Pulp Corn Recordings is a personal favorite anonymous artist-bootleg focused label. Their releases use a wide variety of samples often based in film.

Pulp Corn 007 pays homage to 007 with two records rooted in James Bond samples.

Unknown - Untitled A (aka Special Agent Corn)

Saint Lukez is bringing deep house back to today’s generation on London’s dancefloors. He has been a huge inspiration to me over the last few years.

His collab-take on an old school gem marked his first official pressing last year.

Opener sets are why I love vinyl. There is nothing more rewarding than building a deep bag of lower energy grooves.

This 2003 record released on the unknown Payola Records, as the unknown artist’s only recorded release, and was repressed in 2021.

Hood Rats - Tha Whack Messiah
