This week's guest was Pete who runs No Hats No Hoods, the seminal grime record label. NHNH have previously released iconic records by Tempa T, P Money and Ruff Sqwad and - more recently - young South Londoners like Elf Kid and The Square. The label's latest project takes them out of London and into the Horn of Africa, where they collaborated with Ethiopian musicians who recorded instrumental tracks for UK producers to then play with. The results are fascinating and diverse in style, from Proc Fiskal's abstract boundary-pushing 'Geez Script' to Shudan's more conventionally melodic 'Hyena's of Harar', via a pioneering 3/4 grime beat by Ignorants. Pete was a great guest and gave a lot of insight into the project. Enjoy!
