THE ORAL HISTORY OF THE TUNNEL
Yo my friends at Complex wrote a dope article about the craziest club in NYC during the ’90s….the only club where records you would not hear at any other club because they were too hard was played….where street records, which would usually just be album cuts, became their own genre….yup the legendary TUNNEL!

dope! i was a student of flex. i was aware of the tunnel back in 95 when i was 14 wondering how it looked and what the fuck was going on in there.
That’s why juan epstein 10 is probably my favorite because you spoke about your experiences with flex and the tunnel. i’m sure you got plenty of other stories you can share on juan ep.
you should have an episode just talking about the tunnel, but i know you won’t. but it’s all good.
