Don’t want to clutter up the thread any more than I already have but everyone’s suggestions have been absolutely bang on. Thanks everyone!

Big track from Joy Orbison

This is massive, so good. Glad he’s still putting out such quality music and not becoming a heritage act (was a bit worried as he’s playing a Bristol show next month that’s running 8pm-2am in acknowledgment that most of the crowd will probably need to be up the next morning).

Damn… awful news. Turn of the 2010s Sandwell District/Silent Servant output remains some of the my all time favourite techno music. RIP :frowning:

Oh fuck that’s such sad news. One of the best DJs spanning the crossover between industrial, techno and new wave. And the Sandwell District LP still one of my absolute favourite records of the last 15 years.

That’s terrible, he can’t have been that old. Was just starting to get Sandwell District moving again as well. Their Fabric mix was a massively important record for me, pure machine music.

Loved Silent Servant’s music, very little of that period of dark moody techno really connected with me but his did. His NTS show was always worth a listen as well

Devastatingly it sounds like his wife Simone, and another musician called Soft Moon, also died at the same time.

Hiding as it’s unconfirmed:

People on Twitter talking about it being an accidental fentanyl overdose :frowning:

Fuck… That’s unbelievably sad. I don’t know whether it’s true or not, but please test your drugs people :pray:

Got this on now, the last episode of Silent Servant’s NTS show, a live set from 2010 of what he would have played in a set in 1998

Very sad news.

Absolute magic this, isn’t it? Prob my favourite since Jaar’s a decade ago.

Desperately need another DJ Python album this year.

I subscribe to YUKU on BC. This popped up yesterday and has blown me away. Really emotional and atmospheric hardcore/jungle stuff mostly, with bits of pure ambient and other stuff thrown in. I defy anyone to get as far as 2nd track Now I Know Paradise and not have surrendered to it completely. Just gorgeous stuff.

First episode of room two for the year is now up!

Got the first guest mix of the year coming in a couple of weeks too, plenty of slots so for anyone keen to contribute drop me a DM.
