  West Virginia in the good old U.S of A isn’t exactly what you’d call electronic musical heartland. But Aaron Slater is trying to change all that. Indeed, music runs in his blood. He’s always been a fan with unusually eclectic taste, for keeping things different is his very modus operandi.   “It has really weaved around a little bit for me – music that is,” he says in retrospect from...

At the same time I was heavily influenced by Switch and the dubsided sound so it made sense. Acid House was so niche and the dare I say "fidget" sound was emerging but that was oh so 2008!

Luke is with me, let me just put you on speaker.”... Read More

No, he's not a mentalist, but he's been cited as a "guiding light of the UK house scene" by Resident Advisor. Simon Baker has been a constant force of touring and production for the past decade. His time spent in the trenches, building up a rep has come to a head with the release of debut album, Traces. When we catch up with the laidback yet determined DJ-producer, he's busy in the studio...

Remixer Scott Solter has made a fierce industrial monster of Mirror Girl by "Danish spectral noise rock quartet" Salli Lunn, another curious and arresting release from Perth's Hidden Shaol Recordings, one of the most adventurous labels in the country.
