Tarik Thornton - Straight From The Play Box

Big thanks to Tarik Thornton for the 76th "Straight From The Play Box" mix.

"I am a New Orleans native, but I currently reside in Minneapolis, MN. I’ve been involved with music since the age of two. I first started spinning my parents’ 45’s back in the late 70’s. My dad would take me record digging with him every Saturday, which helped shaped the person that I am today. I have played with the likes of DJ FineWine (WFMU), Justin Salinas & The Hot Pants Crew (Minneapolis), Hip Shaker DJs (Minneapolis), and a host of very fine tuned Souls all over the U.S. Every 45 DJ has his own vibe, which always makes things fresh. That’s what I enjoy the most about spinning 45’s. On that note, I hope you all enjoy the mix.
