Are you a music lover? So is your family at the Bklyn Combine, and this week we build with two of our favorite DJ's/music men. We call them "music men" because they are both multi-faceted and music aficionados in their own right. This week we went into the crates with Asen James of FON Soundsystem and Dave Andrew of Ode To Vinyl (OTV). They spoke to Ken about their preference for vinyl and they shared insight about everything from Jazz to Hip Hop and what made them love the art form.
