LITTLE METAL BOXES – SHINJUKU SUGAR (Producer Royale: Round 1)

We've reached a landmark point in our podcast series with mix number 100.

For this extra special session we've managed to snare a major coup for the label and get a guest mix from the one and only @roelfuncken

He truly needs no introduction, but we'll try...

Roel is one of the most prolific and well sought after names in the electronic music sphere. Known for his ability to shape-shift through a whole universe of sound with ease. The emphasis lies in unique sound design, fractured textures and an uncanny ability for rhythmic structures that are both complex and compound. All these elements are seemingly effortlessly blended together in his production work and have led to his music being held in high esteem among peers and the electronic music community.

Releasing music over the years as a solo artist (under various aliases) and also as part of Legiac, Funckarma, Cenik, Quench and many more. The list is extensive to say the least.

Roel's mix for Bricolage is an immersive electronic labyrinth. A musical maze full of twists, turns, melodic delights and meticulous percussion.

50 tracks deep and clocking in at just over two hours long. This is a must listen episode for any fan of abstract electronics.
