Circulating Wave

Anodynic Frequencies

For the 11th edition of “Circulating Waves” we are happy to welcome a very like-minded musician and DJ: Kontinum.

Growing up, just like us, in an underground rave scene his dedication to Techno came through the musical driven experience of collectively transcending the known borders in devoting all energy to the moment of here and now. With his Nebula crew he shook the underground with numerous events in Leipzig and beyond.
Fastly the typical dry and straight forward club sound was wearing out for him and he was longing to create his own, deeper, hypnotic interpretation of Techno, which he got to present on well-known institutions like Agos, Lowless, The Gods Planet, Crescent London, NFEREE or Space Textures over the years. 
In 2022 his new label will see the light and we are excited for everything coming from his direction in the future!

This mix reduces Techno to its essential elements and represents his typical sound aesthetics. It relies on seemingly endless repetitive loops, deep basslines, subtle, minimalistic percussion paired with weird, psychedelic noises and ghostly arpeggios which will introduce you to a meditative yet stimulating atmosphere. 
Dive into a hypnotic journey of its own!

While winter announces its arrival through tangibly thick fog and cold blowing breezes, it is time for the next episode of our Circulating Waves series. And what could fit this season-changing vibes better than a flawless mix by Marcella. 

The Ingolstadt-based is a well-known face of the city's nightlife, where she's holding a residency at the local club institution Suxul for more than seven years now. Together with her partner in crime Drew, the talented twenty-something also hosted the event series 'Artefakt' welcoming guests like Answer Code Request, Antigone, Kobosil or Etapp Kyle. Since 2017 she was also part of the MMA (MixedMunichArts) artist family in Munich, where she played alongside numerous Techno heavyweights like Radio Slave, Helena Hauff or Randomer. After the MMA had to close in 2019, she was regularly moving the dancefloor at Blitz Club in Munich.

Marcella perfectly combines fast moving forward Techno with deep, melancholic soundscapes to a ground shaking and mind twisting mix.
Its backbone is a perfectly crafted build-up, starting from the very depths of the vortex, where only particles are floating, to explore deeper, billowing grounds underlaid with mystical atmospheres to finally release some proper hypnotic bombs.

Circulating Waves #012 - Marcella

Our next artist we are honored to host is a immense talent based in Denver, CO. Influenced by the deeper sounds of techno, atmospheric, and most things unconventional, she views the art of mixing as a spiritual practice that seeks to "balance relationship to mind and body. Her sets lean in the direction of storytelling, turning the moment's vibe into sonic passages, usually with a dark and moody undertone that reveal splashes of light and space to feel. For the next hour we are very pleased to present you @ninitia aka иιиιт'α

After nearly one year has passed since the launch of our very own podcast-series “Circulating Waves” it is time for the 13th episode. A year full of great music and profound mind wandering together is behind us! Thank you for that, we are looking for everything lying ahead.

After many years of being musically influenced by the Berlin club scene, Reign. started finally producing electronic music himself. Initially as part of the duo disørda, he started to release music under his second pseudonym in 2019. He soon was able to place his creations on important labels like Emphatic, Concrete Records and Aarden. His musical identity has ever been evolving, from a raw industrial to today's deep and hypnotic sound.

For this anniversary Reign. will take us on a journey into the very depths of the vortex. A wall of sound which you would expect only in the lowest areas of the sea: Driven by broken rhythms, flying drones, quirky noises and backed by dark, floating atmospheres this definitely travels you far distances deep beneath the surface! 
Are you ready to dive into the hypnotic abyss?

Our next artist started more than a decade ago collecting and mixing music.  His background and taste is always gravitated towards underground & psychedelic music, but over past few years he understood the wider range of sounds that techno can express. Pursuing this new found love and appreciation his most recent sessions have cultivated a mixture of deeper blends of hypnotic and mental explorations of sound. He most recently released a podcast called Altrove. As for this journey he sets the mood with elongated transitions and subtle builds of pulsating rhythms an heady ambience.

First “Circulating Waves” mix of the year is coming from high up north!

Based in Oslo but feeling at home on the road, it is no surprise that Capodanna also knows how to properly make you travel on music. She was always extremely passionate about music and knew that she wanted to express herself through it. Then the vision for her first mix appeared in January last year. Not much later it was born and got published through her own channels. That’s when her musical odyssey really began.

Since then one year has passed and although new to the game she was able to easily convince podcast- and party-hosters like Dazedspoon, New New Nordic Burn or Extra Delicious with her precise mixing and organic track selection.

This mix is solid craftswomenship paired with well-chosen hypnotic gems to put you in a state of mind where the journey heading into infinite space is just one step away!

Our vessel is navigating through the cold sea of a seemingly never ending winter. Thick clouds of fog and icy waves are to be broken through. Frost covers everything around us, darkness being upon us, most of the day.
Soothing to have Artjom Schmidt as our trusted helmsman for this journey, guiding us through all vagaries that lie ahead.

As DJ and producer from Augsburg, he discovered his enthusiasm for electronic music 13 years ago. First being more into Deep House / Micro House and Minimal Music, then by and by he developed his passion and love for Deep Techno, Ambient & IDM. With his friend Till Hennig he organized a few Techno event series in Augsburg at Ideal Club, the famous Schwarzes Schaf and City Club, where they invited numerous DJs and live acts from all around the globe.
In winter 2020 he joined our hard-working friends at Fur:ther Sessions, where his first solo EP will see the light in summer 2022.

In his vinyl only mixes he usually blends Ambient and Techno to introduce the listener to a world of morphic atmospheres and dynamic rhythms. This “Circulating Waves” edition is no exception: Turn up your speakers and roll through the last bits of a misty winter!
