For the next Viscera podcast we welcome Vyvyan!

Vyvyan is someone who works undetectable from the space station, with his unique mixes resonating with the likes of Feel My Bicep and Ransom Note. 

His sound focuses on creating a perfect atmosphere and energy, with his tracks often characterised by deep, driving basslines, intricate percussion, and lush synth textures. Vyvyan's sound has resulted in producing signature remixes for Psychemagik and Sound Du Jour, and tasteful releases for Bordello A Parigi and Me Me Me. If you don't know, get to know.

This month we invited Vyvyan to contribute to the series, which stays true to the game, flowing through an hour of dance-floor cuts, experimental rhythms and cosmic vibrations, the perfect start to your week.

Enjoy it.

Too Hot To Sleep 002 w/ Matt Cowell

R.A.M. in action for April's drive time slot on Netil Radio. A little bit of everything you want and need.

The Ransom Note Dispatch on Netil Radio (April 2023)

The clouds rolled on softly by. One by one they came and went across the deep blue sky, passing by in a forward motion only to disappear some place beyond the horizon and out of sight. It was one of those lazy, dreamy afternoons in the city when time seemed to stand still and nobody had any place particular to be.

The sound of traffic was only rivalled by the noises of the birds. On days like this it was enough to forget that there might ever be a problem again, days like this were made for dreaming.

Grant is set to release his first new music since 2019. The acclaimed producer has been out of action for a few years but is now back with an EP on When The Morning Comes with the same classy, sophisticated House music that he is best known for and loved.

PREMIERE: Grant - Forward Motion [When The Morning Comes]

@marcopassarani
One of Italy's finest electronic exponents and pioneers, Marco Passanrani is taking over this month's episode of The MUSAR Show, with a 60min adventure of bubbling acid, Italo gems and friendly punchy-floor bangers.

With a few, fine twelves on Numbers, Running Back, Vladimir Ivkovic’s Offen Music, AUS Music, Klakson and many more, Passarani has always been at the forefront of electronic music.

Over the years, he crafted covers of Alexander O’Neal and The Jungle Brothers for Peacefrog, re-invigorated Boogie and Italo as Tiger & Woods, and remixed artists such as Alexander Robotnick, Essaie Pas and Miss Kittin, to name a few.

With his Final Frontier / Nature / Pigna stable of labels, Passarani plays a pivotal yet covert role in forwarding electronic music in Europe and to this day he continues to be an inspiration and educator for the younger generation.
