Verboten Transmissions arrive from a future New York, a dystopian police state littered with surveillance cameras and urban decay. Musical expression, dancing, free thought, and fun of any kind are strictly forbidden. Luckily, Verboten's freedom fighters smuggle out pirated transmissions from the underground: exclusive live and studio sets from the world's best techno and house DJs, beamed straight into the brains of all you hipsters, freaks, and party girls. Join the underground at VerbotenNewYork.com.

We've taken over the frequency of the popular flawlessSound podcast, no need to readjust your signal. All 5 years and 50 episodes of theflawlessSound will still be available via the archive below, but for the most up to date Transmissions going forward, be sure to subscribe on iTunes, SoundCloud and YouTube.
