Expect baleriac, house, funk and more in this scenic adventure.

Fused Music from the Morroccon Desert

Alchemy, a new philanthropic festival in Saharan Morocco, April 2013, provide a playlist driven by their first performers, of desert-funk-rock for tonight's Free Lab Radio, including Om, Secret Chiefs, Sonic Youth guitarist Lee Ranaldo and The Master Musicians of Bukkake.

This four day festival in the Morroccon desert kicks off in just a few weeks and is original in that the project encourages exclusive collaborations with musicians from the Saharan region.

Alchemy at Zahar is the baby of Basile Marrero, director, who has persuaded the Sonic Youth guitarist to perform a collaborative set of original and improvised work with Bachir Attar and then with players from The Master Musicians of Jajouka, a Saharan band.

Tonight's Free Lab Radio - Indidginus Mix

From a studio in Cape Town comes a one hour mix of Middle Eastern inspired dub-step and electronic world music.

While the genre definition of  world music has become such a turn off (hackneyed to death as it is by the wealthy consumers that run festivals of 'world music' and thereby tacitly implying that western music is not part of the world we live in) Indidginus gets the balance of soft and hard just right here.

Here's Indiginus's bio on his site:
"Indidginus blah blah blah ragga drum swagga blah blah  blah best music you ever heard blah BBC Radio 1 blah blah blah NME, MixMag, DJ Magazine blah boner soup blah blah blah top rankin blah blah one to watch blah blah nominated for Mercury Prize and 10 grammies blah blah. Blah."

11pm-midnight

NME's Ten Most Pretentious Albums, Ever

What makes a pretentious album? A groan-inducing concept, lots of highfalutin' waffle, and a ridiculous cover. If you’re lucky you get all three at once. HERE are some of the worst offenders.

Tonight's Free Lab Radio Show - Bolly & Glitch Disco

Tonight we pay homage to the link between kooky Bolly wood disco and glitchy electro disco tunes, featuring two new tracks by Scanner, tracks with Bollywood steel guitar, and work by TEP, Dugong (following on from last week's show devoted only to women producing their own music) and several tracks to blow the bottom of your trousers right into the air ...
