We talk about Daft Punk releasing their early singles on Soma and the history of the label more generally. And we discuss the modern techno scene in Scotland and across the world.Another point of conversation is the 2018 Slam album Athenaeum 101 - a really great piece of work which very much deserves another look and listen.Scotland has been criminally neglected on the podcast up til now so this is a great way to start addressing the balance! --If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

A key input into that is Jodi Dean's Communucative Capitalism (2005), which I also recommend.This a really interesting discussion of some pertinent issues!--If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
