Soul LieD - Twilight Head (Original Mix)

Hey everyone, here is my recording of my set at NYX Festival 2022.
I had so much fun playing this one, starting with a bit more of a progressive style and ending up with 145 BPM Psytrance.
Thank you to everyone who danced to my set, and thank you to everyone who has supported me along my journey so far.
Please share the love if you enjoy this set, and I will see you on a dancefloor soon!

A very experimental, one-off release that doesn’t quite fit into any genre. There are influences from Industrial, Hip-Hop, and IDM, but the result doesn’t quite fit into any of them.
These four tracks were made around 10 years ago, at a time when I was still exploring music production but already realizing it wasn’t for me. I never really considered myself a producer, and after this I stopped making music altogether. Still, there’s something about these strange tunes, I think it's the 'no rules' and 'in-between-genres' energy that I like and that made me want to share them now. Maybe someone out there will connect with them in their own way.

Unordinary States

Crooks is a conduit for immersive auditory journeys rooted in collaboration and respect for Indigenous culture. A portal - bridging ceremony and rave; earth and aether - That is both primal and futuristic. Each set creates a space where movement and spiritual connection converge.   

It is not about fusion but symbiosis - a mutual thriving. At its core, it is a reminder - That music, like the land, flourishes when all voices are heard and when we learn to move together in respect, rhythm and harmony. 

This project was born in the meeting of sky and earth. When a blue heron from a faraway land glided down to rest upon country, the ancient spirit of the land rose to greet it. One brought the long journey, the other carried the memory of endless time. Together, they listened — to sky, to soil, to silence — until a rhythm emerged that belongs to both and neither.
