Ambient Sets - Philip Sherburne

"Floating state within various ambient atmospheres. From celestial surroundings to earthly airs. This journey comprises a whole, a time span that aims to describe an abstract landscape, without a specific roadmap yet with meaning. From an empty (balmat in catalan) space of time, a sketch of textures and infinite sensations has been outlined. Bon appetit."

Balmat (@balmat_cat) is a new label with a cloudy outline.
Jointly shepherded by Albert Salinas (@wooky) and Philip Sherburne (@psherburne), two friends living in Cardedeu, Catalonia, and on the Balearic island of Menorca, Balmat grew out of Lapsus Radio, a weekly show on Spain’s Radio 3 (https://www.rtve.es/play/audios/lapsus). Balmat’s mission is simple: to foster new ideas, expand upon personal obsessions, and put enveloping sounds out into the world.
“Balmat” means “empty” or “void” in Catalan. But quite apart from any negative connotations, we prefer to think of it in terms of possibility: a space waiting to be filled.

Albert Salinas and Philip Sherburne founded the Balmat label in 2021 after three years as co-hosts of Lapsus Radio, a weekly show on Spain’s Radio 3. Balmat’s mission is simple: to foster new ideas, expand upon personal obsessions, and put all-encompassing sounds out into the world. But where Lapsus Radio focuses on a wide range of electronic sounds, encompassing everything from IDM to techno to footwork, the duo’s sets together typically skirt the edges of the dancefoor, if not steering clear of it altogether.

True to the experimental spirit of Mediterranean and Balearic electronic traditions, Balmat DJs are interested in creating enveloping environments that incorporate ambient music, atmospheric soundscaping, and low-BPM rhythms—music with a cloudy outline yet a distinct sensibility.

Last Resort w/ Balmat 051024

~ Deep Breakfast 308 by https://soundcloud.com/blind-observatory ~

We're thrilled to introduce the incredible German DJ and music producer, Blind Observatory.

Blind Observatory is a highly talented DJ, music producer, designer, and visual artist whose creative work delves deeply into themes of science fiction, futurism, and astronomy. Inspired by the captivating idea of viewing dance floors as "observatories for the blind," his name embodies a guiding principle and serves as a meaningful reminder for David as he explores the vastness and solitude of the universe. His unique artistic approach, combined with an intuitive sense of the energy and flow of a night, enables him to skillfully navigate the delicate emotional spectrum between sadness and joy. This ability has earned him a well-deserved reputation as a true "DJ’s DJ" — someone who understands the art of moving a crowd on a profound level. Since 2024 he is running https://soundcloud.com/gravitational-multiplex together with Vincent Neumann, where he recently released his first solo ep in almost a decade https://gravitationalmultiplex.bandcamp.com/album/entropy-of-me

"With this one I wanted to be it a lush summer mix so I was aiming for a slight water theme. Drifting and Floating. Lots of ripples, droplets, reflections and swirls. Tidal movements and waves with a wiggly undercurrent."

1. Love Over Entropy - Fortysix [SoHaSo, 2025]

TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.store/blogs/news/store-mix-9

One year since his previous edition, @antepop returns with Store Mix #9 — an all-vinyl mix navigating through some of the most sought after records that have recently graced the shelves of Inverted Audio Record Store. Recorded live at Brixton Brewery Taproom on Friday 9th May 2025, the mix seamlessly blends ambient, downtempo, experimental, dub techno, and deep house — conjuring a rich tapestry of atmospheres and emotions. Tune in, zone out.

STORE MIX #9

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/wrecked-lightship

Following the release of their second album last year, Adam Winchester and Laurie Osborne return as Wrecked Lightship on Peak Oil with their latest album 'Drained Strands', opening the hallowed doors of their submarine to all types of distorted fantasies.

As the name suggests, @wreckedlightship carries fractured memories of vessels forgotten in vast expanses, from the sea and beyond. The weight of their work conjures images of desolate landscapes beyond human reach, yet their invitation into this sonic vision becomes a ticket to inhabit the very space of extraterrestrials.

'Drained Strands' withholds a kind of extraordinary beauty that is more often felt than heard. This combined performance unit of solo acts Appleblim & Wedge exists in an untethered vortex - one built from scattered electronics and bruised hearts. All of this culminates in IA MIX 392, a studio mix where heavy scores of bass and a plethora of textures, some borrowed and some unheard, bubble together in a melting pot of comfort and disorder.
