Diggers Directory: Sean Johnston

On a drive down to Brighton together, Sean Johnston and Andrew Weatherall unearthed a musical appreciation for the slower things in life. Less lawn bowling and handkerchief hats on the promenade, more the unrushed rhythms of new beat, disco, kosmiche and post-kraut. In 2010, A Love From Outer Space was born and has grown into one of the UK's most revered parties. Growing up, Sean tells us "music represented escape, the promise of a world less mundane", but with ALFOS and his Hardway Bros production arm, music now represents one of Sean's greatest accomplishments. Not to the detriment of his home life though; a recovering vinyl addict, whose family life takes top priority. We delve deep into his life spent collecting records, accompanied by a mix recorded at Sean's kitchen table that combines the ALFOS sound with a few weird pieces from his collection.
