Ahead of our club night at The Carpet Shop in London next Friday (18 August), we present a 100% vinyl mix by DJ Antepop for The MUSAR Show, a two hour journey through the deep sounds of house, dub techno, ambient and widescreen electronics. A masterclass on how to build a set from the founder of Inverted Audio.

If Jungle and Drum & Bass were his first love, Tom Durston aka Antepop went on to explore a much more diverse spectrum of electronic music, drawing in the far-reaching scope of Inverted Audio's coverage, allowing him to reinvent himself time after time. 

Antepop's holds a monthly residency on Netil Radio, and had previous gigs in Farr Festival, Above Below Festival, Berlin's Zur Klappe, HÖR, Renate, Barcelona's LAUT, London's Cafe OTO, Brilliant Corners to name a few...

Next up is a brace from a fan favourite. A cult hero. It’s the Bristol Berbatov, aka Winkles, putting it in the mixer as per his signature mercurial style. 

As longstanding admirers of the Greta Cottage duo, we strongly recommend dedicating some active listening hours to the countless radio shows Onlyz & Winkles have compiled over the years. There’s loads to get stuck into from this crew of Soundcloud journeymen. 

But maybe start here and follow it up with the imminent second part of the South West Double from @jimmywinkle. 

Check it: @greta-cottage-workshop

Before summer ended this year, Colorado-based DJ Steven Dermody was visiting family in Ohio. He woke one night to the light of the blue moon shining through trees, projecting pools of light on the grass below. Taking it in for a long moment, he took a photo from where he stood in his childhood bedroom. After opening up the first hour of this month’s show with some new favorites, I’m honored to host Steven on Bright Patterns for the second hour, where he reimagines and translates this moment with such personal intention.

This month we are treated to a sublime guest mix from Tokyo's Sbat @jagger-and-the-bat - deep diving into his record collection and and unearthing a set full of hypnotic 100bpm chuggers that the Guv'nor Mr. Weatherall would be proud of. Lovingly crafted - thank you Ben!

@nickcobby provides an hour of atmospheric and thoughtful ambient selections to start us off. Inspired by the 5am risers in Tokyo's dreamy, sprawling metropolis...

2nd Hour: Sbat

Recorded in my Tokyo apartment on a couple of 1200s, a lone XDJ and my cherished FF4000 mixer, the mix was slowly put together over the course of a couple of months as I went through almost all of my collection trying to find the right records (old and new). I've always been a big fan of DJs that can keep chugging from one 100bpm obscure number to the next, all the while making all everything sound like it belongs together (e.g. Andrew Weatherall in full backroom swing) and I really wanted to try and create my own version of that where you're taken through different styles, almost without realising (I hope), but whilst keeping the focus on a late night/early morning stomp in the backroom of some weird Tokyo after hours club you probably should have left ages ago...but you didn't...and you still have a few more hours in you.
