Berlin-based vocalist and producer J. Wiltshire crafts his own enchanting brand of ambient, electro and breakbeat techno which has come through on releases for Hypercolour, Musar Recordings and Black Orpheus.

He's also one of the minds behind Super Hexagon, the Leeds-based label that was spawned out of the club night of the same name. Now their focus is firmly on releases, and since its inception four years ago it's been a platform for both J. Wiltshire and fellow co-founder Alma Construct to share their own music, as well as instalments from the likes of Aldrich, FFT and Lårry.

Following a return to Musar earlier this year with his Resa EP, he steps up for this week's Ransom Note mix, bringing a taste of the influences that steer his own production...

Munich's Kareem El Morr has carved out a reputation for his refined blend of electro, IDM and trance. Since his debut on local label RFR in 2018, El Morr has made a several other contributions to VAs including his opener on the Munich-focused Ilian Tape four-tracker, Bias Jams.

It's been a couple of years since his last outing but now he returns with his debut EP, Wasteland Breaks, for Molten Moods — a collection of meticulously produced cuts that showcase his approach to detail and melody. Ahead of the release, set for 7th December, we invited him to take control of this week's Shine A Light On mix which floats through crisp, atmospheric electronics, giving you a taste of what Kareem is all about.

Fact Mix 789: Afrodeutsche (Dec '20)

And here we are, closing out the year with a mix from a relative newcomer whose music has travelled well this year.

A Psychic Yes is a producer with whom some will be familiar and others not - with releases on the likes of Tech Startup, Kalahari Oyster Cult and Schloss his sound is uniquely individual. It draws upon a wide collection of influences and moods, pairing elements of IDM with playful UK bass, techno and beyond.

Each of his releases are woven as a wonderful tapestry of odd glitches, melodic flutters, strange percussion and experimental electronics. 

This mix is a representation of his sound and shows us a glimpse of what's to come in the near future for what is a very promising artist.
