Mega psychedelic episode coming in for number 70 from old friend and Music From Memory boss Tako Reyenga @tako-reyenga @music-from-memory. Once described as the 'wise yoda' of the Amsterdam scene and a massive inspiration to many with his golden ears and endless curiosity. Whether via his work opening cultural institution and our favourite Dutch pub Red Light Records, releasing music with Jonny Nash as Sombrero Galaxy or compiling lost 80s and 90s gems for MFM and Into The Light, anything Tako touches comes with a big stamp of approval. Enjoy this mix of French kosmiche from Vague Imaginaires, wide-eyed, extra-terrestrial US wave from Cerebral Hemorrhage, Dutch ambient from Michel Banabila and loads more we couldn't recognise.

Forecast 070: Tako

From the Lock Tavern via The Gun to spoons…

Family Silver are Mr Nick ‘The Gun’ Stephens and Casper ‘Volte Face’ Clark.

Nick was the publican at The Gun, a much-loved Hackney institution that recently closed its doors – more on that here for those who have been living under a rock. Nick’s excellent Netil radio show can also be found here.


 
Casper, is based in Clapton and was the music programmer for Camden institution The Lock Tavern where our paths originally crossed – most of the time being kicked out whilst DJing. Casper’s shared stages with Justice, Jeff Mills, Helena Hauff, Daniel Avery and many more and is also known for his long-running BleeD events via which he collaborated with labels like Blackest Ever Black, PAN and Downwards. Both share a love for “v lo-fi early eighties sound, kosmische, post-punk and scuzzy electronics,” with Nick’s influences ranging from 80s TV themes and Giorgio Moroder to The KLF, while Casper was shaped in his youth by electronic acts like Leftfield, Underworld, and William Orbit with DJ Hell’s International Deejay Gigolo Records becoming a huge influence later on.

Their sound sits between post-punk and the electronic… so with that in mind let’s give it a listen shall we?

Handily via the wonder of a recording  from this year’s Field Maneuvers where they opened The Gun’s stage.
