Glasgow's nefarious, labyrinthine, electronic underworld is throwing up some real gems of late. From powerhouses such as Numbers and LuckyMe to newcomers such as All Caps, the Caledonian city seems to be awash with new talent, with people taking club culture in fresh, distorted, and vivid directions. @dixonavenuebasementjams is one of the city's more curious imprints / party-throwers, a looseknit collective of DJs and producers who seize upon the tattered, less explored regions of house and techno.

Mastermix 2017

Fourth episode of the NoVOID podcast series - a podcast on ruins and vacant lands in cities. In this episode, Professor Matthew Gandy talks about the multiple ecologies of wastelands which he came across in his research project Rethinking Urban Nature.

Each episode of this podcast combines one interview and one field recording in ruins or vacant lands. With this, we hope to create audible bridges between research and territory. We will interview experts from various fields, including artists, biogeographers, economic and cultural geographers, landscape and urbanist architects, and biologists.

Financed by national funds of the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P. of the Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Ensino Superior (PTDC/ATPEUR/1180/2014 / SFRH/BD/108907/2015).
