February 2026

Plugging this wonderful little YouTube video on Detroit techno.

Mixes & Albums

• Four Tet - Live at Alexandra Place London, 24th May 2023
• DJ Screw - Money by the Ton (Chapter 133)

  There's a really nice remix of a Jay-Z song on here.
• Aosibi Seksu - Citrus

  Fuzzy guitar music reminiscent of waking up after taking too much melatonin (positive).
• DJ_Dave - @TheLotRadio 06-18-2024

  I listened to this on the trainer a lot. Minimal(-ish), repetitive, Surf Gang.
• Purelink - Purelink

  Minimal techno; second appearance on here.
• Junior Varsity Km - You're Fabulous

  Natural, lightweight DnB. Thanks Nina
• Codeine - Frigid Stars

  Slowcore; if John's Essential Listening List were a thing, this would be on it.
• username - OVERTIME

  Jersey Club remixes too relaxed to play in the club.
• Deepchord Presents: Echospace - Liumin

  Seminal, 2000s dub techno
• Soundtrack to Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run)

  90's acid techno backing to a German movie about the dangers of breaking The Rules.

Songs

• Unwound - Below the Salt
• Bobbie Gentry, Glen Campbell - Little Green Apples

  Two goats, one track, call it a herd.
• Katteyes, SINAKA - ALO

  Insane reggaeton track
• Depeche Mode - See You
• Lucy Bedroque - Yes, You May

  Love song for the modern day yeah it's good
• Galaxy 2 Galaxy, Cornelius Harris, Christa Robinson, DJ Dex - Transition

  Banging Detroit techno; watch the documentary.

• fakemink, RADA - Plush

Janurary 2026

Mixes & Albums

• The Flamingos - Flamingo Serendae

  Soft doo-wop. Great airport listen.
• New Order - Low-Life

  New Order in full force. This is their best. Unrelenting, soul-crushing dance music.
• French Montana, Max B - Coke Wave 2

  Max B is free. New (to me) car. The time is right.
• Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense

  Nobody talks about this, but This Must Be The Place is simultaneously the best love song and the best gym song ever made.
• Alice In Chains - Jar Of Flies

  Dad, you're so right
• Phillip Glass - Phillip Glass: Music in Twelve Parts

  I didn't listen to all four hours, but the first two are great.
• Fiona Apple - Tidal

  George called it alt girl Hamilton lol
• ISIS - Panopticon

  #DroneCity
• Modest Mouse - The Moon & Antartica

  Handshake on the cover

Songs

• Bladee, Thaiboy Digital - Everlasting Flames
• Pharoah Sanders - Love Is Everywhere

  Another unconventional gym classic. This gets me pumped up.
• Thaiboy Digital - Tiger
• Bill Nelson - Tender Is The Night
• DRS, MC Conral - Sonic Weapon

  Brings the energy, trainer tune
• Boards of Canada - Telephasic Workshop
• Boris, Merzbow - Death Valley

  Bit of a sonic assault, that's what makes it nice.
• 454 - KEEP A SMILE

December 2025

Mixes & Albums

• The Ronettes - Presenting the Fabulous Ronettes Featuring Veronica

  I would put this on anytime it would start snowing. Genius production.
• Placid Angels - First Blue Sky

  Ambient techno. Trainer music.
• Cowgirl Clue - Rodeo Star

  Dirt-fueled fusion of country and hyperpop.
• Four Tet - There Is Love In You

  Absolute classic; natural dance music. It's the best.
• Tortoise - TNT

  Another classic
• Ashrae Fax - Never Really Been Into It

  Recreated Cocteau Twins. It's so faithful to the original that it doesn't sound derivative.
• god of war - serotonin

  TAGABOW offshoot that leans on the electronic side.
• Solvent OS - Clickbait Manifesto

  Similar to serotonin.

Songs

• Cassie - Long Way 2 Go

  Not to give Diddy some credit but man...
• Board of Canada - Nlogax
• Lancey Foux - RONALDINHO

  The lyrics are cringe, the distortion makes up for it.
• Four Tet - Twenty Three
• Games - Strawberry Skies

  Side project of Oneohtrix Point Never with someone named Joel Ford. Catchy, synthy, disco.
• Red House Painters - Katy Song

  Perfect
