have you ever get a candy from a stranger and the he kept giving you a candy better than a previous one? well I just did

To guide us through the next simulated experience; Passing Notes Radio boss and 1/2 of the great new label ‘Companion', Pjenné [Melbourne, AUS], shows us what a utopian existence can sound, feel and look like.

Follow on as she glides through the stratosphere, looking down on the lush greenery and crystal water that our earth effortlessly inhabits... occasionally looking up into the vast display of distant stars and planets, glittering across the stillness of outer space.

Pjenné beautifully illustrates the phenomenology of nature through tracks which touch on each element, whether that be the ethereality of air, the intricacy of water, the depth of earth, or just the pure warmth flowing through this immaculately thought-out audible narrative.

We couldn’t help but think this would be the perfect soundtrack for the day peace on earth is declared, where humanity sits back and appreciates a new world— where collectively, we love what grows, exists and dies.

This small blue dot is our home… our balanced oasis in the desert of space. Perhaps we need the ability to fly to see a different perspective - and we’re sure this will help.

Close your eyes and drift into your own self.

Enjoy, and thankyou Pjenné

Virtual Utopia 03: Pjenné

Sonic storytelling from Glasgow's ambient power duo Somewhere Press. The mix is, according to Caapi and Lizzie Urquhart, a musing on the Divine Feminine, which got me thinking about something James Hillman, archon of all things archetypal, said about the study of Beauty. Apparently (so says James) the ancient root of the word "Aesthetics" comes close to meaning "I breathe in" and the mixes, releases and vibe of Somewhere Press has certainly breathed something beautiful into Glasgow's musical landscape. We hope you enjoy this latest Forecast addition and urge you to keep an eye out for the upcoming "The Blue Hour" compilation coming out soon via Boomkat. We can assure you that you wont be disappointed.

The third offering in our mix series is a live recording of Priori and Cousin's dj set at Sustain Release 2024. Recorded on the last morning between 6am and 1pm on what was meant to be an ambient stage, it featured everything a 3 day festival closing set should. Eclectic picks, strange and emotional sounds, dubious transitions and a few feigned endings. Massive thanks to all the dancers, the Sustain staff (Aurora, Ash and everybody else who put their blood, sweat and tears into this), the music makers, the birds, the stars. 

Much love,

P & C

My sister asked me to send a playlist to listen to while in labour, which i thought was an exciting task. I’m not sure if it helped, but here is a collection of the songs i sent. It ended up being a pretty self-indulgent exercise, but the idea was that i thought these songs would be nice to hear when you get born, depending on your taste in music as a baby. 

Ideally enjoyed while being born, but suitable for other occasions. 

stars of the lid - the evil that never arrived
annie a - chaque plante, chaque personne
ishq - flowt
the necks - open (partial)
lawrence - dawn
hiroshi yoshimura - wet land
seltene erden - hoidas lake
ulla - hope sonata (partial)
bill evans - peace piece
john abercrombie - timeless
miles davis - in a silent way 
japanes synchro system - pure finger in deep river
satoshi and makoto - crepuscule leger
morgan fisher - meeting and merging 
lonnie liston smith - colors of the rainbow
lifted - mirror in my room 
sue raney - stardust
matthew hayes - fill the heart with hope
frank harris & maria marquez - tanada de ordeno 
electronic system - skylab

a mixtape suitable for some occasions

»All the hope, the inner struggle, the repose, the sorrow - all of it is contained in the capricious disposition of the sky. It speaks to us in abstract terms each of us decipher in a personal way. This last year, more than any other, has been one of longing for better times, of staring out of the window, finding solace in the slow movement of the clouds.

Apart from a sonic storyteller of extraordinary sensitivity, André Pahl is a usual visitor of the firmament. He took yet another stroll in the wild blue and now tells us all about it in a wide kaleidoscope of human emotions.
	
This mix is a compelling testimony of those states we share with the skies: the longing melancholy of a sunrise, the embracing warmth of the twilight, the peaceful serenity of the rain, the indecipherable gloom of the fog. Lay back, look up and dive in, but be aware: feelings may arise.«

For 2018’s next expedition, veteran cosmonaut Benedikt Frey takes control of space command after making 2017 one of his several galactic conquests, putting his proverbial black, red & yellow flag in a stunning vinyl release on Bahnsteig 23, an equally stunning album on ESP, a plethora of killer remixes and continuing his record label ‘Love Pain Sunshine & Rain’. Need we say more?

His broad electronic taste is vast, and his sound can be a drift across the universe, a jump to hyperspace, industrial binary clunking or an extraterrestrial attack on the senses. Todays sample is the latter. Packed with ample 303, nothing could be better suited to help you laugh in the face of ‘dry January’, show it the Vs and prime you for the weekend.

For ages nighttime was said to be the time of ghosts and spirits. Creatures of the night were believed to gain special powers between 
midnight and dawn. In latin this shrouded in mystery lapse of time was called "intempesta" - time without time. 
Detlef Weinrich, alias Toulouse Low Trax, too, seems to have lingered in the irrational universe of frozen continuity quite frequently within the 
last two years. Everyone who drifts to the sound of his first solo album "Mask Talk" will soon sense the musical intensity boding a different 
dancefloor. 
Cool, atmospheric new-wave-sharpness, and a cushioned beat rate between 107 and 116 bpm call out a mechanical functionality that 
doesn't bow to any contemporary doctrine. "Mask Talk": urban music, club album. Big city lights in Africa. Chilly neon-sounds made in 
Dusseldorf. 
As a member of Kreidler, Weinrich just recently participated in the trio's newly found cosmic vibes, as well as in their album "Mosaik 
2014". Now, with his solo project, he is demonstrating that a MPC and a small synthesizer-ensemble are enough to bring alive futuristic 
dance music in the here and now. 
Bedroom-recorded under tense creative circumstances, the ten tracks invoke, mostly instrumentally, an eerie atmosphere that would fit in 
perfectly with an early John Carpenter movie. The tracks' volume sounds as if a whole band had been at work in Weinrichs own four walls. 
With plenty delay on the bass figures, compact analogue effects, percussive dabs and a rough blend of layers, Weinrich has, without any 
digital support, created quivering drum machine music, whose dancability he was able to test regularly as a resident DJ and co-owner of 
the Dusseldof-based club/ bar "Salon Des Amateurs". His new tracks breathe the hypnotic power of his DJ sets, where he arranges 
diverse rhythms between krautrock, cosmic, electronic and acid. They also remind of analogue-electronical pioneers such as Cluster or 
Peter Baumann. Also 1980s avant-gardists Cabaret Voltaire or Zazou Bikaye have left their mark, without Toulouse Low Trax explicitely 
referring to them. 
All tracks are committed to experiment. They leave room for every sound without neglecting rhythmical clarity. A dark, urban solanum, full of 
reverb, whose melodies are never prankish, but whose minimal nonchalance is sure to help not only the dark creatures through the night. 
"Form is essence brought to the surface" Victor Hugo wrote 150 years ago. "Mask Talk" is reasserting this theory as a destillate of an 
operating procedure seeking to subvert ingrained listening habits and to resharpen the contours of the audible. Electronic music beyond 
any categorisation, whose sounds and rhythmics grow to an emotional atmosphere that far exceeds the immediately hearable.
