A melodic soundscape by Naroma & Ramona, aka naromaramona for The Naked Tea Party on 12.November,2022 in Berlin.

Mastered by Yoav Naveh

Enjoy!

Naroma & Ramona @ The Naked Tea Party

I started at midnight when doors just opened. I always find it nice to start a night with no one in the club and set the mood for the next hours. Grelle Forelle is a perfect club for those kinds of nights. Great sound system, great venue and great crowd. A club run by truly passionate people. Always love playing there and doing an open to close set is quite a journey with sometimes some unexpected twists and turns. You never really know what the next hour will be like, you kind of have an idea, but it changes according to moods and new ideas. This was a 6h journey and here is the first one. Hope you enjoy!

AMFM I 410 - Live @Grelle Forelle / Vienna, November 25th 2022 - Part 1/6

narfux [at] Beate Uwe [ LIVE-SPECIAL ]

Recording date: 6.11.22
Venue: Beate Uwe

https://soundcloud.com/narfux is joining our LIVE-SPECIAL series (https://soundcloud.com/afterhour-sounds/sets/live-special) straight from the fabolous berlin based club https://soundcloud.com/beateuwe. Enjoy the recording.

• What are your musical influences? What is your musical background?

I dont "come" from a musical background, in my child hood music wasn't a very present aspect in my life and now it is what I dedicate my moments to. Sound is what interests me, the daily life sound, the sounds that hold invitations to deepen your moments, the sounds that make my inner and outer world move with curiosity, sounds for the deep listener. 

Opening Traktor for the first time in 2019 when in hospital with help from a dear beloved, I was made aware on such a deep level the ability of healing which comes from outworldy expresion through sound. From that point on the rabbit hole of wonder continues.

 

• What makes good "afterhour"?

A good afterhour for me are the moments of deep surrender, filled with Gratitude for the present. Being surrounded by and experiencing it with loving beings in softness, cheekiness and love. Lets pour some tea and listen to some melting ambient together, or lay in the sun listening to the wind in the trees, lets laugh and celebrate eachother. 

 • Do you have any thoughts you would like to share about your set?

I had the impulse to play the same track at the start and at the end, to hold the journey with the message of Love. This for me, is what I wish to convey in all my musical journeys. 

 
• What was your experience of the set you recorded?

Beate Uwe is one of my beloved home bases, so playing here is always a heart expansion. Watching the bodies flowing and moving on all different levels was and is such a joy, I was in awe at the beauty of it all. It is such an honour to play for you and to share this experience together. The last track moment has imprinted on me, an invitation into stillness it was beautiful to witness the embraces of self and others.

Printworks London

Sadly my last ever gig in this fantastic venue in London as it most likely will close down for good in May 23. But what an intense 90 minutes it was. Charlotte de Witte invited me for her KNTXT Party and it was a total blast all around. What else can I say. Have a listen. In case you only hear the 60 min “Radio” Version, make sure you move over to my Mixcloud or Soundcloud account to hear the full 90 min. And if you wanna have the whole set without me talking, please consider to become a Mixcloud Select subscriber. Thank you!

A big change is coming. More next week, but I thought before all that happens I take you back in time. I have various boxes full of hard disks and I have been recording my sets since like more than 15 years really, so I have quite a collection. I randomly chose a box and within that box randomly chose a disk and found a set I played at the famous Florida 135 on March 1st 2014. So almost exactly 9 years ago. Here is the first hour of that set. I thought it might be nice for a change to check back what I did 9 years ago and you can judge if my skills and music selection has improved or.. well, the opposite … you tell me in the comments below ;) 
Hope you enjoy the ride back in time and I am looking forward to next week to reveal the new change that is coming. I do think you all will like that. I give a little hint, it has to do with my label… any ideas ? Write in the comments.. looking forward to read all those comments by the way.
Hope you enjoy, best, c

AMFM I 417 - Live @Florida 135 - Fraga / Spain, March 1st 2014

Back in one of my favourite clubs ever… Nordstern in Basel. For those who haven't been there, it is a boat and has the best layout a club can possibly have. Amazing sound system, huge dance floor, DJ booth on almost the same level at the end of the room, all black and amazing lights and visuals – a perfect place to get lost in the groove. This time I played an all night long set, started at 1 and ended at some point after 6. This week´s AMFM 418 is actually the 3rd hour of my set, next week´s show will contain the 4th and the week after you will be able to listen to the 5th and last. If you wanna hear the beginning, you need to check out my Mixcloud Select channel, it is all there.

Chris Liebing is synonymous with techno. His legacy is long assured, but his craft never stops evolving. Whether as label head, podcast curator, DJ or producer, he continues to challenge himself and his audience to explore new realms in the electronic world. And often ahead of the curve, too, from the early, hard-edged and loopy 90s sound which is back en vogue today, through his more stripped-back turn of the millennium minimalism and onto the cinematic atmospheres and broader alternative electronica of his latest albums on Mute. It's no stretch to say, then, that Chris Liebing's story is closely connected to the story of techno itself. 

Liebing is considered a global techno ambassador, but his ambitious album projects and direct club tracks excite and innovate as much as any new school star. A proudly forward-thinking attitude ensures that is the case as his DJ tools and studio setup constantly evolve. He continues to be an early adopter of emerging technology, too, just as he was with vinyl controllers, Traktor and when leading the way with full hybrid/live DJing. 

These days, Liebing incorporates an ever wider sphere of sound into his own work. After an eight-year break from full lengths, 2018's Burn Slow on Mute was a creative rebirth that received critical acclaim and confounded all expectations. It was a melancholic mediation on gothic moods, looming apocalyptic landscapes and optimistic broken-beat techno that drew from his childhood love of Depeche Mode, Gary Numan and the New Romantic movement. 

Remixes for Depeche Mode and Goldfrapp followed alongside a collaborative single with Charlotte De Witte, and 2021 brought a second album on Mute, Another Day. It found Liebing exploring all new ways of expressing both his euphoric and melodic side, all with high-grade technical skill and meticulous sonic craft with a range of collaborators from Miles Cooper Seaton to Polly Scattergood. This exceptional form continued into 2023 as he returned to the club with his Love Those Who Fight With Passion And Faith EP on CLR, a passionate and politically charged call to the dance floor that joined Liebing and Luke Slater’s remix of Depeche Mode’s iconic ‘Ghosts Again’ in the first half of the year. 

Born in Giessen and active ever since the 1990s, Liebing has always platformed the talent around him as much as himself: a long time before they were commonplace, he famously helmed his own CLR podcast. For many years, it was the scene's most influential series, with a who's who of international pioneers at the helm. After that came the equally important AM/FM radio show, but now following a hiatus, the CLR podcast is back and pushing a fresh techno agenda, as is his iconic label of the same name.

In its first chapter, CLR stood for Chris Liebing Records, then Create Learn Realize, and now Create Learn Repeat - a subtle evolution that is at the heart of everything Liebing does. The label will always be synonymous with exciting techno and is now back hosting parties and festival stages. 

Though his music is underpinned by pulsating menace and a stomping sense of drama, Liebing himself is friendly with a famous smile. It is the music that motivates him and the freedom that comes with increased experience. These days there are no limits, no expectations, but a continued love for the art and craft of techno that is taking him down all new creative pathways.
