Darone Sassounian is on a never-ending search for fresh sounds. Pulling records from his collection and from recent diggings, he aspires to share music that moves him each month here on dublab.

On today’s edition of the show, Darone invites Thomas Cox. 

Thomas Cox used to be a DJ of the music formerly known as house. Now he just plays records he likes in any style for his Next Wave show on Mutant Radio Tbilisi and produces music for his own DIY vinyl only label QED Recordings. 

This mix is perfect for relaxing on the beach at the South Pole of Enceladus while smoking a big one. An exquisite selection of music concrete, ambient, drone, avant-garde, experimental, synth, and soundtracks that will help the moss on your brain grow nice and dense. All vinyl recorded in one take. 

Thomas’s advice for you is this: buy more records and give fewer f**ks.
