Blasted and cutting sounds immersed in dark ambiances characterize the mixes of Halba, embodiments of his vision focused on society's decay and its consequent uncertain future.
Chaos, despair, and distress are some of the feelings that the artist tries to convey on his Podcasts, a result of depth research of unconventional audio material with a huge impact for the listener.

@halbaofficial

Halba wypełnia swoje mixy powalającymi i poszarpanymi dźwiękami zanurzonymi w mrocznej atmosferze,  które przekazują jego wizję na rozpad społeczeństwa i wynikającej z niego niepewnej przyszłości. Chaos, rozpacz i niepokój to niektóre z uczuć, które artysta stara się przekazać w swoich podcastach, jako wynik dogłębnych badań nad niekonwencjonalnym materiałem dźwiękowym, mającym ogromny wpływ na słuchacza.

Valencianisch-deutscher Meteorit By CURVE X

Italian Audio / Visual artist Camilla Pisani joins us with her new album "Phant[as]". Imagined as a lucid nightmare, fuelled by her various inner struggles, it is a trip into the depths of imagination. The project is inspired by Phantasmagoria, a form of theatre that was most popular in Paris in the 18th century, in which images of skeletons, demons and ghosts were projected onto walls and/or sheets. During these performances, there was a rapid succession of lights, smoke, illusions, ghosts and spectres that deceived and amazed the audience.

The album then, revolves around the concept of "illusion" to be understood as a succession of images, sounds, colours, objects, actions that vividly affect the senses and imagination showing unreal and intangible figures, but still visible and paralysing, just like our fears are. In fact, each track deals with my different turmoils, negative thoughts that have conditioned the last few years of her life and describe uneasy conditions shared by most of my peers (toxic relationships; job insecurity and exploitation; immateriality of the future, translated into frustration, exhaustion/desperation, claustrophobia and a desire to escape; anguish, panic and a sense of powerlessness towards nature and disease).

The project is presented as a cathartic experience in which she exorcises her mental ghosts and confronts, challenges with the powerful and persuasive weapon that is sound, composed of obsessive rhythms and evanescent atmospheres. Finally, the reference to the Magic Lanterns is linked to her research in the field of audiovisuals, since they were the first performances in which an attempt was made, through the combination of motion graphics, light games and sound, to obtain greater sensorial and emotional involvement with the public.

The mix transitions to the tension-filled "Ambulance Chase" by Ben Salisbury & Geoff Barrow, providing an adrenaline rush. Rajna's "Black Tears (edit)" combines emotional vocals with ambient textures, while The Allegorist's own track, "Through The Forest” from her 5th album TEKHENU, captivates with its enigmatic allure.

The Allegorist returns with her own track “Breath," which is part of the compilation “Quantized Realities’ out via Errorgrid Records in May 2023, that combines pulsating melodies with ethereal vocals. Synthmonk's "Distorted Digits”, from the same compilation, delves into distorted electronic soundscapes, leading to The Allegorist's "Whispers Of The Wind,” the main track on her fifth album TEKHENU out via her own imprint Awaken Chronicles, an evocative and atmospheric piece.

The mix concludes with "Anda Þinn Guð" by Högni, featuring Hatis Noit, leaving listeners in awe of the spiritual and otherworldly journey they have experienced. 

The Allegorist's mix for Cashmere Radio Berlin is a testament to the power of dark, electronic, and experimental music, inviting listeners to embrace the unknown and explore the depths of their imagination.

poem by Imam al-Shafi’i


دع الأيام تفعل ما تشاء *** وطب نفسا إذا حكم القضاء
ولا تجزع لحادثة الليالي *** فما لحوادث الدنيا بقاء
وكن رجلا على الأهوال جلدا *** وشيمتك السماحة والوفاء
وإن كثرت عيوبك في البرايا *** وسرك أن يكون لها غطاء
يغطى بالسماحة كل عيب *** وكم عيب يغطيه السخاء
ولا حزن يدوم ولا سرور *** ولا بؤس عليك ولا رخاء
ولا ترج السماحة من بخيل *** فما في النار للظمآن ماء
ورزقك ليس ينقصه التأني *** وليس يزيد في الرزق العناء
إذا ما كنت ذا قلب قنوع *** فأنت ومالك الدنيا سواء
ومن نزلت بساحته المنايا *** فلا أرض تقيه ولا سماء
وأرض الله واسعة ولكن *** إذا نزل القضا ضاق الفضاء
دع الأيام تغدر كل حين *** ولا يغني عن الموت الدواء

Let days go forth and do as they please
And remain firm when settled is the Decree

Don’t be afraid of what happens by night
For the affairs of this world are not to last

And be a man, strong in the face of calamities
And let your nature be that of kindness and honesty

If your faults become too much in front of the people
And you wish that they were to be concealed,

Then know that kindness covers all faults
And how many faults are kept hidden by kindness!

No sadness lasts forever, nor any happiness
And you shall not remain in poverty, or any luxury

Generosity cannot be hoped from the miserly
For no water exists in the Fire for the thirsty

Your provision will not be decreased due to life’s delays
And it cannot be increased due to your haste

If, in your heart, you possess contentment
Then you and those who possess the world are equal

And for him upon whose horizon death descends,
No earth can offer him protection, nor any sky

Indeed, the earth of Allah is certainly vast
But if decree descends, then the world constricts

Let days be the ones that betray you at all times
For no cure can avail a person of death
