Audio. DJ Junior Lend Me Your Ear
Audio. DJ Junior Lend Me Your Ear: DJ Junior is a great friend. He's also a phenomenal dj. We interviewed him for Dork, and he's also written a few articles for us. Due to his own humility, many don't realize how committed Junior is to music. His contributions are inmeasurable.
Once again, Junior has something for music fans. His debut release, Lend Me Your Ear is a mix of music you might miss, need to be introduced to, or wish you were hearing within the context of today's musical landscape. As ?uestlove from the Roots says, "When it comes to 'tastemakers,' that small but significant community of people who tell the world who to look out for, who affect the musical landscape, Junior is right up there in my top 3. Junior (Philly), Gilles Peterson (London) and Garth Trinidad (Los Angeles) share that stage for me. His forte…eyeing new music from both emerging and established artists and formatting it, in a way you ain’t heard. Junior introduces it to us long before it becomes a bleep on the larger screen…and later, that force to contend with." Enough said.
