Bside Incoming: Bill Brewster

Bside Incoming: Bill Brewster This week we have the pleasure of presenting you a man who knows the ins and outs of the industry, a DJ, a music writer and compiler. When he’s not tearing up dancefloors at some of the worlds best party spots like London’s Fabric, he’s working away at the discovery and promotion of new music. Through his own deep house label Forensic, editing Mixmag USA, curating the After Dark spin off series of the amazing late night tale compilations, or writing an in depth book dedicated to the profession ‘Last Night a DJ Saved My Life’ . Safe to say Bill’s a busy man, so we’re certainly delighted that he’s taken the time to share with us some of the many Bside gems discovered over 50 years of collecting, throughout a long and illustrious career in the music industry. And gems of the purist Bside variety they are: some post punk experimentation into electronic music, soul music of the highly collectible kind, charity shop magic, and a sprinkling of the deepest dance floor grooves.

Om Podcasten

Bside podcasts DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records. We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side: a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors. An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between. Music is for sharing. 'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
