2023 - What are you listening to?

The mix represents a variety of italian cosmic classics with nower days slow tempo electronic bangers and shows the origin of my passion for electronic music. It covers 70s and 80s electronic music e.g. from Logic System, Peru or Koto often played by the italian DJ grand masters like Danielle Baldelli mixed with sounds mainly from the DEEWEE sphere. The tracks are full of synthy sounds and clashes on slow tempo around 100bpm. Starting with an incredible track from Bolis Pupul - Moon Theme, catching up exactly the vibe of those days. Enjoy the Ride.

Starting with a deep dive alongside whales who will sing for you, you’ll find yourself getting an instruction on how to become a more passionate lover shortly after. If you hear voices - pay attention. They might have something interesting to tell. If you don’t - just nod your head. Keeping it in the 80s and 90s I decided to mix some of my favorite hip hop, dub, downtempo and synth-pop records in this contribution. Enjoy!

With this Mix I’m showing you a glimpse of my musical preferences. Together we’re embarking on an adventure, where the melodies and rhythms transport you to my cherished moments that evoke a range of emotions. Each song carries personal memories and some more or less have a special place in my heart.

Tenisa - What are you listening to?

Enjoy a ride through my carefully selected compilation of magical tracks, most of them reminding me of my personal trip through Japan and Vietnam. Drawing inspiration from mainly (not only) Asian-infused contemporary ambient music, downtempo beats, some faster break beats, and even some old japanese pop songs, this mix reflects a lot of emotional influences I went through in the past years. The opening track, Bells of Ukyo, shall transport you to a kind of meditative, mystical and more introvert state of mind, setting up the right mood to enjoy a transformative inner trip. Who knows what else awaits you during the next hour? For me, this is also a new approach of mixing. Bringing up a mixture of different genres to create a somewhat cinematic atmosphere was really special and a lot of fun. Finally being able to share a glimpse of some eastern-influenced tracks I gathered over the past years brings a big smile to my face - maybe also to you.

Déjà-Duc - What are you listening to?

What I’ve always been listening to: I come from Rock music. Psychedelic, Indie, Postrock - anything a little trippy really. It always had to be tripped out for me. When I start closing my eyes to the music, that’s when it’s really touching me. There is so much good stuff out there and I often get excited thinking about all the songs I still have to discover, how many beautiful soul-touching tracks will be written by someone who is now a kid sitting in their bedroom dreaming about making their own music someday - it’s the most magical thing we have and it touches me deeply. I have always collected music. Before the algorithms were tailored „to our needs“, we would end up in hour-long YouTube loopholes and find the weirdest shit. We all remember our teenage years and most of us agree - they were a bit shit. But the music, it made everything so much more bearable. In this mix, I have included some of the tracks I would dream to as a kid, but also newer music I dug out that totally matches that sound. Because good music will never die, people will never stop making it. We now have endless possibilities to discover it, so you have to really listen and look out for it, but it’s there and it’s fresh. Put in the effort, let the past inspire you and make something out of the present <3 

P.S. That little frog gliding through space was shot by me in 2010 when I was in my indie teen SLR camera prime - I hope you float around like her listening to this :)

I took the opportunity to mix the more tranquil tracks of my selection. I like tracks that sweep you away with spherical melodies while bass and broken rhythms keep you grounded. My tendency to epic mood changes is showing up here.

Predawn Records  - What are you listening to?

The beginning of my musical journey was an attempt to find direction, even in the process of growing up and to sort emotions. The opportunity to empower oneself, to break free, or to lose oneself is still the aim of my music consumption today. I believe that this is something deeply normal (?) However, my favourite kind of music is embracing, preferably with orchestral elements, which I would describe with a certain grandeur. That means, while listening, the attempt is made to detach oneself from all the adversities and lows of life - to look at oneself and the chaos of life from a distance.

Lennox Love - What are you listening to?

This mix is an amalgam of tracks that we both enjoy listening to alongside club music. It includes music that we resonate with again and again anew and one that inspires us. Some of the tracks are part of our all-time favourites, which have been accompanying us for a long time and still keep coming around. But also you can hear tracks that we've just discovered but equally resonate with us.
There were many tracks that we would have liked to include. The decision as to which tracks ultimately found their way into the mix was purely a gut decision this time, based on a feeling of "what is getting us through the winter". For us, a mix that warms from the inside, so to speak. We hope it'll do the same with you.
