We begin today’s show with a heady hypnotic track from Mick Harris’ industrial dub project Scorn. Shifting into the lush shimmer of Jonny Nash, and a piece from his brand new album. There’s trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. Arguably the most prolific musician in Finland, if not Europe, Aleksi Perälä. And something new from the Nigerian born, London based Obongjayar, featuring the mighty Little Simz.

You’ve late 70s afro funk from T.P. Orchestre Poly-Rythmo. The new project from 2562’s Dave Huismans – ex_libris. And the boppy, positive life vibes of Peter Broderick.

You’ll hear the beautiful work of Jeff Buckley, with a piece from his debut record Grace – one of the best albums ever recorded. The supreme vocals of Edith Piaf. And something fresh from Norway’s Biosphere.

There’s a cut from Brendon Moeller’s latest dub techno EP. Mid 90s era Future Sound of London. The iconic Ricardo Villalobos. Joey Beltram and an early techno roller under his Open Mind alias. Brand new big bass n breaks from Brain Rays. A cut from Estoc’s stunning new record for Chinese experimental industrial bass music imprint SVBKVLT. And peak Madonna, with a track from her greatest record.

Following the electro folk of Ukraine’s Go_A we roll into heavy riff territory with Tool, finishing on Melvins.

Each week Mx Darkfloor soundtracks your morning, setting you up for the day. Drawing on many styles and genres. From deep drone, ambient, and dub, through to jazz, grunge, jungle, and breaks. There’s side quests into downtempo, trip-hop, and hip-hop. As well as approachable experimental sound, African rhythms, and Asian beats. To folk, no wave, shoegaze, psych, and fuzzy sludge.

The takeaway is you never know what they’ll play, but it’ll be day friendly, good music.
