You should always expect the unexpected with Berlin-based producer and DJ Benedikt Frey. His sets are tension-inducing while his productions tend to have this cinematic feel to them, something he's honed even more in his most recent project Keys, alongside Chris Cox. 

These hypnotic creations have seen him make homes on countless labels since his first release almost a decade ago. From Live At Robert Johnson to Bahnsteig 23, Serious Trouble and his own Love Pain Sunshine & Rain imprint, he's wielded his own unique, intriguing sound. Soon he wil make his return to ESP Institute, the label he released his debut album 'Artificial' with, as well as Talabot's Hivern Discs, which follows his Out Of Here EP for the imprint in 2016. 

He's in charge of today's Ransom Note mix and fuses together sludgy electronics, 90s acid, trance and breakbeat to keep you locked in and locked on all the way to the end...

Alongside this we offer musings on film, books, life, and art, generating some context and controversy as an antidote to the reheated PR that clogs up the internet. Our office is fuelled by Tunnock’s Bars, cat memes, hangovers and a ridiculous, never ending love for our culture.
