This has been a beautiful interview and history lesson @openlabradio :-)

Escape Pods - a musical journey through the cosmos. 
Hosted by Ben Randm & Ralph Lawson 

Each episode a guest is offered an Escape Pod to leave our world behind. We ask them what music they’d put on their headphones as they; Blast Off, Experience Zero G, Flyby The Planets and make Final Contact before venturing on to discover Alien Worlds. We ask them to select a piece of music for our Escape Pods Platinum Disc and an experience of Planet Earth to take with them on their journey. 

Turn on, tune in, space out...

Escape Pods – Daniele Baldelli
Daniele Baldelli is best known as the creator of the Cosmic sound named after his DJ residency at the legendary Cosmic Club in Italy in the late 1970s. Baldelli’s story as a DJ began even earlier in the late 1960s at the Tana, Tabu and Baia Degli Angeli  clubs where he pioneered many DJing techniques independently of the more widely recognised New York disco scene. Perhaps the most unique technique he employed in his sets was to change the speed of records, mostly from 45rpm to 33rpm, to find songs that sounded entirely different for the Cosmic dance floor.
Daniele continues to be a prolific producer as he enters his sixth decade in music with a run of records under the Cosmic Temple name and continues to DJ in clubs and festivals worldwide…

Helena has a unique sound as a music producer with three highly acclaimed albums under her belt recorded for Ninja Tunes, Dark Entries and Werk Discs - preferring a 'less is more' approach to sound design using analogue machines.

Helena is well known for keeping away from social media, smart-phones and all the trappings of 21st century life yet still manages to survive perfectly well…Looks like we’re going to have fit in a crate of records or two in the back as The Hauff joins us for Escape Pods…
