Episode 28 brings you a local legend and the rising star of East London's techno scene - LOCKHART.


With playing experience to rival those in the game for decades, a residency in FOLD now under her belt, and a famously huge arsenal of explosive tracks, Lockhart is one of the most exciting artists in the UK right now. 

The born-and-raised East Londoner learnt to mix with footwork, breaks and UK techno, but it was experimental club music where Lockhart found her feet and its influence is still seen today in her intense-yet-playful sets. Experiences in Berlin and London exposed her to the darker sounds of dance music, which swayed her own style, and led to her focusing on the raw, heavy techno that she now plays with great success. Residencies on several parties across London led to her becoming a frequently spotted name on lineups, which soon brought her onto the radar of FOLD where she was welcomed into the family. 

Her self-assured aura quickly spreads through crowds, instilling a bond of trust that remains throughout her time in the booth. Never far away from her sets is her mischievous grin that accompanies her dark, trance-infused melodies, whilst she toys with the crowd. Lockhart doesn’t play to them - she plays with them. Knowing precisely what actions will get the desired reactions, the crowd are her puppets, and Lockhart is their mistress.

As always show your love and support to the artist involved.

Paris-via-Berlin based DJ and producer Arkan onboards the series this week with two hours fully embracing his deep, hypnosis-inducing mindset and definite knack for shaping streamlined floor narratives. Responsible for a handful surgical transmissions on the likes of Figure and SK_Eleven, in addition to running his own imprints Autonome and Drawner, the French artist keeps carving out a niche for himself at the junction of purely pragmatic, gravity-defying grooves and a certain orientation for experimental-leaning submersion, tailored to maintain techno's intrinsic relevancy and boundary-pushing character when so much material feels stuck in the emulative loop and not caring one bit to opt out the lame-ass continuum. One to keep the adrenaline rushing badman-style, and all brains in the room just as duly, unflinchingly stimulated.
