600+ of the best Indie Dance, Cosmic Disco, Italo Trance, Acid Chug & Playa Tech mixes & premieres you can find out there with 👨‍🚀heavy Italo basslines, futuristic vibes, spaced-out disco fun & acid oversoul grooves.

"Ahead of The Wave" since 2013, curated by Markus Schneider of www.soundcloud.com/therobotscientists. 

You are listening to atmospheric mixes and new tracks of some of the most talented DJs and producers and the finest music connoisseurs and record diggers out there. 
Some are rising stars, some are old legends, others are complete newcomers or even shy and deep bedroom DJs. No matter how well known they already are, they all deliver exceptional tracks and sets for you that feature the best these underground and hard to pin down genres have to offer: what you get is a mind-expanding fusion of Italo-, Space-, Magico- & Dark Disco, Indie Dance, Italo Body Music / Italo Trance, Dirty Bouncy Midtempo, Cold Wave, EBM, Psychedelic- & Chugging Acid-House. 

The series is featuring mixes by artists like Curses, Shubostar, Cabaret Nocturne, Local Suicide, Hardway Bros and +400 more. 

It is about a hypnotic journey through space, dimensions and time, a uplifting voyage through astral, etheric and magical frequencies - and above all: it is a wild, colorful, energetic, futuristic, artistic ride into human emotions, ranging from fear, sadness & rage to enthusiasm, joy & euphoria. It's all in there, so mix vibes and speeds will vary.

The series is inspired by Daniele Baldelli's Cosmic mixes, 1970s Psychedelic-, Prog- & Kraut-Rock, New Wave & Space Disco, 1980s Italo Disco, Synth-Pop, Cold Wave, Minimal Wave, Post-Punk, Early House & New Beat, 1990s Balearica, Goa & Psy Trance, Leftfield, Acid & Tribal House and 2000s Electroclash & NuDisco. 

So...if you like what you just read, make sure you follow us - and share the series with your friends! 

"Equal parts gothic, cosmic, spectral, dark and thrilling, this is the sound of Andrew Weatherall et al at its most widescreen and space faring." fits.

Andy Bgpz started DJing in Manchester in 1990, including residencies at: "Happiness", warming up for Sasha at the inaugural night (no pressure there, then); a much-loved token monthly "dance night" at Salford Uni that grew from 40 to 600 within months with the help of the likes of Hacienda FM, Luv Dup, and Rob Bright; and at the first incarnation of Manumission playing chilled wonky stuff alongside a certain Mr Scruff in a pleasantly surreal dive in Manchester's Gay Village.

As part of the Raya, Triology and SoxaN crews, he spent a decade and a half or so putting on audio-visual rave-ups at the likes of the ICA, Big Chill and the Rhythm Factory (and some frankly questionable afterparties). 

Other activities include writing the clubs and dance music section for The Big Issue North West in the mid-90s (in spite of sub-editors that couldn't tell the difference between punk and funk - which made for some interesting listings some weeks), and random stuff for other nice people since then. Radio stuff's included In The City FM and Sunset 102 (Manchester), and several Big Chill FMs (from the Enchanted Garden to Eastnor). 

Now resident in Canada, he continues to enthuse about music, randomly trainspot and talk shite on air via the magic of the interwebz on  www.purple-radio.co.uk (and plays nice tunes, too). He's still been known to DJ/VJ out for ale and pork scratchings.

Rolling synth basslines, catchy melodies, hypnotic vocals, deep funkyness, silly fun, stylish diversity & heartbreaking romance. Cosmic Disco, Italo Disco, Indie Dance & Transcendance House. TRS are Markus Schneider and Stefan Maurer, also curators of the www.soundcloud.com/somethingspaecial DJ mix series & two of three behind www.soundcloud.com/emerald-and-doreen-rec. Selected gigs played in Berlin, Barcelona, Paris, Beirut, Tuscany, Zurich, Rennes a.m.m.
