Bside Incoming: Heléna Star

​​Bside Incoming: Heléna Star This episode invites us into the record bag of a rising ‘Star’ in the UK’s House and Techno scene. You can find her spreading the love for dance music across London, at festivals, internationally, and weekly on her Foundation FM residency. It’s Helena Star. Helena is certainly humble about the quantity of vinyl in her possession, but we’re sure we’ve been given an insight into the foundation of an almighty collection from the larger than life London DJ. The passion and knowledge for the music she owns is as infectious as every selection, as we take a journey through the music that brings her joy; from the relaxing home-listening tracks to the irresistible energy of those more often heard in the early hours; spanning the whole history House and Techno, from the raw genre defining beats, to the fresh tracks of emerging record labels. Enjoy!

Om Podcasten

Bside podcasts DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records. We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side: a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors. An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between. Music is for sharing. 'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
