Around the World in 60 minutes with DJ Le Spam & DJ Waterbed Kev aka DJ Spike Driver aka DJ Rabbit Foot

A FOLKWAYS RECORDS Travelogue

Saturday, February 7th from 7:00-9:00 pm

Please join us this Saturday night from 7-9:00 pm for Around the World in 60 minutes with DJ Le Spam & DJ Waterbed Kev aka DJ Spike Driver aka DJ Rabbit Foot

Andrew Yeomanson and Kevin Arrow will cull from their own private sound archive to play rare vintage vinyl recordings, mainly selected from the Smithsonian’s Folkways Records collection.

Folkways sought to record and document music and sounds from all over the globe. The albums are very diverse in content including traditional and contemporary music from around the world; spoken word, poetry, and multi-lingual instructional recordings; and field recordings of communities, individuals, and natural sounds.

Andrew and Kevin will collage together a selection of their favorites, creating a unique Folkways Records collaborative travelogue. In addition to this sound activation, a selection of related Folkways ephemera will be on display at EXILE Books.

This night will conclude the exhibition Books Fuel Ideas and EXILE Books will be deinstalled to move on to it’s next location.
