We have now arrived to the third chapter in our successful downbeat and chill-out series.
Eleven exquisite tunes selected by swedish electronic music composer Magnus Birgersson, more known as Solar Fields. His first album 'Reflective Frequencies' was released 2001 on french label Ultimae. Today Magnus has released five full length albums and is a well established name in the ambient music scene.

First out is James Murray from London, UK with 'Last man in the World'. James is working as a freelance composer, producer and sound designer and is currently finishing his debut album which will be released on Ultimae. Second is newcomer Amos from Upplands Vaesby near Stockholm Sweden, presenting his jazzy ambient track 'Street Lights'. Swedish producer I Awake is next with his wonderful 'Life Cipher', followed by Gothenburg duo Carbon Based Lifeforms 'Endospore', a dreamlike, euphoric track.

Tune number five is no other than Solar Fields himself giving us 'Feelings', a extraordinary piece of music craftmanship. Next up is Vibrasphere, here teamed up with american singer Irina Mikhailova. Their track 'Meander' is a true masterpiece of chilled music.

Continuing the musical journey, norway producer Xerxes gives us his 'Early Morning Crystals', a more groovy, hypnotic number straight from the norwegian fiords. The following tune is from Dennis Tapper, more known as Hux Flux. Together with former Ibojima-member Magnus Holte they have formed the project Illuminus. Here they present their psychedelic dub soundscape 'Dem Cowboys'.

Chromosome continues the psychedelic surges with the melodic 'Evens Heaven', followed by the trance veteran Blue Planet Corporation with his magnificent, funky 'A Foret(e)st Of Paradise'. Closing the collection is no other than Robert Elster from Vibrasphere and technoproducer Martin Skogehall as the duo Kritical Audio. 'Yellow Blend' is a brilliant, rythmic piece with a catchy 303 bassline.

A lot of excitement and a lot of fun - Our premier at Tanzhaus West in Frankfurt. Special thanks to Urban Rituals who created a great atmosphere and for inviting us to play Chapter 3 on this beautiful downtempo Floor. We wish you a lovely journey while listening to the original recording from our first Gig <3.

19.05.2019 - Chapter 3 @ Tanzhaus West Frankfurt

Wow, what a day! Looks like summer finally got here! And we have the perfect refresher for you during these hot summer days:

KIDSØ, an electronica duo based in Munich (Germany), made a delicious chill pill named Blue Mountain. 

KIDSØ is one of these discoveries we made while scrolling through the endless streams in the cloud of sounds. It was their track named “Apart” that draw our interest, and we are extremely happy that this gem is also part of this mix.

The Blue Mountain is a recording of KIDSØ ‘s performance at Munich’s Bahnwärter Thiel, where they had a concert just recently. The duo does only live performances with quite an impressive setting: hundreds of cables laying all over the set to connect analog instruments with effect-racks and digital equipment. This is how they create their signature sound based on organic sound samples and live instruments. 

It started all back in the 90s, when Moritz was tweaking electronic sounds on his AMIGA and Martin was experimenting with computer programming. 

Since the beginning, the drums are the heart of their productions with the melodies following. Both play the drums, Moritz is coming from the Hip Hop and Funk scene while Martin has a background in rock and metal music. 

The result, it might suprise you, is completely different: smooth, emotional and insanely delicious. To put it in their own words: KIDSØ ‘s music represents the place in between, remote from the usual and ordinary, the real word and the imagination, dream and reality.

We absolutely love it – and we are proud to feature two unreleased premieres of KIDSØ in their delicious Blue Mountain (track list to follow later)! Thank you guys!

During this cold weather, we bring you some warm vibes by Lara Schick.

Lara was a lovely part of the community, ever since the first series of our podcast. Her music varies from melodic techno to playful downtempo as we love it. This combined with the sound of a characteristic 70s guitar makes this set so charismatic. She always tries to take everyone onto a special trip through the colorful world of sound and this time she takes the chameleon on a rendezvous with her 🥰
Thank you Lara for this wonderful journey!

So, as always dear chameleon-family, lean back get cozy and enjoy these fine tunes  <3

Echoes from Sun Drine & Pan B - Together

Mit unserem siebten Schleichcast stellen wir euch diesen Monat Max Nagget (@maxnagget) vor! Das Artwork ist von Caitlin Backhouse.

~Zeit für ein schleichendes Frage & Antwort Spiel~

>>Wer bist du und woher kommst du?
Ich heiße Max Adenau und komme gebürtig aus Hameln, aufgewachsen bin ich aber im schönen Stutengarten.

>>Wie kamst du zum Auflegen?
Dank meines Schlagzeuglehrers der auch DJ war und in Läden wie zum Beispiel dem Schocken gespielt hat, kam ich mit 14 das erste Mal zum Auflegen. (Grüße gehen raus)

>>Was gefällt dir besonders an "langsamer" Musik?
Mir gefällt an langsamer Musik vor allem diese ganz einzigartige Stimmung die von ihr auf Festivals/Raves geschaffen wird. Das kann man schlecht mit Worten beschreiben.

