This time we hear a swansong mix from Frankfurt producer Avbvrn. Avbvrn's music has an almost haptic quality, making him a perfect fit for Air Max 97's boundary pushing Decisions label, as well as Leipzig's PH17. His contribution to the show marks the end of a chapter, as he retires his longstanding moniker for his new project Lorica. Dive into a mix that juxtaposes aggressive percussive works amongst textural ambient. After that, FP DJ Gus brings together soft and searing sounds.
