Through our shows, interviews and mixes, we’ve tried to present electronics with a difference, electronics that make a difference. To the snowy peaks of Canada with Solvent, to the dusty plains of Almería with Mynationshit, our objective is giving a greater audience to what is already great. This month is no exception.

Nuron :: DAT Tapes Vol 02 (De:tuned)
Interestingly, DAT Tapes Vol 02 casts light on a style that Jusat is not known for. There are moments of his trademark techno, but it is a more floor centric house that is at the heart of the record. The depth of previous productions is less evident, the explorations on offer being more rhythmic than melodic.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #44
Our celebration, a devil-may-care romp in the aural delights of the machines, opens with some recent beauts from Gated before dipping into acid, breakbeat, electro and techno with records from Amenthia, Betonkust, Gated Recordings, Klasse Wrecks and heaps more.

2024 is well underway. Nevertheless, We Forfeit returns to one of their many, many traditions; their favorite records of 2023!
Susumu Yokota :: Acid Mt. Fuji (Remastered 30th Anniversary Edition) (Sublime)
This 1994 album transcended expectations and opinions when it was first released, thirty years on it is still doing so. A fitting homage being paid to an artist who was utterly unique in his approach, a beautiful reissue of a milestone of electronic music.
V/A :: Futur (Funkscapes)
Founded on mixtapes, the label has grown into a full vinyl outfit with a catalogue of releases that have focused on disco, funk and 80s electronics. Venturing into the modern age, Futur is a compilation of four artists across six tracks.
David Morley :: Fashion (De:tuned)
Organ groans call forth earthen percussion, dripping clanks and clods of drum soon shed of their organic trappings as industrial tones begin to dominate.
