Glitterbox Radio Show 453: New Years Eve Special

Pre-order: https://madver.se/presave/banglabox

Pablo Dutta drops his latest production, ‘Bangla Box’ - a global representation of Bengal’s soundsystem or ‘box’ culture on both sides of the border, with a vocal sampled from a dialogue of a ‘Jatra’, or Bengali folk theatre, which is an integral part of Bengal’s rural ecosystem. 

"Born in Kolkata, Bengali has been my mother tongue, and I feel there is not enough electronic music coming out in regional languages from this side of the country, and I want to represent that and bring this new sound to clubs," he explains.

Premiere: Pablo Dutta 'Bangla Box'

@hedplacesynthetics are advising stockists that the planned public release of product 'SYN002' (prototype name ‘Snowbound’) has been recalled and re-engineered to minimise unforeseen side effects.

'Snowbound’ was compounded by in-house chemist @hedchef, with subjects reporting sonic emissions variously described as “deep and pacey tech house thump”, “dissonant bleeps shifting over a thick, persistent bassline” and “an irresistible club weapon”.

Premiere: Hedchef 'Snowbound'
