JAMES BLAKE, DJ SHADOW, BURIAL + YUSSEF DAYES feature on this episode of ABSTRACT SCIENCE hosted by JOSHUA P. FERGUSON + HENRY SELF. JOSHUA leads off slow and low with a mix of downtempo + left-leaning electronic, moving into UK-heavy sounds + cosmic house. HENRY follows with a set that’s at turns jazz-inflected, mutant disco-y + primed for the dance floor. [aired 12 October 2023 on WLUW-Chicago 88.7FM]
