NYC-based producer, DJ and label-head Farren Laen delivers the next installment of the art:cast series or a conglomeration of (own) productions paired with pieces that complement and enhance the set's tone and vibe. Hitting the dark dance spot the New Yorker builds up his set like typical old red brick buildings in the city: stone after stone resulting in a memory lane of the future. Just like in his own music Farren Laen comes up with a vibe that is short of becoming possessive luring one into its atmospheric vortex as the space-out sequences almost have a meditative touch, while latter is left behind shortly before dancers/ listeners drift away in their very own thought bubbles and Farren presses the "House kick-drum" to continue his cat-and-mouse game, a game he seemingly not only plays well but has perfected. Otherwise it's hard to explain how someone can come up with such a beauty of sound-waves within only 67 minutes.

No Christmas songs but plenty of music we like and that we hope you will too.

The Ransom Note Dispatch on Netil Radio (February 2023)

Myself and Matt Cowell have joined forces to bring our selections to Radio Vilnius on the 3rd Saturday of every month on our new Radio Show "Too Hot To Sleep'

For the first instalment of Too Hot To Sleep, I lead the charge. Expect lots of favourites old and new.

Too Hot To Sleep 001 w/ Reefe Murphy

Esa is a producer, musician and DJ who has never been one to sit still. He is always working on something exciting and seems to draw strength from collaboration and the creativity of others as much as he does himself. Over the years he has released music on the likes of Highlife, Local Talk, Dekmantel, Bronswood, Endless Flight and many more – his sound evolving based upon his external influences and discoveries of late.

Based in London, he is incredibly well travelled and has worked alongside a number of musicians and bands, seeking to broaden his musical horizons and draw upon the roots of the sound and cultures which have informed his tastes.

As a DJ Esa is well versed, honing his craft on dancefloors in Glasgow where he held his first residency at the infamous Subculture. It is here that this mixtape was recorded, his return to the party earlier this year was a triumphant tour de force showcasing just how far Esa has come as an artist.

This mixtape spans a wide variety of styles and sounds but most importantly is destined to keep you moving and dancing throughout. Sometimes live sets don’t make much sense out of context, yet in this case there is something special captured in the sound which makes you feel like you are right down the front banging that old Sub Club booth.

Esa: The 'Wednesday Alternative' Mix

For March's instalment of The Dispatch, Rosie Ama was joined by Johnny Xie and Global Warming Records boss Malcolm for two hours of good tunes, vibes and sound effects.

Mournful

Este álbum es como tu amigo 'emo' que nunca sale de casa pero tiene luces LED: muy cool, un poco triste, y siempre te hace sentir cosas. Imagina caminar bajo la lluvia 🌧️ en una ciudad cyberpunk mientras escuchas un cassette viejo 💿 que suena a 'como si un robot 🤖 se emborrachara de café descafeinado'. Tiene ese 'no sé qué' de estática ⚡, neones parpadeando 💡 y un bajo que te susurra 'no te preocupes, todo va a estar bien... probablemente' 😌.

Es el soundtrack ideal para:

Mirar la ventana mientras llueve ✨
Pensar en exceso en tu vida sin hacer nada 🤖
Pretender ser un hacker genio mientras ordenas pizza 🍕
Advertencia: Puede causar ganas inexplicables de comprar una chaqueta de cuero y un walkman. 

No me hago responsable por tus decisiones de moda. 😉
