Decomposed Radio Podcast

You're back again with Decomposed radio, and a welcome return from podcast favourite Stacie-Ann Churchman, who helped us launch the Decomposed project back in the day, with a storming mix of deep, dark and very tough techno for only the 2nd ever show!! Since then, tons of people have been pecking us to get her back on the podcast, so I'm super psyched to feature her again, this time with a slightly more leftfield mix, with the same high quality as we've come to expect. Three years on from Decomposed Radio show #002, Stacie-Ann's still doing her thing music and techno wise, and has some exciting, if secret projects in the pipeline with various labels. She's promised to keep us in the loop, so watch this space and we'll ensure to word you up when the time comes! If you've not checked her outrageously good mix from show number 002 out, we highly recommend you do ASAP, but in the meantime, I'm happy to welcome back Stacie-Ann Churchman, in the mix, for Decomposed Radio show #069...........

Welcome to a very special Decomposed Radio 3rd anniversary show! Just over 3 years ago, I had a bit of a mad "eureka" type moment when I realised just how much amazing musical talent that I was surrounded by in my extended circle of friends, family and artists that I'd been lucky enough to share the decks with at some amazing events and parties over the years, and decided to create a podcast with the aim of showcasing some of these talented individuals. Decomposed Radio was born, and since then it's snowballed along nicely, and I'm really proud of the collection of amazing artists and mixes that we've accumulated, and made accessible to people. For the third anniversary show, it was always gonna have to be something pretty special, and I wanted to put together something a bit different, so I roped in Decomposed radio favourite DJ Galup, also know as Sam Whittaker, for a special B2B mix alongside myself. We got psyched and got the beers in, turned up the speaker volume and with no real plan just dived headlong straight into a freestyle 2 hour recording session that seemed to fly by in no time! I'm really happy with the end result, which is a full excursion through some great and varied techno records, with each of us reading each others mind with track selection at times and randomly jumping into the mix to layer in extra tracks and effects to spice things up! It's also a bit of a battle between the light and the darkness, with us both pulling in different directions throughout the two hours, which hopefully gives it a good dynamic, and keeps it interesting. Huge huge thanks to all the listeners for your support, pyche and encouragement over the years. Please please keep sharing and spreading the word, it really does help us do what we do!! So now.....Decomposed Radio presents...... Galup vs GusN8r.....a special back 2 back mix for the 3 year anniversary show! It's not going off.......it's gone off.......

You're back with Decomposed Radio. After a bit of a short summer holiday, we're firmly back on it with Show #067, not to mention a very special B2B mix for our 3rd anniversary incoming on show 068! This time round I'm super psyched to welcome "Anagramm" one of the original founding members of the incredible "Sheffield Techno Institute" who are to blame for putting on the best local techno nights and parties for the last 10 years! Also known as Fred Oxby, I've been really looking forward to getting him on the show. He's a highly accomplished musician, producer and DJ, having been at the helm of UK label "Planet Terror Records" as well as enjoying releases on "Red Skull Records" from Hungary, and French Label "Pavillion 36."

The mix he's put together for show 067, is one of my favourie off- genre sets on the show for quite a while, featuring all things funky, wonky and ravey, including amen breaks, house, and good old detroit techno, all put together with a pair of technica and a pile of quality vinyl! So here goes, this is Anagramm, in the mix, for Decomposed Radio #067......

It's high time for another Decomposed Radio, and for our 66th show we're again heading over to deepest darkest North Wales, which has become a bit of a techno hotbed! Today's mix is provided by "Translate" a DJ/ producer duo consisting of local artists "Becket" and "Vidian." Becket's solo mix of outstanding techno all the way back on show 024 is still one of the most downloaded episodes, and when these two guys team up under the Translate alias they concentrate on the darker, deeper and sometimes more simplistic industrial sound of techno. As such the mix you're about to hear will be a real treat for the purists out there! Becket and Vidian have only been performing together as Translate for around 6 months now, and this will be the first mix that they're putting out there, so we're incredibly honoured to be featuring it here on Decomposed Radio. Translate will be playing the closing set of the Gottwood Festival on Anglesey later this year, so if you're in North Wales on the 9th of June definitely check that out! I can also highly recommend that you head over to Soundcloud for more information on these guys, as well as original productions, tracks and loads more mixes.

So without further delay, Decomposed Radio proudly presents an exclusive mix from "Translate" for show 066. It's not going off, it's gone off...........

You're back with Decomposed Radio.

For show 065 we're featuring new DJ talent and friend of the show, "Jeorgia," who's put together a deep and dreamy mix of Sunday morning techno for us.

