'Electro punk disco', what's not to like about that? This is the name that London duo Baba Ali coined to describe their electrifying sound which takes a little bit of all the things we love here at Ransom Note and stirs them up in a big old pot.

Comprised of American musician Baba Doherty and British guitarist Nik Balchin, the group blend elements of punk funk and electro with NYC disco and no wave, that's equal parts for the dance floor and for the stage, which they're no stranger to.

They've been touring up and down the country since their debut LP dropped in 2021 and they're showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. With the release of their sophomore album imminent - a debut on Memphis Industries called 'Laugh Like A Bomb' which has been on repeat on 6Music - they join The Go! Team on tour around the UK as of this weekend. But before that they'll be making a pitstop at our own R$N residency at The Social on 10th March for an intimate live set...

Ahead of the gig, we asked Baba to give us a flavour of all his influences, which he does in fine fashion with this mix of groovy, crunchy funk, punk, synth pop, new wave and electro... Perfect fodder for your thirsty Thursday.

Baba Ali: The 'Shine A Light On' Mix

Reda Saiarh's music is a blend of the old and the new. The Belgium-born, Geneva-based producer caught the music bug initially through his Moroccan father whose record collection was a treasure trove of classic new beat sounds. 

It's this iconic Belgian era that motivates Reda's musical ventures, but he always brings his own modern twist to the table, which sees him throwing fresh electronic sounds into the mix. 

When he's not hunkering down in the studio, he's keeping the spirit alive musically and culturally at Canal 54, the cafe he runs alongside friends Sam and Yacine in the heart of the city. 

Now, we first cottoned onto him after the release of his debut EP, Let's Dance, for Afrobotic Musicology and knew we had to work with him some way, some how. And so we did on his sophomore EP, Comfort Zone. Released last month on our sub-label Human Endeavour, which followed his track contribution to the imprint's first VA compilation, the five tracks showcases his unique and forward-thinking approach to new beat.

Off the back of his release, we wanted to show you that he's not only a dab hand in the studio, but also behind the decks. Bringing you a dose of the sounds that inspire his own productions, Reda packs this hour mix full of 80s goodness, oddball disco, proto house, and of course a whole lotta glam new beat heat...

For Viscera 096, Nathan Dawidowicz pilots our latest exploration of the cosmos.

'Music has forever been the long-driving passion of Nathan Dawidowicz’s exploration, seeking to broaden popular perspective via their own musical storytelling - beyond tradition and preconceptions. Genre-defying is a must while DJing, opening the dance floor to a hallucinatory dialog that invites inclusivity and intimacy all in the service of the collective journey.

In April 2023 - their debut solo album “Sanctuary Of Ideas” is due via the Zurich-based label Lustpoderosa; a work that explores the dichotomy of the sanctuary as a sacred place and as a shelter, by asking Metaphorical questions about the tension between constructive and destructive facets of irrational will.'

Sit back and enjoy Nathan's mix today as he circulates through intergalactic melodies.

„Mokyklos suole naršydamas per nespalvoto telefono WAP naršyklę akis vis kliūdavo už paslaptingo renginio "Minimal Mondays". Smalsumo vedamas netrukus pradėjau jame lankytis. Galiausiai prisijungiau prie minimal.lt komandos, su kuria keliauju jau 10 metų. Minimal Mondays buvo tas renginys, kuriame debiutavau kaip DJ’us. Dėkoju komandai už sutiktus žmones, išgirstą muziką, aplankytas vietas ir neįtikėtinas istorijas. Linkiu pagaliau šiam renginiui patekti į UNESCO paveldo sąrašą.” — pasakoja Karolis Urbonas. Kartu su juo Minimal Mondays 19 gimtadienį švęsime jau rytoj: bit.ly/minimalmondays19

"While browsing through the WAP browser on my non-colored phone in the school hallway, my eyes stumbled upon the mysterious event called "Minimal Mondays." Curiosity led me to start attending it soon after. Eventually, I joined the minimal.lt team and have been traveling with them for 10 years now. Minimal Mondays was the event where I debuted as a DJ. I thank the team for the people I met, the music I heard, the places I visited, and the incredible stories. I hope that this event will finally be included in the UNESCO World Heritage list." - Karolis Urbonas remembers the good old days as we celebrate Minimal Mondays' birthday tomorrow: bit.ly/minimalmondays19
