The Week – DJ Gigola on meditation, Albmania, Burna Boy

Can a DJ set be a guided meditation? This week OttO Kent talks to DJ Gigola about dance music as body music, her album “Fluid Meditations” and how everything is rhythmical. And since they both share a soft spot for ASMR, of course they had to try it in the studio. Plus: Burna Boy making history, Boiler Room Broadcasting Lab, Albania as the hot spot for the summer, cashing in on noise complaints, and your weekly recommendation – this week with DJ and producer BEC calling in from Berlin.
