ORBITAL, ANTHONY NAPLES, SANDWELL DISTRICT + DARKSIDE lead new music for this episode of ABSTRACT SCIENCE from JOSHUA P. FERGUSON + HENRY SELF. JOSHUA draws inpsiration from WISDOM TEETH’s new PATTERN GARDENING compilation, putting together a set of deep, dubby, + minimal-ish house selections—both new and old. HENRY strikes out with a peak-time worthy set, detouring into leftfield and chillout territory on the backend. [aired 1 May 2025 on WLUW-Chicago 88.7FM]
