Like legendary treasure-hunters, Kon & Amir have spent the past 30 years excavating record bins finding gems to pierce ears with. Fortunately, everyone gets to share in the riches of their labour with the release of their mixtapes and compilations. Long forgotten musicians are getting their proper dues and appreciative audiences are being turned on to some amazing music. Since first putting it down together in 1997, the duo has released a total of eight albums; various On Trackinstallments of critical acclaim, another album called The Cleaning, and an album appropriately titled,The Kings Of Diggin along with DJ Muro from Japan. With their wildly-successful Off Track series on BBE Records, they have managed to salvage some of the greatest music you’ve never heard. Audiences who are tired of being force fed sub par music will thank them for providing an alternative. As Amir puts it: “We made this for the neglected audience, for people who are looking for mature music. Simply put, these treasures are food for the soul.”
