Disco Pogo
Issue 1 / Gilles Peterson
“I’m there for the bit on the way up and the bit on the way down, although now I’ve got good numbers on social media they stay with me while they’re up too.”
Gilles Peterson
The first issue of Disco Pogo immediately sets out our stall. As well as celebrating the rich history of leftfield electronic music, we want to highlight the very best of what’s fresh and new. Most importantly, we want to connect the two.
Gilles Peterson spoke about how he was still living the dream as he reflected upon a life in music. This was no nostalgia-tinged chat mind, his eyes were firmly fixed on the present and future.
