It’s a brand new week of first-class future music, and we dropped a ton of fresh releases across the FM airwaves. Hour-one showcases the latest from some of electronic music’s most reputable acts: Clark returns with his latest for Warp records, and Mouse on Mars treats us to some long awaited “Parastrophics.” There is a pair of singles from Software Records, and a pair of collaborations from Orcas (Benoit Pioulard + Rafael Anton Irisarri) and Mirroring (Grouper + Tiny Vipers). Hour-two dusts off some classic Commix, while Monolake and School of Seven Bells show off new tracks from their respective “ghost” inspired albums, and Moon Wiring Club weirds up the place with his beautiful blend of sounds. Thanks for listening!

This week we joined WCRS in celebration of International Women’s Day and devoted an entire episode to some of our favorite ladies of future music. Over the course of two hours we dropped a diverse range of sounds from some top producers. In hour one, newer music from Bjork, a track from Nina Kraviz’s debut LP, more visionary pop from Grimes, and some older highlights from Dinky, and Ellen Allien. Hour two continues to trot the globe with new music from Leila, Pursuit Grooves, a killer beat from Nite Jewel’s latest album, and the triumphant return of Tujiko Noriko and her own special world of sound. Thanks for the support!

This week we present sound organized in time! Our sentient senses assigned some meaning to Mux Mool’s “Butterfly Technique,” the ascending drift of Tycho’s hazy beats, the jazzy undertones of Shigeto’s “Field Trip,” and Scuba’s great 12″ “Hope.” Releases from Marcus Fischer and Quantec remind us that the medium is about silence as well. Enjoy the music!

The drafty studio walls were warmed by these two hours of top sounds. Things begin with the patient, slow moving beats of Ghost Cauldron, and pick up with a cut from Random Rab’s latest release, “Viurreal.” New music from 1000names and Synkro show some flashes of hip-hop among subdued atmospherics, as Locked Groove closes out part-one with another stellar Hotflush Recordings release. Another killer production from Machinedrum starts an experimental second hour that features Gang Gang Dance remixing King Midas Sound, Steve Hauschildt’s twinkly kosmiche, and Feist getting the remix treatment from Beck. Thanks for tuning in!

We woke ourselves up laughing, our heads spinning to future music. Somewhere near the beginning was new music from Ninja Tune vets Funki Porcini, and at long last, DJ Food. New singles from Sei A and Julio Bashmore kept our heads above water, while Yppah played “D.Song.” The praised sounds of John Maus were ringing in our ears, and Ernest Gonzales shook a finger, informing us that synchronicity prevails. Monolake led us through polygon_cities, and near the end of the road, we flung on the turn signal and moved to Rhythm & Sound, Kaito in the driver seat. Press play to hear what happened.
