FACT Mix 194: Veronica Vasicka

Founder and beating heart of the Minimal Wave label, the New Yorker has for the past five years been engaged in a passionate mission to unearth forgotten gems of the late 70s and 80s DIY synth-pop boom, making available to modern listeners music that originally saw release only via absurdly limited cassette runs, if at all.

Her FACT mix gives you some idea of what to expect: a healthy dose of torrid European melancholia intermingled with joyous analogue boogie, bug-eyed disco jackers and downtown electro-funk. Enjoy.
