A long waited return finds my dusty boots back in the studio!

Today we explore the journey of the cowboy, the vagabond, the traveller as embodied in the year f the horse (2026!) This firehorse brings momentum, change, movement and drive to life as it has already in mine.

I share with you songs that aided me on my own journey into the new year and obligatory commentary on my travels abroad. I have missed you dear listeners, and I hope you're ready for another year of great tunes from across the cosmos!

About this program

Adorning the early hours of 4-6 am, Opium Audia explores thematic and contextual ties of the underground with a hauntological mix of 80s/90s house, electronic, jungle, post-punk, grunge rock, bossa samba and ambient avant pop. Sounds like a memory, feels like a dream. Maybe it was never real.
