45 Live Radio Show
05.15.20
Hosted Team member Greg Belson, a highly respected, LA-based DJ on the rare soul/funk scene, hosts the monthly dublab show 45 Live. It’s about the love of music, the love of vinyl and having an excellent old time of it. Whatever you do, keep it 45.
45 Live is a collective of DJs from across Europe and the USA who have come together to indulge in and celebrate their love of the mighty 45rpm 7″ single. Hailing from all corners of popular and niche music scenes, the love of the 45 is what drew them all together. Created by UK based DJs Boca 45 and Pete Isaac, 45 Live is fast growing into a record label, festival circuit and events brand, and regular club night session
Coming on next on the 45 Live Radio Show, it’s about that time to welcome back in to the studio, a World Champion turntablist. It’s Friday 15th May 2020 on @dublab at 8pm US PDT (4am UK GMT), and yeah, it’s the audio hot stepper himself;
DJ MR THING
Known worldwide as a DJ & turntablist, he first touched the tables in 1987 and has been non-stop perfecting his art since. He’s now one of the worlds best at his craft. It’s a joy to invite him in to the studio and as he creates flawless and exciting sets mixing some of the rarest records with some of the best loved records ever heard with an apparently effortless ease honed after years of practice.
He has won DJ battles, both solo and as part of the Scratch Perverts…and now he’s beaming live and direct to your listening device as part of the 45 Live crew.
Your host Greg Belson bookends the set with his well stacked racks of quality business. This week, he’s rolling out the vintage r&b, OG style.
