July’s edition of our residency with Radio Punctum, Prague, featured a host of music inspired by radio host Freddie Hudson’s recent trip to Solstice Festival, Finland, along with some select new and forthcoming music.
Solstice Festival, taking place in mid-June at the lip of the Arctic circle in Finland, featured a number of prominent international acts alongside local selectors and producers. Drawing from this pool, Freddie spun a mix of ambient music and trance/techno hybrids, eventually reaching a close with some recent avant-pop music.
The show features the likes of gem-K (aka emkay), Sansibar, Nikolajev, New Ro, and 53X on Antti Salonen’s Avoidance record label, all from the Helsinki scene, and features parallel new music from Ngoni Eyan, RDS on Utrecht’s de Lichting label, Ronan on Moxie’s On Loop, as well as some new and forthcoming ambient music from pablo diserens and the latest enmossed. The show closes with the brand new YUKU from London-based ROOO, and some choice cuts from Wordcolour’s full length on Houndstooth.
Radio Punctum is now on summer hiatus until September.
