Platurn
When DJing went digital in the mid-2000s, and vinyl fell out of favor on the dancefloor, Iceland-native DJ Platurn decided to throw a party to celebrate the 45 rpm 7-inch format. What started as a get-together among vinyl-admiring friends has turned into the 45 Sessions–‘the West Coast’s premiere all-45 RPM outlet.’ Platurn helped restore 45s' status as an iconic DJing medium because he devoted the better part of his career to being a vinyl DJ.
