Last year, South Korea’s Extra Noir asked “What links a mall Santa in Singapore with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak? Scottish bard Robert Burns and Tales from the Crypt? What connects a cry for love in the industrial heart of Seoul with Algernon Blackwood spiking a batch of eggnog?”The answer, of course, was their Christmas charity compilation,…

Here's the conclusion of our four-part dub series. Throughout the series we've tried to use a fairly loose interpretation of dub, without straying too far from its fundamentals. Therefore the whole series is inflected with post-punk, industrial, techno and other styles that have adopted dub techniques to keep the form evolving. Tracklist:Wrong Kind…

This is the third of four episodes focused on dub music and its different permutations. You can expect original Jamaican dub, of course, but we've also tried to trace some of the influence of dub on other forms of music, such as post-punk, industrial and techno.

He is a resident DJ at Shibuya's well-established clubs “OTO” and “Organ Bar", and also plays selections from his extensive and eclectic vinyl collection at live band events and hotel lounges.…

The Blue Lady's first EP is a nocturnal plunge into territories of anxiety, phobia and dread. Drawing on ambient, horror soundtrack and abstract hip hop influences, Frolic makes use of synthesizers and live instruments (drum machine, melodica, sampler) to bring this dark, interior world into the light.Available here: https://thebluelady.bandcamp.co…

It’s somewhat odd to think that something so commonplace, something that was once so integral to the subcultures in which we grew up and migrated between, would become worthy of its own exhibition. As the recent swell of interest in zines (artistic, academic and otherwise) has revealed, however, these products are often indispensable cultural artef…

Right now it's had to put anything into the world without it feeling like a statement about the COVID-19 situation. This episode isn't intended to be a statement of any kind, but at the same time, it felt flippant to just do a normal episode. So this one's a bit more sombre than usual, though we hope there's some enjoyment you can wring from it.Tra…
