No journalist is more dedicated to documenting the most fried corners of online music + culture than Kieran Press-Reynolds, which is why it's such a pleasure to have him contribute a guest recommendation to today's First Floor. p.s. Brazilian funk fiends won't want to miss this one.
I know that Vincent Bevins isn't the likeliest candidate for a First Floor interview, but when I wanted to talk about the politicization of cultural discourse and the role of the media (and social media) in that, I figured it made sense to look beyond the DJ circuit.
There's an interview with Future Retro Records - Tim Reaper up at First Floor free to read for the next 24 hours - link in bio - 'In Full Effect' his new album alongside Kloke is pre-ordering now.
The upcoming book from Emily Witt is quite unlike most dance music titles, and is primarily set in the Bushwick scene during a time of mass political and social upheaval. She told me about that and more in an interview for First Floor. Link in the usual spot.
Had a really nice conversation with Shawn Reynaldo for his music newsletter First Floor that's unpaywalled for 24 hours.
