The beat legend BoomBaptist talks to the Taste of Vinyl boys about his early love for hip-hop, basketball rappers, NBA Jam, and a donut company that shall remain nameless. He tells us what inspired the transition from being a scratch DJ (we learn about maxi-singles, so cool) into the world of instrumental beat production. The creation of tribute albums Boom Shakalaka and Komfort Food, both available on vinyl at the BoomBaptist Bandcamp site and fatbeats.com. And we hear about the band he's been working with called The Vapor Caves, their time on the road touring, their connection to Broad City and male strippers, as well as upcoming projects for the band.
