Darkfloor Sound

November 2022 on Melodic Distraction (https://soundcloud.com/melodic-distraction).

In the mix, 60 minutes of upfront electro, broken beats, bass, industrial shards, and a dash of Italo flavoured cuts. Most of this month's selection is fairly recent stuff, a couple of which are not out just yet. The show opened with a sharp IDM cut from the brand new album from Oberman Knocks, into a forthcoming power ambient thing from Danny Passarella and Mitch Marcus due out in December. Chris Gilmore shows us his industrial and noisy side with a cut from his new album for Florida's MuteAnt Sounds. Regis remixes the beautiful sound of Veronica Vasicka. There's the first piece of Italo flavour from Dina Summer. Some electro from Peckham's FYI Chris. Recent material from London's EPMmusic and Sheffield's Central Processing Unit. A lesser heard remix of a Warp classic in the shape of Two Lone Swordmen. New material from Primus, Rico Casazza for Cultivated Electronics. A reissue of The Exaltics. One of our own, in the shape of Hedchef, and the electrifying stepper Cortical Vault. Heavyweight filth from Sissel and Peder Mannerfelt reworking Marc Acardipane. Electro slammers from Ben Pest and one of the newest cuts from the ever on it, Ilian Tape. Before closing with the deep Italo driving sounds of Machia & Velli.

Shouts to producer Toby, and the studio crew, Aaron, Alice, Amy, and Ola.

Next show: December 17th. 19:00

Introducing the sound of British producer Interjector (@interjector).

Over the years Interjector has produced a range of electronic music, under a myriad of monikers. PRIMER features his earliest material as Fracas through to his exceptional sounding techno as Interjector, mangling found sound into layers of textured rhythm and panel beaten headspace industrial music, culminating in his debut EP - Parashimmers.
