Let the Record Show Ep. 11: Atmosphere's Slug (All Purple Edition) Interview

Let the Record Show, the crate-dug interview series in which artists discuss their favorite songs of all time as the tracks spin on vinyl, continues its second season today with Atmosphere’s Slug.
Turning the concept of the series on its ear, Slug (aka Sean Daley) allows hosts Mike Pizzo and Warren Peace to select each of the records to be featured in the episode with one qualifier: They must be all Prince songs, pre-Batman soundtrack.
In one of the funniest and musically rich episodes of the series to date, Slug reveals intimate details of growing up in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the 1980s, a town where the spirit of Prince loomed over the city. From lip-syncing ballads to rhyming a cappella over rare Prince picture discs, the episode has it all, including a rare promo copy of the coveted “Black Album.” Plus, we get the latest update on the release of Slug’s fabled collaborative album with Alchemist entitled Lake Minnetonka.

[@damiondriscoll5604]

This is awesome, sean has guided me through my drug recovery for the past 2 years and I really enjoy these interveiws with sluggo

[@alejandroramirez4470]

if the album is real, then he should get the kickstarter going. Gotta hear the fire

[@dropkickmolotov]

This needs to be a podcast! Love it. Subbed for the big homie Slug.

[@Sadswordmaster]

Thank you, Slug.

[@TinkerTimmy78]

Slug is such a wealth of musical knowledge. It’s refreshing to hear him talk about music that he likes. Seeing things from another perspective. Just one question...Where is Ant? I want to hear his take on music. I bet he’s another book of knowledge!

[@BrendanSlob]

Ive spoken with Ant in person several times and he is even MORE of a crate digger than Slug. I would just name LP's and he could tell me the samples on it.

[@fxlkpunkrapper]

Loved every minute of this

[@electricearth1101]

HAHAHAH when Slug says to turn off Murs' Prince Remix 😂😂😂

[@erictaylor1217]

Wait, Slug has worked with Alchemist!! Even if it’s not the Prince samples one, that collab album would be insane.

[@damiondriscoll5604]

HEY Digital underground is not just for old people, i a m fifteen and i love the album sex packets.

[@daveb4841]

Cool stuff. Was surfing around youtube, lookin for some Prince talk, found this. Love Atmosphere and Slug (saw them live a few years ago). This was great. Like the channel, I don't about Warren though, you know what I'm sayin, don't front like you don't know what I'm sayin.

[@xanhteps8667]

Warren peace: that's one of the most badass names I will ever hear.

[@LetTheRecordShowTV]

There's a couple other DJ's out there with it, but WP has been rocking with it since the 80s!

[@damonmcmurray8669]

Nothing Compares 2 U was on the Emancipation double album along with his version of Break it Down he wrote for Tevin Campbell .Prince killed it!

[@devinhaxton1071]

Slugs the man!

[@theretrosavage]
