Warp Records birthday party is now on air

Warp Records took over both of NTS Radio's live streams today for 100 hours of broadcasts marking the label's 30th anniversary. Quite a treasure is on schedule: a "mysterious" two-hour mix by Boards Of Canada, recording of Aphex Twin's 2012 performance at London's Barbican Hall, Brian Eno's collaboration with protest group Extinction Rebellion, previously unheard music from Autechre, Kelela, Lorenzo Senni, Hudson Mohawke, Flying Lotus will contribute a new mix, Oneohtrix Point Never and Kelly Moran will present full-length live sets. Evian Christ, Squarepusher and Leila will be in the NTS studio for live sets, Death Grips will present an "exclusive, extended piece", and Ryuichi Sakamoto and Adrian Sherwood will each showcase a mix. Warp is on NTS' air until Sunday (June 23) at 23.59 BST.
