Mix for Dublab ‘Dying Songs’
Mark Barton – Sunday Experience compilation
The late Mark Barton wrote millions of words about “strange sounds for freaky people” on his Sunday Experience blog. Bearsuit Records have put together an incredible compilation of diverse music that Mark championed, in memory of Mark and in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support – we’re happy we could contribute too.
For download and CD, 3 hours of music – please share and support if you can. Thank you! x

Idio-tech
Robin’s customized and circuit-bent Elgam Match 15c drum machine dating from 197x, AKA “Idio”, has featured on probably every ISAN track since 199x, our secret weapon (of sorts).
Idio is included (in various modes) in our sample pack, available from our pals at Intimate Noise : https://intimatenoise.com/sample-pack/isan-pond-skating/
