Netil Radio Residency - An Ocean of ink in a single drop (Live + DJ Hybrid)

Hemi-sync ♾💞

New York-based DJ dreemseed pays homage to her recent stay in the UK. 

dreemseed grew up in Florida and made her way to Brooklyn over 10 years ago, becoming a staple in the city’s close-knit community. A co-curator of the brilliant down2earth mix series, we first discovered dreemseed through online mixes via some of our favourite platforms such as pipipi and The Lot Radio. With regular gigs at Nowadays, Bossa Nova Civic Club and Elsewhere, playing at nights such as pi2pi, SLINK and Incienso label showcases, dreemseed is a go-to for ethereal, trippy sets to lose yourself to whether it’s deep, introspective warm ups or hands-in-the-air bass excursions for those peak-time moments. 

Speaking about this mix, dreemseed says, "as the series is based in the UK and I had been based in the UK for roughly half the year, I thought I would let the mix be informed by the soundscape I've been coming into contact with over there. I've been in a darker mood, not like evil-wise, but just a bit more introspective and secretive. I think this is reflective of that state of mind."

Lights off, heads down. 😈

Untitled 909 Podcast 090: dreemseed

28.11.21 12pm -2pm netilradio blending live performance and djing for Episode 7 of An ocean of ink in a single drop: The Gateway Experience. The show is based around Dr Robert Monroe’s Hemi-sync technique for out of body experiences and astral projection. The show will follow the narration of a diary of my experiences exploring the technique, which involved specific exercises alongside audio files to synchronise both hemispheres of my brain, with the aim to facilitate out of body experiences; to say the outcome was wild was an understatement. It was part of a big CIA study recently declassified into the US government exploring consciousness expansion and remote viewing for espionage purposes, where they undertook extensive experiments using the technique.

Featuring the poem: The Rub written by Syd Hawes. Narrated by darker. Violin by Taro
Voice canon by darker.
Synths, field recordings, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, flute and composition by Aboutface.

°s is inspired by patterns in urban nature: language; behaviour; seasons, and along with the poem, explores the cyclical psychological peaks and troughs experienced during a pandemic. Live multi-instrumental improvisations apply the fibonacci sequence to create melodies and rhythms that mimic fractal patterns in nature, and are situated within binaural field recordings captured during essential travel in the first pandemic lockdown.

Composition, field recording, synths, flute and electric guitar by Aboutface. Section 1 of The Rub narrated by darker.

Nikolay Kozlov - February

Aboutface is back live on @Netilradio 12pm - 2pm (UK GMT +1) with his bi-montly live + Dj hybrid show ‘An Ocean of Ink in a Single Drop’.  EP 9, is a special collaborative performance called Qachuu Aloom (Seed is Kin), centered around a specially written poem courtesy of @duckett-1 , expertly and tenderly recited by darker. 

“We've always viewed our seed relatives as relatives and kin” - Tsosie-Peña (Santa Clara Pueblo Native American community). As when seeds thrown into a derelict industrial factory, slowly democratises the decaying steel, this episode explores how planting seeds, figuratively and literally, can be an act of resistance and solidarity, geoshaping the cinders of humanity into a new future and showing us cycles are ephemeral and change is inevitable. 

The amazing supporting animations in this artwork called ‘The Elusive Good Egg, are by @miloustella_art ’. Collaboration is key to building hope and new futures.

EP9 An Ocean Of Ink - Qachuu Aloom (seed is kin) Ft Duckett 27-3-22

The final episode of An Ocean of Ink in a Single drop EP10 - 物の哀れ Mono no Aware. Mono no aware describes the feelings of sympathy a person feels upon becoming aware of the fleeting,impermanent nature of life. Mono no aware suggests that impermanence should not just be accepted, but appreciated, often typified by the beauty of the cherry blossom (Sakura); the flower blooms intensely, yet only for a short period of time each year. As the flowers die and the petals fall, cherry blossoms line the streets like a layer of soft, pink snow, and are most beautiful when captured between the precipice of life and death.

We truly appreciate things when we accept they do not last forever.

Join me for live performances with guitar, flute , clarinet and electronics, conceptually selected music and 6 specially selected Matsuo Bashō Haikus, recorded in Japanese and English by Fumika Geary & darker.

EP10 An Ocean of Ink - Mono no aware (Live & Dj hybryd) recorded live on Netil Radio

DJ Healthy 'いつも一緒に' ⓜⓘⓧ ⓪③③

Aboutface is back live on Netilradio.com to present An Ocean of Ink season 2 episode 1 of – D3stiny: a surreal sonic narrative based on descriptions of dreams from the collective unconscious, using music selections stitched together with creative writing and live improvised music and sound design.  When the word ‘d3stiny’ is written lucidly during a dream, it initiates a pseudo-reality personalised game experience to fulfil the objectives and complete the game. However, the closer the dreamer comes to completing the game, the more they will start to identify the game as their waking reality, causing disruptions, side effects, and the blurring of all unconscious-conscious realities. This game experience is hosted by Dream Creator 17 (dark_e_r). Time to re-enter the manifold! ✨💤✨

an hour and half of deeply moving, wildly tender mix by @syberkid :')

o: how have you been sleeping lately?
s: unpredictably. sometimes i sleep and wake up with the hazy memory of a glorious adventure, other days I wake with the horror of a nightmare clinging to my subconscious, and sometimes I can’t sleep at all...

o: are you a daydreamer or night swimmer?
s: always both ~ swimming in the daydreams, dreaming in the night swims.

o: where do you go to dream?
s: music is my portal to the dreamland. drone for the deepest cerebral dissolution into the realm of the imagination, something more energetic or colourful if I want to fly through the sky.

o: what was the last thing you heard that moved you?
s: the rustling leaves of trees in the wind, and birds calling to each other on a walk this morning.

o: have you ever cried on the dance floor?
s: yes, though not often, I’m more of “cry on the inside” dancer. 
though, the first time i remember actually crying on the dance floor was the first time i heard claro intelecto’s ‘peace of mind’ in 2013 i think… it was in my head for weeks afterwards https://youtu.be/m0-iideGM_k

o: where did you record this mix? 
s: in my living room, with my favourite cedar incense burning (i burn this every time I record a mix, a little ritual which always brings me to the right zone).

o: what drew you to the sounds?
s: you my bb <3 
this mix is my interpretation of all our beautiful sobcore listening sessions in your room after nights out, our shared love of soft emotional music, and how that translates into my sound. it’s sobcore x deep mind music, a journey for deep feelings, philosophical chats, cosy cuddles and imaginal drifting ~

o: what are you looking forward to the most this year?
s: i am most excited for the summer months to finally arrive, so I can once again frolic with friends in nature, listening to music outside 🤸🌲🌞
