Part 1 > Slow/deep funky Chicago steppers anthem from Loggins & Messina winds it up. Midtempo synthetic pre-house from Raww and WBMX left-field classic from Yoko Ono. Bangkok Impact bangs up Unit 4, and brand new music from Jersey Devil Social Club with their monster dub of MAGNIFIQUE!

Part 2 > fast-paced electro races through the uk, germany, holland, and detroit, returning to chicago with downtempo idm before re-launching into the swirling grit of minimal chord-driven techno, including some new bits from spain’s hard techno specialists exium and ottawa’s talented texture-slinger tim hecker.
