In this episode, we interview Sonja, aka Sofie Mikhaylova. Sonja is a DJ, experimental synth artist, music writer and editor, workshop organizer and facilitator, and creator of independent record label Biblioteka Records.  
We chat with Sonja about her new e-book Experimenting, avoiding trying to make music the "right" way, messages to our past musical self, and recording the physical sounds of her modular synth.

In this episode, Heidi Chan and Laura Dickens chat with Dot Starkey, the owner and operator of the Lost Angles music label, about Vaporwave, Ciat-Lonbarde synths, and her most recent album release "We Questioned Everything". The vapornoise, plunderphonics-inspired release asks listeners: What does it mean for a queer and trans woman to be unable to see herself in the advertising and media  landscape of her childhood?
