The Hive Collective are a group of audio and visual artists that has been at the forefront of developing innovative electronic music and audiovisual performance in Liverpool since the organisation was established in 2003. This mix was originally created to soundtrack the Sculpture Remixed exhibition at Tate Wed, 21 Jul 2010 14:00:00 GMT broken2003 In a parallel dimension not often intruded upon by the living, the sounds to which we dance took a decidedly different turn around the time of the latest millennium change. Intrepid explorer Erik XVI gained unprecedented access to the fading splendour of this parallel future, and succeeded in bringing back this unique audio artefact, a field recording of what happened to the music we call techno in an alternative universe.

He's certainly the nicest label boss I've ever had. His mix is a celebration of that most maligned of musical terms, the 'glitch' Sun, 12 Sept 2010 14:00:00 GMT broken2005 Label boss TVO finally delivers the first of a multi-part podcast covering all the ground that the label will cover, with exclusives from himself and fuure B20 releases. Huge, sprawling and dense, this is the first accompaniment to our first release, his "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale", out on Monday October 18th.

Mon, 29 Nov 2010 23:00:00 GMT broken20062 Part 3 of label boss TVO's three part giant podcast, taking in the harder edged areas of sound that have influenced the label. Tues, 14 Nov 2010 08:00:00 GMT broken20063 I put this mix together in summer 2005. It was originally designed for playing on Sunday afternoons at the Foundry, East London, where slow sound system ran sporadic listening sessions from 2003 to 2009. I took a fairly loose-limbed approach in assembling the thing. There's a lot of the new weird america and free-folk / psyche stuff my friends and I were listening to at the time, alongside some field recordings, lo-fi stuff, electronics, outish rock, John Fahey and Can. Heroically, I included pretty much the full 18 minutes of 'Augmn' which seemed like a good idea at the time. You'll have to judge for yourselves. The mix was recorded on three portable cd players to minidisc. One take, no edits or post-production. www.slowsoundsystem.net Sat, 8 Jan 2011 08:00:00 GMT broken2007 Label lynchpin Production Unit severs the boundaries between dimensions with this time-displaced selection of broken sounds. http://dave.marciablaine.com Sat, 21 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMT broken2008 Orphax is the solo project of Amsterdam resident Sietse van Erve. He explores the thin line between minimal music, drones, psychedelics and field recordings. In his live settings this exploration comes back through improvised pieces of music that use both pre-recorded sounds as live input. Orphax has released several small scale CDR's and free download releases on small labels and as self released issues. Sietse also played in Dutch psychedelic drone post-rock outfit Zonderland and runs the label Moving Furniture Records.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 00:00:00 GMT broken2017 This mix sees Chris trawl through an extensive back catalogue of both electronic music projects as well as installation soundtracks and residency work. The mix was designed to fit on a CD for your listening pleasure and has been lovingly crafted. In the past Dooks has been criticised for not having a brand as such and as a result, the works on the mix are songs, robotic beats, spoken word pieces orlive recordings of other artists. Chris used to think this was a problem. Now he thinks if Jim ORourke can do it, then maybe thats OK after all. Tues, 28 Nov 2011 00:00:00 GMT broken2018 Last year, a little disillusioned with the pap that passed for a lot of new music, I decided to dive head first into dub. Starting with some of the reliable names (Tubby, Perry, Scientist), emboldened by the fact that a whole heap of it is available at pretty amazing prices, and taking full advantage of a surprisingly efficient Amazon recommendations system, I spent around 40 quid each month amassing a pile of Jamaican goodness. Though Ive barely scratched the surface, I feel Ive got a decent education in dub. Hopefully this mix will do the same for any other novices and at least amuse the sages out there.