Jeorgia's become a familiar and more than competent face behind the decks at lots of events that the Decomposed Radio crew and regulars frequent, as well as single handedly co-ordinating what sounded like an incredible party in a cave, somewhere in Dorset last August! Any listeners familiar with Richie Hawtin's "Closer to the Edit" mix are really going to appreciate this one, with some fantastic unique tracks in there and a really nice vibe to it.

So settle in for the next hour or so, with Jeorgia, in the mix for Decomposed Radio show 065......

Spring is most definitely springing and it's time for Decomposed Radio number 064! This time around we have Bristol based DJ and producer "Beat Mongrel." Also known as Paul Twomey, he's one of the original climber/ DJ's and has been a big influence and inspiration behind my own music and DJing over the years since meeting him out in Spain back in the day, whilst out on a European climbing trip. He helped me out of a bit of a tight spot when I was stranded at the "La Mussara Refugio" after crashing the trip car, and generously supplied me with lifts and belays, whilst also getting me psyched for his music. He was always that hard working face behind the decks at the original and awesome Dorset DWS parties, along with some truly outrageous Pembroke bank holiday weekend raves, and has put together a deep tech house mix perfect for the sunny spring vibes around at the moment. So turn it up loud, and get right in the mix with Beat Mongrel, for Decomposed Radio 064..........

Hi and welcome back to Decomposed Radio. For show 063 we have another techno treat lined up for you, Sheffield DJ "Brutalist," which in a genre packed to the rafters with fierce DJ monikers is a strong contender for "most savage....."

As such, he's known to his friends as George Boynton, and is a thoroughly sound geezer. He's the founder and curator off up and coming Sheffield techno event "Magnetic North" which already has successful nights under it's belt at venues like The Harley, and Cafe Totem. He's played sets in a multitude of different cities and venues, and held down residencies in both his hometown of Hull, and here in Sheffield. He's a great example of the sort of young, talented, passionate and pro-active DJ's really putting the effort into the scene, who deserve as much exposure as possible, so make sure you get Brutalist and Magnetic North firmly on your radar! His mix takes us on a journey through some of his favourite recent releases spanning sounds of ambient, techno, electro and even some fast and feisty trance, with influences from labels such as "Blue Hour" and "Kulor-kulor - 001" So crank it up and get in the mix, with Brutalist, for Decomposed Radio show #063........

Welcome to another very special, climbing inspired Decomposed Radio.

Back on Show 053, we featured a unique mix of the amazing original music from one of the most iconic climbing films around....."Hard Grit." It was really popular with Decomposed Radio listeners, so since then I've been working hard to collect all the music from another old skool and equally iconic climbing film...."The Real Thing" which features Ben Moon and Jerry Moffatt dishing out the justice on some hard and classic boulders in the magical forest of Fontainbleau.

You can say what you want about Alex Honnold's impressive "Free Solo" that's showing at the flicks at the moment, but those of us that are really clued up know that the best climbing films ever made, are The Real Thing and Hard Grit, and as ever it's always the music that helps make a film truly great!

So with this in mind, Decomposed Radio proudly presents your training and climbing soundtrack for the 2019 season.....Get ready to get your old skool funk and tech trance heads on, get down to some nitty gritty climbing, be rayt positive, and smash in some personal bests on your birthday.......This is The Real Thing mix on Decomposed Radio show 062....."In the snow....."

Welcome to the discotheque for Decomposed Radio 061, and our final rewind and revisit to Plug Nightclub in Sheffield back in December. DJ GALUP, also well known throughout the techno and climbing scenes as Sam Whittaker has been the driving force behind the outrageously good annual "Works Party" for 12 years now and is a huge Decomposed Radio favourite. His previous appearances on the show are by far and away the most popular mixes, clocking up over 6,000 downloads to date. So by now you'll have come to expect no less than an absolute smasher of a mix from this guy, and I'm glad to say you won't be disappointed with this live recording of his awesome and varied set between 2am and 4am at Plug on the 7th of December.

There's not much more that needs saying here, you know exactly what's coming, so batten down the hatches, lock off 'til you black out, and get your froth on, with DJ Galup live in the mix at Plug nighclub in Sheffield, for Decomposed Radio show #061.......

You're back with Decomposed Radio. For today's show we're again rewinding to an amazing night of mayhem and music at the infamous "Works Party" at Plug in Sheffield back in December.

This time around we have Decomposed Radio big boss, GusN8r, who's tough and frantic set between 4 and 6am closed out the main event, before we headed for round 2 at the afterparty! It was an incredible feeling to cue up a first track and look out across a dark dancefloor, only for a light to flash illuminating hundreds of people, including many close friends getting ready to go crackers and share some epic moments together.

So hopefully you enjoy this mix as much as we did putting it together and reliving it! Standby standy for Gus Hudgins, live in the mix at Plug, Sheffield....
