Along with Cabaret Voltaire, who had taken a bit of a right turn mixing menacing electronic textures with funky dance rhythms in the early to mid 80’s, I was totally hooked on the electronic/hip hop mashups of Mantronix.

This really has stood the test of time and despite sounding a bit “of the time” it remains a killer record.

Full to the hilt with clever, never-out-of-place studio trickery this CD has never sounded so good. There’s really is life still left in the little plastic disc.

Nathan's Session - May 2026

In this session, we explored the road less travelled, the road well travelled, and yet we still ended up hearing the Eagles three times in one round.

In this session, we sought out to prove that the fairer sex can still make a racket with six strings, that music isn’t dead (it just smells funny) and that some of the most interesting artists ignore the rule book.
