Show number 32!
LOOPS + DOTS is my monthly two-hour radio show on Dublab in Los Angeles.
It’s everything I’m into right now in the worlds of leftfield beats, electronic soul, and experimental sounds.
This month I had a chat with Brisbane-based musician Sampology.
We talked about his very favorite venue to play, why record stores are so important, the genius of broken beat, taking inspiration from the outdoors, and the making of his fantastic new album, Regrowth (pre-order it here).
Plus Sam played a favorite remix from the Avalanches, his favorite broken beat tune, his new single “Suffer and Swim” featuring 30/70’s Allysha Joy, and more.
Also in the mix was all the new music I’m feeling right now including songs from Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Hailu Mergia, Stone Giants aka Amon Tobin, Kiefer, SAULT, BadBadNotGood, Little Dragon, Jordan Rakei, Dego, Khruangbin & Quantic, Jungle, PinkPantheress, among others.
You can stream the show via Mixcloud below and via dublab.com here.
