Time Spike Jamz

Alex Banks is a Brighton-based DJ, producer, and multi-instrumentalist known for his intricate yet dancefloor-driven sound, inspired by the dense electronica of artists like Jon Hopkins and Max Cooper. Blending jungle, broken beat, and dubstep rhythms with techno textures and IDM melodies, his music is defined by masterful sound design—an expertise that has made him an in-demand engineer, composing for film, TV, and global brands like Nike and Honda. His latest Impermanence EP, released on Last Night on Earth, showcases his signature style, where tense drums and euphoric melodies merge into thoughtful electronic compositions. 

On this Balance Selections, the English producer flexes with an exquisite two hours of scalpel-sharp dance music. Featuring tracks from Max Cooper, Floating Points, Tinlicker and more, this is a journey worth taking.

Departures 08/06/25

Another special show this week, featuring a more relaxed set of the music I played with @elisa for the special one year anniversary of a supper club called 926.1 (the distance from our location in London, to the Italian border).

Run by two good friends and incredible chefs, Giorgio Del Buono and Simone Sicchia, the idea behind the events are to create days and nights of incredible food, inspiring music and wonderful company, with all profits donated to Comitato Maria Letizia Vergia for the research towards the cure of childhood Leukaemia

Expect a unique set of music reflecting the point at which London and Italian culture overlaps, and inspired by the food, environment and people of the event itself. Blending vintage jazz, neo-classical, ambient electronica, house and deep techno, and featuring music from artists such as Joram Feitsma, Donny Hathaway, Amanda Whiting and Nu Guinea, through to Purling, Synkro, Daw Swindle and Alex Kassian.
