LINDSTROM, SPECIAL REQUEST, DEPECHE MODE + BRONSKI BEAT top the proceedings on this ABSTRACT SCIENCE podcast, a classically diverse double header from MISTER JOSHUA + HENRY SELF. With a jazzy start to the podcast, MISTER JOSHUA highlights the latest from Canadian quartet BADBADNOTGOOD + SHIGETO then turns his sights on new Nordic disco sounds from LINDSTROM + PRINS THOMAS. Moving into bass territory, the first hour closes out with upfront cuts from SPECIAL REQUEST + Chicago footwork highlight DJ MANNY. HENRY SELF takes over the second half of this ABSTRACT SCIENCE podcast, digging in his crates and pressing play on the classic sounds of DEPECHE MODE, BRONSKI BEAT + VANITY 6. Showing just how well their sounds stand up, they’re featured alongside LIFELIKE, SCUBA + INSTRA:MENTAL. [aired 19 october 2017 on WLUW 88.7fm chicago]
