Set the Mood with Maō-no!

For Set the Mood 32, the decks are in the capable hands of Maō-no, the mastermind behind Vinylismo and a resident at AMW.FM. This edition of Set the Mood marks a milestone as the very first vinyl-exclusive set in the series, a detail that adds an extra layer of excitement to the occasion. With its slower transitions and an emphasis on embracing the full body of each track, this mix perfectly captures what an opening set should be.

For Maō-no, a perfect opening set is about creating the right atmosphere. It starts with deep, sci-fi-inspired intros built on strong basslines, slowly unfolding into a dynamic blend of high and low tones. The transitions are purposefully slow, creating a smooth and steady build that pulls the audience into a rich, layered sound. This thoughtful approach sets the perfect tone for the night, drawing listeners into a unique musical journey.

Maō-no (also known as Pablo) is a DJ known for his ability to mix vinyl and digital music into a cohesive story. As the founder of Vinylismo and a key resident at AMW.FM, he brings a unique perspective to his craft. His sets feature carefully chosen tracks, with each vinyl selected to deepen the experience and bring the audience into the heart of the club atmosphere. Combining skill with an adventurous style, Maō-no’s performances leave a lasting impression on every dancefloor he plays.

REFRACTION Podcast Series #14 - Kooscha b2b Thomas Carmody [Vinyl Mix]

#13

Artist: Quadrant Soundscape [Dub Explorations]

For the 13th episode of the Frontier we have decided to step up and present our own interpretation of what the series is. The Frontier is a series that means a lot to us, it's something that we have talked about wanting to do for a long time and have been very careful in how we want to curate it. From the music, to the artwork, and to the artists we've invited on, every decision has been carefully thought about. 

So with that being said we are proud to present our own mix, coming in at just over 2 hours. We feel this is a good representation of our sound and how we like to develop and build things up over the course of a few hours. 

As with all our Frontier mixes we have not included the tracklist. Feel free to comment below and we will let you know what is being played.  

We hope you enjoy.

Set the Mood with Diepzeebeest!

I am truly excited to have Diepzeebeest involved in this series. From the moment I first heard their sound, I was immediately captivated. Their latest release on Float is a perfect example of why they deserve this spot and why I believe everyone should hear their music.

Diepzeebeest loves to explore their inner experience, diving deep into uncomfortable feelings and capturing them in their productions. This process is often subconscious, unfolding while they record sounds from their hardware and software instruments. Turning these recordings into tracks then becomes more of a curation, where meaning is consciously discovered. When approaching the recording for Oefenmeesters Set The Mood, they envisioned it as an introduction to the introspective and driving techno they gravitate toward. The set hints at the depths to come while remaining inviting enough for listeners to ease in. As a final track, they chose a slight outlier—a last moment to surface and breathe before the next set takes the audience even deeper, eyes closed, letting go.

Diepzeebeest (they/them) is a producer and live artist from Rotterdam, exploring the depths of hypnotic techno with releases on Float, Immaterial Archives, and Dynamic Reflection, among others.

Diepzeebeest - Set the Mood 043 (Oefenmeesters)

The Mercurian Crater Festival rarely opens its doors. While primarily designed for wholesale traders from across the galaxies, guests from all walks of life are welcome to join the experience. Installations, auctions, food courts, and an endless array of goods for every taste make this event a spectacle of creativity. One pavilion, in particular, is drawing a growing crowd. And for good reason — this is the place to let loose. The immersive sound is intoxicatingly good, thanks to a true master in the lineup.

Somewhere in the crowd, a high-ranking official from an Aerospace Corporation flashes by, a local dealer darts past, and a scholar observes the scene alongside a talking cat. In this eclectic mix, the right connections often form in the most unexpected ways — even rival factions sometimes find common ground. Despite its scale, the festival has never received official status, a testament to its rather… unconventional organizers, who prefer to stay out of the spotlight. But then again, no one really needs an announcement to know what goes on under the banner of such a grand event. Welcome to the chaos!

Richie Hawtin - Boiler Room - Paris, 03.05.2025

The podcast returns with another chapter for the summer season. For this occasion we have the talented producer and dj Clarence Rise from Epinal, France with a well compiled story to keep us company for the road trips, forest walks and nature hikes to come. 

"In this mix, I wanted to explore the movement of bodies and landscapes alike — a dance unfolding between earth and sea, from dusk to dawn. Deep rhythms guide us through shifting textures, where shadow and light trade places. Let yourself drift into a sonic tide that pulses with both stillness and motion."
