Angus Andrew of Liars curated October’s edition of our monthly #MuteMixtape:

“I began this mix with some of my favourite Mute artists from the past and connected them with producers from the present who I think embody a similar fearless exploration. So, alongside groundbreakers like DAF and Fad Gadget you’ll find recent releases from Grischa Lichtenberger, Aaron Dilloway and Lucrecia Dalt.

I love listening to an artist like Angela Conway whose work with Wire as A.C.Marias was from 40 years ago but sounds so incredibly en vogue today.

Plus ça change!”
