What is the underground? Is it a location? A sound? A lifestyle? The Wide Awake Stories crew invites longtime dance music journalist Zel McCarthy into the studio to debate the state of underground dance music and the culture that surrounds it. Then we get deeper into the topic with Crosstown Rebels label head and Day Zero creator Damian Lazarus, along with 30-year dance music veteran and global house music icon Doc Martin. And as always, Insomniac Music Editor Sam Yu breaks down this month’s hottest tracks in a special sub-level segment of “A New Yu.” Got a story you want to share?
