North London selector and producer Lou Redley, or @mrredley, selects 5 tracks to send into space to teach aliens about life on earth.

Lou is a lover of the double bass, fine wine and spending good times with friends - all of which will be of interest to extraterrestrial life. 

Aside from these, he's an excellent DJ, having cut his teeth on internet radio back in 2015 where he focused on electronic music with a heavy groove. Black Wine Club is the name of his current @rinsefm show and clubnight series, and another project where he offers followers advice on pairing fine wine with electronic music, helping to change the mindset of the wine industry and society.

Lou's cosmic selections touch on his days at Drum & Bass raves, seeing reggae and dub legends Sly & Robbie at the Barbican with his parents, and being recommended exquisite jazz in Manchester record shops.

Harry Whitaker - Black Renaissance (1977)
Black Jazz Consortium - Free Your Mind (2012)
Sly & Robbie - Destination Unknown (1985)
