Keep this frequency clear! (It's been a little while coming!) If you thought Hospital Radio had packed up it's disco style fold away Dj booth and had been ushered back into the cupboard, you're wrong! When life takes over, even the music has to stop and you have to get your arse on that remaining chair! Thankfully the music's back and we're returning in some style, with an epic mix from audio agitator Zero Tep...Hold onto your seats!
Zero Tep (aka. Kaelin Bougneit) has electrified listeners with his colorful, experimental bass music on record, his heady, energetic live performances, and eclectic DJ sets. A Portland transplant and member of Milwaukee’s Noh Life crew, Zero Tep has caught the ears of tastemakers like DJ Shadow, Noisia, Ivy Lab, and GRRL, and released music with Saturate Records, Phuture Collective, Daruma, and Rauthentic. As a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, engineer, and founder of the label Subviolet Records, Zero Tep releases music from other aliases, such as the alt-rock/punk project Psychic Sex, and from friends around the world. His unique approach to audio engineering and electronic music production results in powerful experimental music that shifts angularly between left-field bass, jazz fusion, IDM, pop, and ambient music.
A word from Zero Tep:
"I love what you guys are doing! As a diabetic, I can empathize especially with a disease requiring lifelong management, so anything I can do to help raise awareness I'm glad to do! Here's a mix of tunes that are really some of my favorite records; really visual tunes that inform a lot of my own music and mood. Music really colors my days, so hopefully this mix does the same for others."
