DJs Stinky Jim and Dubhead have each been broadcasting on Auckland’s 95bFM for over two decades. Specialising in Jamaican and afro-influenced tunes, they’ve been - and still are - the selectors and ambassadors of bass culture.
Tony Stamp catches up with them the week they celebrate a big milestone, to ask about their love of riddims, and find out how they’ve ensured their longevity in the digital age.
