"Focusing on razor-edged techno pop, bleepy drum machine minimalism and homemade synth experiments, ['80s UCC Vol.2'] takes a global view of the 80s tape underground...saturated in a vibrant layer of multicoloured DIY ambition. But this compilation is more than a nostalgia-fuelled expansion of the archive. It bends chronologies, suggesting that A didn’t necessarily follow B in the way it’s usually assumed. A snap-shot full of surprise precursors, heroic outliers and yet to be realised possibilities." - The Quietus

"Brilliant" - Tom Ravenscroft (BBC RADIO 6 MUSIC)

"From the lurching misanthropic menace of Years On Earth to the static drum machine robo funk of M Rendell, from the dark proto-House, monochrome industrial work out of Pornosect to the primitive sample-punk of Ob Ovo, these mutants all made music brimming with life and vim under the layer of culture and reality that was the mainstream in the 80s. Think Cabaret Voltairish experimentation, sub-Fad Gadget desperation, burbling radiophonic synth tones smothering grooves, these coldest of waves and most clanging of industrial tones represent a tip or a trough of an iceberg or valley of endless invention from the decade that refuses to die." - Monorail

"Listeners with insight into the subterranean 1980s might gather they have a handle on what 80s Underground Cassette Culture Volume 2 has in store, but a mere spin of the sides reveals the contents to be more expansive than one might expect...and even better, all the cuts have been fully licensed from the artists, making this a stand-up undertaking all-around. " - The Vinyl District

Reliquarium with Chaotic Discord — 2022

@minou-oram

Excited to share a mix from @lyl_radio host Minou Oram. 

Minou Oram is Berlin based, and was a founder of the now defunct @femdex, an initiative that dealt with the topic of equality in club culture and promotes female talents. These days Minou is part of the Bowl of Cereal collective.

Enjoy the mix and catch her on Saturday @Sameheads Berlin.

Being a regular guest at Hespermen's Private Persons, you can already take a wild guess in which direction this man can take the dancefloor; a twisted bass-heavy hybrid with a punkish attitude, constant rhythmical juggling with a pinch of intimate melodies in-between is what he brings each and every time. 
His releases follow this exact philosophy issued by labels such as Y.E.S., KUMP and of course Private Persons and having shared the stage with champions like Formally Unknown, Low Tape, iconic duo Locked Club & plenty of others.

Chatting with Venderstrooik while the scenery outside looks really picturesque. Netherlands based duo draws the map of the scene and their own creative zone. Spicy stories, music links and list of gear down below. Venderstrooikish irony. What can be better.
