I wrote about my Unsound 2025 highlights, including Jim O'Rourke & Eiko Ishibashi, Abdullah Miniawy, Kara-Lis Coverdale, and a Kyoto DJ named 1729 who played two of the best ambient sets I've ever heard futurismrestated.substack.com/p/fr-139-wea...

I interviewed Florida rave pioneer Peter Wohelski about TRiP Magazeen, a DIY zine from 1992-94 that covered UR, Aphex Twin, Mixmaster Morris, Laurent Garnier and so many more. Newly compiled, it's a time machine from a lost, pre-internet world.

"His set is sweeping and vulnerable, touching on all eight years of his discography — including "nite flite," a dj blackpower cameo — with immense gratitude, family pride and a few tears."

"When most hip-hop artists were still sampling James Brown drumbreaks, Sensational was freestyling over Karlheinz Stockhausen records. For three decades, the raspy-voiced MC has been dropping his trademark stream-of-consciousness bars over electronic-leaning, off-kilter beats."
