"In the last year I've had a really strained relationship with electronic music and also music in general. This mix is an exercise in reminding myself why I love electronic music in the first place and the power of emotion and wonderment it can inspire."

Inspired by a recent drive around LA ~ a collage of neon advertisements shielded by sun-bleached billboards, where manicured lawns frame suburban monotony. Frivolity and despair collapse into one another, revealing the protracted grim realities of profit over people, while a hot sunset and hot bodies bounce off iridescent post-human monoliths.

Slowfoam is the sound project of multidisciplinary artist Madelyn Byrd, whose work is influenced by our impact on nature, surreal utopian abstractions, and beauty in the palpable mundane.

An unsettling and cathartic musical road trip where at all times our hands are firmly kept on the steering wheel. Meanwhile, some glimmering flashes of beauty are being reflected, with joy and determination, through the car's window making the journey more pleasant.

Oceanic ╚═ Future Intel X Nous'klaer ═╗ 09 10 2021

Wrapping up today’s program with another episode of NWAQ's bi-monthly stoner take on current affairs. Fall edition, with matching pace and sentiment, but def not moody.

wake 'n bake with NWAQ fm (also for evenings)[09.10.2021]

"Exploration trip; after crossing the wormhole, I head towards the epicenter of the radio waves I captured. Futuristic melodies change to earthy and organic ones. An immense satellite orbits that wonderful blue sphere. I look at it holistically, in the background that tribal sound sucks me inside. Textures, different landscapes but forming a whole. I can’t intervene anymore, they would discover me and it’s not time yet. With melancholy jazz I have to come back, crying but smiling at the same time."

Slowfoam (@slowfoam) is the sound and DJ moniker of Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist Madelyn Byrd. Their work stems from a curiosity about subconscious realms, the slippery nature of perception, post~capitalist musings, and joy in the mundane. She's currently working on an installation in collaboration with AI, curating a monthly radio show called 'our tomorrow' on Internet Public Radio, and working *slowly* on a couple of albums. Madelyn is also a founding member of the dream~tank and art collective, MOLD, which will be presenting Magdalena Jadwiga Härtelova's 'How Do You Talk Across Distance When All You Have is a Flying Goose' at Cross Attic in Prague on October 30th.

Music for disappearing in to. 

This month's Skylab show was the first episode me and Patrin have been able to record back to back since April. It's an improvised set, recorded on a warm afternoon in Eora/Sydney and features a lot of ambient music we've been listening to over the past few months, plus some great forthcoming things. We hope you enjoy.

Skylab - Theory Therapy E12

Have you ever gone outside on a cloudy day and smelled that it was going to rain? Or, after a rainstorm, noticed that there was a certain smell in the air? Childhood memories come to mind when playing in the puddles of water was the best moment of the day. It was the time when the smell of earth meant the onset of a joyous season.

Petrichor is the term given to that unique scent following a rain shower – when the world seems to sigh with pleasure, and we, unconsciously perhaps, breathe in a little more deeply, savouring the smells in return.

Francesco Piunti is the man behind @deepbreakfastseries, a brilliant and touchfull mix series focused on ambient sounds. Our maximum true respect for the dedication, knowledge and excellent way of doing. Returning to the term petrichor, Francesco gives us a short poem from Leah Snyder that goes like this:

“I step outside, the sky above gray as slate
petrichor seeping up through the grass,
engulfing my state of mind as i inhale
and guiding me into a place of hushed abstraction”.

Definitely, petrichor is more than just a happy smell. It is a promise of abundance, a welcome chance of survival and shelter, and a hope that the merry childhood days will be back again.

.CHPTR042 ‘Petrichor’ | Francesco Piunti

Everyone at some point in their existence experiences a critical moment in their busy life where big decisions can lead to big change, both at work and in life. A turning point that make your life never be the same again. A new you, a new us.

David is a die-hard record collector who has been playing them around the North of Spain and Europe for more than 15 years now. Since three years ago he's more focused on Escala de Grisos, his monthly radio show on a local station, where he plays and discuss about ambient, techno and anything in between as well as making some interviews.

David has recorded the following mix with that feeling of knowing that something huge is about to change in his life, just like what happened at .apart in a way. Hence the name translated into Catalan :)

A magnificent true personal musical journey where he captures with great sense and extreme delicacy a long list of antonyms such as fear-hope, uncertainty-desire…

To sum up overall, David shares the following poem:

"... The rocks crash, the puddles splash, the mirrow ripples, the calmness returns, so are the turning points of life that disrupt our world to only steer us onto a path more right than the one before, let the wind blow as it may, for it's only wish is to whisk you away to a destination where your heart will find a true home, a place where the doubts and confusion have no life supply, for when the turn is complete, a soul once lost, will be found, only to realize it was all part of the journey, and around the corner there is so much more to see ...

.CHPTR043 'Turning points' | D. Humo

As if it were a migratory journey, we move away voluntarily or forced, unfortunately some, from a cold and normally noisy city full of hectic lives and people with a thirst for power. A walk towards nature/forest where human voices cease to exist to transform into animal sounds causing a feeling of refuge and closeness. We leave behind a world of concrete and welcome the sounds of mother earth.

Milan native Matteo, a clearly devotee of nature, investigates sound with high enthusiansm and dedication. He wonderfully creates a mellow amalgam of layers using over-reverberated synths, field recordings, and self-created samples. Atoloi is constantly searching for another dephts in which the listener can get lost while getting submerged by heavy-grained noises and evocative instrumental compositions.

Matteo has left us the following text: “I tried to represent this slow march in a real and, at the same time, emotional forest, in which memories and the outer cosmos merge into a unique and cathartic experience.

A pleasant stroll through the forests of Ego. “A universe born from the perfect union between the external environment and the inmost emotional unconscious”.

.CHPTR044 ‘Due passi tra le foreste dell'Io’ | Atoloi

Aboard a spaceship lined from top to bottom with neon lights and made of sound remnants, noises, samples, field recordings and modular synthesizers; we're heading somewhere where we're just pure spectators. During the trip piloted by Mocrobo, a rich auditory landscape full of magnificent sound waves of different shapes/sizes can be seen/heard through the ship's windows. Melodic and harmonic at times but loud and terrifying at others. Distant voices and modules weaving a varied network of shots that cover styles such as pop, ambient, noise or trip hop.

Victor is an experimental musical artist from Jaén (Spain) who is difficult to classify and comes from the most extreme confines of metal. His creations took a radical turn towards the electronic field attracted by the great variety of nuances and possibilities that exist in the synthesis of sound and experimentation with classical processed instruments.

Victor reminds us that ‘if for someone being locked up at home is a better idea than going out for fresh air, perhaps a Lyra 8 could become a great friend’.

"De las entrañas del ego q vomita la furia unicelular del individuo en llamas, la máquina análoga experimenta el hecho, escupiendo a través del Mosco Dantesco vidas q vociferan gritos indescifrables en su Cualquiera...Cualquiera"

Helecho comes from Rosario (Argentina) where through his electronic gadgets he takes experimentation to a very personal terrain.

I've been on a dark jazz kick for the last few years and a little bit of that comes through in spots on this album. This one more so than others I think.

Привет народам нашей родины, прокладывающим путь человечеству к коммунизму. Управление пилотом-космонавтом
Комаровым, я потерял управление кораблём, я вас не слышу! Ради моей жизни, говорите громче, дурак...
