What do you call a music scene with no name?

The lack of a commonly-accepted moniker for the mid-to-late 90s movement centred around Ninja Tune and Gilles Peterson amongst others is a real anomaly in contemporary music. One of the most interesting insights from our guest this week, Mr Scruff, is the revelation not even the DJs themselves referred to it as anything in particular. That's pretty crazy!

This is a great conversation, a classic episode even. We discuss Manchester, sampling, tape editing, record collecting, as well as the AI stuff and the general making of ones way in the music scene.
