operator staff picks: the big fire in la (selected by ofra)
‘My October staff pick will be Hunter Complex’s show: The Big Fire In LA. The mix is a combination of some old and new tracks with the synth as a Protagonist. When I listened to this show it was exactly the right soundtrack for my mood! It also fits perfectly in my favorite season. It’s Autumn in 1985.’
