Welcome to Decomposed Radio Show 045, broadcasting from back here in Sheffield, UK! First up, apologies for being off air for a few weeks and not keeping up the fortnightly shows whilst away in Australia. Predictably it turned out to be a little tricky to get mixes and recordings together whilst based out of a tent in the outback! I'm happy to say though, that we're back on it now, and have some great plans, including some quality Antipodean talent that we discovered in Melbourne, and a mix of the amazing music from the iconic climbing film "Hard Grit."

Today's show is inspired by one of the labels that we re-stumbled across whilst researching and collecting the music from Hard Grit, the equally iconic "Platipus Records".

Platipus Records was the brainchild of artist and producer Simon Berry, and was a super popular and successful trance label throughout the 90's and well into the naughties.

The release "Platipus Archives Volume Three and Four" includes the track "Chrome" by Chromium, which Slackjaw film used to great effect in the bouldering segment of Hard Grit. Show 045 is a departure from the usual house and techno fayre on Decomposed Radio, and features some great trance tracks, all from that release.

The climbers amongst you will no doubt recognise the iconic track, as well as some serious anthems........
