For the fifteenth episode of our podcast series, we are presenting a 75-minute studio recorded mix by hsnbr.

John Harutyunyan, aka hsnbr, is a producer and DJ crafting deep, hypnotic, and psychedelic soundscapes rooted in groove and subtle motion. His music is driven by atmosphere — textured, immersive, and slow-burning — inviting both introspection and dancefloor connection. With releases on Back&forth and Crescent London, hsnbr continues to shape a distinct sonic narrative that moves between shadow and light. This mix captures that vision: patient, trippy, and grounded.

Vridian is a New Delhi-based electronic music artist whose sound bridges the space between house, techno, and psychedelic influences. With over a decade of experience in electronic music—seven years under the Vridian moniker—he has become a prominent voice in India’s underground scene.

His releases on labels like Qilla Records, Manjumasi, 39 Records, and Amaylia have garnered widespread acclaim, with remixes from esteemed artists such as Christopher Ledger, Map.Ache, Mihai Popoviciu, Markus Homm, and Io Mullen. In 2022, he released his first vinyl record with the label Manjumasi. His music has found its way into the sets, mixes, and radio shows of legends like Andrew Weatherall, Roman Flügel, Jonathan Kaspar, Traumer, John Digweed, and Hernán Cattáneo.

A regular fixture at clubs and festivals across India, Vridian has also delivered all-original live sets at prestigious events like Magnetic Fields and Echoes of Earth. Beyond his own productions, he curates the party series Don’t Feed The Animals, fostering a space where sonic exploration thrives. His artistic ethos embraces hybridity in musical styles, fluidity in life’s journeys, and a touch of whimsy—always pushing the boundaries of deep, mesmeric, and groove-driven electronic music.
