Shan and OB welcome onboard a 26-year veteran of the music industry, DJ Platurn. As the founder of both the Oakland Faders and the world-renowned 45 Sessions parties (which really re-ignited the entire 45’s craze), plus a sick party DJ in his own right, Platurn has toured the world many times to bring his type of party to every conceivable dance floor. With a client list that includes Red Bull, Toyota, Adidas, Pixar and the Golden State Warriors, you know he’s the real deal. When not digging for wax, he’s producing music for documentaries, cutting up master recordings into his own edits of obscure (and not so obscure) jams and funking up classic hiphop, the original samples and live instrumentation into the sickest mixtapes on the planet.
Platurn has a new project out with LA-native Savannah Lancaster under the guise of SUNDUR. It’s a different side of Platurn that really takes stock of a twisted Covid-stricken world and let’s it all out in a groovy downtempo type of vibe that we here at the station loved upon first listen and think you will too.
So listen in to get the lowdown on what’s been going on with this Icelandic native, plus Shan and OB drop some Platurn exclusives along with a couple of banging sets of funk, disco, house and boogie madness.
