Friendly Potential with Guest DJs

Ep. 286 w/ The Behuá Icára Takeover

We hand over Episode 286 to the co-founders of non-profit label Behua Icara. From their base in Lima, Perú, Behuá Icára supports and collaborates with the Shipibo Konibo Xetebo community in the Amazon, as well as producers from Perú, South America and the rest of the world. You can hear their efforts on the stunning compilations Ritmos Para Sanar, both available at behuaicara.bandcamp.com.

We kick off the show with a slow-burning mix from Daniel Holguin aka Aristidez , a producer and deejay, who also curates infamous party Casalocasa . After that, we hear a ramping mix of producers from Latin America and elsewhere from Mariano León.

Ep. 284 w/ Joyul and Scarlett.

Joyul is a musician and producer based in Seoul. Over six years, she has developed a unique sound derived from ambient recordings, voice, guitar, and synthesis. This was showcased on Earwitness, her debut album released last year on the ever-reliable label Psychic Liberation. In the first hour, she broadcasts an array of immersive work, including pieces from her South Korean contemporaries. In the second hour, Scarlett shares an ambient mixtape.  

Ep. 282 w/ Cucina Povera and Ov Pain

Cucina Povera is the moniker of Glasgow-based sound artist Maria Rossi. We're enamoured with their sublime and haunting experimentations in voice and field recordings, which have been captured on labels like Offen Music, Editions Mego, mappa, and Night School. They share an hour of works from dear friends around the world.

Ov Pain are a Melbourne-via-Dunedin duo comprising Renee Barrance and Tim Player. Their recent album The Churning Blue of Noon is, in our opinion, one of the more urgent and essential releases of the past year. We're excited to share an hour of weird and genre defying music that has soundtracked their lives in recent years.

We're blessed to be starting our 2022 radio series with a takeover from the mighty Gavsborg. Over two hours, the Equiknoxx Music family member shares edits and tunes that have been on high rotate.
