Grab the latest episode of the MTC Radio Podcast, Melbournes favourite Monday night techno show on Kiss fm between the hours of 8-9.30pm. Sam and Craig kick off the recording with a deep and dark mix from Craig, including tracks by Discowboys and Solomon among others. Sam takes over for the middle section of the show with a deep and druggy mix, kicking off with Dandy Jack and the junction SM and then the boys finish up with a brief mix-up before Sam’s laptop gives in and cuts the episode short.

But despite the slightly shorter show, episode 27 still stacks up as one of the better shows from the MTC lads, with minimal talking and maximum mixing.
