I picked up all these tracks while manning the counter at Tribe Records in Kirkgate (Leeds).

🗣️ Q&A with edv3ctor 🗣️
⏳ How long have you been collecting and mixing for?
I probably made my first mixtape when I was about 13 or 14. I started seriously collecting vinyl when I came to Leeds way back when & got jobs working in the then-thriving record shops. It's all about the pre-internet era.
💡 What sparked your interest in digging/collecting?
I've always been around music & music has always been around me.
🔍 Where do you find your music?
Everywhere!! Usually in brick & mortar shops, more & more online. I tend to splurge when I go to new cities/countries. I’ve got favorite spots in Manchester, Glasgow & London, and obviously, I try to keep an eye on all the Leeds spots. Buying records is becoming more & more of a luxury. I feel lucky to know some great artists who give me their work.
🎶 Any label/artist/collective recommendations for someone to start digging?
Oh gawd!! Where shall I start? Haha. Maybe with the complete works of Otis Jackson Jr. aka Madlib, the whole back catalogue of Total Science and all their aka’s. I’d quite like the ECM catalogue too.
🌟 Is there anyone that you take inspiration from? If so, who and why?
I’ve got some pretty spectacular friends & allies who inspire me all the time. They know who they are & they know that I love them.
