____________________________________________________________
So langsam reicht es dann jetzt auch mit dem Winter; eben noch die ersten Sonnenstrahlen durch jede mögliche Körperzone inhaliert, grüßen uns dann doch noch mal kurz ein paar eisige Temperaturen. Nichtsdestotrotz sitzen wir schon tief in den Plänen für den kommenden Sommer.
Einige von euch dürfen sich freuen, auf das, was so kommen mag. - Was meinen die da bloß? -

Aber ganz entspannt, erst einmal wollen wir gemeinsam mit Arkadiusz aus dem wunderschönen Spessart, DJ & Curator von Afterhour-Sounds, ne ausgiebige Runde auf unserem Karussell drehen. 
Den meisten wird er durch seine fein abgestimmten, fluiden Sets ein Begriff sein, mit denen er uns schon seit einigen Jahren beglückt. Viele verbinden eher Downtempo mit ihm, doch auch unter dem Begriff „Hypnodance“ lässt er mal eine etwas andere, schnellere und auch deepe, gefühlvolle Seite raus. Wer sich davon überzeugen lassen will, sollte sich unbedingt den Mitschnitt von seinem kürzlichen Ausflug in der Waldschänke Dornheim reinziehen – grandios!

Nun, aber hier und heute gibt es wie gewohnt einen sehr harmonischen Mix der Kategorie Slowrave.
Was sollen wir jetzt dazu noch sagen? Wieder mal ein Meisterwerk, mit dem du uns hier eine knappe Stunde mitgenommen hast. Wir bedanken uns, dass du dabei bist und freuen uns auf deine baldigen eigenen Releases in diesem Jahr - jap, ihr habt richtig gehört!
 
Haltet die Ohren offen, bis dahin.

#116 ☆ Igelkarussell ☆  Arkadiusz. 🦉

Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the 10 year-old witch apprentice) finally reached the shore. It was the very first time that they saw the Baltic Sea and they were duly impressed. The gale force winds made their long white dresses flap in the wind and their long hair was being blown in all kinds of directions, while high waves were roaring around them.
Despite the fact it was a cold and windy day in April, they didn’t hesitate for long. They slipped out of their dresses and waded into the water, holding hands to avoid being swept away by the high waves. The Baltic Sea was really wild and restless that day, and the girls had to battle for many minutes before they finally managed to reach water which was deep enough to dive into. They let go and felt how they got swept away by the retreating tide along a shallow gully, still holding hands firmly. Finally they reached the open sea. The wind was still as fierce but the waves were not that high anymore. So they decided to dip under water. The serene silence was in complete contrast with the deafening roar of the high waves on the surface of the sea.  So they decided to dive deeper, where the water was perfectly peaceful and calm, but also so murky that they could barely see their hands before their face.  So the witches had to search their way intuitively. 
They swam around for a couple of hours until something strange happened. The murky water suddenly became clearer and a few minutes later the water was perfectly clear and had a mesmerizing aquamarine glow. They could even see the sunrays shining down from above. This was a true oasis in the middle of the Baltic Sea. The area was also full of fish which were swimming around lazily. The girls even spotted a family of harbour porpoises, which is a critically endangered species in the Baltic. These marine mammals showed the witches the way to the centre of this marine oasis, where they met Paul The Octopus. The legend of this psychic octopus who can predict the future was well known, but Hekske had always thought that Paul was just a mythical animal which didn’t really exist. But exist he did, and the octopus was showing a myriad of different luminous colors, sparkling bright as a diamond in the sun. 
Paul had been expecting the witches for days. He stretched out his 8 arms and gave a welcome hug to the young witches. For the girls this was a very special feeling, as the skin of an octopus feels like nothing else on this planet, soft and firm at the same time … even very firm as they felt his suckers all over their bodies. The arms of the octopus were completely wrapped around Hekske and Falke, who surrendered to the serene and gentle energy of this beautiful sea dweller. Paul took the witches for a graceful slow dance through the aquamarine water. The girls lost all sense of space and time, and felt deeply connected … not only with this octopus, but also with the whole Baltic Sea. They couldn’t tell whether this tender embrace lasted for minutes or even hours, but they wanted this experience to go on forever …

Here is my Recording from my XXL Warm Up Set @ Absurd im Cube (Düsseldorf)

Larsiø - Absurd Im Cube (Slowbar) @ Cube Düsseldorf 13/05/2023

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this edition we welcome JOIA (@joia-music)

During the last seven years Leipzig-based Hannes has been touring around Europe and beyond, playing countless DJ sets at renowned clubs and festivals under different monikers.

