Our second Edition of the Striped Series comes from our friend, the lovely @einfachnora. 

Some words from Nora about how she fell in love with downtempo (english below):

"Ich hab mich eigentlich direkt bei meinen ersten Open airs und Clubbesuchen in Halle in downtempo verliebt, vorallem weil ich die Musik am meisten fühle. Und am meisten geprägt hat mich definitiv Timon (kueksen), der mir das auflegen beigebracht hat und ohne den ich wahrscheinlich nie zu diesen wundervollen Erfahrungen als DJ gekommen wäre. 

Also hier nochmal ein ganz großes Dankeschön voller liebe an kueksen, dessen musikalisches Talent und Leidenschaft mich bis heute beim Musikmachen prägt und beeinflusst. Und natürlich haben mich auch die Menschen geprägt, die mich von Anfang supported haben, sei es als stetige tänzer*innen vor mir oder die mir die Gelegenheiten geben, zu spielen und so als Musikerin und Mensch zu wachsen."

"I actually fell in love with downtempo right away at my first open airs and club visits in Halle, mainly because I feel the music the most. And most of all I was influenced by Timon (kueksen), who taught me how to DJ and without whom I probably would never have had these wonderful experiences as a DJ. Thanks a lot!" 

Enjoy listening and thank you so much Nora for this joyful ride! <3

Striped #2 - Nφra

Atonom presents:
Büsis. Brunch. Bass. Bounce. Banane.

Ein Frühstücksbuffet. 

Wo die Gestrigen auf die Heutigen treffen, um gemeinsam in den neuen Tag zu starten. 

A collection of bluesy guitar riffs, smooth vocals, wiggly noises, warm melodies, and songlike structures on a pushing 105bpm beat.

A groovy breakfast, served well in combination with wonderful people and maybe even the first rays of light, as they crawl from somewhere beyond the horizon right back into our body & soul.

Die Dampflok vom Cuddlepuddle zurück auf den Tanzflur. 

Als Wiedereinstieg nach der Stille oder auch einfach so mal zwischendurch.

Na dann.... Sonnenbrillen aufgesetzt und gute Fahrt!

"Lazy hours of bright days, the sea lies shimmering with a salty glow. It softly folds into blue waves, breathing calmly and taking its time. Nothing presses here, no obligations, no struggles – just the endless play of light and waves. Sun-dust in every pore, warm air that dissipates. Palms cast patterns on the skin, thoughts drift like boats in the wind. Life dances everywhere, but very quietly – as if it wishes to disturb no one. And somewhere, in the shadow of a straw hat, music shimmers through the heat. Expansive spaces, deep sounds, melodies that desire nothing but to remain. Golden glasses clink briefly, laughter echoes back, then silence once more. Perhaps it rains elsewhere, perhaps a storm rages, perhaps it’s noisy. Here it is now – and that is enough. And from way back there a breeze blows, carrying sounds over, caressing the day. True to the motto: Aspetta e vedrai."

“Träge Stunden heller Tage, salzig schimmernd liegt das Meer. Zieht sich weich in blauen Falten, atmet ruhig und nimmt sich Zeit. Nichts drängt hier, kein Müssen, kein Mühen – nur das endlose Spiel von Licht und Wellen.
Sonnenstaub in jeder Pore, warme Luft, die sich verliert. Palmen werfen Muster auf die Haut, Gedanken treiben wie Boote im Wind. Überall tanzt das Leben, aber ganz leise – als wolle es niemanden stören.
Und irgendwo, im Schatten eines Strohhuts, flimmert Musik durch die Hitze. Weite Flächen, tiefe Klänge, Melodien, die nichts wollen außer bleiben. Goldne Gläser klirren kurz, ein Lachen hallt zurück, dann wieder Stille.
Anderswo regnet’s vielleicht, vielleicht tobt ein Sturm, vielleicht ist’s laut. Hier ist es jetzt – und das reicht. Und von ganz dort hinten weht eine Brise, trägt Klänge herüber, streichelt den Tag. Getreu dem Motto: Aspetta e vedrai."

Ein Tauchgang ins bunte Klangriff von fruttidimarie https://soundcloud.com/fruttidimarie. 🌞🦐🌊

Mitten im August, wenn die Luft flirrt und die Gedanken langsam schmelzen, schnappen wir uns die Schwimmreifen, klemmen uns die Sonnenbrille ins Haar und hüpfen kopfüber in die leuchtende Unterwasserwelt.

Hier unten wachsen die Früchte des Tarab-Baums in den wildesten Farben –manchmal sauer, manchmal süß, aber immer mit einem kleinen Twist.
Wie ein karibischer Fruchtcocktail mit Sprudelwasser, Muschelschnickschnack und einem Schuss Bubblebass - jeder Track ein anderes Wassertier im Ravemodus! 

Und mitten auf dem Dancefloor: ein kleiner Shrimp mit Glitzerschale und Funk in den Fühlern. 🦐 Bounce de Crevette? Das ist sein Signature Move. Wir können nicht wiederstehen und zuckeln sofort mit durchs knallige Korallenriff. 

Also: Auf die Flossen, fertig, bounce! 🐚🫧🌴
Danke, fruttidimarie für diesen quirligen Sommermix zum Versinken, Abheben und Weiterträumen!

FRUITCAST # 90 | fruttidimarie | Bounce de Crevette

Claus Fussek-Garbicz 2025 -Winebar

“Sie berührt mich” is a vulnerable, downtempo journey co-produced by @elias-dore and @anni-yu. Written by Anni after an unexpected encounter in the stillness of the night, the track captures the raw emotions of being drawn into a new connection, despite having promised herself to focus on friendships after a long relationship. Elias, based in Berlin, wrapped Anni’s heartfelt piano and vocals in his signature soft electronic soundscapes, creating a seamless blend of intimacy and emotional depth.
Together, Elias and Anni crafted something deeply personal, where honest lyrics meet atmospheric textures, making “Sie berührt mich” a reflection of love, vulnerability, and the delicate nature of human connection.

Elias Doré & Anni Yu - Sie berührt mich (Instrumental)

Slow on Water 2025 @ Lago Maggiore

A surge of movement where each spark breathes with radiant force, rising and dissolving in waves of pure momentum. The pulse expands uncontrollably, yet retains a beautiful precision, a balance between chaos and clarity. Energy becomes language: fluid, infinite, and alive in all directions.

Moonveil

From a series of (almost) daily ocean glimpses. The music is composed to a video of the sea (photons captured fresh every day). You can experience the full video version here: https://youtu.be/CyHju2h5bNc

A little backgound on what brings me to be here...

My musical life started in the disciplined but narrow world of classical music. In my teens I had several powerful group musical experiences that looking back I would class as genuine peak experiences, and these lit a fire in me, setting my direction for the next 15 years.

I was lucky enough to study and train at the Royal College of Music in London before doing a masters in jazz composition and performance, after which I stepped out into the world as a freelance musician. However, after around 10 years I had lost the meaning, enjoyment and purpose that had initially carried me into the profession, and I knew I had to stop. From one day to the next I put my life as a musician down and went an entirely different professional path. But I knew that music would come back to me when the time was right. Another decade or so later - with a whole lot of life in between - here I am.

Most of the music I play is in ceremonial, shamanic and ritualistic contexts, but there is something about the sacred chaos of raves, parties and festivals that I experience as one of the highest forms of collective beauty. It is into these spaces that I offer the music that I share here.

Thank you for being here, and for taking the time to read this. And feel free to get in touch ❤︎
