “Our House“, a look into Atlanta’s House music scene. Thought I forgot about that? No way! It’s been the most popular episode! I plan for it to be Episode #20, which will be the final episode of this season. Part III will kick off next season.
Analogue Atlanta #14: Behind the Veil
Atlanta-Based Recording Artists Dukes of Da'Ville
This latest episode of Analogue Atlanta was a chore, folks. Just posted it after fighting with it for two days. My PC crashed twice- forcing me to start over 3 times. I can’t tell you how frustrating that is. In the madness I missed a few edits and didn’t have time to sweeten Gudrun Stone’s interview. The sound at Club Cenci was booming that night, which is weird because there were like 4 people in there at the early hour we decided to chat. I apologize for the gaff of stating Ms. Stone’s name as Gudrun “Scott” please forgive me. Watching Rob Roy and Braveheart whilst editing can have that effect. Check out Gudrun’s work here on her flickr page
I stopped by Dukes of DaVille’s place to talk to them about their upcoming projects and to find out more about their approach to music.
Next week? Atlanta Party/Mixtape DJ’s The Audubon Society, Prema Lenay and either film maker Matt Wolfe or visual artist/painter Fehamu Pecou. I haven’t decided yet. The beauty about working for free is the freedom! *shrugs*
Shannon McCollum & Dr. Joyce Wilson on Southern Hip Hop
Dr. Joyce and Shannon McCollum are both from Atlanta and have been a part of the scene’s infrastructure for years. In this video they talk with UGA students about Hip Hop culture in general and Southern Hip Hop. Analogue Atlanta will be catching up with Shannon later this month. Stay tuned.
