MIX SERIES 003 MARA ZULI

For our 30th instalment we have a very special submission via Milano. 

Balleremo & Cura Festival resident, Ortensio brings us an extended mix testing the limits of 'dance music' - a beautifully introspective blend of slow jams, percussive textures, moments of serenity contrasted with moments of total chaos and more dub infused and bass heavy sounds.

Super beautiful, thank you Ortensio <3

For this mix I wanted to try and build a blend some of the outcome of my researches towards the different shades and forms of danceable music I personally enjoy the most, possibly limiting as much as possible the usage of music conceived and created specifically for the contemporary dance floors and sound systems, and trying to dig deeper into different dimensions of regular and non-regular rhythms, music jams and head-moving sonic creations from all over the world, mostly focusing on the mediterranean macro area and more.

My past, when I was living in Berlin and DJing more regularly in clubs, has helped me shape my technical skills. Milano instead has helped me breaking my limits, getting out of my comfort zone and destroying a lot of the patterns that, as a DJ and Music Maker, were locking me down in a box. There’s a lot of oxygen, curiosity and creativity nowadays in my everyday life.

𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 / 𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐛 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨?
Definitely one of the kinetic events. I prefer small DIY events over infamous and hyper-celebrated social gatherings. The only thing I care the most about lately is the sound system.

𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Can’t avoid trying to bring some attention to our beloved creature, @balleremo-04-14. Also, there’s a few, but definitely @ormeye and DNN’s LOBO, Dubwise, Buka and Evolvere are some of my favorites. But I’m sure I’m forgetting some.

𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐉 / 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐮𝐩?
Definitely @st-ill, @piezopz, @notmass / @cipppo, @biasedraw and @ernestobellicini.

There’s too many. But my most recent was at my place, with some of my most loved friends during an endless after party.

𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧?
The city where I live, Milano, for the vibe. And lately, our event “Balleremo”. There’s other cities I love way more tho for the sound systems.

𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐱?
There’s really too many. I can mention some of the artists tho: Mala, @keinobjekt, @djrum.

For U-R-S, sound is not merely an expression of what has already been mastered or performed. Instead, it’s a living archive, a musical encyclopedia in constant evolution. Much like a library of unread books, her studio is filled with instruments, recordings, and fragments of compositions that might never be fully realized but are essential in her potential. These sounds are not just records of past achievements but seeds for future experiments—a reservoir of possibilities waiting to be explored.
Every note played, every texture created, adds to a vast network of interconnected ideas. On U-R-S approach, the incomplete sketches, dissonant layers, and raw recordings are not failures or incomplete works; they are tools, ideas in waiting, elements of a larger and ongoing process. In this way, her mixes are not a finished product but an evolving workshop—a space where sound is continuously transformed, recontextualized, and enriched.
Artefact : 
Just as Umberto Eco’s library is a repository of future projects, U-R-S’s archive of sound is not a reflection of what has been definitively achieved but a workshop brimming with future explorations. Her music, like Eco’s library, embodies the ever-unfolding pursuit of knowledge, creativity, and discovery.
