New music from MADLIB, THE AVALANCHES, SILKIE + SAULT on this episode of the ABSTRACT SCIENCE podcast, hosted by JOSHUA P. FERGUSON + HENRY SELF. For the first hour, JOSHUA surveys jazz samples, Dilla-esque beats, UK bass + throwback breaks with selections new and old (though mostly new). On the back half, HENRY mixes up the tempo with a set that spans left-leaning house, indie techno, vintage acid + a touch of soul. [aired 4 February 2021 on WLUW-Chicago 88.7FM]
