For You (feat. Michael Hausted)

Wait For Me

Feel Your Love (VIP Mix)

My reworking of the set that I played at the ZNA Gathering on August 19, 2022, from 11 am to 130 pm. 

In the weeks and months leading up to event, I was ruminating over various tracks and ended up with about 8 hours in a shortlist for my 2.5 hour set (and I am never restricted to only the ones in the playlist but those are often the ones I feel more drawn to). As I worked on various flows in practice sessions, I was primarily aware of how I wanted to begin and end: starting with a blend of some excerpts from the three unreleased tracks that closed my 2019 Goa Guardians set (with the intention of making the intervening 3 years 'collapse'), paying homage to Olli with the first kicking track of my set and some others, and having Tiny Little Engines be the climax. 

Although I am generally as known for my access to unreleased music as I am for my meandering storylines, this set was a bit different. A lot of artists continually tell me that the released versions were chosen for a reason: because they are great; and while some unreleased edits are of course amazing, lack of availability is not the only reason to play a track. I am constantly amazed by the astounding music that we have in our genre and I wanted to craft an upbeat story for that middle-of-the-day time of my set, so it was this vibe and character that were primary in my selection ... so even if it might seem to some like something of a selection of popular classics with fewer gear changes than I often incorporate into my sets, it's still (in my opinion) 'all killer, no filler' in a sequence that tells a cohesive flow-filled story, and the crowd was certainly beyond enthusiastic in its response.

I've replaced only one of the unreleased tracks I played at the event with the issued version as I know the artists did not want the unissued mix published.

I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did playing it - it was an unforgettable experience with an incredibly enthusiastic and responsive forest dance floor!

Elles de Graaf - From Dark To Light 2.0 (Nu Spirit Rework)

This fully improvised storyline follows a lone psychonaut on a journey of personal discovery through music into the cosmos and alternate dimensions beyond, then whiplashing back to our Earthly firmament after realizations that astound the psyche and broaden the horizons of his unwitting mind.

It was an unexpected blessing to have been trusted with an extra hour for my Goa Guardians set, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share an unhindered journey through some of my favourite Tunes from the 90s and early 2000s, including some secret weapons.

I am keeping the tracklist unpublished to preserve the unreleased music for the dance floor experience. I hope you enjoy dancing along, and for some—reliving the wonderful experience we shared that night.

Thank you to Frederico & the whole ZNA Crew and Mark Ainley for their invitation and trust to share. I hope to be back again if the stars align. ❤️

Clone604 @ Goa Guardians — ZNA 2024

Audio Noir has had a strong and steady string of releases since his debut in 2013 on Bonzai Records. He has gone on to have releases on Bonzai Progressive, Green Martian, JOOF and Drizzly before the track “Piranha” landed into the Perfecto demos inbox.

The original is a dark, twisting progressive track, which has a strong old school element from the gated pads and memorizing bassline.

Philthy Chit (fast becoming the ‘go to’ guy for progressive sounds) is on hand to bring us his distinct blend of music with a strong remix that has seen early support from Above & Beyond (GT121) and Paul Oakenfold in his Full On Fluoro radio show.

This package continues the Black ethos perfectly!

EN:

Xavier L.-B. aka Contrapunctus is a progressive Psytrance producer and musician. A music lover from a very young age, he’s now a professional violist, playing in various groups and symphony orchestras as a classical performer, and is passionate about underground electronic music.
 
His first encounter with Psytrance, at Timeless Festival 2017, had an enormous impact on him. As a result, he decided to produce his own sound by taking classes with well-known Canadian producer Black Marvin. Contrapunctus’s music is captivating, infused with juxtaposed rhythms, evolving melodies, and soundscapes that evoke orchestral music. His musical universe combines novelty and tradition in an organic manner, all in a unique Psy/Prog style. In this regard, his artist name refers to a writing technique used by Johann Sebastian Bach in which multiple melodic lines are interwoven to form a harmonious combination.

In 2023, Contrapunctus joined the Quebec collective Abduction Tales, and released his first EP Creatio as well as his single Dignity on Adhara Records.
In 2024, he released Conscious EP on Divinity Records, Continuum on Diatonic Records and Monk Chant on Adhara Records as well. He also played his first official live set at Era Festival.

FR:

Xavier L.-B. alias Contrapunctus est un producteur de Psytrance progressive et un mélomane dans l’âme depuis l’enfance. Il gagne aujourd’hui sa vie comme altiste au sein de différents ensembles et orchestres symphoniques comme interprète classique et il se passionne pour la musique électronique underground. 

Sa première rencontre avec la Psytrance, au festival Timeless 2017, l’a profondément marqué. Il décide alors de produire sa propre sonorité en suivant des cours avec le producteur d’ici  bien connu Black Marvin. La musique de Contrapunctus est envoutante, infusée de rythmes juxtaposés, de mélodies évolutives et de paysages sonores pouvant évoquer des musiques orchestrales. Son univers musical combine nouveauté et tradition de façon organique, le tout dans un style Psy/Prog unique. Son nom d’artiste, en ce sens, fait référence à une technique d’écriture utilisée par Jean-Sébastien Bach qui consiste à entremêler plusieurs lignes mélodiques pour former un amalgame harmonieux.

En 2023, Contrapunctus rejoint le collectif québécois Abduction Tales et sort son premier EP Creatio, ainsi que le single  Dignity sous étiquette Adhara Records. 
En 2024, il sort son EP Conscious sous le "label" Divinity Records, Continuum sur Diatonic Records ainsi que Monk Chant sur Adhara Records. Il a également joué son premier "live set" officiel à Era Festival.
