RA.500 Nicolas Jaar

Für die Ewigwachgebliebenen zum Feierabendbier, für die Frühaufsteher als Seelenfutter zum Wochenbeginn: Montagssorbet mit Laut & Luise. Alles erlaubt, was gut tut und Gedanken kreisen lässt, nur der Name ist Programm: cremig, fluffig und ganz schön weich.

Ein neues Jahr beginnt, schon wieder von vorn, und Déjà-vu und je ne comprends pas reichen sich die Hand und winken den verwirrten Kreisläufern. Auch schon so, doch gerade jetzt, um so schöner und famöser, dass @WIDE-AWAKE-8 mal ganz weit wach zusammen am Flügel saßen: Neue Musik aus eigener Feder, ganz bezaubernd und ganz weit vorne, vertraut aber unbekannt.

»Mit Uns« dazu am Klavier durch den Himmel aus Kerosin. So könnte jedes Jahr beginnen.

(Intro: Corni & David)

Episode two sees my travelling toes forage through Chile.
From this height I can see the snowy Andes peaks and the desert of Atacama - the heat is truly simmering over Valparaiso, I can safely say i'm in South America.

Here's something a bit different that i've been working on for the past couple of years. At some point the mix kind of seemed like one of those things that i wouldnt stop changing, based solely on the fact that i'm always waiting for new music and ways to improve the mix. This however was turning out to be an endless cycle. Yesterday i decided to finish it just as it is. Hopefully it made the right call :)

Groove Podcast 94 - Earthen Sea

So this is a very personal and from the heart dj mix from the Chill Stage at the ever life changing Rainbow Serpent Festival this year. I started working on this mix as soon as I got home from last years festival and is a direct sequel to the one that was so well received. There is a bit of a novel below, so cut it short and listen now if you can't be bothered hearing some twaddle... or press play and have a read of what made this mix.

In the past year I have only tried furthered my skills in djing and have only cemented my love for the craft and eternal drive I have for music and getting it out to everyone who wants to hear it. I have also found solice in my choice to be a dj and not produce anything myself (not to say I won't)... because almost every sound I want to hear is out there ten fold, I just remind myself  to be a proper dj and dig the electronic music shops like I did the vinyl stores of Melbourne years ago. My colleagues however are another story as you will see below.

The aim of any true DJ should be the promotion of great music, how you give it to people is the artform, but at its base I believe a DJ should know they are playing other peoples music and be happy to get it out to as many people as possible. When your true friends have music worthy of this kind of thing, it makes a person like myself get very teary in the best sort of way.... SO, if you have not really heard the first of my mentioned producers, then you need to take the time to catch him and all his monikers.... 
https://soundcloud.com/fergus01 aka
https://soundcloud.com/theoddness
Four tracks of The Oddness features in this mix and it was hard not to put the 5th one on the EP in there as well... I chose The Weeknd to easily mix in and out of Ferg's beats and I honestly hear just as good if not better production on my homies side....

Most people in Melbourne know this next artist, whether it having gone to one of his mind bending events or catching a set of raw techno from this guy who has dedicated his life to the scene and it's music. 
https://soundcloud.com/djmuska
His remix of the theme music to Requiem for a Dream is a big part of the mix and represents so much to me of this journey in the Melbourne music scene, I used to close Lounge with the same remix 6 or so years ago.  He has many big releases due as well as an album if I am not mistaken, so check him out and get on a dusty dancefloor next time you see the Organic Audio logo on an outdoor music event's flyer.

Lastly, but probably mostly is a great friend of mine and someone that has been outputting world class production for years but is only really know getting some of the props he has deserved for so many years....
https://soundcloud.com/auramechanic
His track Iridology is the final track of the mix and only took that position because the production level is so high it just made everything I put it with sound unfinished....

If you have bothered to read, thankyou. Thankyou if you caught my set at Rainbow and Thankyou if you have ever caught a set of mine anywhere and it has brightened your day or night. Whether there is 2 people or 1000, I will always be a dj and keep trying to push the craft and myself every fucken day, music is life and getting to play it to anyone is a gift.... so called 'djs' who don't respect it and are in it for a glory thing.... we can see you and so can the crowds.

only love a truth from this ratbag.

Rainbow 2017

Rainbow Serpent Chill Stage Set

When I started MOONTIDE I intended to to tell stories through everything i did under the name from tracks, to ep’s, to dj sets. At Rainbow i decided to delve into the last year of my life and find tracks that i resonated with at different times through out the year to tell the story of 2016. Some sections are dark, some are full of love, its probably the most raw thing i’ve done to date so in turn was kind of hard to post! But after so many beautiful messages from everyone i thought I would share it  :)

The set is split into 3 sections that symbolise Heartache, Rebirth and the present.

Im super grateful to have been able to present this music at such an amazing event, thanks also to Ryan for doing a spoken word piece during the set as well xx 

Much love,
Louis  :)

≈ Seasidetrip 100 ≈ the chosen ones ≈ Rafaele Castiglione, Erlangen (GER)

Ahoy
for this anniversary I was able to win a good friend, a person who has an excellent feeling for beautiful sounds and deep beats. I feel honored that https://soundcloud.com/rafaele_castiglione has created the 100th mix.  Thank You, Rafaele - Thanks to all the other 99 seasidetrip-artists and THANKY YOU and YOU and YOU. 

