The fourth episode of Variations, Jon Leidecker´s curated series about collage and music commissioned by Radio Web Macba, the author dives in the collage experimentation tradition that happened in the 70s underground industrial music scene. But it was Hip hop that made collage enter into popular music, when DJ´s made the mixer and the turntables musical instruments. At the same time, a new technology became increasingly more affordable: the digital sampler.Separate threads from different cultural backgrounds, traced as they rise to converge.
