Yes, it’s true. The Gated Podcast has awoken from its long, dignified slumber, a period of reflection, spiritual realignment, and mild administrative chaos. What better way to re-emerge than with the steady hand and impeccable taste of Andy Green, the Head Gardener at Verdant Recordings.
An old head who DJs a little, goes out too much, and curates Verdant Recordings, Andy has long championed deep, diverse sounds without the faintest nod to trend or genre. That is precisely how we prefer things.
He first joined us some moons ago, and now returns with a mix that is equal parts soil, soul, and subterranean hypnosis, the kind of thing that makes you question whether sunlight was ever really necessary.

Kettle on. Phone off. Allow Andy Green to guide you somewhere deep, warm, and possibly in breach of local zoning laws. It feels very good to be back.

Five tracks of future electro-funk from Spanish DJ and producer Lefrenk, who makes his Gated debut.
Across five expertly warped tracks, the EP pulls from 80s Balearic sunsets, fried breakbeats, warehouse-scented house music, and electro that’s been lightly basted in funk and grilled over a lovely DAW.
‘Brainstorm’ kicks off with pummelling beats then goes widescreen, like a sci-fi epic barging into your set uninvited but winning you over immediately. It’s bold, abstractly beautiful, and absolutely means business.
‘Clocks’ loops squelchy bass and a twinkling melody that develops masterfully, intent on living in your head proudly — like a tenant who pays rent on time and doesn’t play the saxophone.
‘Funk Awake’ could soundtrack a very stylish chase scene between two people in vintage tracksuits.
‘Ocaso’ slows it down a little — warm and woozy, but with snappy, electrified beats holding it up like a drunk at a bar vying for the bartender’s attention.
Rounding things off, ‘Relative Point’ floats somewhere between VHS nostalgia and late-night contemplation, where the insistent beat and bass hold steady and the synths do the wandering.
GTD. Radio
