Part 1 > Matt's unmixed, reflective set of high lonesome mood tracks
-- from Detroit downtempo to dub to abstract future jazz. New music
this week from Detroit's South South Million, and Junior Boys turn in
a plaintive dark sparkler from their new album.
Part 2 > We broadcast a classic mix from DJ Beppe Loda, a founding
italo disco DJ who played in Chicago for one night on a mini US tour.
A pioneer of DJ culture and resident at Italy's legendary Typhoon
club from 1980 to 1987, Loda has been searching for sounds off the
beaten path since his first gig in 1973. Playing to as many as 7,000
people a night, producing in excess of 200 mix tapes and pioneering
the "italo synth" sound with his MC1 project (just reissued on
Synthonic), he has just about done it all. His "Afro" style (also
called "Cosmic" or "Cosmic Afro") is as disorienting, funky and
inspiring now as it was then. Read an interview with this incredible
pioneer in electronic dance music here: http://tinyurl.com/ybo5qt
