Jump into the work of the Motor City producer, guitarist, and vibraphone player, Dave Hamilton.

Hamilton is probably most famous for his work in the early 1960s as a session musician at Motown Records, with the legendary Funk Brothers. In 1963, he released his debut as a leader with Blue Vibrations, on the Motown subsidiary Workshop Jazz. Nowadays, he is remembered not only as a musician, but also as a talented, successful and highly respected producer. In the mid-’60s Hamilton created his first labels Tempo and Topper, and in 1965 established the Da Da recording studio. As label owner, producer and studio musician, Hamilton recorded a wide variety of material during the 1960s and 1970s, much of which was unreleased at the time, including gospel and funk recordings. He went on to start further record labels, including TCB and Demoristic, and his career as a producer has been documented by Ace Records since 1998 - but it’s taken several series of compilations from the label to release just a fraction of the music Dave Hamilton produced.

Known for their boundary pushing, often challenging electronic productions, and pioneering experiential live performances, the duo of Sheffield's Mark Fell and Mat Steel deviated from their city's tradition for more straightforward bleep and techno offshoots to create sparse, minimal and repetitive competitions that favour gentle insistence over high impact.

_"we focus on leaving the audience feeling cold, not just a lack of interest in trying to engage anyone, but more like deliberately avoiding this... no dynamic changes in beats or nodding heads behind powerbooks, just large, awkward, immobile slabs of form. Imagine a Zen Buddhist with unresolved emotional issues. For me, thats how this particular "vibe" relates to minimal or formal aesthetics."_ - Mark Fell

The outré hip-hop duo credited for putting Atlanta on the map, Outkast were renowned for bringing a flair for the theatrical to hip-hop during the mid nineties, inspired as they were by their flamboyant funk forebears: Sly, Parliament-Funkadelic, Prince et al.
After a streak of both critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums in the '90s and '00s, Andre 3000 and Big Boi moved onto solo careers, after the name Outkast had long become synonymous with musical eclecticism and infectious melody.

This episode of In Focus was mixed and compiled by OK Williams.

Who else sounds like Larry Heard? In the late 1980s, The Chicago house producer was one of the first artists – initially as a part of Fingers, Inc., and then as a solo act – to truly stamp their own unique aesthetic onto the nascent style of electronic dance music. Favouring lush instrumentation, foggy chords and dreamy melodies over the more mechanic pounding of many of his counterparts, he inspired the "deeper" sounds of the midwest's second wave, and generations of young clubbers elsewhere around the world. 

This In Focus features close to 3 hours of untouchable deep house beauty from Larry Heard - compiled, mixed and edited by [Giles Smith.](https://www.nts.live/shows/giles-smith)

Formed in 1987 while the members were attending university in Toyko, Fishmans have had a long, unpredictable trip through the music industry, and have technically never offically retired the band, despite the tragic passing of their vocalist Shinji Sato in 1999. 

Drummer Kin-Ichi Motegi keeps the spirit of Fishmans - and their legacy of seminal, inventive psychedelic rock and dream pop - alive.
