Soft Chroma is thrilled to announce the Chroma Podcast Series.

Kicking off we have one of the most exciting electronic artist in nowadays scene, Borgborg.

“BORGBORG is an electronic music producer and DJ based in Düsseldorf, Germany.
On her journey as a DJ she encounters various styles of electronic music, especially bouncy hard techno, harsh industrial, deconstructed hypnotic vibes and noisy drone soundscapes. 
Utilizing field recordings and experimental techniques, she explores the boundaries between sound and sex. Her current musical work is focused on a collaborative soundtrack for an interactive audio-visual radio play by morphing field recordings and vocals to fractals and polyrhythmic patterns. With her conceptual project duo Fractal Void, a mixture of electronic and classical composition are blended into artificial landscapes and unsettled futuristic elements. Both projects are intended to be played live.
She is a member of About Repetition e.V., a group of artists dedicated to the research of repetition through artistic means, collaborating with a wide range of other collectives across Europe.”

“i took your invitation as an opportunity to do something i hadn’t really done before in a podcast — play something a bit more dancefloor-oriented. i actually rarely play at this bpm range, and i thought it was interesting to explore that side.” lyon-based dj and producer minù jr leans into his techno influences from ghost warrior to dvs1 and wata igarashi to build a groove-filled, textural peak-time mix filled with warmth. 

minù jr is deeply embedded within the music scene in lyon. from being a resident of the collective and record label monochrome as well as ouroboros festival - two key outputs of the city’s low end psychedelia scene. as a producer, minù jr’s sound is nestled nicely within the slow/fast side of psychedelic music as he creates these deeply rhythmic wormholes to get lost in that are filled with dub and drum & bass influences such as the qabam ep on monochrome ~ a release i can’t get enough of. super inspired by his output and this movement that’s happening in lyon, i’m excited to have minù jr on the 909 series this week :)

Eora’s dub-techno tastemaker Command D and Naarm’s harmoniser of the emotive and abstract Zara combine for Gravity Reset, a collaborative four-tracker on Butter Sessions.

Both producers are equally nestled with love into Australia’s underground, with releases on beloved labels like Animalia and Pure Space. Command D also boasts refined live sets heaving in sub-bass, while Zara's celebrated for boundary-blurring productions and her Kinesis imprint championing the local scene. On Gravity Reset, they meet in lockstep, delivering trance-inducing offerings rooted in a shared love of rhythm, space and subtlety seeded with dub minimalism and introspective, tech-driven sound design.The titular track 'Gravity Reset' sets the tone with a deep, persistent kick, reverberated snares, and a low-end that twists and lifts. 'Cascadia' introduces pad warmth and light percussion, where laughter weaves into the mix, adding a human touch to the dub-soaked cut. '2Pulse' brings expressive congas and dubby psychedelia into dialogue with the wubs, before The Fog closes in a haze of phasing hats and musky bass.

A collaboration for the ages. What they mean when they say #deep.

Command D & Zara - Gravity Reset (BSD08)

Recorded live at R@B Forest Party in Oslo on May 3rd 2025

Marius Bø is a figure within the northern hemisphere of the electronic music landscape, his artistry is deeply rooted in a profound connection to nature's atmosphere and the communal spirit of open-air gatherings. As one of the co-founders of the Oslo-based collective Ute, Marius' musical journey finds its origins nestled amidst the Norwegian forests. It is here, between the trees and rustling leaves, that his sound took root, hosting and playing parties deep in the woods. Founded in 2017, the Ute label boasts a cult-like following for its approach to psychedelic trance music as well as long form downtempo and chill out sounds presented on sub labels Sinensis and Translusid. 

Marius’ sets can be seen as a concoction of psychedelic atmospherics, renowned for his extended sets, generating dynamic tensions and sublime releases that work both the body and mind. Mastering different tempos and moods of deep hypnosis, he deftly connects the dots between old school records and futuristic soundscapes. Whether it’s ambient, idm, trance or techno, the Ute label-head seamlessly blends the sounds with a captivating elegance. 
From hazy braindance to high-energy vibrations in mist-shrouded forests, balmy shores and dimly-lit basements, Marius navigates diverse settings with his distinctive musical style that takes a gentle yet firm grip on the soul. 

His unique approach has brought him to iconic venues such as Pawnshop, Bassiani, and Macadam, and to international festivals like Monument in the heart of Norway’s forest, Organik on a hidden peninsula in Taiwan and Outsider Festival, deep in the Australian bush. Whether in intimate clubs or verdant outdoor landscapes, Marius' music carries an organic and trippy spirit that transcends time and space.
