About this episode
In the late '90s, MTV's program Amp was responsible for giving a lot of electronic acts their first mainstream exposure, dressed up in a sleepy, late-night public-access vibe with no veejays or interviews. Returning guest Shivam Bhatt ranks it among his favorite compilations ever, and for the next two episodes, he'll be leading us through it artist by artist, song by song, break by break. So get your glowsticks ready and make sure to drink a lot of water, because Discord & Rhyme is ready to Discord & Rave.