He's made a name for himself as Nikolas Noam and with his techno project GYRL which has shaped down-tempo club music for years to come.

Under his JOIA persona he is continuing this legacy, albeit with a more musical edge to his productions and a simplified approach.
JOIA is happy when he can make beats and work on harmonies at home in his studio, because that's where he's most comfortable.

When he's out playing DJ sets, however, he's known to gather large crowds with bass-heavy downbeats delivered against a melancholic and harmonic backdrop.

With JOIA Hannes is always trying to stick to what's most important in any from of art - a simple idea, well executed.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!

JOIA [Journey Series]

Our next podcast comes from @magicianonduty. 

Magician on Duty is well known as a curator for both his successful Organic House label and his lovingly selected podcast series. He represents a new wave of supporting artists and projects that manifest a desire to incorporate other influences, moods and genres rather than explore the limited terrain of what’s already been established. 

Words can’t describe how happy and honoured we are to announce his contribution to the Easy Tiger “Striped” podcast series. He asked to give a lion tiger stripes to represent the stormy energy of his well selected musical journey. Close your eyes and let yourself drift with the pulsating waves of Magician on Duty <3

Striped #7 - Magician on Duty

It was late May in the witch’s forest, and finally the first real summer day of the year had arrived.  Hekske (the little witch), Falke (the 10-year old witch apprentice) and Lalita (the tree nymph) were just getting dressed after their daily bath in the nymph’s pond, when Bob The Owl suddenly landed on Hekske’s hand.  He had an urgent message to convey, as a visitor had just entered the forest.  Hekske instructed Bob to show their guest the way. The witches were very excited, as they only receive 1 visitor per year on average.
One hour later, their guest finally arrived. He turned out to be a middle-aged man with a weathered brown face, who was wearing long earth-colored clothes with several mysterious ornaments. The girls had never seen a person like this. He introduced himself as a Lakota shaman named Mahkah. After offering him a welcome drink and some forest berries, the witches got very intrigued and asked him a lot of questions. He was a great storyteller and the girls hung on his lips while he told tale after tale of the great culture and history of the Lakota people, as well as the majestic landscapes of the great plains. He also told some fearsome tales about the Wakinkyan, the thunder beings from the west. He was telling stories until midnight, while the witches huddled together around a bonfire and listened.
The Shaman was a very charming and pleasant person, with great sense of humor, making the girls erupt in giggles many times. Yet, despite being irresistibly funny he was also incredibly wise and at times he even managed to unsettle the girls with his sharp questions.
Lalita told the tale of her epic 7000 miles walk from South-East Asia to this forest in Flanders to fulfil her lifelong mission to protect the little oak tree (which is destined to become the future mother tree of the forest and from which she never strays more than 150 yards away). She proudly showed the tiny tree to their visitor, explaining that – despite being only 3 feet tall – it will grow into a majestic winter oak and live for 1000 years. She also told him that the little tree was growing very slowly because it was standing in the shadow of the giant beech tree, which took all the sunlight away. The shaman casually asked whether they were really sure that this tree was so extraordinary, as all trees are alike and all contain the same divine energy.

The next morning, the girls noticed that the mysterious shaman had left without saying goodbye. They were somewhat disappointed by his sudden departure, but soon they had other things to worry about as a  menacing thundershower was approaching from the west. Normally the girls always take shelter under the giant beech tree during a thunder shower, but this time they were in a different mood. As soon as it started to rain, they shucked off their clothes and started to dance in the pouring rain. They whirled around the forest, and even Lalita left her self-imposed 150 yards perimeter and left the little oak tree unattended. Their dance became more and more energetic while the torrential rain intensified and the thunder came frighteningly close. There was one particular bolt of lightning which was incredibly fierce, and was followed by a deafening thunder which was so powerful that it made the earth tremble. 
After the thunderstorm, everything became quiet again and the girls took some time to hug some trees of the forest. And for the very first time they felt the divine energy of the little future mother tree in each and every tree they hugged. However, after returning to the tiny oak tree, they were shocked to see that the giant beech tree split into 2 after being hit by lightning, and each half had crashed to the ground. After the initial panic, the girls were relieved to see that the tiny oak tree was unharmed … and standing in the sun for the very first time. Finally, the little tree had some space to grow …

Die Glut im Nebel, ein geheimnisvolles Licht,
verführt mich in eine Welt jenseits der Sicht.
Sie erzählt Geschichten von Liebe und Pein,
lässt mich in ihre Tiefen eintauchen und verweilen.

