This episode of Belta is with Manchester-based artist Samuel Kerridge.

Musically, he takes a rather post-punk approach to techno, and has done for over a decade. What with becoming an integral part of Regis’s iconic Downwards imprint which marries broken techno with snarling metal-influenced punk, he’s also released seven EPs and five albums.

In this episode, we spoke about what Samuel likes to refer to as the 'no nonsense north', his hybrid DJ sets, authenticity in music and the importance of having a variety of outlets to prioritise yourself. There’s heaps more in there too; it’s a real packed episode.
