Chicago
12:00 - 14:00

A talent from an impossibly young age, Chicago producer and DJ Ron Trent began his musical career aged 14, the year he produced the febrile, wild Chicago anthem "Altered States". His production output has barely let up since, minting numerous labels and sublabels to release his and other's music, most notably Prescription Records, which helped define the smoky and jazz-indebted sound of deep house in the 1990s. This In Focus is a two and a half hour dancefloor session, exploring the sounds of one of Chicago house's most enduring talents. Compiled, mixed and edited by Giles Smith.

Chicago-based archival record label, The Numero Group, host a deep-digging once a month show. Expect comprehensive round ups from their crates, picking out the best old music and reissues, as well as some jubilant nerdy record chat.

Unit 4

Unit 4

Unit 4 has been played on NTS shows including The Slip, with Made In China (Unit 4 Remix) first played on 31 October 2012.

There are two bands called Unit 4.

The 1st and recent 'Unit 4' is 4m1 and 4m2 from Düsseldorf Germany.

Ultra low ragga basslines, hawaian flavoured mellodies and french reversed synthesized akkordeon is what musiclovers all over the globe discover as Unit 4.

Although Unit4 never thought about being placed in a dj´s playlist, the charming "Body Dub" groove has been played by many well known nu & old dj heroes like Ivan Smagge, Tiefschwarz, Ata, I-F, Glimmer Twins, Krikor, Ewan Pearson, Carl Craig, Francois Kervorkian a.s.o. All started in summer 2003 when meeting the Düsseldorf based producers "U4ria" (The Mogs) and the people of Amontillado Music who immediately realized the unique spotted Unit 4-world sound patterns, to transport onto the 12 inch global stage. After an Amontillado Muisc limited test pressing of 200 units, including a hand manufactured artwork screenprint done by Emil Schult (Kraftwerk), Bodydub was licensed to Clone Reccords from Rotterdam for the final release.

The 2nd 'Unit 4' was a Belgian punkrock band out of four girls in the early 80's.
