congrats to my dude @owang.bsky.social on 20 years 🤝 soul-sides has always been a huge inspiration.

gentle reminder that this book i edited (i got prince paul to do the foreword!) is out now and is seriously a gorgeous coffee table book, especially if you’re into vinyl/music. great images (by eilon paz!) and a host of renowned artists and collectors are featured.

love to see this.
