Hefty 10 years in Berlin Video

Hefty Records is one of my favorite record labels. Based in Chicago and ran by John Hughes III, son of the late filmmaker John Hughes. Hefty has issued many remarkable albums by artist such as Telefon Tel Aviv, Eliot Lipp and Retina.it, to name a few. 3 years ago Hefty threw a 10 year anniversary party in Berlin and yesterday rtntsy6 posted this video on-line of the event. So of course I'm posting it!



BTW, if you aren't familiar with Hefty's output a great place to start is with Hefty Digest. A two disc set, featuring one disc that's a greatest hits of sorts for the label, and the second a mixtape done the phenomenal Prefuse 73.
