In this episode of The Artist Breakthrough Podcast, Pete sits down with Stuart Knight (Co-founder of Toolroom) and Chris Goss (Co-founder of Hospital Records) to unpack how dance music culture has shifted over the last 30 years - from vinyl, white labels and packed record shops to Boiler Room, phones on the dancefloor, and the rise of DJ celebrity culture.
They go deep on how independent labels were built from nothing, the real hustle behind early club culture, why events have become riskier than ever, and whether the music has been lost in the performance. It’s an honest, unfiltered conversation about community, legacy, and what actually matters if you’re trying to break through today.
