As Hallie Flanagan once said “the power of radio is not that it speaks to millions, but that it speaks intimately and privately to each one of those millions.” And we love this medium as it gives us the power to travel without borders and host wonderful souls without limitations. 

“Beshknow Radio takeover on Soho Radio” is a one-week curated lineup of 13 programs freshly cooked by Beshknow residents and invited guests for Soho radio. 

The first day of the program starts with a collection of Iranian songs from early 70s to the Late 90s as a warmup and continues with eclectic live performances of local bands from Tehran. 

The following days of the week are dedicated to listeners with a diverse appetite in electronic music, experimental sounds and dance tunes.

The situation we’re witnessing in Gaza is heartbreaking. While the world watches, over 30,000 innocent Palestinian people, many of whom were children, have been killed and over 70,000 more injured in attacks since October 7th. Homes, neighbourhoods and cities have been destroyed, and most of the population has been displaced and left without food, clean drinking water, electricity and fuel. 

The UK government has continued to allow Israel’s bombardment in the region and chosen not to back consistent calls for a ceasefire, despite the overwhelming majority of the UK public being in favour.

In an effort to raise money for Palestinian aid charities, I’ve reached out to lots of talented artists who have kindly contributed their music to this incredibly important cause. 

Sonically it traverses chugging electronics, proto electro, Italo dance, UK techno and leftfield bass from artists like JD Twitch, Ambien Baby, Lisene, GoodMostlyBad and Azo, all of whom are joining our call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

FREE PALESTINE.

All proceeds from the compilation will be split 50/50 between two charities who are working hard to provide support and humanitarian aid in Gaza: Medical Aid Palestine and War Child UK.

Eternal thanks to Jeena Ra for creating this beautiful artwork and to Justin Drake for lending his mastering skills to the project.

PREMIERE: Reda Saiarh - New Beat Against The Machine [Human Endeavour]

The second instalment of a quick trilogy presented by our young talent Niev arrives in the form of a "James Bondorzillo" time travel machine, or more accurately, a tunnel connecting Trax Records' warehouse to a dingy, sweaty Italian club.

We predicted that times of uncertainty would be a test of strength and the start of something new for each of us. At the beginning of 2020 few could imagine that just three months later our life would drastically change. All faced with the need to maintain a delicate balance between gaining the necessary flexibility and further adherence to core values. Quality over quantity — following this algorithm all the way, Blank presents it's third podcast.

Its author Evgeni Klepalov, a key member of our team, used that time to reimagine his own story. After 3 years of hiatus he returned to the studio and also changed his moniker. Module Werk's story is over, meet https://soundcloud.com/voidofgene
