Dead Inside Podcasts Episode 14: O Yuki Conjugate
In this episode of Dead Inside Podcasts, we are extremely thrilled and privileged to have onboard with us O Yuki Conjugate, the musical group based out of UK. Consisting of the original members Roger Horberry and Andrew Hulme, O Yuki Conjugate was formed in 1982 in the rural mining wastelands of Nottinghamshire, producing what they term as “dirty ambient” - which also sums up their fractious attitude to modern easy listening.
Since the 80s, O Yuki Conjugate has undergone rounds of incarnation based around Horberry and Hulme. They are currently in their fourth incarnation - previous members include Clare Elliot, Tim Horberry, Malcolm McGeorge, Dan Mudford, Pete Woodhead and Rob Jenkins, with Joe Gardiner contributing sax.
Since their formation, O Yuki Conjugate has been one of the more eclectic groups out there. With their previous releases such as Undercurrents (In Dark Water) channelling a mythical forest energy with sparse drums in the distance and water like textures accompanied with animal-like howls to their more recent meditative like experience with A Tension of Opposites Vol 1 & 2. O Yuki Conjugate seeks to constantly reinvent themselves, exploring new realms of sound with each new project. They are ever evolving and each upcoming project always comes as a surprise to listeners that have been following them.
For this month’s episode, O Yuki Conjugate presents a form of “dystopian disquiet”, mixing in tracks from the likes of Hildur Gudnadottir and Tim Hecker to even composing all new unreleased music solely for this mix. Titled “An Hour of Dystopian Disquiet”, this mix is a peek into the world of O Yuki Conjugate and what is to come.
