011 - BETHAN

Refuge Worldwide 18.12.23

"thanks for letting this mix live on Hue & Saturation : ) about the energy... naturally, since this was for our lesbian ambient night (LAN) the energy was very much in that genre (as in ambient). i remember being pretty emotionally charged this evening and i really wanted to move the set like a mixtape. i also really wanted to touch on a few of the songs (actually two) that have been sitting on my usb that i rarely get the chance to play. one in particular has been a longstanding favourite for nearly a decade now.. others a lil closer to recent years. 

i love @fuzzyamb cause it’s an opportunity to play music you don’t usually get to out and i love KWIA for providing such an inviting space to do so. i’ve heard this same statement from our featured guests so far @roza-terenzi, @ccl-url, and @gabriellekwarteng. the environment is so special, i’m in awe every time."



We’ve been blessed with a recording from one of the Queer Gods themselves, the one and only Jennifer Loveless who’s been traversing dance-floors and homes across the globe for decades, but finally made the Melbourne to Berlin pipeline relocation just last year. 

This recording is taken from Fuzzy, the lesbian ambient night happening at Kwia semi-regularly and who JLO @jenniferloveless is one of the co-mummas of. This mix once again highlights her versatility and ability to encompass a full spectrum of emotions in her sets. A softer, more sentimental side of her lesser seen than her usual all-commanding, club-music dance floor sets, it’s a rollercoaster that is as beautiful as it is deep and driving.

Introducing their first release, French platform and producer Unidentified Turning Object launch the four-track 'Unidentified Turning Object 001' EP, a highly inventive statement that blends astral drone, dubby downtempo, high-energy breaks and crystalline ambient textures...Our pick for the premiere is third track, 'Menthol' thanks to its celestial aura. Ambient swells evoke the synaptic mazes of the mind, where seraphic chants entwine with shimmering string oscillations in a delicate, orchestral fog. It’s a slow-burner, a meditative homage to the more ethereal undercurrents of drum and bass, subtly nodding to Metalheadz golden era. The absence of propulsive rhythms allows the producer to plunge listeners into a liquid world, where sound drips like slow-moving water through dense, ultra-filtered frequencies.
