For the first Deep Mind Music of 2023, I am delighted to welcome garçon, one of the brains behind the impeccable amenthia label, a dynamic and highly-inspiring DJ, whose sets I always find special. After many years of mutual online mix-appreciation, we finally got to hang out in person last year, and it’s been so lovely to connect with a fellow deep-feeling DJ.

I love the way garçon weaves together sounds, rhythms and harmonies into compelling patchworks which transport the listener into whole new worlds. He has a very subtle way of putting together tracks, delicately contrasting soundscapes to bring out new shapes and motifs, lightly morphing the visual landscape around us.

garçon's mix for Deep Mind Music is a space for nocturnal daydreaming, a gentle dive into the ocean of the mind, going ever inwards in a swirling haze of thoughts. A poignant expression of emotion that perfectly captures the wistful energy of January 🕯️

The first half of the mix slowly coalesces out of gossamer veils of sound, each new layer melting into the next. In the second half, we gradually descend into deeper pools of emotion, detaching from reality and getting lost in the waves. By the end, we’re adrift in an intimate cerebral realm, a space for pensive imagining and unbounded feeling. The closing track by Donnacha Castello is one of those pieces of music which is at once an expression of the deepest sorrow, and the purest joy. Thank you garçon for this very moving entry 🕊️🤍☁️

garçon ~ Deep Mind Music Vol.25

Recording of a live DJ set for the Liminal Dreams 1st-anniversary series in Tokyo, March 11th 2023 alongside https://soundcloud.com/lynne-tokyo, https://soundcloud.com/yolabmi (Live), https://soundcloud.com/yutotakei, and https://soundcloud.com/yutaroy at Spread, Shimokitazawa. Thank you to all who made this evening happen, those who came, listened attentively, shut their eyes and let the music fill the room on an amazing system that Saturday evening. It really was a special, memorable moment for me.  

The set includes lots of unreleased/forthcoming ASIP music, alongside releases from Quiet Places, Max Würden and Merrin Karras, plus some of my fave moments from Field Lines Cartographer, Echospace, qebrµs, Sindh, Jo Johnson, Acronym, Endurance and Wndfrm.

Deep Breakfast 282 ~ Basic Chanel

Really happy to welcome our next guest... Adam O'Hara, aka The Vision Reels, whose 2020 ambient-drone debut, "Eyes Open" (Kizen Records), captured our heart <3. 

Over the years, Adam has crafted a very beautiful sonic language, with releases on re:st and Huinali Recordings, and a more recent collaboration with UK's Barefoot as CVOIA. Together, they also run Captured Visions, a label exploring the liminal spaces between ambient and dance music (highly recommended !)

The Observatory - The Vision Reels

"An invisible voice imparts its wisdom to me,  
Silently, I follow where it leads.  
The unseen voice teaches me creation,  
From nothingness, sun rays appear.  

I stand before a golden wall,  
Words are written in an ancient tongue.  
Soon, I will discover the old alphabet,  
Unravel its message, and understand its song."
