Hot Stuff has become one of the most interesting and important magazines to document the world of 70s and beyond disco, hip-hop and more. Put together by Disco Patrick (who co-compiled our mighty encyclopaedic Disco on Soul Jazz Records), this magazine has in-depth articles on super-interesting microworlds of disco and hip-hop.
From rare disco cuts to deep dives into hip hop history, issue 15 brings together DJs, archivists, and graffiti heads in a glorious mix of grooves and visuals :
Dimitri from Paris drops 11 island disco gems, while Spanky Dee (Sedgwick Records) digs into the archives for a rare Roy Ayers interview.
There’s also a heartfelt tribute to Peggi Blu, a celebration of Rick James, and a spotlight on the lasting influence of Sabu Martinez.
The Rambo Boy’s take us on a wild ride through science and street culture, while The Dutch Graffiti Library asks: Were you looking for this one?
Interviews, essays, flyers, and vintage reports — including a deep rewind to The Mudd Club in 1980 — make this a must for fans of underground culture, past and present.
