From my most recent dig… I am lucky to have mounds of records waiting to be discovered but a 15 minute drive away. When I started digging, I struggled with the nuances of the records in this city, but now digging in Minnesota is my ultimate secret weapon. After digging for more than 10 years, my intuition has really started to click and move me, not just when I am flipping through records but also if I listen, it tells me where to visit… what an absolute Mystery of Ages. No wonder my DJ sets have become such spiritual endeavors… if you listen, maybe the music will lead you to where you need to go…

ミネソタで最近発掘したアルバム。家から車で15分以内には凄い山のレコードがいつも待っている。掘り始めは苦労したけど、今ではミネソタで掘るのが一番の切り札。やはり10年以上掘っていると「勘」の動きが違う。レコードを掘る前にどのレコ屋に行くべきか、これも聞けば教えてくれる。さー、摩訶不思議な世界。DJのプレイもスピリチュアルになるわけだ。。。導きを今日も求めて。
