IN FOCUS: TAKASHI KOKUBO

A pioneer in the distinctly Japanese sonics of "environmental" sound design, composer Takashi Kokubo began his solo career in the early 1980s, making synthesizer compositions inspired by classical music in the vein of fellow Japanese composer Isao Tomita, but across the following decades, his productions would pay deep homage to the sounds of the natural world and its spiritually soothing properties – as both inspiration for his music, and as a prominent feature in the music itself.

Gabrielle Kwarteng

In an era of everything at once, Gabrielle Kwarteng is a DJ who weaves stories that often look to the past, while always focusing on possible futures. Dip in to hear a range of dance music from downtempo to deep house to techno rollers - and everything in between.

House Electronica Hip Hop

Hip hop to deep soul, smouldering electronica to jazz and back again, whether released this week or 50 years ago. It's about energy, a musical conversation. The sounds loved by David Sacks and Francis Redman, played with love for you.
