Mike Darkfloor begins the next chapter in his sonic adventures bringing his label Darkfloor Sound to Melodic Distraction's airwaves.

Over the years he's seen waves of trends come and go, but throughout has continued to push a unique selection of varied genres, all with a cohesive centre. Whether Techno, DnB, Drone, Industrial, Acid, Electro, EBM, Metal, Breakbeat or whatever else he has in his bag - a central vein of dark, heavy vibes persists.

Producer and host of Mantis Radio since 2007, his Darkfloor Sound show presents a mix of the upfront and brand new, with archival tracks of yesterday. You will hear some of the best music you've not heard before.

Metal and soul from Zeal & Ardor greet you from the off, before new blues ambient from Manchester's Rat Heart Ensemble starts a heads down percussive tech selection from Darkfloor for the April edition of their label show.
