Featuring the sounds of the maximalist electronic producer’s melodic 2009 debut album Butter. Hudson Mohawke a.k.a. Ross Birchard was quickly snatched up by Warp Records after making his legendary 2005 mixtape ‘Hudson’s Heeters’ as a teenager from his bedroom in Glasgow. Since then, and at spectacular speed, Hudson Mohawke has become one of world’s ‘super-producers’ and in turn has singularly changed the sound of rap by working with genre titans like Kanye West, Drake, Future and Pusha T to name just a few. Made when he was just 23, Butter is a blindingly bright and frenetic world of screaming guitar riffs, tripped-up drum patterns, euphoric pitch-shifted melodies and heavy bass.

Plus, meandering improvised guitar duets, organ-based experimental pop inspired by Northern Ireland’s social history and atmospheric dungeon synth that is raising funds for mental health charities. Also on the show, appearances from Freak Zone favourites Anna Meredith, Ivor Cutler and Sockethead.
