such a joyride! perfect for cooking and eating and laughing and thinking of moments of joyful times...

this mix is so beautiful, such a wonderful selection

Milan based duo Simone Baratta and Nicolò Chenet are the force behind mysterious DJ outfit Orion. Alongside their principal cognomen, active since 2018, they’ve also banded together with Giegling’s Ateq as Pale Product for further excursions into their sonic universe. As a pair they’ve been largely flying under the radar, but perhaps not for long, their all too danceable sound is a deep, persistent fusion of influences destined for the club (take their residency at Milanese haunt Vitamina for instance). You could add their eponymous label to that too, where a growing number of ‘slow-release’ records attest to their predilection for quality over quantity. Bassiani Podcast 185 is their live set recorded at Horoom mid-September: think intimate and smoke-filled afterhours gatherings and pure camaraderie among a close-knit group of ravers. A high spirited trip across the dancefloor from saturated and dubby ambient to Detroit inclinations, courtesy of this budding techno pairing.

BASSIANI PODCAST SERIES

Bassiani invites Orion [live] / Podcast #185

While ardently busy with his new musical output Pale Product in collaboration with milan-based production duo Orion and his own sounddesign studio as well, Ateq finds a way and time respectively to record a breathtaking instalment for Zenaari. Florian Lepa’s pulsating beats and innovative mixes have already woven an indelible thread into the fabric of Bassiani history throughout the years and this time with Zenaari, he conscientiously delivers a fresh, beautifully-put-together mix of sound palettes as one of the finest sound architects. Zenaari mix 006 is a waltzing quest through heartfelt and colorful soundscapes, archival sounding vocals to droning pads, and melancholy synths that roll in and out like waves lapping on a cosmic shore. Contemplative electronic soundtrack for both mind and soul, a crowning addition to the Zenaari event series’ fledgling oeuvre.

Zenaari Mix 006 - Ateq

We're elated to introduce our very special guest for the SPANDAU20 mixtape: @Efdemin 📼. A true legend in the electronic music scene, Efdemin embarked on his musical journey with his debut release in 2004, followed by his first album in 2006. Based in Berlin, he's not only a resident at the iconic Berghain club but also the curator of his vinyl-only label, naïf. His music is an embodiment of serenity and sophistication, characterized by an elegant darkness, subtle beauty, and a sense of unwavering composure. Efdemin's impressive discography spans LPs and 12-inch records on renowned labels like Dial, Curle, and Ostgut Ton. His versatility extends to remixes, including a memorable one for Depeche Mode, as well as his collaborative project Pigon with RNDM, and his exploration of drone and ambient soundscapes under his original name, Phillip Sollmann. 🎧

Efdemin's SPANDAU20 mixtape offers an immersive auditory journey, commencing with a potent voice sample from the celebrated artist Tracey Emin. The mixtape's sonic landscape is characterized by atmospheric elements, including the gentle sounds of birds, creating a serene and captivating ambiance. As the mixtape unfolds, it seamlessly transitions from ambient to deep, rhythmic beats. Its character is defined by sultry, groovy rhythms, complemented by the warmth of synthesizers that envelop the listener like a sonic embrace. Efdemin's deft use of vocal shots adds yet another layer of depth and intrigue, resulting in a rich tapestry of sound that promises a truly engaging experience for electronic music enthusiasts.🖤

Fresh off the release of his brilliant sophomore album, Martinou gives us the perfect soundtrack to the changing seasons - whichever part of the world you're in. Sink in, let the cozy melodies wash over you and enjoy the ride. 

A note from the artist himself about the mix:

"The mix is made up of music I adore, with a majority of the music forthcoming for the winter and next year. Some tracks by friends, some by me, and some by a combination of the two."

Simone Baratta and Nicolò Chenet’s Orion is back on podcast duties, this time for experimental series Zenaari. The tandem’s dancier inclinations are a little more explored, but here they’re given space to investigate another raft of musical leanings. This one’s quite special, and a good example for what the Zenaari concept is at heart: a cross-genre exploration in sound that pushes the limits of established taste and composition, and above all provokes thought. Loaded with ideas, this foray spans a breadth of references, from Hasselian drones, to creaking melodies, to downtempo Italian crooning, and leaves out hi-tech mixing and glitzy effects in favour of a more raw and bluntly sequential approach to mix building. In truth, the pair have rifled through an eclectic archive of music from their native land and created an extraordinary emotional collage that’s heavy on nostalgia without tipping the scales too far into sentimentality. Affecting, but with the occasional flutter of a bassline as a reminder that this polymath duo’s there pulling the levers. Zenaari Mix 008 is a nonpareil mix from this enigmatic Milanese duo, one that’s sure to leave a mark.

It’s back to the land of house for Bassiani Podcast 195 and Jens Kuhn’s Lowtec alias is the name responsible. All through the 2010s, his (and sparring partner Even Tuell’s) Workshop imprint was a go-to publisher for sanguine electronics, releasing records from the likes of Move D and Kassem Mosse (Kuhn’s occasional collaborator as half of double-act Kolorit) as well as his own work. He often feels the call of other genres, sometimes bundling paragon house with ambient segues on the same LP. His eccentric approach to music making is often conceptual, but by luck accessible to the average musical layperson: easy on the ears and playful, even in its more meditative configurations. This latest mix sees him donning one of his more crowd-pleasing personas, funky and whimsical beats the warp, circling synths the weft: two hours twenty minutes worth of pure electronic optimism recorded live at Morevi Record’s 4th anniversary at Horoom.

Kicking off the year under the best auspices, here comes a threat of a mix from German producer Vril. Known for his nostalgia-soaked strain of big-room techno and impeccably textured audio trips, the Giegling and Delsin stalwart lays down a proper magnetic hour-and-a-half of floor-focussed dynamics, packing the very type of steel-clad punch and vaporous atmospheres we enjoy so much here at RYC. A perfect start to the new year, Vril’s ever minutely engineered mix of hot-tempered grooves and deep cinematic immersion will have you both zoning out and sweating off all that extra fat put on during the holiday, while setting your sight onto the next revolution with the poise and heartiness to achieve your goals in 2024 and beyond. Happy new year to you, RYC fellows!

"The lights went off and we decided to start."
We are deeply excited to share Donato and Marco’s grand finale for the last edition of Terraforma at Villa Arconati. With great humbleness, these two masters and dear friends have carefully broadened and lulled, record after record, an intimate space of trust, exchange and deep-time connection. 
 
Also, we’d like to add a fond memory that was shared with us a few days after:

“Dozzy and Shuttle’s finale unfolded like twilight. A prolonged dusk caressed by an eerie drizzle. Shadows and whispers echoing with the surroundings. Synapses slowly reaching the ground, merging and becoming one with the underground rhizomatic networks. A memorable rendez-Nous within a fractal space. It felt like being at the core center of the matrix, enveloped by a warmth reminiscent of a maternal womb. I found myself in a weightless suspension, envisioning the past, the present and the future, all together in a blink of an eye.”

We are fueled by gratitude for all this beauty.
