Hidden Forest Podcast Episode 4 — mixed by Slice N Dice.
Released on September 3, 2012, this episode brings a different flavour to the series.
Rather than the raw Melbourne minimal sound that was dominant at the time, this mix taps into a gritty electro house vibe — heavy grooves, distorted synths, and late-2000s energy with a unique edge.

One of the more unorthodox sets in the Hidden Forest archive — still part of the era, but standing in its own lane.
Respect to Slice N Dice (https://on.soundcloud.com/nRrj3JUtqYZnpUDV8) for keeping things raw, different, and club-ready.

Hidden Forest Podcast Episode 6 — mixed by Adam Bartas, one half of the iconic Melbourne duo Orkestrated.
Released on September 9, 2012, this set brings things back to the core essence of the Melbourne underground — raw, groovy, hypnotic, and unapologetically minimal.

This is the sound that fuelled dance floors in dark clubs across the city — a rolling, gritty groove that defined a generation.
Adam Bartas was already a respected OG in the scene at this point — his work with Orkestrated helped shape the very foundation of Melbourne’s underground sound.

Proper old-school Melbourne energy, no fluff, no compromise.
