Broadcast 33 starts with a short feature of the superb LP release by Marie Davidson Adieux au Dancefloor. Out on Cititrax, Adieux au Dancefloor is her most seminal work, exploring her POV of dance music and culture through her beautifully sculpted productions.

Afterwards is an in-depth discussion about the past and present of Industrial music with Nine (Nihar Bhatt). As one fourth of the Surface Tension collective and through his own productions, Bhatt has been heavily involved in the local scene for several years and as an insightful perspective on how industrial music has impacted techno music today. He finishes the show with a lush mix of current artists who use the industrial ethos in their own music. Enjoy.

Broadcast 32 of Infinite Beat kicks off with a short feature on the new Nyctophobia EP by mysterious producer A001. Out on MORD, this release is one monstrous track after another, building on the tension and terror one feels when overpowered by darkness. There is no information on this release except for the following note:

~black car’s running
in the rusty light
of a bohemian sunset
while the desert cursed
dust over the words
of a scared man~

Afterwards is a live DJ set from the much respected Nick Ottrando. The man behind the reigns at Parameter, a night specializing in bringing the sound of the UK underground to the Bay Area, Ottrando has been able to not only showcase some of the best talent in the bass and techno scene, but also strengthen bonds among our own community right here in the Bay Area. Featuring several producers who have been featured at Parameter as well as several unreleased tracks, Ottrando is a master curator of sound, not only as a promotor, but also as a DJ. Enjoy.

Broadcast 31 kicks off with a short feature on the new release on Blackest Ever Black. The project behind this beautiful record is Tomorrow The Rain Will Fall Upwards? Not a band per se, but a collective effort from the efforts of Conrad Standish, Jonnine Standish (HTRK), Genevieve McGuckin (These Immortal Souls) and Lucas Santanna. There is no indication on who worked on what track. It is not even what I would call a compilation. It plays like a soundtrack from a Takashi Ito film. A very disjointed, non-narrative film that jumps from clarity to a haunting, unfocused ghost. A beautiful release that is highly recommended. One of my personal favorites this year.

After, live in the studio is Nackt, a talented DJ and producer based in the East Bay. He is a part of the Outpost crew, one half of Rare Form party, has a release on 100% Silk, Run the Length of Your Wildness, Gays Hate Techno and has played many long standing institutions of techno and house all over the Bay. He drops an all vinyl live DJ set celebrating much of his love of 70s/80s electronics and those inspired by them. Enjoy.

Broadcast 30 is up for your podcasting pleasure. Featuring the intelligent, funny and undeniably talented techno producer The Creatrix. She is known as one half of the experimental duo Felidae with Beast Nest and has collaborated with many other Bay Area based producers like Nine. Now, the Creatrix has ventured out of her collaborations to explore her own solo work, showcasing her emotive, sensual and often emotionally soothing techno.

We start with an exclusive mix from the producer, featuring tracks from Robert Hood, Dream 2 Science, No-Tech label head Ciarra Black and the Bay Area's own Russell E.L. Butler.

After is a segment we like to call "girl gab," where we navigate through topics like Boiler Room trolls, the problems of marketing women in dance music and how she thinks we can create safer spaces for women, POC, LGBT and those that are non-binary.

We end with a beautiful live set from the Bay Area producer. Enjoy.

Broadcast 29 has now been podcasted for your listening pleasure. A short preview of the new release by Decollage called Registration. Registration is on the new California-based label Idol Patterns. You can download it and order a CD copy on Idol Patterns’ bandcamp. I highly recommend grabbing a copy.

Afterwards is a solo DJ set inspired by the bold writing of Virginie Depentes and her most popular, controversial work, Baise Moi. Not the best film, but an important one in radical feminist cinema, Baise Moi was a film adaptation of her book of the same title. Directed by her, an ex-prostitute, and porn actress/author Coralie Trinh Thi, it is known as a "rape and revenge" film, though it is a far more radical depiction of the genre (which is normally directed by men). The film is an ultra violent, real sex depiction of female aggression as a reaction to the marginalization, sexual abuse and violence at the hands of hyper masculinity.

