Fused is presented by Myk.XLR who began his musical education by listening to multiple genres on a multi-generational home stereogram, broadened by Radio Luxembourg and others, listened to on a hip, hand-held transistor radio – the equivalent of a wonky SatNav on the road to musical discovery.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the stopping points, on a road akin to that of Robert Frost’s poem, one less travelled – was the basement of Brian London’s 007 Club (then on Topping Street, Blackpool) in the late 70s\/80s – ostensibly the birthplace of Blackpool’s ‘Alternative Scene’. Also where, for the first time, Myk dropped vinyl on a pair of decks, an act repeated over the years (nigh on 25 of which in London).<\/p>\n

Returning to Blackpool he was to revisit the blessed hallows of the 007 (then ‘The Liquid Lounge’, now ‘Bootleg Social’) DJing a packed 007 30th Anniversary Reunion in 2010. Back to square one!<\/p>\n

The format is generally Hour One – The Foot-tapping Hour – synthpop and lyric led tracks. Hour Two – The Chair-dance Hour – more dance oriented, including House, Techno, Tech-house, Trance, etc. Hour Three – The Boom-boom Room – gets a little heavier, industrial dance, EBM and ting.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, if we like it, (and there’s a synth in there) we play it, bearing in mind that we tend to dream of electric sheep, which might explain how the show is put together.<\/p>\n

Do get in touch by whatever means is convenient. Request\/suggestions (within the Fused genre universe please) for future shows\/segments are welcome, if we have it we’ll play it. Submissions from electronic artists, local or otherwise, are more than welcome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
