Lost Soul Enterprises w. R Gamble - guest Nihar

Show Description: “Dispatches from the NYC underground: left field electronics, raw live cuts, unreleased gems and other oddities selected by the Lost Soul Enterprises crew and extended family, this week featuring LSE founder R Gamble in the first half. The second half was selected and mixed by San Francisco based experimentalist, musician and sound designer Nihar.  

Nihar is a South-Asian American experimentalist, musician and sound designer based in San Francisco, CA. His work contributes to the modern re-invention of the "industrial music" category with in a non-eurocentric and consistently anti-capitalist framework. Utilizing a combination of generative, interactive and linear methods executed through a hybrid digital-analogue setup with modular hardware at its center ,Nihar often mixes the sounds and rhythms of the 21st century global supply chain with textures that evoke the dissociative, isolating and depressive effects of neo-liberal culture.

R Gamble is a producer, DJ, and performer based in New York City. Originally from Memphis, TN where he was reared on a strange delta concoction of garage synth-punk, low-fi rap and avant garde experimentation, in NYC he founded the party collective and label Lost Soul Enterprises in 2012. Today he continues to champion dark and weird sounds by DJing and performing live as a longtime resident of Good Room and The Lot Radio. R Gamble has released music on such labels as Mannequin, Public System Recordings, Primitive Languages, Black Lodge, Kraftjerkz, Sisters, Phormix, Fu.Me, Marguerite Records and KRI. He also makes retrofuturistic electro productions under the moniker Drakkar Noir, and is one half of industrial duo Fade Accompli along with Myn, and synth-pop duo Zeta Sect with Heidi Sabertooth.
