E2-E8 w/ Luca & Formant Value

April begins with another lovely ambient journey! Welcome to Echo & Rauschen!

Based in Potsdam, Germany, Alex is a music enthusiast and cassette collector with Estonian roots. Intrigued by tropical mysterious sounds, electronic soundscapes, and world music, Echo & Rauschen explores the realm of organic sounds in combination with deep ambient electronic vibes. Compiled between Autumn 2022 & Spring 2023, he prepared for us a musical odyssey of almost 3 hours in which you can lose and find yourself again.

Enjoy!

"This mix was recorded in Tainan, Taiwan, just before the Lunar New Year—a time of reflection, shedding the old, and welcoming renewal. This is the time around Dahan (Major Cold), the final breath of the 24 solar terms, it marks the deepest chill of the year. In this longest night of winter, may the fire within guide us toward the returning light."

"The realization that life is absurd cannot be an end, but only a beginning." 
— albert camus

❊

This mix serves as the soundtrack to a chapter in my life during which I grew increasingly attuned to the absurdity of the world. It tells the story of my ongoing quest for belonging in a place that felt both comforting and unforgiving—an environment that, no matter how welcoming it seemed at times, never fully made sense. As I began to reconnect with myself, I noticed how much of my energy was spent molding myself in an attempt to find belonging, only to realize that this effort fuelled greater struggle and inner conflict. The harder I fought for control, the more I encountered resistance.

Ultimately, the journey culminates in a moment of surrender, where peace is found in embracing the ridiculousness of life and accepting that reality is beyond explanation—a profound realization that life is simply about being, sparking a renewed love for its chaotic, irrational beauty.

Campfire Stories 55 (Winter's Spell) by @XEED

~ About The Story ~

No sooner has he woken up in the morning than he feels the day beginning to slip away from him. There is no light to sink his teeth into, no sense of time unfolding. Rather, a feeling of doors being shut, of locks being turned. It is a hermetic season, a long moment of inwardness. The outer world, the tangible world of materials and bodies, has come to seem no more than an emanation of his mind. He feels himself sliding through events, hovering like a ghost around his own presence, as if he were living somewhere to the side of himself - not really here, but not anywhere else either. A feeling of having been locked up, and at the same time of being able to walk through walls. He notes somewhere in the margins of a thought: a darkness in the bones. — Paul Auster
