Arthur Baker - Ep. 6

From producing Afrika Bambaataa’s revolutionary song “Planet Rock” to introducing the 808 drum machine to hip hop and electro, to working with New Order, Hall & Oates and the Pet Shop Boys, Arthur Baker’s imprint on 1980’s dance music is enormous. He talks about growing up in Boston and shares anecdotes about the movie Beat Street and a rare Miles Davis studio session. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