Broadcast 28 is up for your listening pleasure. Starting with a short feature on Opal Tapes' new release by Oakland's own Russell E.L. Butler. Titled "The First Step," Butler has taken a leap from the literary, thoughtful introspection of "God is Change" and walks fearless strides with his new EP. Highly recommended.

After is a brief interview with Dimentia. He is a great hardware-based producer in the Bay Area and has been a huge part of the esoteric Katabatik collective, an institution that has been bringing the most evocative in experimental electronic music. Dimentia and the Katabatik collective have been curating and cultivating the Bay Area's thriving underground for well over fifteen years and it is an honor to be able to share their story in the studio. After is a DJ set featuring his love of local artists (Cube, Identity Theft), his own productions and artists that have been an inspiration for him and Katabatik. Enjoy.

Broadcast 26 is now up for your podcasting pleasure. Starting with snippets of the new Lavender cassette release on Jacktone Records, Horizons Beneath the Surface. As an extension of his last release, Mystique Youth, "Horizons" dives deep into the witching hour, after a wild night of ecstasy and just before sunrise cleanses you of the night's debauchery. It is a stunning release that is highly recommended.

This broadcast is a feature on Bryan Gibbs, who is a producer, sound engineer and DJ extraordinaire. His work has touched so many people both locally and beyond. From SF institution The Com#, Inhalt (Dark Entries) and playing for years as a respected DJ, Gibbs is moving towards the future with his own solo productions and collaborations with another gifted producer Amber Cox.

This exclusive mix from Gibbs highlights not only his complex meticulousness in production but also his love of merging the dance floor vibe with a darker, almost mystic quality. Enjoy.

For the love of experimental film and music, Broadcast 24 features the wildly talented SF based filmmaker and artist, Paul Clipson. With collaborations with sound artists like Jefre Cantu-Ledesma and Liz Harris (Grouper), Clipson has been projecting his films with the sonic explorations of said musicians to stimulate and inspire audiences all over the world.

Clipson played his first live DJ set with a deep collection of cult film soundtracks. From cherished films like Antonioni's Zabriskie Point, La Jetee, recent cult favorites like Under the Skin, and less appreciated box office bombs like DePalma's Femme Fatale, Clipson shapes his mix to unveil his deep obsession with the relationship between the audio and visual experience. This was the most inspiring show to do thus far! It will motivate you to dive back into all of these films over and over again! Enjoy!

Broadcast 23 features a very beautiful, emotive mix by a talented ambient/house producer. You may know him by his moniker Magic Touch and the bad ass back beat for San Francisco's Mi Ami. He is my old friend, producer extraordinaire, Damon Eliza Palermo. We got to reminisce, have a laugh about old times in San Francisco and how he as a young man, growing up in Michigan, was inspired by his brother to start experimenting in dance music.

Afterwards is a rich, deeply emotional mix of some of his favorite ambient tracks and a few playful ones to keep the spirit up.

I am glad to be able to share this with you and to call this talented person a good friend. Enjoy.

Broadcast 21 featured a live dj set inspired by the beautiful, 2009 film Amer. A post modern homage to giallo films, Amer was directed by French/Belgian couple Helene Cattet and Bruno Forzani.

Amer is about the sexual awakening and development of a young girl and features the classic imagery of giallo films. Beautifully shot, often with a similar technicolor filter as classic films like Suspiria and Inferno, Amer floats through three events in a young woman's life. Is it reality? Is it a fever dream? The answers are found in your imagination.

If you love giallo films, Dario Argento, Mario Bava, the music of Bruno Nicolai and Stelvio Cipriani, if you love films about the sexual awakening of a young girl, you will absolutely enjoy this film.

Broadcast 15 is now up for your listening pleasure. The show starts with a quick feature on the latest Jacktone Records release from San Francisco-based composer Lavender. His release is called Mystic Youth.

This broadcast features one of the most celebrated female djs in San Francisco, Mozhgan, she has an amazing party with Jason Greer and Solar, We Are Monsters, which continues to be one of the best parties in the city. She has been featured in Electronic Beats as one of "11 DJs Reviving San Francisco's Scene," crushes behind any deck and continues to be one of San Francisco's brightest selectors (in my humble opinion). Enjoy.
