Expect 303s, amens, footwork, beautiful melodies, and some straight out stomping.
Added to this, we’ve new music from Burial, Goth-Trad, Benjamin Damage & Doc Daneeka, Bownr, Minor Science, Amit, Chevron, Team Toothpaste, Velapene Screen and more.

Artist Notes:
This record was and is about exploring the creative process, there’s a subtle truth in creating something that drives you to create more. Creative cannibalism can work if it’s for fueling purposes. Changing my comfort zone and moving to the desert gave birth almost a full year of solid writing, late nights, love, friends, lies, truths, exploration and forward thinking all realized in a hot, dry, bleak and lonely place. This record wouldn’t have happened if not for a few simple moments in perfect position. I was also graced with some amazing remixes from some of the most talented musicians I’ve come to know and respect. Thanks for the contributions of extraordinary sound from Jack Dangers, Kero, Duran Duran Duran and Sense.
Thank you to Natalie C, Keith Derek Jackson, Digital Nimbus, The Centrifuge, Bill Youngman, Charlie Nicolls, Dj Rubrene, Big Picture Media, Rob Paterson, Glen Ganguzza, Regina Spektor, Jack Dishel, Threv, Damian Conti, Jill, Ciro, Alexis and Igloo Mag. Thanks for supporting at every chance and making this record feel like a gift and a piece of art to me. Wassim, thanks man, I’m glad we got to talking and crossed paths here. Natalie you are a trooper for sitting through 90 percent of the writing in our high rise apartment in the sky (with windows that didn’t open). Hey Leyland, I finally have some time to tell you to shave.
This week we’re celebrating The Centrifuge’s 5th Birthday. We’ve come a long way since our first events in Nottingham, and Missaw and Ursa will be
in the studio chatting about about forthcoming releases and events, with some brand new unreleased material and a competition to win a whole stack of Centrifuge related stuff.
Added to which, we’ve new music from Scuba, Kill Moda, Radical G, Austin Cassell, Paradox, Ukkonen, Bownr and many more.
Scrubber Fox and DJ Stuff have put together a neat little video diary of our “Supernatant Sessions” at the Culture Yard in Elsinore, Denmark last month. Check it!
Time for the first proper guest mix of the year, and we’re starting as we mean to go on. D’Arcangelo should be well known to anyone with an interest in electronica. From their first EP on Replhex back in 1996 through to their most recent LP for 030303 in 2010, they’ve continued to astound critics and listeners alike, and have very kindly given us permission to air a live set recorded at Moog in Barcelona a couple of months ago.
In addition, we’ve new music from Hurtdeer, The Flashbulb, Mark Archer, Rave Wars, Memotone, Lodsb, Venetian Snares, Patscan, Kappah, and many, many more
The venerable beacon of forward-thinking electronic culture Igloo Magazine has today published a Q&A session with missaw, giving some insightful analysis of The Centrifuge’s origins, current activities and future directions.

Lodsb steps the processing up a notch on this release, a no holds barred excursion into digital deconstruction. Disturbing and beautiful in equal parts, this album is not for the casual listener, but is rather an intricate and overwhelming excursion into dense and challenging territory.
Tracklist:
1. Vesa
2. Lynx
3. Zinc
4. Orca
5. Neon
6. Cyan
7. Wasp

Add to that, new music from Gravious, dgoHn, Rotodrone, Dub Phizix and Skeptikal, Carl Taylor, and many more.

DSCI4 have been one of the most seminal DnB labels of the last 10 years, and will sadly be shutting up shop in the near future. However, they’ll be going out with a bang with their final release, the ‘Amen Warfare’ compilation, featuring amen-based tracks from a huge range of producers. To celebrate this, Tim Reaper has put together a 15m minimix of tracks from the album, and you get a chance to listen to them all on this week’s show.
In addition, we’ve new music from Debasser, Lifecycle, Mad EP & Shadowhuntaz, AAIMON, Valance Drakes and many more.
