Decomposed Radio Podcast

Welcome back to the lockdown with Decomposed Radio! For show 078 we're again solidifying that link between the UK climbing scene and quality techno, which I'm sure we all need plenty of at the moment during these wild times!

Featuring this time round is top British climber Jim Pope, who as well as being at the top of his game out on rock also has a hefty talent for selecting and mixing techno. He's put together a stand out blend of superb and really interesting cuts, with a couple of inspired additions that the hardcore grit trad climbing enthusiasts among you should definitely recognise! Whilst we're on that subject, if that's your bag then you should definitely check out Jim's new film "Big Balls and Highballs" which is a mega throwback to the all killer, no filler grit flicks of old, which basically translates as a load of westies getting fully amongst it on some spicy gritstone chop routes! All set to a waddage deep techno soundtrack! So go and give this legend of a young man a follow on social media, and lock yourselves down for 45 minutes of dreamy techno from Jim Pope, in the mix for Decomposed Radio show #088.........Get some!!

You're in lockdown with Decomposed Radio, and show 077. Hope you're all doing OK out there. During these crazy times, we're here to spread some good vibes and happiness through music, so with this in mind we're featuring another set from Decomposed Radio favourite "MALX" that's guaranteed to bring a smile to your face! Recorded in the Rave Cave at Code Nightclub in Sheffield back in December 2019, it's an absolute riot that oozes with tons of cheeky character, and vies for the record for how many guilty pleasure you can fit into one 45 minute mix, including classics from Madonna and The Pet Shop Boys, Rave Anthems from Altern-8, old skool european techno and even some dubious Happy Hardcore. Sounds wild right....? As always with Malx, somehow all this is done with a bit of class and style, and if this set has even a small percentage of the effect on Decomposed listeners that it had on Room 2 at Code then trust me..... you're gonna be going off in isolation!! Big up to Malx and Clare for their recent new addition to the fam Adam, hope you guys are starting him early on the techno scenes! So here we go, this is Malx in the lockdown mix for Decomposed Radio show 077. Hang on to your hats.........

You're locked back in with Decomposed Radio for another high quality techno fix.

We still have a couple of wild sets from the infamous "Works Party" back in December to share with you, but for show 076, we're focusing on some up and coming new talent as per one of the Decomposed Radio mission briefs.

Featuring on today's show is London born DJ/ Producer "JDC" who after making waves in London at venues such as XOYO, 93 feet east and Lightbox, is now based firmly in Sheffield, and heads up the always unique local underground electronic music experience "Magnetic North" alongside Decomposed Radio favourite from show 063 "Brutalist." Head over to Facebook ASAP and check out the full details on Magnetic North nights, including their techno heavy line up later this evening, and settle in for this stellar journey through solid deep techno cuts, from JDC.....

You're back with Decomposed Radio, and show number 075.

As promised, we're rewinding again to Code Nightclub in early December 2019 for the outrageously good Climbing Works party. We've got quite a few of the sets recorded which is ace, so this time round we have my own set from the night, which closed out phase I of the party, and kicked off around 4.30am I think. I really can't stress enough what a privelege it is to play for a crowd like we get at this event, and looking out to a packed dancefloor full of happy, super up for it faces. You just know you can let loose a bit and lead people on a bit of a journey which they'll be more than happy to follow you on. I really enjoyed listening to the set back again whilst putting the show together, and remembering how up for it and properly locked into the music I was, confident that I could dish out some feisty acid techno, as well as some deep, tough spacey stuff, separated by what's become a bit of a traditional old skool breakdown slap bang in the middle.

So let's waste no time and get stuck right in. This is GusN8r in the mix, recorded live at Code in Sheffield. Crank it right up!!

Bless me Papa Sven for I have sinned, it has been over a month since my last techno broadcast....... We've had a bit of a break here at Decomposed Radio so apologies for the radio silence, but I've been busy collecting and processing some great music for the next few shows, not to mention recovering from the incredible Works Party (and after parties) back in December. Speaking of which, the next few shows will feature sets from the 2 rooms at the Climbing Works Party; Solid techno from the main room, and some weird and wonderful stuff from the amazing "Rave Cave" which had me unexpectedly dancing like a lunatic on the night!

First up on the techno side of things, is this year's special guest "E-Kul" who kicked things into overdrive in the main room around 3am! He's been DJing, and promoting and running techno nights since the age of 16, when he managed to scrape together enough money to buy a pair of decks and a 2-channel mixer. Nights like "Havok" at Phoenix Club as well as the legendary "Orbit" were major influences, as well as artists like Ben Sims, Jeff Mills, Speedy J and UR. All this results in a high energy, tough and fast style which you'll hear in the mix today, but the great thing about this type of techno is that it still has a real tangible groove to it, which drives it along nicely! So strap yourselves in, and travel back in time to the 6th December at Code nightclub in Sheffield on 6th December last year... This is Decomposed Radio, in the mix, with E-Kul......