>>Was ist dein aktueller Lieblingstrack (und auf wieviel BPM)?
Ich habe nie DEN einen Lieblingstrack, welcher mir aber momentan als erstes einfällt is: Orchestre Les Mangelepa - Nyako Konya (Yuksek remix)

>>Ein Set, dass du dir immer wieder anhörst?
YUKSEK on RADIO NOVA #1 / march 20, 2020

>>Was ist dein Lieblingsfestival?
Ich finde die Leute um dich herum machen das Festival aus, um aber die Frage zu beantworten hatte ich auf der Fusion und auf Plötzlich am Meer die schönsten Erfahrungen.

Danke Max und nun viel Spaß mit Schleichcast°7!

Max Nagget

Iva - Deep Afterhour Nr. 351

Once in a Blue Moon, I had a dream,
A dream of passion, that made my heart scream.

A dream of Adventure & of Love
A dream of Completeness from above.

Once in a Blue moon a wish come true
Peace, Love and Joy is all that grew

Once in a Blue Moon I had the chance.
But that time has now, since past.

So as this Moon rises Blue this night,
I shall dream of then, until the Light.

Once in a Blue Moon, I had a Dream.
A dream so wonderful, like I've never seen.

                                           🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔

 If you thought the holiday couldn't possibly get more epic, you'd be wrong. On October 31st we’ll witness the first full moon to fall on Halloween since 2001.  
Hallows' Eve holiday dates back thousands of years to the Celtic celebration of Samhain.
 ● Samhain was celebrated from Oct. 31 through Nov.1, as a way of welcoming the harvest and invoking the darker half of the year. The Celtics believed it's the one day a year where the barriers between the physical world and spirit world dissolve.  
 ●With this rare occasion and favorite holiday for us, we are happy to present you a musical story as rare as the blue moon from our favorite producer, https://soundcloud.com/amu_amu
 ● Marcus Sur aka AmuAmu comes from Germany. The way walked by him into the musical world is epic and memorable, which never leaves listeners untouched. His exceptional way and style merge from deep downtempo into the sounds of ethnic, acid, electronic … 
 
  ●We hope his set will be a perfect fit for your full moon dance ritual.

Are you ready to take the iconic Margarita to the next level? With the addition of Meczal and one of our favourite upcoming dutch talents, Nordfold, you'll get a wonderful Smokey Margarita. We have to warn you, after sipping this gem you'll never drink the standard Margarita again! 

Nordfold meticulously crafts his sound, blending elements from different eras and genres. With his music he tries to grasp and evoke a feeling of endlessness and wonder. 

A collaborative remix together with Budakid of Seth Schwarz' "Aphelion" on 3000 Grad catapulted him on our radars. The development since then is impressive: releases and remixes on heavyweight labels such as Einmusika, Stil vor Talent, SUDBEAT, and most recently, Anjunadeep, underline his tremendous production skills. On November 3rd, Nordfold returns to Anjunadeep with his new EP ‘Down Memory Lane’.

It's not only his productions that are top, his mixes are something else. With his Smokey Margarita Nordfold is taking us on a smooth and beautiful ride through various electronica genres, perfectly blended. Get comfy and enjoy this smooth but uplifting sip!

Cheers!

The Blood & Sand is one of the best classic Scotch cocktails, invented in the 1920s as a tribute to movie with the same name. We're extremely happy to welcome Tel Aviv DJ pioneer Sahar Z to our team for his mellow interpretation of this delicious sip. Sahar uses a balanced mix of groovy percussion beats, not too uplifting, and freshly squeezed deep vibes.

Over the last decade Sahar Z has emerged as one Israel’s finest DJ and production talents. (His prodigious skills led to Deep Dish saying that Sahar ‘is the best kept secret of the Middle East’). 
Alongside being a resident at Haoman 17 (one of the biggest and most prestigious clubs in Israel), the Tel Aviv-based DJ is also a long time veteran of the global techno and house scenes. Not limited by any genre or style, Sahar Z’s influences come from a variety of directions: deep melodic sounds and fresh electronica to the harder yet soulful techno edges. Continuing to see his work supported by the global DJ elite in Sasha, John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo and many more, the name of Sahar Z is quickly becoming synonymous with having a gold standard reputation that is beyond reproach and with beatiful releases on Lost & Found, Bedrock, microcastle, Sudbeat and more.

An honour having you on board, Sahar! 

Cheers!

Miraval:
Has been a deep need to express an innate balance among sound, motion and feeling. During the Spring of 2017, Dimitris & Lazarus KItsas gave shape to their strong connection with mount Olympus, where they grew up and got inspired. Their love for deep electronic music, combined with various multicultural influences, made them create unique "escapes" appealing to every sense."

Kein Buch und kein Film hat mich mehr geprägt, wie 

"Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo"

Ich möchte Euch dazu meine ganz eigene Geschichte erzählen !!!

Mixed and Compiled by Gefangen Intrance

Ein Zustand der Extase überlebt mehrere Tage.
GEFANGEN von der Frequenz, der du hemmungslos Kontrolle schenkst.
Ob tanzend zu harten Bässen - oder zart von Melodie besessen.
Unser Klang ist immer angemessen - um den Alltag zu vergessen.
INTRANCE bist du GEFANGEN - wenn unstillbar dein Verlangen...
..nach neuer Liebe zur Musik - vielleicht im nächsten Lied...?

Tracklist now available on our new homepage:
