Description
A crate-digger’s journey through the weirder corners of electronica. Opening with Bibio’s fragile ‘Excuses’ and sliding into Brothomstates, Mira Calix and Savath & Savalas, this mix sets its stall in dreamy, off-kilter territory before Nightmares on Wax and Richard H Kirk bring some grit. Warp’s legacy looms large — LFO, Jamie Lidell, AFX, F.U.S.E., Broadcast — but it’s the sequencing that impresses, moving from playful abstraction to heavy crunch with real purpose.
Highlights? 808 State’s ‘Flow Coma’ (AFX Remix) hitting like a steel pipe in a funhouse, Rustie’s ‘Dream On’ flipping the mood to dayglo chaos, and that savage curveball of Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Beauty of Being Numb (Section B)’ just before Autechre lock the door with ‘Treale’.
Not about hands-in-the-air euphoria — this is mood-building, leftfield storytelling. Brave, immersive, and rewarding on repeat spins.
