Samewave Radio: radio en directo desde Portland

Espeeera...

Quitando el polvo a la aguja…

Portland, United States

Samewave Radio

Made at home, played everywhere.

Techno, deep house, and hardgroove from Portland's bench.

Jonathan Denerson started it during the 2020 lockdowns, when nobody could play out and everybody had a hard drive full of mixes going nowhere. It is online-only and nonprofit, based in Portland but spread thin across the map: the roster runs past forty DJs, in Los Angeles, Seattle and New York as well as Oregon. Almost nothing goes out live — a DJ records the hour and sends it in. The SE Uplift neighbourhood coalition sponsors it, and it runs monthly showcases and free DJ training.

Deep, classic and jackin' house on MOVEMINTZ; hardgroove and ghetto tech on Sisi Scientist; UK garage on Escape With CEA; techno and musique concrète on Shadow Scores. B. Blahnik brings Tannic Acid and Anphonics brings Control Room on a monthly turn each, between the weekly shows, and Birdy MRQZ turns up every week without fail. The records lean minimal and tracky.
