TV On The Radio - Staring At The Sun

This year’s Shortlist of Music prize winners confess their profound debt to AKAI’s revered MPC 2000, the sampler favoured by hip hop artists the world over.

I just have recording equipment. But right now it’s harder not to get kicked out of places for making noise than it is to build a studio.”
