Ben Diggin of Boombox LA | Beats of All-Nations Radio 059

Ben Diggin is co-founder of Los Angeles’ premier Hip Hop party for the last 15 years, Boombox LA. He joins us with two mixes of heavy and rare music from Africa to Latin America in a hip hop style of djing. We talk about his approach when playing out, the last year of live-streaming and what’s to come as mandates start to ease up.

We open the show with a new producer mix from Cell Uno. We review the six dense mixes he has contributed to the show over the last year and his process in putting them together.

Shout out to Mndsgn, we share several pieces from his new album Rare Pleasure available now.
