Few producers in India are capable of making the dance floor as hypnotic as dotdat. His secret is a dark, ambiguous strain of minimal techno that reaches deep inside the trenches of your mind and body; you could call it almost meditative. He made his debut at an Odd Recordings showcase in Barcelona in 2017 and it's his nuanced art that is the driving force behind dotdat's eminence as a producer.

His latest mix for Wild City, featuring artists such as Shlomi Aber, Architectural and Dario Zenker, offers an insight into dotdat’s current mood and inspiration. He maintains high energy throughout the mix as he seamlessly transitions from one track to the other. Intelligent and deep techno converge for a subliminal interaction of the senses.

Tasnneem's mix for Wild City is a ball of sunshine and monsoons all at the same time. It bears an inexplicable warmth, which comes from the soulful, melodic deep house that dominates the set, but offers shades of contemplative, deep moods and ambiences that are somewhat bright and dark at the same time.

Such a compilation of tracks is typical of Tasnneem, who owes her success as a DJ primarily to this warm, melodic, and disparate energy she brings to her sets – offering music both as an escape, and as a dance reckoning.

A lush, ambient track with a saturated, emotive atmosphere sets the mood for the rest of the mix, which remains downtempo and ambient. However, that doesn't mean this set can exclusively be enjoyed sitting at home – there's an undeniable danceable quality throughout the mix, which comprises of tracks by the likes of Modd, Christian Loeffler, George X and more, making this the ideal sundowner set.

Those of you familiar with Rohit Tandon aka Sepoys' monthly 'Verdura Vibes' podcast on boxout.fm may associate him with soothing jazz-leaning tracks, lo-fi hip hop and relaxing downtempo mixes.

As a producer, however, Sepoys is very much inclined towards making liquid drum 'n' bass. That's not to say it's very hard-hitting d'n'b either. His unique strain of liquid drum 'n' bass comes with ambient overtones and distinct melodic lines, occasionally making way for jungle.
The Vancouver-based Indo-Canadian producer, DJ and art director, previously based in Goa, started out as a scratch DJ, before getting into house, downtempo and lounge. The liquid d'n'b that defines his sound is only a fairly recent development and one that he's getting quite skilled at.

Intricately designed, Sepoys' productions are informed by engaging beats and immersive atmospheres. His mix for Wild City comprises largely of his own releases, with infrequent interjections by tracks from India-based drum 'n' bass artists Watashi, Crash Comet, The Untitled One and Aditya Malve x Quistek. There's a steady rhythm throughout the mix, a unifying percussion that keeps you engaged, and subtle changes of pace that offset potential boredom with intrigue.

The past few days in New Delhi have been decidedly dreary – cold and wet, with a lingering blanket of rain. It's also the ideal weather to park yourself by the window and sit back and reflect, and Sugam Khetan aka 4lienetic's mix for Wild City is perfectly suited to that.

Dark and ambient, with spatters of ethereal sounds of nature and rain, the mix pulls you deep into a contemplative trance right from the get-go. That's to be expected, as the hour-long set comprises almost solely of 4lienetic's original music, exceptions being a couple of remixes and edits.

The Mumbai-based producer, who creates music under the monikers 4lienetic and 2 A.M Talk, has been prolific with his releases, which range across the spectrum of ambient, future garage and chill out music. Influenced by artists like Brian Eno, Nils Frahm, Burial and Olafur Arnalds, his tracks are particularly emotive and lay heavy emphasis on ambience and piano.

The mix starts off with deep, melancholic tracks, laden with liquid atmospheres and compelling textures. However, the solemnity intermittently parts to reveal flecks of light, offering glimmers of hope in an otherwise dreary ambience. This is music meant for quiet reflection and patience, to be consumed with heavy doses of contemplation. And it's a rewarding experience – especially as the ambient music gradually melts into drone and future garage, which comes as a welcome, wholly satisfying change.

Hi, Biorhythm is the artist name for a music producer and a person whom studies evolutionary biology. Whilst music can inspire through feeling and make people move, it can also be used to communicate. Though just like any language, the value of that communication can differ. For example, a simple made up story (a narrative) can provide an interesting way to entertain. Or information based on a tried and tested method could provide worthwhile facts regarding human health that maybe of even higher value. e.g., Science based information.
What's important is that the receiver of the information(the listener, the reader, the watcher etc.)has developed the best cognitive tools(thoughts) in order to evaluate any particular information. This depends on the context (type of information being offered) of the language/music. for example, if a person tells you that something is true, why should you believe them on mere face value?. Because they have prestige?,e.g.,Money?. There are ways trust can be built where people learn to have confidence in the words of others. However, people lie and are confused about facts all the time! (even when they don't realise their incorrect or are lying on purpose in order to deceive you for their own gain).So how can any trust in any communication be believed?. 
This question has been successfully answered over human history(The enlightenment). The answer is Science & reason. Science users systematic methods that have been shown to be a reliable way(in general)to gather trust worthy information. Science isn't an absolute truth, a faith based ideology where some preacher of a religion may try to make you believe in what they believe (though never explain what that "truth" actually consists of). Science is a measure of confidence in information. Similar in some way to how a person can learn to trust another person over time due to them being reliable, thus earning trust. Scientists generally trust science and the practitioners of science (scientists research papers) because their facts have been gathered using reliable methods. If any particular scientific facts are based on weak or false evidence, over time they will be weeded out of the system (scientific consensus). Similar to how non trust worthy people may get found out over time due to social gossip (though that’s not a very good example (analogy) as even trust worthy people can be slandered to seem non trust worthy by the spreading of lies).
Of course this is an over simplification as I'm writing this in the style of  a 'scientifically ignorant (not having sufficient knowledge base)audience'. 
However, big changes begin with small increments (steps), if you really don't know your Oxygen from your Glucose, your Air from your Rock, your Muscle cells from your your Brain cells, your subjective delusions (fantasy believed in) from your evidence based facts, than start small (read a few newbie biology book) and aim massive (cosmology). And don't let your own psychological ego's stunt your intelligence. People become more intelligent by asking questions and become intellectually stunted by ignoring the types of questions that insult their all ready held belief's (dogma’s). False presumptions (emotional narratives) like religious faiths and many area's of politics are holding back humanities potential and have been since a better method of learning was discovered (science).
Science is the future as much as it's present discoveries have enabled me to send you this communication electronically. Science is basically a tool. Like any tool, it can be used for the good of everyone or not.   
In summary. Listen and continue to ask questions (learn) and be critical (question without fear) of those whom refuse to learn and command that you should believe and act as they do (The ignorant preaching their love of ignorance quite often through repression and hiding their lack of intelligence behind insult).
