Ambient Sleepers Podcast series / Refuge Worldwide

For this edition of our Codecast X sessions, we'd like to present a great DJ/Producer whose music we admire and love, Dycide.

Percussive jems and beautiful landscapes all around are to be expected from this selection. An ever-growing journey which will take us into the depths of Dycide's mind and soul.
Unique sound design & fine blends are the signature of his work and this set is not an exception to that tacit rule.

He's one of the co-founders of https://soundcloud.com/iorecs, an audiovisual project which was born in Munich and stablished itself as one of the go-to labels in this scene we love so much.

We hope you enjoy the masterpiece, put together by https://soundcloud.com/dycide.

Ambient Sleepers 004: Silent-One (for Refuge Worldwide)
( @silent-one-music )

The 4th episode of the new Ambient Sleepers radio show on Refuge Worldwide / @refugeworldwide is hosting an Ambient set from Silent-One.

The label manager of Intimate Silence dedicated a very special mix for us - beautiful journey through the sound we love, from the bo of Ghost in the Shell to Avril 14th from Aphex Twin. Enjoy!

This bi-monthly podcast series is part of our collaboration with the Berlin-based radio Refuge Worldwide (a fundraising platform working with a young womxn’s centre, refugee, etc.. / offering visibility to minorities and fights against all kinds of discrimination).

- Tue 17th August at 1pm (aired on Refuge Worldwide)

More info about Silent-One:

He might be a relative newcomer but DJ and producer Silent-One has had a great first schooling entering the scene. Born in 1992, Benedikt Merkl is one of the founding members of the From Another Mind-collective. Setting up the party in 2014 in his hometown Stuttgart in Germany (and later expanding it to Munich), he got his training through “learning by doing”. In 2016 the party also evolved into a record. Organizing the From Another Mind-club nights was what eventually led him into DJing, debuting in 2015 and shortly thereafter landing residencies at MMA in Munich and Romy S in Stuttgart.

When Silent-One DJs he fearlessly goes from more controlled techno into relentless, EBM-tinged productions and all the way into wave-territory. Unafraid of changing the structure of his sets, he peppers rigid tracks with rhythm-focused material, letting playful basslines and drum patterns wash over. All of this set on a backdrop of emotional atmospheric sounds – digging out tracks that rest on an ambient tapestry comes natural for Silent-One. For him ambient goes deep and true. He sees “ambient as reality and techno as an illusion” – a shifted and unusual view of the two genres. Maybe this also ties into his perspective of the From Another Mind- events, where he as a DJ (and organizer) builds a space for the clubbers to escape their daily lives, getting a chance to get lost in music.

Mentioning the ambient influences in his DJ-sets brings you directly to the center of his own work as a producer. The often sacral-sounding productions are nothing short of a deeply personal exploration for Silent-One; with the help of visceral sounds he brings the listener to the mind’s dispirited places; not being scared of its less gleeful corners. Hinting this already in the track titles by selecting them as carefully as he composes them. His ambient works are very much an extension of himself and their existence is meaningful to the producer.

Silent-One set up his label Intimate Silence already in 2016, which makes him not just an “early bird”, but also a fixture on the currently revived ambient scene. Intimate Silence is his platform solely dedicated to ambient and experimental creations, while the From Another Mind-imprint fulfills his techno desires. Silent- One’s ambitions with the label also resulted as offspring in shape of a monthly radio show for France’s acclaimed Rinse FM. Since 2017 Silent-One invites his favourite DJ’s and producers by asking them to provide ambient mixes. He selects his guests irrespectively of their typical musical output, wanting to shed their first layer to see what their idea of beatless music

We are very happy to welcome the talented Polish DJ Kasia Gościńska for the 5th episode of Ambient Sleepers radio show on Refuge Worldwide / @refugeworldwide!

This musical journey will bring you to the different horizons, from atmospheric ambient, to dark and experimental sounds. Get on board for a great storytelling in the universe of Kasia Gościńska!

This bi-monthly podcast series is part of our collaboration with the Berlin-based radio Refuge Worldwide (a fundraising platform working with a young womxn’s centre, refugee, etc.. / offering visibility to minorities and fights against all kinds of discrimination).

- Tue 19th Oct at 2pm (aired on Refuge Worldwide)

More info about Kasia GościńskaI:

A resident artist of the Berlin SønDER and Rave for Good events and the founder of the szlag initiative, the main concept of which is building a bridge between the underground scenes of different cities and countries. 

She cultivated her passion for electronic music in the hometown of Warsaw. After the move to Spain, she converted from a raver to a DJ the moment she started missing the harder face of music in the area she lived. Berlin, the current home-base, motivated her to discover different genres and to go outside of the comfort zone. 
Drawn to heavier electronic music, in her club sets, Kasia Gościńska revolves around the sounds of broken & industrial techno, electro, EBM, weaving in some faster UK-influenced breaks, post punk and wavy flavors. Industrial downtempo, experimental and ambient music all have a special place in her selection as well.

