Ayana Contreras does not play new vinyl records — she's only into the old stuff, the forgotten sounds that crackle and pop and never quite made it to Spotify or iTunes.

On this week's Here & Now DJ Sessions, host Jeremy Hobson speaks with Contreras (@ReclaimedSoul), DJ of "Reclaimed Soul" on Vocalo radio in Chicago, and producer for WBEZ's "Sound Opinions."

Music From The Segment

The Isley Brothers, "Who's That Lady" (1964 version)

Nancy Wilson, "Ain't No Sunshine"

Merrilee Rush, "Reach Out"

Coro Nacional de Cuba, "Michelle"

This segment aired on July 5, 2018.
