Auckland sound architect Totems has been doing things on his own terms for a long time. His Kerosene Comic Book imprint provided a refuge for wayward beatmakers a decade ago (check the recently reissued compilations via Melb imprint Legacy Records). More recently, he has come back into the spotlight with a double A-side via MONGO SKATO's Buzzy Point, the first in a string of releases due this year. Reuben goes fever pitch for 80 minutes with a journey through all of his touchstones.

Excelle is a long-time friend of the FP crew, dating back to when she ran things at Samurai Music in Wellington (RIP). Nat's bold and considered style carries from her visual work, including our much loved hugging-cats, to her DJ sets. Now based in Melbourne, you can catch her soundtracking life at Black Cat and other haunts across the city when they re-open. Her mix is a paean to blue skies and open hearts.

Que Sakamoto is a producer and DJ with deep roots in the Tokyo underground. He is one of the founders of Huit Etoiles, and his far ranging and psychedelic sound has been caught on labels like Roam Recordings, Not An Animal Records, Wonder Stories, and Hard Fist. His mix is in advance of an antipodean tour, which will happen somewhat later than anticipated. Expect a set that will burrow its way into your soul.

Since we last heard from Eddie in 2018, he's released a clutch of music for Of Leisure, and provided the score to Vestige, which follows the last remaining rhinos across South Africa. Eddie's mix is a testament to his recent run at festivals and clubs across NZ and Australia, and sees him going hard and heavy from the start.

Ronan is an artist in transit. Over the past three years, he has defined his impeccably melodic and transportive sound through releases for Vanity Press, D. Tiffany's Planet Euphorique, Budget Cuts and his own Eternal Ocean imprint. A transplant from the Pacific Northwest, Ronan is currently based in Mexico, where he is piecing together a series of EPs and a full-length debut to soundtrack the next chapter. He gifts us with a mix that crosses tempos and textures as it burrows into your heart.

UK artist R.O.S.H. has been busy over the past year, performing across Europe with Laurent Garnier and releasing music for Monkeytown, REKIDS, and Twin Turbo. He has also expanded on his records with his unique radio plays. On the show tonight, we're stoked to host a new work by R.O.S.H - "On Hold". This play follows the journey of two friends as they drive to the first houseparty after the lockdown ends. It's about uncertain times, uncertain minds, and uncertain lives. It also contains strong language and uncompromising music right from the start.

She is currently breaking through, with music forthcoming on Krill Music and Suburban Avenue compilations, and a full-length debut due later in the year. For the show, Anna gifts us a mix that strikes a balance between the freestyling rhythms of IDM and UK breakbeat, and the texture and heft of bass music. it's a propulsive and wild listen.
