  • Episode 34 –Sasha - Bloodlock
    2026/04/15
    It’s 1987 in Wales, United Kingdom and Alexander Coe, who is still in his teens, regularly drives to Manchester from his Bangor home, to go clubbing at the Hacienda nightclub. The scene there revolves around early house music with a mix of other styles, and attracts groups of proficient dancers in trendy clothes who hold dance battles. After then spending a few months away from the club, Coe returns to the Hacienda in early 1988, to find a somewhat different spectacle and sound now in place. Acid house has arrived, full of Day-Glo fluorescent colour, distorted smiley faces, strobe lights, and disordered carnage on the dancefloor. Coe has never seen people behave so freely, and soon becomes obsessed with what only a few weeks prior would have been an alien collection of sounds to him. He soon drops out of school, moves to Manchester, and goes to the club practically every night it is open. This commitment to acid house, and other related forms of electronic music that come after it, motivate him to explore djing, and producing, eventually under the artist title of Sasha, a name that people in his life use to refer to him. Fifteen years or so following this introduction to a new sonic world, Sasha releases the track, Bloodlock.

  • Episode 33 –Ellen Allien - Shorty
    2026/03/15
    It’s November 9th, 1989, in Berlin, Germany, and the wall dividing the eastern and western sides of the city, and the country, is today being torn down. A 21-year-old West German woman, Ellen Fraatz, spends the day celebrating with her friends, riding around on their bikes and exploring spaces they had not been able to previously, on what she later describes as the happiest day of her life. In the months and years following this momentous occasion, Fraatz spends more and more time in East Berlin, in particular attending the clubs that start opening in warehouses and other unusual spaces there. On these adventures she begins going to acid house and techno parties, from which develops her love of the music, leading to Fraatz producing tracks such as “Shorty”, under the artist name, Ellen Allien.

  • Episode 32 –Phuture - Acid Tracks
    2026/02/15
    It’s 1985 in the largest Midwestern city of the United States, Chicago, and three friends are tinkering with a newly acquired device, the Roland TB-303 bass synthesiser. The 303 has been manufactured and marketed as a bass line generator, for solo musicians to use as an accompaniment in the same way they might use a drum machine for drum parts. Earl Smith, otherwise known as Spanky, Herbert Jackson, or Herb J, and Nathaniel Pierre Jones, DJ Pierre, find an entirely different personality and application though, for the 303. On the first day that DJ Pierre tinkers with the device, he extracts from it a squelchy, psychedelic sound, that has seemingly nothing in common with a bass guitar. With this sound he creates the core of the track that will become known as “Acid Tracks”, from which the genre of acid house will emerge.
