► Press
Als würde er lässig aus der Hüfte raus rund geschliffene Steine über die Oberfläche eines Waldsees hüpfen lassen, auf dem sich das Wolkenbild von sommerlichem Hochdruck-Wetter spiegelt: So natürlich, erdig und doch auch surreal und schwerelos klingen die Tracks, die Julian Schraven uns auf seiner Weird Feelings EP kredenzt. Das mächtige Konstrukt seiner Beats, Bässe und Rhythmen waltet mit minimalistischer Effizienz im Hintergrund und lässt damit ganz viel Platz für die wundersamen Gefühlsregungen und Sinnesverwirbelungen, die in Form von verschnörkelten Melodien und deepen, psychedlisch morphenden Klangstrukturen ihren Lauf nehmen. Timboletti erweist sich mit seinem feinperlig verpeilten Humor und seinem Hang zum Tiefgang als der perfekte Remixer für diese EP.

Julian Schraven - The Bitter Taste Minutes

These Granola sets were put together about ten years ago (maybe even more). I never shared them before, even though there are some great old-school classics in there. Hope you’ll enjoy them if you vibe with the same classics as I do <3

LF - Granola 2 (2010)

For the 59th edition of our podcast series, we welcome MoorIn (@moor_in), part of the Schleichend collective since last year! <3 

From the very first moments, this set unfolds with a slow yet powerful drive. Subtle, sophisticated layers meet bolder, more radiant elements, creating a dynamic tension that keeps you gently on edge.

There’s a hint of autumn in the air - mystical and reflective, echoing the transition from summer’s brightness to a more inward season. Still, light occasionally breaks through: playful moments and glimpses of warmth that balance the introspection. 

Each track feels alive, shaped by tiny details and fluid motion - with waveforms never really settling into a straight line. The groove remains hypnotic and graceful throughout, gradually deepening into darker tones and a cinematic finale where emotion and storytelling merge.

Thank you for this captivating journey, dearest Marvin! <3

Q&A

>>Wer bist du und woher kommst du?
Mein Name ist Marvin Wickert und bin 1991 in Hagen am Rande des Ruhrpotts geboren und dort aufgewachsen. Seit über zehn Jahren lebe ich nun in Stuttgart. Zusammen mit Kollektiven wie Waldtraut Lichter, dem Langeweile Kollektiv oder Schleichend organisiere ich eigene Partys – mal in Stuttgarter Off-Locations, mal in Clubs wie dem Sunny High, dem Kulturbunker oder auf Fridas Pier.

>>Wie kamst du zum Auflegen?
Vor rund 16 Jahren habe ich angefangen, im Butan Club in Wuppertal feiern zu gehen, wo Freunde von mir aufgelegt haben. Damals habe ich ihnen oft in Proberäumen über die Schulter geschaut. Für mich selbst habe ich das Auflegen allerdings erst vor circa 4 Jahren entdeckt als ich mir mein erstes Setup gekauft habe – und dabei schnell eine große Leidenschaft entwickelt.

>>Was hat dich für das Set inspiriert?
Seit letztem Jahr bin ich Teil von Schleichend. Ich liebe Downtempo, melodische Klänge und treibende Beats, die mich in einen tranceartigen Zustand versetzen. Diese Energie wollte ich in meinem Set einfangen und mit anderen teilen

Our downtempo is back! 

We are very happy to finally be able to present Kalitos & VBRTNS's Easy Tiger debut release. Their song ‘Regular Exercise’ reminds us of exactly the slow and powerful sound that inspired us to start releasing downtempo songs in the first place. 

But who should remix slow and powerful songs? That's right: GYRL and Katabtu. It's an honour for us to have them on board.

Folks, this release is something special. Enjoy!

chameleon #81 by moosen is a smooth and heartfelt take on the classic downtempo sound we all know and love. The mix flows with unhurried ease, as it layers soft rhythms and mellow textures into a cohesive whole. There’s a quiet intimacy in its pacing, where each transition feels natural and carefully placed. It’s the kind of set that lingers—comforting, reflective, and full of understated feeling.

mimikri & iorie - nostalgia

Somewhere between the kick and the delay — at 00:40 hrs, 108 BPM — my DJ-MacBook just froze.

Seven seconds of silence. Total blackout.
The crowd didn’t flinch. 
Someone laughed and shouted, “Ma che Tony!”

Next day I opened the session, found the gap, stitched the groove, dusted it clean.

Now it sounds right — tunes I truly feel.

The beauty of a simple editor cut. 

Enjoy and thanks to the wonderful crowd and - always in my heart - Kauz Zürich and crew!
