A mix of edited Son Of Chi tracks and new works in progress, including upcoming collabs with Kain The Poet, Jim Tetlow, Radboud Mens, Daniel Danieli, Clara Brea & Menhir, Omar Ka, Kaiyumi and more.

Son Of Chi: I always make live sketches. This time for my performance in Athens (scroll down for more info). Not sure if I will stick to them, but they give the right impression of the atmosphere i would like to create. The opening words by Kain The Poet reflect the times we live in and the challenges we are facing. I will end with a piece from “The Fifth World Recordings”.  

According to the Hopi prophecies we are now living in the transition years, moving from the fourth world into the fifth world. As they say: “times of earthquakes, floodings, fires, pandemics and wars”. The Hopi believe that in this period you need to be careful where you stay, who you stay with and what you do. Keep practising the holy rituals. Respect nature, the earth, the universe and be good to your fellowmen and all living creatures.

As the Hopi say the fifth world  “represents a spiritual awakening, an evolution in understanding the interconnectedness of all beings and the universe”. We are in the middle of this transition. All we can do is stick to our rituals.

Or as Hazrat Inayat Khan says: “The further we advance, the more difficult and the more important becomes our part in the symphony of life. The more conscious we are of this responsibility, the more efficient we become in accomplishing our task”.

Deep Breakfast 290 ~ Joachim Spieth

~ Deep Breakfast 293 by https://soundcloud.com/nightseaproject ~

"We’re excited to present to the Deep Breakfast community a live hybrid set performed in our Northern California studio in December 2024. Starting from a setlist of beloved ambient works, we improvised on our modular synthesizers to create extended transitions between tracks. While a track played, we’d sample it to create loops and textures, slowly building new compositions with these layers and other synthesized elements. We look forward to continuing the investigation of this hybrid style, exploring the spectrum between production, DJing, and improvisation."

Embodiment 068 - Synthbiont & Anassimandrus

"The site remains open. A heavy warmth hangs in the air, humming faintly through the layers. Beneath the familiar grain of stratum TD-6, something shifts - subtle, almost liquid. A trace of heat runs across the timeline, unsettling its order. The sediment stirs; a soft crimson flicker rises, then fades. Perhaps Triana, or something far more ancient. The "Estrato Aurora" evolves, unbroken. The rhythm deepens, folding in on itself. The digger no longer seeks - he listens."

Jaime Romero aka Estrato Aurora (@lovebas) is also the half of Pajaro Dune project (with David Ortolá). He has been an integral part of Valencia's underground music scene. Jaime as a Dj and producer has more than 2 decades in the studio working with analogic machines and a whole kind of stuff. He defines himself as an Atmospheric music worker. His line on the last years has leaded to publish on known labels such as: Alpenglühen, Bliq Rec, Appian Sounds, On Board, Dial Rec. Discos Pandémicos, HC Records or Danza Nativa.

This set was recorded during Pepa's birthday! We’re taking the opportunity here at HOC Radio to wish her a happy birthday. From here, these airs that appear throughout the set, Sevillian and Flamenco, also as a dedication to the entire region.

오랫만에 돌아온 꿈 팟캐스트의 55번째 에피소드는 조지아 티빌리시를 중심으로 활동하고 있는 HVL의 57분 앰비언트 디제이 세트와 함께 합니다.

HVL (Bassiani / Tbilisi)
테크노의 성지로 불리는 저명한 클럽 Bassiani의 레지던트 아티스트 HVL은 2009년 데뷔한 이래 트빌리시 클럽 씬을 중심으로 급격하게 번성하고 있는 테크노 무브먼트의 선두에 서 있다. HVL은 오랜 시간동안 다양한 장르와 스타일을 탐구해왔고, 라이브 공연과 DJ 세트를 통해 만들어진 그의 독보적인 사운드는 그동안 Bassiani Records, Rough House Rosie, Tabernacle Records, Organic Analogue와 같은 언더그라운드 전초기지에서 발매된 솔로 앨범들을 통해 잘 드러나고 있다.⠀
Organic Analogue Records에서 발매된 HVL의 풀-랭스 데뷔작이자 트빌리시 사운드를 정의하는 수작- ‘Ostati LP(2018)’는 매우 절제된 분위기의 아웃보드 하우스와 테크노를 중심으로 기존 HVL의 역동성을 매혹적으로 발전시킨 작품으로 높이 평가받고 있다. HVL은 홈 그라운드인 트빌리시를 넘어서 Berghain, Hï Ibiza, 그리고 Berlin Atonal까지 세계 최고의 댄스 플로어에서 높은 수준의 라이브 쇼와 DJ 세트를 선보이고 있다.

The long-awaited 55th episode of the kkum Podcast returns with a 57-minute ambient DJ set from HVL, based in Tbilisi, Georgia.

HVL (Bassiani / Tbilisi)
First coming to attention as a member of Okinawa Lifestyle duo in 2009, Bassiani/Horoom resident Gigi Jikia a.k.a HVL has become a leading voice of thriving techno movement centered around Tbilisi club scene. Since starting solo career in 2013, HVL was busy exploring more diverse range of genres and styles. His solo releases which have appeared on underground outposts like Bassiani Records, Rough House Rosie, Tabernacle Records and Organic Analogue, have testified to taste that’s also reflected in his Live performances and DJ sets.
The outstanding debut Ostati LP on Organic Analogue Records (2018), intended as a manuscript of the sound of Tbilisi, is a seductive update on the established HVL’s dynamics, centered on outboard house and techno with a noticeably understated mood.
As HVL’s reputation as a solo artist grows, so does his status as a selector and DJ. Jikia has taken his skillfully crafted Live shows and DJ sets to new heights in 2018, hitting up some of the best dancefloors in the world from Berghain and Hï Ibiza to infamous Berlin Atonal.

This was the audio used for my final MA project, as it was given as a live performance. I am planning to rework some of these tracks to work better as an album listen.
