023 Olivas

Spanish born and now Melbourne based duo 'Olivas' is the sum of equally wonderful parts Lucia and Teresa (Modulor). Hosts of weekly radio show 'Deep Digging' on KissFM, which is a fitting name put into meaning through their eclectic and heavily electronic influenced sets, filled with rarities. This live recording at Waxflower sees a pensive journey through deep, downtempo electro, house, and dreamy acid soundscapes. Melodies from the present and past. 

¡Disfrutar!

The big man himself. 

Øyvind’s everything-but-not-anything vibe is the one. Whether a 6 hour trip, or as is the case here an hour’s peak, his selections take all the right turns. Like an unhinged sommelier, you won’t know what’s coming next. Whatever it is you won’t find it on the menu. A Bowie edit, obscure house-ish stuff, 80’s dance pop, breaks and loads more ahead. @oyvind-morken

Imagine stepping into a space that moves beyond the typical dancefloor—this is a journey of groove and soul. A fusion of DJs and dancers, vibes and voices, creating an electric exchange that resonates with the soul.

Leading the night are Antwerp’s own DTM Funk and Oko Stellar & Berlin based deejay Manolo three selectors deeply rooted in the sounds of US Black dance music. From the soulful depths of Chicago and Detroit to the rhythm-rich streets of New Orleans and New York, with fresh touches from across the African continent, they’re ready to take you on a ride.

Tropical Chill Deep House Mix 2025-Relaxing Summer Mix 1378 Beats Vibes USA

So Much Better (Deep House)

🎶 De Cimolais a Ert – Papa Boo Loo

✨ This is not a simple album. It begins with two shamanic drum pieces, BPM 176, double kick. But the structure itself is a spell:

    🔺 Triple beat (3/4): opens perception.

    🔹 Trance groove (6/8): frame drums and hand percussion.

    🔸 Powerful cycle (9/8): the door to the spirits.

The drum opens the ceremony, the door swings wide, and the dance begins. From this ritual rhythm, built on Open D tuning, we recreate the magical environment to connect with our ancestors.

🪄 The Mantra

Every track is a fractal reflection of the mantra:
 
O mama baba mama nena mama lehna
O mama baba mama nena mama lehna
O mama baba mama nena mama lehna

🌄 Baba is Ovalda, named after Mount San Osvaldo. She was my putative mother, speaking Ertano, a dialect of Ladino, very old, born in Erto, part of a magical family.

    🌿 Nena is Maddalena, her sister. We loved each other deeply, like son and mother. Tall, beautiful, green shining eyes, dark mountain skin — a woman of class and strength.

    🌙 Lehna is my daughter Lene, who died at age 11 in Milan, taken by pollution.

This album asks the world of spirits to deliver the most beautiful message to them: we never forget.
🏔️ The Place of Erto

Erto lies in Friuli Venezia Giulia, at the crossroads of three regions, yet it stands alone. Tradition says it was founded before the Roman Empire by a tribe of Cimbri women fleeing war. They found a small island in the lake and called it Eretto — “standing.”

    🔮 Refuge of prophetesses.

    🚫 Men were not welcome: violent, greedy, liars.

    🎨 Only artists were accepted: liminal beings, bridges between the realm of the dead and our world, the radio of connection.

🎤 The Production

Even though the mastering was done with Suno, we created the voices in overtuning. The producer sings with the throat technique Khoomei, perfect for this ritual sound. The result vibrates powerfully, like an ancestral call.

❤️ The Legacy

This album carries that heavy, ancient legacy. It tells my granddaughters that magic can be real — not fantasy, but memory. Memory keeps alive the magic of love.

Because at the end of the day, it is always and only a matter of love.

P.S. This work is a bridge: between Erto and America, between past and future, between the world of the living and the spirits.
