0860.fm INTERVIEW #10 Om Unit & Laurent Fintoni by Fracture published on 2022-11-11T16:02:28Z Om Unit & Laurent Fintoni ran an early online stream from their front room in Tulse Hill called La Maisonette Electronique from 2010 to 2013. It was a real community hub with artists from all over the world crashing at their flat while on tour and then playing on the stream. It was an incredible time of cross pollination of styles and really helped paved the way for me to make tracks such as Loving Touch and opened my ears to artists outside of my Jungle roots. We went off on a real deep conversation about music - Footwork Jungle and the LA beat scene, the effect of the internet and how community can continue to exist in an online sense. Be sure to check out Om Unit’s new album Acid Dub Studies and Laurent’s book ‘BEDROOM BEATS & B-SIDES’ 0860 is an album, mixtape, radio station and interview series that explores the history and legacy of Pirate Radio and its importance in the development of UK underground music.

Genre Entertainment Comment by Alegria Loved this entire conversation SO MUCH!

A really memorable moment was Jim playing Solar Cycle for the first time and being mind blown :) 2022-11-14T12:05:37Z Comment by The Desk Raver This was a really great listen, thanks. 2022-11-12T13:20:57Z
