From co-founding Crimes Of The Future with Scott Fraser to working alongside Andrew Weatherall as part of The Asphodells among countless projects, Timothy J. Fairplay has consistently pushed boundaries with his distinctive sound. His contributions span cosmic funk, krautrock, proto-industrial, and early techno and house, defining a multifaceted career. Fairplay’s discography includes standout releases on Pinkman, Knekelhuis, Höga Nord, Emotional Response, and his own Dungeon Module imprint.
For Orb Podcast‘s latest episode, Timothy J. Fairplay selects material from artists he deeply admires alongside his own recent works. Drawing inspiration from old-school Chicago and Detroit house records from the ‘80s and ‘90s—while steering clear of the often-overplayed acid sound—he crafts a playful yet hard-hitting collection. House mingles seamlessly with wave and minimal industrial, delivering a set that’s as exploratory as it is impactful.
