On 26 February, hundreds of Israeli settlers went on a violent late-night rampage in Huwara and other villages in the northern West Bank, leaving one local resident dead and 100 others injured and the town ablaze.

This compilation of music was put together in order to raise funds that can hopefully give some aid to the residents of Huwara, all of the proceeds Confused Machines make from digital sales will go directly to Physicians For Human Rights – Israel (PHRI) www.phr.org.il An NGO that works in the occupied Palestinian territory, promoting Palestinians' right to health and providing direct medical and humanitarian assistance.

The compilation hosts a roster of both local and international artists spanning a wide spectrum of leftfield electronic music. Acid, Drone, Noise, Downtempo, Techno, SoundCollage and more.
All of these tracks are new and have not been heard before, many of them have been created with Huwara and Palestine in mind.

Though we know our reach is limited, we see this as a part of a bigger political effort to help raise awareness in our artistic circles and set motion to positive forces in dark times.

PREMIERE: Kolette Hsu & Tamar Weiss - Can You Also Be Real [Confused Machines]

"Friend of the show Ian Hall will be putting together a guest mix for us to play. Ean alongside partner in crime Twonko and residents Smiddy, Galaxian, Jan and Peacock are responsible for one of Glasgow's newest and most respected club nights. Void.

Since Void's initial inception at the beginning of this year, throughout it's short period of time they have consistently strived to bring to Glasgow some of the finest, most progressive dj’s and producers from the all over the world from Detroit techno and electro (D.I.E's very own DJ Maaco) to squelching acid house (Perseus Traxx) to deep, soul searching minimalism from Poland (Echoplex) as well as providing a platform for some of the most proficient local acts to show off their skills from Thunder Disco Club to Konx-Om-Pax to members of the All Caps crew.

Void's sound palette broadens far beyond those horizons as they encompass all of the great facets of music from Hip-Hop to Italo-Disco to Coldwave to Funk and further afield. It doesn't cater toward a specific genre, it is a celebration of music.

Fascinatingly almost each show has had a theme attached to it. From February's fantastically titled "Transmission From The Outer Atmosphere" (the poster has what appears to be spacemen floating aimlessly in space as they approach the sun) to March's "Set The Controls For The Event Horizon" (the poster gives you the impression that you are peering through an hexagonal window of a star ship as it enters warp speed). Being a big fan of science-fiction, the development of ideas/concepts/theories, the enhancement of technology and looking toward the future, I feel as if Void are wanting to combine both energy and matter so that they can transport us to the end of the cosmos where nebulas and clusters of galaxies limitlessly expand beyond your line of sight, whilst our minds meld and melt into the seeping gateways of time and space."

PREMIERE: Parasols - 4 Facelift [DDC07]

When most were learning to shave, Dank Matter was honing his DJing skills. The Glaswegian cut his teeth at the knee of the mythical turntablist and DMC finalist: DJ Bunty. Having left crowds dripping and bellowing for more in his native Scotland, an intrepid seventeen year old sailed to The Netherlands to unleash his mixing mastery in Amsterdam. From these beginnings, Dank Matter has left basements buzzing and towns and cities thumping the length and breadth of the European continent.
 
An unorthodox DJ with an ear and style like no other, Dank Matter explores everything electronic. Acid. Disco. Ghetto. House. Italo. Electro. Techno. Wave. No sound is left unturned. This passion has manifested itself in many forms. The brains behind The Unit, an infamous afterhours bunker in the belly of Glasgow’s Southside, Dank Matter has also hosted parties with talent like Detroit in Effect, The Exaltics and The Hacker (to name but a few.)

If he isn’t swashbuckling on his technics or organising events, he’s with his baby: Schrödinger’s Box. Set up in 2015, the imprint has been a haven for homegrown talent as well as a beacon for international artists. As a taster, releases include Adrian Marth, Andreas Gehm, Anton Maiovvi, Cute Heels, Hard Ton, Mark Du Mosch with music from AC Meadows release having even featured in a Vogue promo video with Kim Kardashian.

A seriously skilled practitioner that guarantees unheard dynamite and machined fireworks, Dank Matter will leave throats raw, speakers sore and the crowd eager for more.
