Just a small excerpt of the approach:
The thematic leitmotif was to be the element "water", which was conceptually divided into the workingThe concept was divided into the thematic areas of "SENSE and Silence", "Infinity" and the mighty "Power of Water".For all created or composed parts, I attached great importance to my own sound development (e.g. through my own recordings mainly of water sounds, key - pitches - tone lengths - frequencies - LFO rates - resonance - attack - decay - filter settings), which were worked out with a great deal of commitment, partly discarded or changed again.and were partly discarded or reconstructed. The pieces reflect the claim of a "breathing, surreal minimalism". In some cases, different versions were created from one piece, with the final decision being made in favour of the thematically "most appropriate piece". Theapproach and realisation corresponds to a single theme, namely climate change in relation to the theme of water, and aims to represent thethe problem as well as to give hope. I chose the titles in connection with the respective musical topic by researchingvia scientific journals, Wikipedia as well as the Logia source QCover and videos:The rather surreal water album cover was made in late summer 2021 at a fountain in Cologne, with my camera Canon EOS M50 with the Canon Zoom55-250mm. I filmed the videos in slow motion in the dark with ice and water in a glass. The light source was a torch and a candle.candle and filmed with the Canon macro 28mm. I set great store by "surreality" in order to allow openness during the viewing and to pick up the mood of the music pieces. the mood of the music. The photos and videos were all kept in black and white and post-processed to better represent the surrealism.to be able to present the surrealism better.

Artist: Pedro Capelossi [Refraction Rec / Seven Villas / OHM Series]

For our 9th mix of The Frontier series we welcome Brazilian born, Barcelona based, Refraction Records commander in chief - Pedro Capelossi.

Over the last decade Pedro has forged a distinctive sound which focuses on inventive use of atmosphere and rhythm, drawing the lines between global dance cultures without adhering to any fixed formula.  

Pedro is best known for his releases on Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas label. This distinctive label is one which cant be tied down to one particular sound, but tends to float between all things Dub House / Dub Techno / Deep House.

  In 2023 he founded his own musical imprint REFRACTION RECORDS, representing some of the world’s most avant-garde visual artists, designers and musicians. Blurring the boundaries between house, techno and its closely related derivatives.

  For this Frontier mix Pedro has presented a beautifully compiled selection with his signature sound, deep, dubby, atmospheric and emotive throughout. It features a lot of music from Refraction records, with a lot of unreleased forthcoming music. Its a joy to listen to and one we'll be going back to again and again.

Alejandro Romero dived into electronic music at the age of fourteen. He enjoyed listening to a wide spectrum of styles within the genre. His passion for mysterious and deep records increased with the years, going from the common to the most unusual kind of beats. His first attempt to expose his productions was under his own name and he kindly received feedback and likes from labels like Futurepast, Honne Music, Todd Nerdy, WhatNowBecomes and a few more from around the globe. After this success he decided to pursue a career in the Latin American scene with a new moniker called 'Amalgama'. This moniker had the intention to release non-binary music in which he pulled out records on labels like Halcxn, Cavilar, Organic Records, Ruem Trax, Impresión and his own label Overlap Records. The project highlight is a four track vinyl release in the Berlin based label 'System Error'. At the same time Alejandro had the necessity to explore downtempo and ambient realms. He discovered a whole new scene thanks to the attention of webzines like Delayed and Inverted Audio who premiered tracks from his past releases. With this support he launched 'Ópalo', an alias created to expose his taste for experimental downtempo and idm music. His first release under this moniker was an seven track album called 'La Edad Invisible' which was released in Caracteres, a sub label of Overlap Records created for ambient and electronica.

Alejandro future projects include an alias called Quantum, a moniker that compiles his past works that where not considered by records labels. He discovered this music was unique and special. Part of the project is to expose his taste for abstract art made by him with oil on paper. In the present he's still curating the boutique label Overlap Records and his sub label Caracteres.

Today we are happy to share with you Bas Dobbelaer’s interpretation of Far Blue. The Amsterdam based DJ and producer is known for his distinct style, floating between energies with odd signatures and atmospheric sounds. 

With Echoes, Bas Dobbelaer takes you on an introspective journey where shifting rhythms and immersive atmospheres intertwine, creating a very deep contribution to the series.

“With this mix I tried to find the deeper layer of certain tracks and not limit myself too much with different tempo’s ranges. If it fits the vibe and helping the flow, it’s probably the right spot.

Creating a mix is an interesting creative outlet to discovering new possibilities and refining the art of setting the tone. Balancing on that thin line with endless opportunities, reflects the perfect capture of the feeling and learnings of today.”

DJ Set Live @ Dommune Tokio Japan

*"Con un profundo agradecimiento a mis colegas por su magnífica música para mis 777years:
Aleksi Perälä, Aner, Alva Noto, Claudio PRC, Donato Dozzy, Matteo Cortese, Perc&Fractal, Rrose, Ryuichi Sakamoto, SARS & AR, SØS Gunver Ryberg ,The Lotus Eaters". 

777 years o 16 min o la iteratividad hipnótica de olvidar el tiempo.
Cambios lentamente desplegados, capitulados, sin grandes rupturas. Cinética que no sintéticamente, la pieza “777años” de Cio D’Or se mueve de manera (in)consciente hacia la producción de un nuevo tiempo. Un tiempo intemporal, elástico, ucrónico que elude gramáticas musicales, inmiscuyéndose en las fronteras del techno, el ambient o el dub para escuchar su propia escucha.

Cio D’Or

Cio D’Or (Cio Dorbandt) es una figura clave del techno alemán. Nacida en Hannover, pasó parte
de su juventud en el Berlín de los 80s formándose y trabajando como bailarina. Residente en el club Ultraschall de Munich desde 2001, adquirió reconocimiento internacional a finales de los 2000s desde las cabinas del Berghain, el Tresor, o el ://about blank​.
Con años de experiencia como dj, el trabajo de estudio llegó un poco más tarde, aunque su sonido se ha convertido en ineludible para tratar de hilvanar la fragmentaria genealogía del minimal y deep techno, junto con artistas más habituales como Mike Parker o Donato Dozzy, con quienes colabora asiduamente. Ha publicado álbumes y EPs para sellos como Prologue, Telrae, Hypnus, Time to Express o el madrileño Semantica, con el que acaba de lanzar su último álbum, Fluidum III (Semantica 120).

YOU GOT TO GET IN TO GET OUT. El continuo sonoro que nunca se acaba #3 con CIO D'OR

Cio D´Or © (Sound-Musiccreateur-Composer-DJ)

Cio D´Or moves 
Her music arise from an idea, which she develops and threads through her own sounds:
Emotional, extravagant, charismatic, cinematic, sometimes poetic.
Her music strives towards “infinity” between origin and development. Here, timeless possibilities sounding out from the zeitgeist.
Her dj set´s and mixe´s filtering to track down deep and authentic musical developments amongst the mass of music and records without forgetting the gems of the past.
