Mary Anne Hobbs: Road Warrior Tour Diary for URB – Part Four

The final installment of a bass-fueled journey through the North American continent. 

 

Mary Anne Hobbs graces URB once again with the final entry to her incredible Road Warrior Tour Diary. It’s been a sleepless adventure across the US and beyond, but of course, when you’re playing gigs like Francois K’s Deep Space in New York City, or King Britt and Rucyl’s Saturn Never Sleeps, you tend to keep going no matter how much sleep you’ve lost. Along with those East Coast stops, Mary Anne hits up Canada with some hard-pressed Canadian customs drama. At least she played a great gig with the always-awesome XI. More info about all the highs, lows and in-betweens after the jump.

Sonic Router: Suburban Sine Wave Surfing (Video)

April has seen the sun push its UV rays back into the lives of many a Londoner and after a good few months in hiding its welcome return seems to have brought a whole crate of upfront and exceptional releases to the fore. With emphatic returns from Starkey, Ramadanman and TRG (all be it under his new CosminTRG moniker) the dancefloor is looking like a pretty ominous place to aim your tunes at the moment, but a few of the newer producers are bringing their worth and staking a claim right from the off.
