Snipes from a single on 180 grams of wax for a label I've created to release myself in sonic form upon this chaos. May these be like iridescent crude oil paintings on the water of life you can put in2 ur ears and watch as they unravel.

62*2: Ice crystals decorate the well-worn machines. There's a positive buzz in the air, as construction on the purple plane is progressing smoothly. I'm still getting used to my new form, but I feel like I can be of help.

#98 calls for a special appearance by my dear friend, and very talented dj/ creator @voxsupreme. Lounes and I met on the beach at waking life festival in 2019 and have been friends ever since, now having done two ambient b2bs, at ADE in Amsterdam in 2019, and then coming full circle, we met at waking life 2022 for our second b2b. 

I consider him a master of all things ambient and electronica.. constanty impressed by the music he shares and plays. Clearly though, his dj'ing doesn't stop at ambient, with a crazy diversity of styles .. from dubstep and dnb to electro, breaks, techno and everything in between. 

Lounes is the man behind the ethereal dreamworld that is @traumgarten - a special collective focused on downtempo/experimental music and events. I'm always so impressed by the love, thought and creativity that goes into his events, alongside his partner Marinka who often contributes too.

Lots of love Lounes and so happy to finally have you as part of the series! <3

Animix Ninety Eight: Vox supreme

Jon Jones (@jjonjjones) is first to contribute to the DS global frequency database, with a blissed-out 3-track EP, 'Hyla'. In this program, we are situated in an open-world environment with a densely populated 3D rainforest installed. Here we will explore the realms of cybernetics and it's correlations between ourselves and the natural world.

Now available to experience throughout our EtherNet™ system.

Program A is a transcendent journey, dosed with a utopian vision. Organic progressive breaks and a mycelial 303 acid line, infused with euphoric beauty, all maintaining the organic touch that really defines Luke's music. 'Gateway' is best defined as a simulation of ascending the stairs to the higher plane. 

Program B1 'Nor Heaven, Nor Hell' is a deep, swirling cosmic trip. An echoed inward spiral driven by an earthy groove and beautifully weaved percussion, all lifted with blissful pads. This program is optimised for forest use.

Program B2 is a soundtrack to your personal interpretation of paradise. Tune in your frequency and let your imagination roam free. Thoughts of luscious glades with water reflecting the sun at it's highest, drifting weightlessly above a natural utopia.

Jon Jones - Hyla EP Previews (DSOFT001)

Pollinate Records founder Dashiell offers his first LP "This Colourful World" to the label. 

The album was recorded at his home studio in Coburg, Melbourne and features field recordings of the surrounding area. The process began at the beginning of 2020. Originally intended as an ambient album, the project morphed over the course of two years, adding and subtracting rhythms and varying tempos until coming to its conclusion, a sonic rendition of an uncertain future, equally as optimistic as it is cynical.

Dashiell - This Colourful World (Snippets)

Beautiful blends of half speed, wobbles & sublime sounds from young n fresh local Nak ( @isabel-nak ). Having only DJ'd for the last year, Isabel's skills suggest otherwise -- this mix showing off her pure class taste.

Deep broken beats, IDM & bass influenced chuggers are the theme here, however in her DJ sets she has been known to explore tasteful prog, fast and  higher energy rollers. Looking forward to watch Nak grow and flourish in the Naarm scene over the next while :) 

Thanks again for the mix Isabel!

As friends, coming together to make music feels like a special occasion that's filled with lots of love and care, friendship and happy feelings. The tracks reflect that as well - they're bouncy, ebullient, fun, warm, and effervescent."

JKTN075 features respected and prolific North American artists, Ciel and Ali Berger, who are pairing up for their first collaboration. The three original tracks deliver an irresistible energy, with bouncing rhythms, catchy mutant melodies, and undeniable warmth. If that wasn't enough, the remixes come from two producers who truly craft their own sound and style and sound like no other - Atlanta’s Nikki Nair and Pittsburgh’s Davis Galvin. 

This EP is headed straight for the DJs and to a dancefloor near you.

Bandcamp link: https://bigzen.bandcamp.com/album/prayer-bass

Big Zen makes his entrance on Mood Hut records with Prayer Bass, a freely focused collection of euphoric funk-splashed club-cuts from the much-loved Vancouver underground legend. Those who have seen him play at free parties in the park or at the many under-cover basements of Vancouver City will already know what Prayer Bass is all about. 

After many sessions and years of friendship both on and off the dance floor we are pleased to finally work with Big Zen. Following up his recently self-released 'Mirror Cut' 12" here Big Zen continues to swim out into the technicolour deep: Prayer bass is purple, Sugar Coated is frosty cream, Cash Splash is lightning blue, Rumble Ball is tangerine.

Billus - Shifting Sands EP (ANIMA6)

Daisy Records Volume One 

We are proud to present our very first V/A featuring nine incredible local and internationally based producers. A compilation that holds no genre but lots of weight, the aim and purpose of our first release was to give complete control to each artist who contributed to this compilation. Resulting in a balanced, yet genre bending flow from track to track creating what appears to be a perfectly premeditated body of work from start to finish - mixing through ambient and downtempo textures, dubby inspired breaks,  house & darker tones seamlessly.
