Gomma podcast #100: Munk “Love My Vinyl” Podcast
Matty Munk – our Gomma boss – had the very stupid idea to sell parts of his record collection. But – thank god – before selling he had a listen to his 15.000 vinyls again. And guess what happened? He decided not to give away all these pearls. Instead he will do a little series with mixes only based on his collection. Expect some ultra fresh sounding podcasts with rare 90ies underground house from little labels that nobody every heard of. Crazy technofunk, downtempo beats and electronica records that you won’t find in a store… Thanks boss for this mix!
