Beneath The Forest Floor (Is A Balearic Breeze)

Pour une première invitation sur les ondes d’Ola, Simone Bauer sonna comme une évidence tant les influences et les énergies se mêlent. De son vrai nom Simone Giovannetti, il est l’une des figures de proue de cette musique plus lente, contemplative et organique. 
Une première heure de set guidé par Simone Bauer et Patience qui s’occupe de fermer la marche. Bonne écoute !

We are over the moon to launch this season of Introspective Electronics’ Podcast Series with this special journey dreamed up by the mighty sonic enchantress and the soul behind Deep Mind Music - Sybil. Her presence on the local music scene and far far beyond has been steadily rising and a fiercely inspiring one, gracefully oscillating between dancefloors and deep listening spaces 💫

The mix you are listening to now is a spine-tingling presence drifting several feet off the ground, rolling like mist over still dark waters at dusk. Overheard conversations, snapshots from dreams. Tingling bells rushing across fields. A thread of thick and thin and light and dark dronescapes that sometimes hide peculiar tunes weaved by psychedelic guitars and electronics ✨🌚✨

We would also like to take this opportunity to introduce Marco Maldarella's vivid new visions that will take us through the upcoming year of Introspective Electronics. It is all starting with this showstopper of an artwork that is truly a sight to behold 🐍 

Thank you everyone for joining us on this adventure so far. We are looking forward to what comes next 💛

Podcast Series 20 | Sybil

"From a remote region, the stream embarks on a journey of interconnectedness. Of life and nature, of peace and the whispering of the wind through the trees. Percussions from afar, the temple begins the ceremony. The Karakorum mountains are invoked for a good harvest this year. The water from the snow melt comes down clear and brave, ready to continue its journey without frontiers."

Note:

"First mix of Sindh where he show us some of his recent influences, travelling from peacefull ambient to more psychedelic landscapes"

 "Sindh" (@sindh) refers to the ancient name of the indus river, taking source in Tibet and flowing through India to Pakistan. It tries to connect space and jungle and focuses on delivering  experiences that will have no genre borders.  -- He has released on @idorecords and @lowless-music.

HOCast #104 - Sindh

We probably don't need to tell you who Deadbeat is. (He even did a previous RA Podcast for us, all the way back in 2007.) But if you need a refresher, he's one of the most important and revered artists in dub techno. The Canadian artist came up in the Montreal scene alongside other trailblazers like Akufen and other Canadians (think Cobblestone Jazz, Mathew Jonson, Wagon Repair, etc). His early records for ~scape are some of the most classic and influential minimal there ever was, but dub is always at the heart of his work, and runs in the veins of BLKRTZ, the prolific label he runs himself.

Sa Pa, on the other hand, sits somewhere in the ambient zone. Originally from Adelaide, he's found a powerful creative sparring partner in Deadbeat. The two released their first album together, The Mountain, earlier this year. It's the 50th release on BLKRTZ and maybe one of the most monumental records in either artist's catalogue, a triple-LP that harks back to the hypnotic, plink-plonk days of yore with the strong cross-genre underpinning that marks Deadbeat's work these days, and plenty of lovely atmospheric wiggles.

The duo's lengthy RA Podcast, taken from two different recordings at their Absurd Dub Lustre party in Berlin, mirrors the LP's sound, weaving through tracks new and old. It's full of warm, dubby vibrations and smooth transitions.

Absurd Lustre (After Fischerle)

With studied and meticulous elegance, Sa Pa summons a Dionysean tempest, a writ to harness the coming storm. It's humbling to share this and more so to listen, a fervent tour de force recorded live at Paral·lel Festival, a call to convergence under the boundless Catalonian sky.

Sure Thing Mix 116: Sa Pa

A very laidback session recorded live at DDR complex

Space Shepherd Radio Show 17/01/2023 w/ Al Blayney on Dublin Digital Radio

For the third installment of our podcast series, we welcome Australian-born Berlin-based dj, producer, and soundscape artist Sa Pa. With a name referencing northern Vietnam's high, foggy mountains, expect a live recorded podcast from our May party that resembles the northern parts of Vietnam: Hazy, clear and unclear, mystic, and at times pushing forward, finding directions, this podcast feels like a (musical) journey of ambient soundscapes, dub, and pitched down that leaves one to reach the higher spheres (of Vietnam).

Sa Pa - NLDMIX 003

Our latest mix is a 3.5hr recording from  https://soundcloud.com/absurdlustre founder and Astral Industries artist https://soundcloud.com/sapaofficial, recorded at a recent sleep in event, from 2am until 5.30am. Read more about the mix and words from Sa Pa: http://asip.me/isolatedmix125

Joining us on our next podcast is Mysteries of the Deep founder Grant Aaron, who began the New York-based project in 2011 as a podcast and event series for ambient and experimental music, hosting the likes of Neel and Patrick Russell, before expanding it to a label in 2017. In true form Grant has provided us with a mostly-ambient mix, an hour which evolves patiently and profoundly over its course. Grant covers grand territory with his selections, dealing in sparse instrumentation, sweeping drones, and pared-down percussion, weaving these elements into a moving and cohesive whole. Dive in now, or save this one to accompany you on an upcoming journey. It’s worth the wait.

XLR8R Podcast 601: Sa Pa

For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Welcome back avid listeners and long time cohorts, I welcome the old and new to a world yet undiscovered, nor will it ever be. This transmission comes courtesy of the enigma, Barbie Gault. To be honest I’m not even sure she exists, one day a demo landed in my inbox that showed a lot of promise, then closely followed by an idea that she do a mix for the series, who am i to say no? no risk, no reward right? well this time it paid off. 

The mix phenomenal, straight up. An elongated emotional roller coaster ride. Pure indulgence in every form, stretching genre’s and idea’s alike. The perfect culmination of exactly what FHUO is about. An honest self portrait, sometimes  tastefully awkward, some times completely composed and in charge but all the time remaining completely under the spell. I liken the mix to floating down a stream, the current quickens to a pace then fades to perfect stillness but all in the same you are continuously floating on a beautiful warm spring afternoon. So i invite you to listen to this mix at least 3 times and make up your own mind. 

Until next time. 

treat others well, some deserve it.

Hailing from Naples and well-known as one half of @naturalelectronicsystem, Antonio Giova is a selector and producer of unparalleled talent and vision. Over the course of a career spanning over 1.5 decades, and which includes a tight relationship with the esteemed record label @tikitarec, a collaboration with @neel, and key performances at festivals such as Labyrinth (@mindgameslaby), @wakinglifeportugal and @parallelfestival, Antonio has developed a unique sense of texture, atmosphere and narrative which glows deeply in both his productions and his mixes.

Based on his set from our Winter Edition party at ://about.blank in late-February 2020, Antonio let his intuition guide him with this Patterns of Perception 60. The outcome is somehow both raw and seamless, a vignette of ethereal proportions: eternal and infinite, timeless and dimensionless.