Ambient Sleepers 006:  Linn Elisabet (for Refuge Worldwide)
( @linnelisabet )

For the 6th episode of our radio podcast on Refuge Worldwide, we're thrilled to welcome the great Swedish DJ and producer Linn Elisabet.

Linn's music selection will bring you to discover a more lyrical and semi-religious aesthetic of Ambient sounds.  Between choir opera vocals and atmospheric, enjoy a transcendent journey to a spiritual world.

This bi-monthly podcast series is part of our collaboration with the Berlin-based radio Refuge Worldwide (a fundraising platform working with a young womxn’s centre, refugee, etc.. / offering visibility to minorities and fights against all kinds of discrimination).

- Tue 22nd March at 4pm (aired on Refuge Worldwide - @refugeworldwide)

More info about Linn Elisabet:

Led by ethereal vocals, broken beats and raw distortion, Linn Elisabet’s transgressive interpretation of techno imagines a future where double-binding societal norms have been dissolved. Driven by notions of freedom and self-shaped reality, their narratives strive to hold your hand while observing the storm of life from its eye, facing a world more vast than we dared to imagine. With a classically trained past in string orchestras and church choirs, it is given where their soundscape, as well as their fascination for existentialism, was born.

Having released with acclaimed labels like Planet Rhythm and A R T S, Linn launched their own imprint Acts Of Rebellion in 2020. The label expands on Elisabet’s mission: releasing alternative dance music challenging the border of genre conventions and traditional functionality, as well as the destructive policies that hold underground dance back from its original cause.

Complemented with its non-musical augmented reality storytelling, Acts of Rebellion can be considered a series of postal cards, demonstrating the challenges we all go through: on a macro-level as a society, and on a micro-level as individuals. Stories of unconditional self-respect and overcoming normative conditioning. Stories of reclaiming one's history and name, of shaping one's own reality. Stories of remembering love, and of Challenge bowing for its queen: fierce minds and hearts which are ready for anything.

Ambient Sleepers 007: Medulla Oblongata
( @medulla_oblongata )

Our 7th episode is stepping out from our regular format of podcasts aired on Refuge Worldwide, and is simply released only here on Soundcloud.

We're happy to welcome Medulla Oblongata, curating the French collective TRÊVE, promoting Ambient events and podcast.
Get on board for a dark, drone and atmospheric Ambient journey!

More info about Medulla Oblongata:

Medulla Oblongata is a discreet yet emerging Dj who blossoms in his musical biotope between ambient and a mental and hypnotic techno. His techno sets are an invitation to an immersive journey where dancers can forget themselves. We could see him working lately with the Château Perché Festival and their secret and uncompromising side projects and mixing at KALT Club (Strasbourg, Fr) where he can express himself without boundaries.

With other weirdos he also co-founded the collective TRÊVE gathering artists from different horizons around ambient and visual arts in order to propose dreamlike and contemplative events. His ambient sets become hybridized with tape samples, droning machine loops and synthesizers.

Ambient Sleepers 008: Eric Cloutier
( @cloutier )

Four 8th podcast, We're thrilled to release the recording from Eric Cloutier's beautiful 1 hour Ambient set at our last event Ambient Sleepers #5(05.05.22.)!

We had the chance to invite this legendary Techno DJ and producer from NY/Detroit to perform a special Ambient set, offering us a dreamy journey between atmospheric ambient, field recording, drone and experimental sounds - Enjoy!


More info about Eric Cloutier:

Cloutier’s nature - one of zeal and infatuation towards the warm, dubby, hypnotic house and techno that has come to characterize his sound as well as his ability to bridge the gap between dance music’s past and its future.

Eric Cloutier’s standards are representative of the pre-social media craze and arguably the old adage of letting music speak for itself. Cloutier’s twenty-plus year commitment has been built upon his integrity as a DJ and authority as a selector. A self-described "record digging psychopath," one only has to refer to his mix of highly sought after cuts from Driftwood Records to see the lengths Cloutier will go to in order to procure the perfect selection. This is truly Cloutier’s nature - one of zeal and infatuation towards the warm, dubby, hypnotic house and techno that has come to characterize his sound as well as his masterful ability to bridge the gap between dance music’s past and its future.

An exception to the norm, Cloutier is not one to capitalize on his Detroit origins. Moving to New York in his 20’s, he became a regular face at The Bunker where he began to further define his innate style of body orientated music. Now situated in Berlin, where he often shows up behind the decks of niche alcoves as well as the world’s best clubs, Cloutier’s reputation as an unequivocal, dexterous force is increasingly becoming one of note. His talents as a producer have also been growing of late, with the establishment of his own imprint Palinoia, Greek for “the obsessive repetition of an act until it is perfected or mastered.” The label has become the new home and optimization for Cloutier’s evolving undertakings. Through Palinoia, Cloutier manages to further synthesize slick, dubby club music to slide into his DJ sets as well as feature lesser known talent he's discovered. He’s a DJ for whom quality - above all else - is the watchword.
