Artist in heart and soul, Gurney-Champion draws inspiration from the 80’s and 90’s, pop music, culture and contemporary art. He loves to play without boundaries: from proper club tunes to easy listening music and from jazz & soul to house & techno. And always on the lookout for hidden gems and b-sides.

Cold outside ~ warm inside. It's the contrast between the grey skies & buildings, the ice-cold snow-covered nature, and the more-than-human warmth that exists within. 𓇢𓆸𓇢𓆸𓇢𓆸𓇢𓆸𓇢𓆸𓇢𓆸 brutalist poem is an exploration of the raw and layered soundscapes of Eastern Europe, shaped by social fragmentation, nostalgia, and the disillusionment of the post-socialist experience. Each episode captures the grit and beauty of the region’s transformation, spotlighting both local artists and those carrying Eastern European roots. Brutalist poem explores reclaiming and reimagination of identity, inviting listeners to reflect on resilience, creativity, and the shared spirit of a place that pulses with both memory and possibility.
