THE SMILE, JOHN GLACIER, YANN TIERSEN + GALLIANO top the new music selects for the latest ABSTRACT SCIENCE pod from JOSHUA P. FERGUSON + HENRY SELF. JOSHUA digs deep into his digi-bag for a full set of low-slung, deep, discoid (and occasionally techy) house. HENRY takes over on the back half with lush hip-hop, cinematic house, indie dance + peak time acid. [aired 27 February 2025 on WLUW-Chicago 88.7FM]
