The mysterious sound of vibrating metals...

Quality breeds quality...and this week's show is a great example.

Based on a Projekt tribute album to the great Anglo/Irish/Australian band DEAD CAN DANCE, we showcase both cover versions of classic DCD songs from DARK SANCTUARY, STOA and MIRABILIS -- and artists whose musical direction has been inspired by them, like VAS, STELLAMARA, JOCELYN MONTGOMERY and more. Unusually for us, there's even a song with an English vocal, but the rest of the show hews to the wordless vocalise style that LISA GERRARD of DCD has popularized, including a powerful song by the Mistress herself from her collaboration with PATRICK CASSIDY.

Lovers of space and song, this is for you.

At the nadir of our winter run, here's a supercooled excursion to the polar regions inspired by the spectacle of the northern (and southern) lights. Featured artists are ROBERT RICH and IAN BODDY, plus chilled electronica from IGNEOUS FLAME, REMANENCE, MAITREYA, DEEP IMAGINATION and more. Bundle up! It's a cold one...

Week of Jan. 6th...

As we get back in production gear after the New Year hiatus, we've resurrected a trippy winter electronica show from the mid-1990s, with classic early ambient from several historic compilations including tracks by APHEX TWIN, DUBTRIBE, OMICRON, STRYKE and more. Yes, spacefans, it's time once again to CHILL OUT.
