Aiight people. I’ve been toying with the idea of monthly dig diary for a minute now. A dig diary ain’t nothing but a fancy name for a bunch of songs played in succession and documented in a conveniently downloadable format for your listening pleasure. Basically, I felt it was finally time to give my record-digging addiction a purpose. So I connected with my mans Kaewonder from themeaningofdope.com to provide a glimpse into the collections of two hip hop heads with a love for soul, funk, psych, jazz (yes, jazz, don’t hate on jazz). Be forewarned. This ain’t only about who sampled what. We love this music shit too much to confine ourselves to that. 1 hour of straight playable heat. Original vinyl only. And we ain’t scared to let off the tracklist either. We give you Cratery, Volume 1. -ARCEE