Im Nebelgewirr enthüllt sie Geheimnisse und Traum,
berührt meine Seele, als wär' sie ein Raum.
Die Glut im Nebel, ein Führer im Dunkeln,
zeigt mir den Weg, wenn alle anderen wanken.

Sie spendet Trost und Hoffnung in der Nacht,
verleiht meiner Existenz eine besondere Pracht.
Die Glut im Nebel, ein flüchtiges Juwel,
erfüllt mich mit Staunen und tiefstem Gefühl.

Im Sternennebel, weit und fein,
Hebst du den Kopf, lässt Träume sein.
Sterne flüstern, leise in der Nacht,
Hoffnung schimmert, hat Macht erwacht.

Kopf hoch im Kosmos, so klar und still,
Jeder Stern, der dir Hoffnung schenkt, will.
In der Unendlichkeit, so sanft und groß,
Findest du deinen Weg, frei und los.

It's been five years since I started translating my thoughts and emotions into musical sets.

During this time, I created 55 mixes called Lieblingskassetten. Each one a mosaic of melodies that together form a unique symphony and narrative. A journey into a world of wonder and magic spoken through a language that unites us all - music

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all those who have accompanied me on this journey. You who have given me the chance to perform my sets in front of an audience and you who enjoy them at home, on the road, with friends or alone. You are all part of this magical journey.

A special thanks to the talented artists and their breathtaking tracks that continue to fascinate and inspire me.

Aus Liebe

𝙻𝚒𝚎𝚋𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚜𝚔𝚊𝚜𝚜𝚎𝚝𝚝𝚎 #55 | Unter der Zauberwaldlaterne

In des Neujahrs Feuerschein,
erwacht der Geist, so klar und rein.
Liebe wacht in dieser Nacht,
fühlt sich nah, in Flammenpracht.

Das Feuer weist den Weg uns vor,
in Zukunftsträume, fern dem Tor.
Es malt in Licht, was sein mag,
in stiller Hoffnung, Tag für Tag.

Fuchsteufelswild, im Waldesrausch,
Ein Fuchs, sein Blick, in Nacht er taucht.
Mit Feuerherz und List gepackt,
Durchs Dickicht er, die Sterne wacht.

Im Mondschein tanzt er, frei, entfacht,
Ein Schattenbild, in voller Pracht.
Doch still, wenn der Morgen erwacht,
Verschwindet leise seine Macht.

𝙻𝚒𝚎𝚋𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚜𝚔𝚊𝚜𝚜𝚎𝚝𝚝𝚎 #57 | Fuchsteufelswild

Die Melodie jener Nacht, leise, sacht,
durch das Dunkel der Sterne entfacht.
Ein Lied so zart, im Mondschein gedacht,
flüstert Geheimnisse, die der Himmel bewacht.

In ihrer Weise, so rein und voller Macht,
verwebt sie Träume in der Stille der Schlacht.
Jeder Ton, ein Echo, fein gemacht,
verschlingt die Sorgen, bis der Morgen erwacht.

Sanft trägt sie die Seelen durch die Nacht,
über Zeit und Raum, wo Hoffnung lacht.
In ihrem Klang, der leise kracht,
finden Herzen Frieden, tief umdacht.

Der aus Zürich stammende @AusLiebe war schon als Kind von der Musik fasziniert. Mit übergrossen Kopfhörern lauschte er gespannt den Vinylplatten seiner Eltern und beschallte mit seinem Fisher-Price Recorder die Nachbarschaft. Die Jahre vergingen, aber die Leidenschaft für Musik blieb.

Anfangs von der Geschwindigkeit und Melancholie des Deep House berauscht, fand er auf seinen Reisen die Liebe zur Entschleunigung und zu den hypnotisch treibenden Bässen Asiens, Afrikas und Lateinamerikas.

Seine Geschichten, in welchen er hypnothische Rhythmen und sphärische Klänge zu einer tanzbaren, liebevoll verträumten Symphonie vereint, sind mal düster, mal euphorisch, mal schnell, mal langsam, aber immer aus Liebe erzählt.

@AusLiebe, who comes from Zurich, was already fascinated by music as a child. With oversized headphones, he listened intently to his parents' vinyl records and pumped up the neighbourhood with his Fisher-Price recorder. The years passed, but the passion for music remained.

Initially ecstatic with the speed and melancholy of deep house, he found a love for deceleration and the hypnotically driving basses of Asia, Africa and Latin America during his travels.

His stories, in which he combines hypnotic rhythms and spherical sounds into a danceable, lovingly dreamy symphony, are sometimes dark, sometimes euphoric, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, but always told out of love.
