When nature encounters the synthetic, a poetic harmony of strings and melodies emerges.

this installment features our dear friend, ariana gray bé (@agraybe) 💜

we invited her not only because she's a master selector, but also because we've also spent many nights cooking together, lamenting over environmental racism and reimagining a more sustainable life. ari had a hand in both auditory and gustatory portions of this installment, during which we had a grand time putting our heads together to make magic. thank you ari!

please enjoy her contemplations & delve into au(o)ral pleasure~

.:::

this mix is the sensorial result of the following:

“stone, soil, passion, symbiosis”

imagine what earth’s subsurface might sound like.

sink under ground with me for this mix.
engulf in soil, slithering insects, rocks and debris.
weave through tangling roots, cross through strata.

imagine now the work of humans in here.
pipes bisect an intricate network of roots.
soil replaced with concrete. ecosystems expunged.

the word, symbiosis, brings up pessimism in this context.

drilling, uprooting. depleting, consuming.
devouring more and more.

humankind (as it exists today) is earth’s parasite.

can humanity remedy it's relationship with earth before deeply disturbing everything in it’s path?

HORROR OF A MAN MERGES BAD WEATHER. HE BRINGS PEOPLE TO AN EARLY GRAVE WITH A SMILE. MAKES MUSIC FALL DOWN THE STAIRS.

Nosedrip's Breakfast Show @ Kiosk Radio 06.09.2024

Thomas Oomen is a Dutch-Bolivian record collector and music aficionado based in Amsterdam. His selections blend intricate Fourth World textures, experimental electronics, ambient, cosmic jazz, and drone rhythm structures, creating realms that explore the connection between culture, nature, technology, and sound. Drawing inspiration from his multicultural upbringing, Thomas is deeply influenced by diverse cultural landscapes and the symbiosis between modern and traditional approaches to music. This exposure shapes his selections, infusing them with the emotional depth of ritualistic rhythms and the futurism of modern electronics, guiding listeners through genre-defying soundscapes.

The first motion cast of 2021  comes from SSIEGE. The mix he shared features a handful of unreleased originals / music from friends. Refreshingly sparse and evocative sounds put together with a very gentle touch. Well suited for wandering around mentally or physically.
