This week, we’re happy to share XDB's stunning set from Dimensions ’23. Recorded live from Freerotation’s takeover of the Cosmos last summer, which set the stage perfectly for Steevio's live set afterwards.

Deep, refined and classy selections throughout, something we've come to expect and love about Kosta’s sets.

XDB - Live from Dimensions 23'

Yela’s upbringing in England exposed him to a rich and vibrant music scene, igniting his passion for electronic music. His tireless digging through vinyl collections in search of abstract and unique tracks has allowed him to curate intriguing sets, in which he is known to explore the interconnectivity between a variety of different genres, tying his selections with elements of a tribalism, intricate percussion and a touch of cinematic flair. Six years ago, Yela returned to his hometown, Antwerp in Belgium where he recently co-founded the musical passion project Oridoo together with Hofmann. Over its first editions Oridoo has featured some promising upcoming local & international DJ’s behind the turntables and aims to deliver authentic electronic musical experiences from the heart.

Gap, the Ljubljana-based digger and selector, recorded a brand new mix for us that captures a smoother kind of ride - an elegant drift through delicate rhythms and warm sonic textures. Enjoy the ride.

This Futurepast episode opens in pure film-noir fashion: smoky, enigmatic, and charged with tension.

At the turntable is Aton : DJ, producer, and vinyl obsessive for over a decade. Recorded during his warm-up for Zel at Ohm on 19.06.25, the set moves through downtempo electro and raw analog grooves, infused with warmth and record crackles. 

The mix opens with cinematic restraint, not just a collection of tracks, but a carefully paced dialogue between room, records, and instinct. From intimate atmospheres to more industrial pressure, it’s a slow burn with depth, warmth, and intent.

A dialogue between intuition, sound, and space.

Outsiders: Futurepast w/ Aton @ Kiosk Radio 08.08.2025

We are teaming up with Listen! Festival again for the 3rd year in a row to curate a stage presenting artists from the past and new talent for the future. This year’s promotional tool is something tactile and very common in the Basic Moves world… It’s a 12” vinyl record!!!

!!! ALERT !!! THIS IS A CHARITY PROJECT !!!
ALL OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS RECORD WILL GO TO Liaison Antiiprohibitionniste (www.laliaison.org), an association for people affected by drug policies. It brings together those who are confronted with the problems caused by the prohibition of certain drugs. All are convinced, from their experience, of the need to implement an alternative policy to prohibitionism.

On the A side we have 2 tracks from Casablanca-born but now Brussels (!!!) based Driss Bennis aka OCB aka Dj.Booth from the now already legendary Moroccan label Casa 

Voyager. The first track is a proper banger for the peak time hours of the after hour, while the second track on the A-side is a broken beat stepper like only he can make. Keep the funk alive Driss and welcome to Brussels!

On the B-side are 2 tracks by Basic Moves’ own Walrus dating from 8 years ago coming from a lost demo asked by a big UK label but that never left his hard drive. B1 was made barefoot and is heavily inspired by early Omar S and the rougher sounds of US house. And the B2 is an ode to the city he loves and hates at the same time. “Free city light” between a smile and a tear. Brussels.
