Incredibly honored to interview one of the foremost producers in Pittsburgh and one of the frontrunners of the modern funk movement. Buscrates has been going strong now crafting unique compositions from a dizzying array of hardware synths, drum machines and samplers for decades but don't sleep on the DJing. His 45 sets are absolutely dynamic and on twitch you will get a head nod education every Friday at 5p if you are wise enough to tune in for science function. I know I have a lot more to cover with this incredible artist and look forward to the next of hopefully many sessions.
