Hailing all the way from the central mountains of Colombia, Lopar ( @lopar_music ) brings deep and luscious sounds from the city of Manizales. A talented DJ in many genres, he navigates a range of styles and moods from ambient, dub and minimal to  deep & hypnotic techno & dnb. 

He began his career as a professional DJ in 2015 at Academia Decibel (Intelligent Division) in Medellin, Colombia and now is involved in local efforts as part of the "Natural" collective in Manziales to bring like-minded sounds and artists to the city, playing alongside talents like Anthony Linell & Polygonia.

Thanks so much for this lovely mix! <3

For our tenth instalment we’ve invited Jephta, a highly talented DJ from Amsterdam.
 
Jefta Wattimena, also known as Jephta, is a Dutch DJ based in Amsterdam and a resident of the Rotterdam-based organization Embodiment. His style is a hypnotic and immersive blend of driving and experimental elements. 

He firmly believes in supporting local communities and has already had the opportunity to play major festivals, acclaimed clubs, and community events throughout the Netherlands.

Aspiring to discover different scenes and cultures, Jephta is on a journey to expand his reach to the global music landscape.

Some words by Jephta about this mix:
Last year's rhytmic adventure led me to a new found passion for all sorts of break orientated sounds. 

To solidify this passion, I decided to compose a full-on dark drum 'n bass and halftime mix, consisting of my current favourite artists and labels of the genres.

Embodiment 065 - LVT

A new meditative, trippy journey by @anomali_music. Enjoy it!

Anomali is a producer and DJ from Gothenburg, focusing on deep and hypnotic techno.

After finding out how to make music with computers back in 1994, the path was clear. The electronic music revolution of the ‘90s provided endless inspiration, and soon he found a passion for house, techno, psytrance and drum & bass. Making his DJ debut in 2002 helped him discover the creative feedback loop that both performing and producing music can lead to. Following decades of honing his craft, throwing raves and DJing, in 2020 it was finally time to get serious. Deep and hypnotic techno felt just like home, combining influences from all of the incredible music he grew up with in the ‘90s with a modern approach to sound design.

With several remixes under his belt, and his debut EP released on Fur:ther Sessions, Anomali is off to a flying start. His mixes have been featured in platforms like Monument, KVLTÖ Records, Revelation of Sound, Indefinite Pitch, Charybdis and Cellar Door.
