More mellow electronica

In Hour 2 we welcome Chop and a mix of superb synth based musical gems. His last album 'Illuminate' came out on Now Again and is available here http://www.nowagainrecords.com/announcing-chop-illuminate/

Here is what he said about his mix;
"I've been listening to quite a lot of French, Japanese and electronic library music of late. This mix for me has been about discovering and re-discovering some fantastic artists/music from around the globe.  Wether its the eccentric French sounds of Marc Moulin's - Telex, mutations from YMO genius Haruomi Hosono or the influential proto-electronica of Manuel Gottsching I think there's something here for everyone from diggers to digesters of great music."

Solid Steel Radio Show 7/3/2014 Part 3 + 4 - Adam Elemental

In hour 2 we welcome one of Detroit's finest, Scott Grooves to Solid Steel. He was part of Kevin Saunderson's Inner City project, released his debut album for Soma and collaborated with many legendary figures, and here he delivers his latest concept 'Overdubs' featuring live percussion, Keyboards & mixed together by Scott along with Ian Finklestien (keyboards & engineer). This is what he had to say;
 "The name is fitting because it simply explains the function with just 2 words Over..Dub. Also I would like to add a few more elements to the Overdubapproach in addition to my djing and venture out later this year to a ear near U. I would like to further acknowledge the original composers for providing some true inspiration & musical direction"
