«Autumn kiss for Night Lovers» — that was the name of the file that we received from our friend and musician, whose work we are constantly inspired by. 
X.Y.R. is a very talented musicain and producer from Sestroretsk. We highly recommend taking a closer look at his beautiful works. 

And in the meantime we are excited to present you a new guest mix by X.Y.R. as a continuation of his romantic story. 
The first mix on “Kiss for Night Lovers” series was recorded in 2022 at our collaboration event with TESTFM radio and Shilo Magazine. Was amazing, video available on YouTube. 

Our suggestion: try to listen it in sequence since from first mix.

Night Lovers +17 w/ X.Y.R.

♾ De Kat Memwa #53 w/ Andrea Ida ♾

Track ID: @ae-ida

Embarking on the new calendar season of De Kat Memwa with a guest I've been eagerly anticipating. There's always been an imaginary roster of creators in my mind that I'd be thrilled to host in the series. Vienna-based artist Andrea Ida has long been on this list, but somehow, due to my own negligence, I couldn't get in touch with her. Finally, I managed to correct this glaring mistake.

I recall stumbling upon Andrea's mixes somewhere around 2019, and I was absolutely mesmerized. Nearly every corner of the sonic internet space was filled with tropical sounds, which we were also cultivating at that time. However, Andrea stood out among music enthusiasts with her love for krautrock, punk, NDW, and other dark arts and matters.

I deeply admire individuals with diverse musical interests who can showcase a wide array of genres in their mixes, while evoking a specific emotion or association. Andrea is precisely one of those musical weavers. Her mixes are comprised of different nodes and intertwinings that form a unified masterpiece.

For me, her works are always about active listening, surprise, inspiration, and most importantly, immersion in sound, transitioning from one state to another, and also about charisma and daily protest against routines. And this unique release, recorded by Andrea specifically for De Kat Memwa, is no exception.

As I was crafting this text, I wanted to encapsulate the impression of listening to the mix in the form of a metaphor. Perhaps it was obvious to write something about an esoteric shamanic ritual.... But not today... 

For me, this mix is akin to riding on Falcor the Luck Dragon from the movie The NeverEnding Story, only you're not a teenager anymore, but an adult!

The mix is, as always, available on De Kat Memwa's SoundCloud, link in the profile description!
 

Postscript: The mix number is 53, and 5+3=8=♾.

Draw your own conclusions, but nothing is accidental in our world of narratives and simulacra!

The last mix of the year was recorded by XNTRS.
Alena is a great artist and music selector from Lisbon.

"In her works, Alena relies on feelings and sensations. One of the most important goals is sincerity with herself. Ideas come on their own. These are either internal states, experiences or reflection on events, but it is always a flow. Alena works without sketches, immediately with a large canvas and completely trusting her feelings and leaving the viewer to communicate one-on-one with the painting. Everything you feel is all yours. There's no right or wrong. Despite the fact that the works turn out to be quite biographical, they do not belong to the artist, but to each viewer, reflecting oneself in it."

Such a nice touch into another Night Lovers world

thanks for staying with us! 
Happy new year <3

Night Lovers +22 w/ Xntrs

As the ongoing artist-in-residence and de facto Night Czar of Breadminster, Elijah Minnelli has done much to broaden the district's cultural-standing with an ever-growing stable of sonic exports.

This mix was created during an away day with the British school evaluation service, OFSTED. Echoes of the academically critical can be heard in the selection, with some songs representing the nervous gulp of a new headmaster from the home counties, whose first six months in the big smoke haven’t gone so well.

A 4-hour mix set I made in honor of TD and the late Edgar Froese, who passed away almost exactly a year ago. Temporary free download, high quality mp3. 

For those unfamiliar with Tangerine Dream, it is my very humble opinion (and VERY humble) that this mix is one of the best ways to be introduced to their music. It focuses more on their moody ambient side, which was sometimes overlooked because of the band's tendency to balance out their serenity with electrified, intense, faced paced passages. Of course that those peaks and valleys were what made the band legendary, but for listeners who have trouble with peaks and valleys, I offer this mix to remedy that a bit. Tangerine Dream's historic and undeniable influence on the evolution of electronic music can be heard throughout the set. It focuses on the band's first two decades, 70s and 80s, and hones in primarily on the period when Johannes Schmoelling was the third member of the band (early 80s) (which I believe to be their greatest period, but that's just me). Take it in. The mix is both entertaining and/or something that can be left on in the background.

Лев Ганкин, социальный исследователь Марк Симон и музыкант и журналист Ник Завриев рассуждают, почему рейв-культура стала определяющей для британского общества 1990-х. Что заставляло толпы людей танцевать под эйсид-хаус? Как на рейв-вечеринки реагировала власть, а как — рок-музыканты? Что сегодня можно считать наследием рейв-эпохи и как клубные тусовки связаны с Маргарет Тэтчер?

Обсуждаем в связи с выставками Леонардо да Винчи в Риме, Турине и Париже.

Какой спектакль ставит перед нами Венеция? Как она победила Флоренцию (по части живописи)? В чем Тинторетто лучше Микеланджело и зачем, глядя на его шедевры, снимать очки?
