3020702, Three new rare interviews
Posted by BlakStaar, Tue Dec-03-19 12:00 AM
*Gilles Peterson Worldwide interview with Egon + music playlist
I'm not done listening to this yet but it was cool because Madlib is in conversation mode with his homies rather than interview mode with a journalist (see: his awkward Red Bull Music Academy interview with Jeff Chairman Mao).

It's on Mixcloud, too: https://www.mixcloud.com/worldwidefm/gilles-peterson-with-madlib-egon-20-11-2019/
He chats about his hero, Roy Ayers; leaving Stones Throw/how tour life is different now; his mentor, Weldon Irvine and more...

If you follow Egon on IG, you know he and Madlib love wine.

Speaking of wine...

Madlib and Egon were featured in the wine mag, Noble Rot (Issue No. 21)

And here's a Madlib and Gibbs interview in major French publication, Le Monde circa October 2019

I don't know if and when that NPR Tiny Desk concert with Gibbs will drop, but hopefully, it's soon...

Off topic: I'm slippin' on Worldwide FM. There are so many interviews I need to listen to. I just found one with drummer Chris Dave that I will be checking out later this week! https://worldwidefm.net/show/brownswood-basement-gilles-peterson-with-chris-dave/
