Oslated Presents CALMA - 3rd. Mix by Vrika

Originally aired on Optic Echo Presents / Xray.fm. www.mixcloud.com/opticecho

As we’re all sat at home during the lockdown, wondering what life is like for others in the same situation, (or in some instances imagining life in a far away world…), I pictured a situation where I was scanning through FM radio stations and listening in on various moments - different worlds, weird sounds, some recognizable, some jarring, and some comforting. I thought it would be nice once this mix was broadcast on Xray FM, as if this moment was being bounced back to me from another planet. (OK, I think through concepts way too much sometimes).

100% vinyl, this mix was, however, very nearly thrown in the trash. I accidentally recorded it in mono and once I had realized this mistake, I got pretty annoyed, as anybody would. But then I gave it some time and listened back, and felt the aesthetic suited the overall concept and theme pretty well - especially as an original FM transmission. Our trusty friend https://soundcloud.com/djtodos even polished the mix a little to help bring out the frequencies for re-uploading. 

I’m a big believer in vinyl sets capturing a moment in time. Digital sets you can repeat, perfect and start again (they have their own benefits), but this one was gone, and despite the mistake, in my eyes, it adds a little charm knowing this set as you know it (and like all live vinyl sets) will never be repeated again in 100% the same manner, and I can refer back to the exact memory this was made.

1. Pauline Oliveiros - I of IV [Odyssey, 1967]

3rd member of the musical residents of TREVE, here's Ox (@r-my-laporte-1) with a beautiful live. We hope that'll make you make you wait until the first premiere of TREVE where he and  @morgan-fortems will present their video/musical project called "La Douce".

◊x is written like that, you don't say "diamond cross", but OX. It's easier. It's impossible to write ◊x either, no one knows where the goddamn diamond is on a keyboard. As if he wanted us not to find him.
Member of the Label @onvamourir_records with which he organized a few analog festivities and cables and machines orgies. ◊x loves to play brutal and dark techno live, a mixture of crumpled sheets and laces rolled up at 175 bpm.
But his hidden pleasure lies somewhere between deep drones and soft and crystalline atmospheres. An endless collage of synths, field recording and drones layers assembled in a fragile and shiny magma.