And please take it easy that I write less to him and I left a few more personal words about the Seasidetrip - as my beloved grandpa was telling me: »you know, little roland(son) to sailing is dead but the sailor has it done. cause a sailor has to what a sailor has to do. cause it has to do with passion and if you have passion you are the richest person of the world. It’s a hard job, but the moments on the deck when the wind blows in your face, when you hear the waves and you see the vastness of the sea, these moments will give you more than all the money in the world.« and so I devote a great part of my being and doing, my beloved grandparents. 

It started with a mix about emotions & music by the sea and that's the point till today. at the beginning captain https://soundcloud.com/rolandson did not think it would be 100mixes. this all (the mix-series, the netlabel - releases and showcases) is a result of a momentary feeling in 2012. music and to be at the ocean, It helped me through a hard time and I decided spontaneously to make it audible. in first case for me at second for friends. and yeah, some good friends liked the idea, became part of it, created their version and helped to understand some things.
And so, the Seasidetrip - Mixseries emerged and grew up and grew and brought me together with many lovely human beings. I am VERY THANKFUL for every journey, every listener and follower, for every comment and interaction … and I am grateful for everything that has come out of it - on negative or in a positive way - everything is part of that trip.

Yes, I think; for many of you, the Seasidetrip is about music and to bring wonderful sounds to your ears and into your hearts. and it’s good that it is what it is. but please, think by that: it’s not about: how many plays & likes each mix generates - it’s about: which story each mix tells - it’s all about the passion and not about a hype or a hip music direction. And in that, for me it is still a very personal project and journey - and that’s why it is so important to me, to knew each artist on deck and to stay in touch as much as i can. and if you agree with, you are highly WELCOME …

Seasidetrip 100 | the chosen ones | Rafaele Castiglione

Our next urban cosmic-cast was mixed by an artist who needs no introduction. 

Mimi Love has played herself into the hearts of countless people all over the globe with her signature sound and unforgettable gigs. Her sets are diverse and distinct, and have been known to move people’s hearts and feet in equal measure wherever she plays.
Although she can often be found discovering unknown territories, Berlin is the place where she loves to take off and land. As a member of the infamous Bachstelzen crew and resident DJ at Katerblau, she is deeply rooted in the German capital, where she has been playing many different roles in “this theatre called underground” for the past 10 years.

Her heartwarming style encompasses both slow and fast vibes, spanning a mixture of electronica-ethno, soft rock - downtempo hiphop all the way to what she calls pop-techno. This podcast is peek into her colourful collection, a mix that showcases the different kinds of music she has collected over the past months. It shows us a side of Mimi Love that we don’t always get to see in clubs - one that we’ve very happy to be able to experience for ourselves with her specially curated mix for Urban Cosmonaut Radio. Let’s spread the love for Mimi <3

Downtown Friesheim

@rolandson – Germany.

Ahoy there! The ship of awareness is taken by none other than our beloved Captain Rolandson, and it’s about to sail to ambient & downtempo waters. A journey called »vindspel« (Swedish for wind chimes).

“I name it »vindspel« ‘cause I love to stand in nature and feel the wind around my head. To listen what he whispers to me when he rushes through the trees and plants. Also, in the interplay with the sun or the rain, the wind is very important for nature and also for me. He brings silence into my thoughts, in my head. It feels like he took all my feelings & thoughts away and leave me with my inner peace”.

Rolandson is a soul we admire; a crafter of atmospheres, a bridge between worlds and a music research specialist. Connect your heart with his, in the end, it is the same heart.

Besides his work as DJ, he’s also head of Seasidetrip, a beautiful podcast series and label with plenty quality electronica. Rolandson is also resident DJ at Rituel Recordings Paris, and part of his beloved crews @slowereastside and @drosssel; the first, a collective with the purpose of spreading the world with downtempo and slowmotion music and the second, a supercollective / label made of great labels (inception-ish, yeah); @lump-rec, @casacaos, @rolandsons-seasidetrip, @slowereastside and @cosmic-awakenings are part of it, so you get the picture.

“Buscamos un sueño, creemos en algo. Viajamos en el tiempo y en el espacio. No es ningún secreto, todo está en ti”.

---------------------------

The geometry of the universe, expressed through the worship of the four directions, is one of the most important ideas of Aztec cosmology. The universe is conceived as the union of four constituent parts of the cosmos in a conceptual pivot through which heaven, the four directions of Earth and the underworld communicate along an axis mundi. Hence, the Aztec space was conceptualized as a vast horizontal disk surrounded by water and intersected by a perpendicular axis conceived as a series of layers.

The Aztecs integrated these concepts into architecture and urban design by skewing their sites clockwise from cardinal directions in order to record sunrises in autumn and winter and sunsets in spring and summer.
