It's been a while, in fact just over a month since MANTIS was on the air. A combination of mates and family weddings and a flat move meant MANTIS went off air for June. But we're back and we're launching full on again with the usual darkfloor electronica.

SHOWCASE
We managed to track down Ion Driver from California to provide this weeks showcase. And a belter it is too. Deep broken vibes permeate from within with this excellently programmed mix.

'While I was growing up I spent a lot of time at a neighbor's house,' Bunton recalls. 'His grandparents would constantly be listening to big band while his mother would be listening to 80's music; Oingo Boingo was one band that got played constantly, and Men Without Hats. Later when I started skateboarding I was exposed to a whole new world of music through skate videos; bands like Firehose, Chuck Treece, Dead Kennedys, Descendants, and Bad Religion.'

With a pile of remixes that have recently hit all the usual places (including the excellent remix of Irronisch by Charlton out now on Digital Distortions) as well a 4 tracker EP and another soon to drop Ion Driver really should be taking up some of that record box of yours.

In the first hour you had DVNT on the selections and we dished up a right package. Including the huge Phat RiderZ's Heaven Massacre, new Odan, a new Eskmo remix, some rinsing techno, some deep tech house from the Selph and Wavestream, jacking ghettotech from DJ Slugo and Paul Blackford. You also heard a track from Dan F's latest LP. Rendition and some AFX 190bpm glitchcore.

Thanks for listening.
