Only Now is the vision of Kush Arora, based in Berkeley, CA. His sound is an unremitting emission of razor cut rhythms, primitive channeling, and ritualistic electronics. There is wild abandon in his approach; from seething Indian rhythms to cold fronts of ambience that highlight Arora’s ability to juggle disparate sonics. Active in the Bay Area since the late 90’s, Kush produces in scenes ranging from noise to dancehall as with his recent “Indian Unclassical” series. Arora's work has been featured on the BBC and in The Wire, The Quietus, The Guardian, FACT, Resident Advisor, and Bandcamp Daily. Over the past year Kush has performed with DUMA, Andy Stott, and Kokoko!

RND 081 - Only Now

a slow, deep, musical tribute to my experience of playing through final fantasy 14 online <3

i started playing final fantasy 14 online (ff14) around the time i was diagnosed with a life-changing illness. i was living at my mom’s in a city i’m not very fond of with a new, life-changing, potentially life-destroying diagnosis. this game brought me such desperately needed escape. playing through its story, i felt a part of something special and inspiring. i truly think ff14 has some of the best fantasy storytelling out there, including in competition with books, tv, movies, and so on. it’s also so beautiful visually and sonically and has so many important, uplifting messages. 

this mix is a tribute to ff14 soundtracks and other music i was listening to a lot during my depressing experience of 2021-2022, where i couldn’t do much other than distract myself from what i was going through. it’s the second (third?) mix in a series of ambient mixes i’ve made, with the prior being a tribute to the video game world of guild wars. cynn’s lullaby as i go by cynn both on guild wars and ff14. 

i really can’t recommend ff14 enough, although maybe play it when you are in a less busy time as there are hundreds of hours of story to play through and it is SO GOOD it can be hard to log off. it’s a massively multiplayer online role playing game, but you can basically play through it on your own and at your own pace. if you’ve played ff14 or end up playing it, please get in contact so we can screech about how iconic, and for me - life changing, its story is.

cynn's lullaby 2 (ff14 tribute)

Debut hybrid mix with tasty breaks (hence the very original title) of different styles. In this hour I wanted to put together some of the tracks that inspired me the most lately. Bass, electro, ghettotech, footwork and jungle with a little latin twist.

##### New Season Alert #ParanoiseRadio #SubbedOut ##### 

#subbb102023 archive up and away>> 

Kicking off on a sensitive note and a fragile state of things everywhere around us so a live vinyl mix of mid to late 90s deep healing energy vibes from the drum & bass / jungle world was the only thing I wanted to mix & blend this last week.

Sprinkle that with some major digging from the Vaults for tunes that sounded/sound ever so fresh in/out of the clubs (TIP: predominantly b-sides & unknown gems) and hey presto, I could do another 2 hrs easily>>>> 

Thanks to the listeners and we're on with the #SubbedOut sessions 2023/2024 style

Tarantula

Uriel - Tarantula [Pneumatic]

Allergy Season alum Love Letters and label boss Physical Therapy team up to tackle new territory on Hunk. In two distinct versions, the duo explore prismatic soundscapes and gut-rattling bass.

Echoing across 13 minutes, the ‘Ouroboros Mix’ is an epic of dark dub in half-time. Layers of heady sound build and decay through the song’s several movements, while ballooning delays ricochet across syrup-thick low end. It’s a winding trip, weaving tension and release.

The pair buff things up for the ‘Herculean Mix,’ a stripped back techno interpretation, which builds Hunk’s heavy bass lines from squelch to squall. The mind-bending sound palette is glued to a breakneck 606 drum machine for a peak time potency.
