For NSP #50, we spoke with Pirate Wire Services editor and radical journalist Joshua Collins.

Joshua became a freelance journalist by accident after he ended up living on the Colombian-Venezuelan border in 2017 (also by accident). His career was driven primarily in the beginning by simply being willing to go to regions no one else would. He is now focused on borders, social movements and the impact of criminality on human rights. Joshua is the editor of Pirate Wire Services.

Ep. 19 "Dimensions" (Deep progressive Trance,Vinyl)

Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, and deeply rooted in the gritty heartbeat of Southern nightlife, Cameron Clark of Sunset Sessions Hollywood CA is a vinyl-purist DJ with over three decades of experience behind the decks. Known for his unparalleled collection of rare records and signature blends of UK progressive house, deep trance, and Florida-style funky breakbeats, he’s a living historian of underground dance music.

His journey began with humble college parties powered by two CD players, a tape deck, and a two-channel mixer—but the true turning point came in 1995 when he fell in love with vinyl. From there, the sound of crackling grooves and booming basslines became his religion.
