Today\u2019s guest deejay is Monty Adkins<\/a>, AKA Skrika.<\/p>\n\n

I discovered Monty when the Cryo Chamber<\/a> label sent out an email announcing the release of Monty\u2019s new album, Fifth Nature<\/a><\/em>. Whenever Cryo Chamber drops an album I drop whatever I\u2019m doing and listen to it because they never fail to deliver mind blowing. Fifth Nature<\/em> was no exception.<\/p>\n\n

The \u201cliner notes\u201d explains that Fifth Nature<\/em> is the first of a series of albums set in the far distant future on a dying Earth. I appreciate concept albums that created their own mythology, but you certainly need to be aware of the backstory of Fifth Nature<\/em>. The album stands on its own and you will lose yourself in its richly textures of a soundtrack for a distant apocalypse. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n

Monty\u2019s mix draws upon the roster of artists on Cryo Chamber. Think of it as a compilation album as distilled by Monty. His mix captures the spirit of the label as well as reflecting Monty\u2019s own tastes.<\/p>\n\n

You\u2019re going to love today\u2019s mix. I encourage you listen to other artists from Cryo Chamber that appear in Monty\u2019s mix such as Dronny Darko<\/a> and Tineidae<\/a> who have guest deejayed on Soundwave<\/p>\n\n

Join us next week for our 100th episode when our guest deejay will be Justin Broadrick<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

See you then.<\/p>\n\n
