    Hereby a short bio about Rob Booth and Electronic Explorations for those who don’t know him yet.

    Rob Booth, born in January 1978, Cheltenham, UK but currently living in Ambleside was never keen on the academic side of school, preferring to concentrate on more creative areas such as art, graphic design and of course music.

    He soon became known as the guy to go to if you were after the latest music, with “The Raw and The Cooked” by Fine Young Cannibals and Madonna’s “Like a Prayer” among his first purchases – 10 year olds can be excused a lot of things!

    Then, one night in 1997, everything turned on its head. A late night/early morning radio show began on Radio 1, known simply as the ‘Breezeblock’ and hosted by a forward-thinking, enthusiastic and driven young lady named Mary Anne Hobbs.

    Over the next 30 months Rob stayed up each and every week recording and playing back the shows, discovering new types of music, clubs and scenes that shaped his musical tastes and cemented his love of all things electronic.

    On a whim, Rob decided to email Mary Anne Hobbs, and soon after he and Mary were in regular contact. Work at Breezeblock HQ soon followed and Rob got the opportunity to learn first-hand what it took to make the radio show that he’d followed so religiously for all those years.

    Now the time has come for Rob to go a step further and start his own show. Electronic Explorations is a weekly 90 minute Download / Podcast show which promises totally exclusive mixes from the cream of the electronic world. Focused on genre’s such as  dubstep, minimal electronica, breakcore, techno and anything else that’s pushing the boundaries of electronic music.

    I’ve selected some of my favorite shows below but there is a lot more interesting stuff to listen and download on electronicexplorations.org.

    Item 9 is a collaboration between DJ Alias and Duba Fett. After months of talking about collaborating the two met up to throw together this mix. These are a lot of their favorite dub tracks over the last year or so. The Bees Knees is their first set and as a fellow DJ I have to so say they did a pretty good job mixing 36 tracks into these 90 minutes. Worth checking out.
