Start your week with a selection of classic funk, reggae and hip-hop from the record bag of Britain's very own Scratch Pervert, Mr Thing...

Mr Thing aka Mark Bowles is a member of the original Scratch Pervert crew who, along with Tony, Joel and Paul, won the World DMC team championships in 1999.

Mr Thing since went on to form the Extended Players with Harry Love and became an acclaimed producer in his own right, working with most of the UK's best MCs. From the early years, Mr Thing has always been as into collecting and playing records as he is into making beats and this Red Bull Music Academy Radio show showcases some of his favourite breaks from his years as a collector….
