Eastern Daze #7 Atavist Special

On this episode of our Eastern Daze show, we host a special mix by Nikola Vitkovic, a musician and sonic activist based in Belgrade. As a musician he’s been involved in several projects over the decades. He’s also released a compilation of 90s outsider music from Serbia on his now-defunct label NAUK. The mix you’re about to hear, an Atavist special inspired by his radio shows on Popskotch Radio, features exclusive material from live sessions, and atavistic music in general: dull, primitive and rude industrial, power catatronics and monotony, Without traces of techno, ambient or noise, without placing importance on style, origin, context, genre, tradition or ideology. Several atavistic bands – mostly from Belgrade – have contributed their exclusive “primitive” recordings to the show, and this podcast contains some of their excerpts. There are also some hard to find gems from Serbia in the mix (more info in the tracklist)
