Boiler Room says...

 

Lokiboi's backing of his heritage is stronger than most: see his semi-regular 'Soviet Grooves' show on NTS, or his established presence in East Europe's underground rave scene.

This one though strays away from the dancefloor and looks to a weird future, rather than the – equally weird – past.

Peculiar percussive jams, crackly field recordings, low-slung house demos and more comes via OL, Lokiboi himself, some cast members of Gost Zvuk (one of the earliest, and still to this day best, of our Upfront mixes) and plenty other Cyrillic curios inside.
