BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 27th June 2026

Feel focused with this concentration inducing, ambient mix curated by Manchester-based duo Space Afrika, featuring new releases from Dedekind Cut, Fauzia, Martina Bertoni and more.

Joshua Inyang and Joshua Reid, who are also an active part of the Manchester experimental music scene, have been playing together as Space Afrika for the past two decades, creating powerful and cinematic ambient soundscapes with a dub-techno flavour. With their latest album released in 2021, Honest Labour, Space Afrika opened the door to new collaborations with other artists including Blackhaine, Bianca Scout and LA Timpa.
