The Alpha and Omega of Deep House: Giles Smith on Larry Heard

DJ, producer, promoter, A&R and broadcaster, Giles Smith takes over the Listening Room at 180 Studios for a talk and listening session dedicated to Larry Heard, Mr Fingers, the artist he calls "the alpha and omega of deep house. Played through Devon Turnbull's bespoke sound system, Smith digs into Heard's four-decade catalogue from his early days recording with a Jupiter 6 and a TR-707, all the way to the current day. The Listening Room is an ongoing series from The Vinyl Factory in which artists, selectors and writers explore music through focused listening and archival research.
