Barbie and Paul are highly ambitious and successful people but extremely humble to the point of self-deprecating, despite being the preeminent documentarians and torch-bearers of the scene. Their current projects include producing the well-curated and beautifully designed (by Paul) zine on a roughly monthly basis for the past four years; hosting monthly sessions of the NYC arm of Classic Album Sundays, an international series of hi-fi vinyl listening events; holding down a weekly radio show at The Lot every Saturday morning from 10-12 (Friday night gig or no)...

Vincent Williams, known to the world as DJ Spinna, and I are old friends. I have been lucky enough to work with (and for) him many times over the years. From spinning Brooklyn basement parties together in the ‘90s to all-night mixing sessions at my studio. He has also been something of a record collecting mentor to me, as I’m sure he has been to countless others, directly or indirectly.
