SummersRadio™ 500th Post!!! Classic! Model 500 - 'Neptune' Today we hit a milestone - our 500th post - and in less than a year - hoo-ray!! It seems fitting to begin the celebration with a classic - so a song featuring the 'Godfather Of Techno' is apt. Model 500 is a pseudonym for Juan Atkins - who is largely credited as the originator of techno - Detroit techno in particular - along with Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson.
'Neptune' is the third song on the five track 'Sonic Sunset' EP - which was released in 1994 on the legendary Belgian label R & S Records - and it's nothing short of an incredible piece of music that sounds just as amazing today.
This is a great weekend for concerts in Vancouver - last night Germany's techno/ minimal/ tech house duo Booka Shade (who've also recorded on the R & S label) performed an excellent live show at 560 - tonight I'm off to SHAHdj's 4th Anniversary party featuring Blu Mar Ten at the Red Room - and tomorrow synth pop pioneers the Human League are at the Rickshaw! So it's a busy weekend then, but I will post more tunes to celebrate our 500th post soon.
So join us in celebrating SummerRadio™'s exploits across Earth - and beyond :) - this is Model 500's 'Neptune'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Blu Mar Ten!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Blu Mar Ten - 'Five Summers' My apologies for the lack of posts in recent days, but I've just returned from a long weekend spent at the Bass Coast Music Festival! I'm exhausted and completely covered in mosquito bites, but it was a great time! This is one song that stood out when played by SHAHdj's Kir Mokum on the main stage on Sunday night. The sun was just setting and everything seemed just right!
Blu Marten began as a London duo consisting of founding members Leo Wyndham and Chris Marigold that formed in the 'big bang of drum & bass' in 1995. Since then they've embraced many genres including downtempo, house, breaks, techno and leftfield. In 2004 they became a trio with the addition of Michael Tognarelli, and they're set to release their fourth studio album later this year. This is their latest single called 'Five Summers'... Enjoy!
