bangwagon 024 / DVNT

As we nudge ever closer to being up to date, here’s my show from September 4th. Full of some tasty deep electro, dub, dubtech, electronica and bass music. Even some very old country folk music from Woody Guthrie, it was recorded way back in the 1940s and many cite it as the first concept album.
