In celebration of their 15th anniversary, Red Bull Music Academy teamed up with filmmaker Ralf Schmerberg to make a documentary titled What Difference Does It Make? A Film About Making Music. It features Egyptian Lover amongst many other sonic luminaries. At the Los Angeles premiere, proudly co-presented by dublab, Egypt sat down with How to Wreck a Nice Beach author Dave Tompkins to talk electro evolution, 808’s, LA hip hop history and more. Enjoy this archive of the discussion. *Egyptian Lover mural, La Rutan barbershop, South Central Los Angeles (photograph by Brian Cross)
