Last year Vardae, Lyon based producer Cédric Arnous, released the fantastic EP, The Kaipos. It's the debut release for the London based label OODA (Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) - a new label co-founded by Forest Drive West, and localhost.
OODA is focused on polyrhythmic techno, bass, and ambient experiments, and Varade delivers all over on this one. I am really looking forward to what comes next from both the label, and Vardae.

Did you know, the first track ever played on Mantis Radio, way back in May 2007, was F**k With Your Head by DJ Rap (@djrapmusic)?
Nearly 17 years later I'm playing a track from that same time period. The original version of this time track featured on the same album as F**k With..., her 2nd, Learning Curve (Higher Ground, 1998). An album, that whilst you might not have heard (but should), reportedly sold over 1 million copies.
This is BT's remix of her track Bad Girl, also from 1998, and one of 3 released versions BT did of the track. This being his Spoken Progenitor Mix.
Earlier in the 90s, Rap's Charissa Saverio was producing jungle and proto drum & bass, releasing much of it through her label Proper Talent. She was a trailblazer in a very male dominated scene.
With producer Aston Harvey she would write the beautiful and anthemic Engineers Without Fears' track Spiritual Aura (Dee Jay Recordings, 1993). A track I played recently on my weekly radio show Mornings with Darkfloor. It's still a classic.
Long story short, this is still a great track (original + remix) 25+ years later.

Without doubt Detroit's DJ Bone (@djbone313) is one of the best technical DJs on the planet. And as if that isn't enough, he's a consistent and engaging producer of the music he champions.
From his recent album FURTHER, out now on Subject Detroit, this is Poppa D's Basement, clipped from Mantis Radio episode 354.

We lost another titan just before the new year, Killing Joke guitarist Geordie Walker.
Unmistakable in his guitar tone, Geordie was a talented musician who helped to make the band what they were through their iconic tracks and sound.
Clipped from Mantis Radio 354 this cut right here is the Your Heart Is A Weapon Dub of their 1985 goth rock masterpiece (and personal favourite) Love Like Blood.

In session for Mantis Radio 353 we've Rookley.
They came onto my radar last year with their LP Playground. An album packing bass heavy breakbeat, stirring sound design, clanky 2 step, and even cold industrial.
As an artist they want to keep the anonymity attached, letting the music do the talking. And talk it does on their all production live set, recorded exclusively for Mantis Radio.
Listen to their full set on episode 353, available at Darkfloor, Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, and Patreon — links are in the bio.

Hedchef continues to impress. His track, Deafening Silence, is another in a long and growing line of great tracks.
Released earlier this year on German imprint Vitus' Curse, this fine cut of heavy electro from the Australian based producer, is techy, dark, and groovy.
This clip is taken from episode 353 of Mantis Radio. Listen to the full 2 hour show on our website, podcast, Patreon, and SoundCloud.

Henry Greenleaf is a new producer on my radar. And this recent track of his, Stopper Knot, is the reason why. It was released in September through Australian label Modern Hypnosis as part of a 3 track VA EP (the label's 3rd in a series) that also features cuts from Pugilist and Ebb.
