A History Lesson With Greg Wilson

There’s no way we could possibly express what an honor it was to have the legendary Greg Wilson (@dj_greg_wilson) on the pod for an in depth history lesson of electro and his roots in dance music as a dj. This episode is important to us on so many levels because so many of these stories needed to be told for djs and producers to grasp a full perspective of what was going on in the early 80s to lead into the rave movement and the explosion of dance music worldwide. If there’s any episode you listen to from the show, let it be this one. Thank you a million times over Greg, this is a conversation we will cherish forever.
