dr0wng. guest mix + new music from FLAVA D and BABY T on this ABSTRACT SCIENCE podcast, focused on women + non-binary artists in electronic music. BILL BEARDEN aka WHOA-B mixes drum n’ bass for the first hour, with selections loosely inspired by Duncan Winslow’s “Women in Drum & Bass: 20 Producers you NEED to know”. For the second hour, special guest dr0wng, delivers a low-slung mix of grime, dubstep, deconstructed club + soundcloud rap. dr0wng aka RIGLOW has been a fixture in the Chicago bass music scene since 2011. This podcast was intended to be released in late March, but was delayed because of technical issues with our website, now redesigned. [aired 19 March 2020 on WLUW 88.7FM CHICAGO]
