Second to lead a simulated experience for the Virtual Utopia series is Faery [BRISTOL, UK]. During this 83-minute program, you will be guided through a mystic’s interpretation of our universe. Modern physics suggests existence is a 'neural network' of interconnected, vibrating particles (Quantum Entanglement) where everything exists in relation to everything else. Alternatively, in eastern philosophy; the organic world resonates on a certain frequency, a mutual hum, illustrated as the 'Dance of Shiva'. Could this cosmic dance be the same phenomena they are analysing in atomic physics? 

Plug in and find out.

Enjoy your time with us at Dream Software.

"For a parallel to the lesson of atomic theory... [we must turn] to those kinds of of epistemological problems with which already thinkers like the Buddha and Lao Tzu have been confronted, when trying to harmonise our position as spectators in the great drama of existence." -- Niels Bohr 

"The great scientific contribution in theoretical physics that has come from Japan since the last war may be an indication of a certain relationship between philosophical ideas in the tradition of the Far East and the philosophical substance of quantum theory." - Werner Heisenberg

For the 95th entry in the Honcho Podcast Series, we welcome @livwutang! Denver-raised, Seattle-honed, DJ livwutang stews together atmospheric soundscapes and bubbly instrumentation that could soundtrack a smoke-filled lounge, or a walk home under the cover of night.

If there is a current defined as the underground's underground, this is where Maruntelu's track selection should be placed. Dark & raw, energic & contemplative, this 1 hour mix has it all. No wonder that some of Maruntelu's production efforts can be found exclusively on Rhadoo's music bag.

Enjoy this mix, one of his few ever recorded

Slow Waves is a collection of multi-layered memories, stacked like grainy polaroids in an old box in the closet or under the bed while the colours fade. A young Rob at the beach or on his first day of grammar school. Images of travels across Europe and Japan, moments slipping in trains or planes while landscapes pass by. Memories so unique to his life, yet so similar to the fading memories of youth and adolescence we all have...

After a series of well acclaimed EP’s, each of them created at very specific moments in the artists life, @submerse took the time and sat down to reflect and convert all these memories into his first full length album on Project: Mooncircle.

'Slow Waves' comes out worldwide on limited double vinyl, limited handmade and handpainted cassette edition (both including download code) as well as a limited edition CD including a bonus track via @flaurecords in Japan.

An in-house ep to put the Neurocrank label in motion, courtesy of Harrison Sewards, al dente (@al-den-te). 

Signature drones and haunting vocals meet playful melodies in a more slinked out, but recognisably Harrison style of house. Adorned with characteristically unpredictable yet precise percussion, the ep finds its way into a space as ominous as it is infectious. 

To top it off is a remix from the one and only Ulo S (@reptant_the_lizard), marking the first release under the more tech-house leaning Reptant alias. This deep dub of Hey Crontis brings a euphoric end to the ep, hands up, shoulders still bopping to a bassline undeniably done by the lizard.

al dente - Dome Of The Robot (NCRANK01)

Plunge into unexplored sonics with Paris-based Australian artist al dente as he unveils his debut EP on Pure Space titled ‘multiform’.

Across the release al dente assembles a hypnotic merger of eerie atmospheres and playful rhythms, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in a world that is both deeply mysterious and unexpectedly fun.

Kicking off the EP is "the temptation," a subtly bass fueled cut that casts murky textures across mesmitic delayed melodies with a pitched vocal sample holding the journey steady. It's instantly captivating and sets the tone of the release for a journey into deeply satisfying electronix.

Transitioning seamlessly into "multiform," al dente unleashes a torrent of slippery beats and twisted synths. Playful in spirit, the track balances its propelling bassline with a crispy four to the floor beat - perfect for warming the floor or a freaky late night adventure.

Flipping the switch, al dente ups the pace on “overnight”. With sharp, skippy rhythms and glitchy nuances the track melts together proto-electro with a modern production sheen. The vocal samples a Croatian soccer commentator, a nod to his family's Croatian heritage and continuation of the playful nrg throughout the EP.

Completing the release comes Melbourne-based producer White Fluff’s remix of “overnight”. Injecting the track with his signature blend of psychedelic sound, the remix feels stripped back yet purposeful, adding a new sonic pallet to the release. It's a reimagining that ensures that the EP leaves a lasting impression long after the final beat fades away.

Techy interludes, squelchy bounce and breaky surprises all define @al-den-te's unique signature sound. Aussie born, France based, al dente has been making a name for himself through carefully curated releases on @neurocrankk, @thespacebetweenus and of most recent @purespacefm.
 
“I’m always listening to lots of different types of mixes and productions, especially from the 2000-2010 period, which definitely inspire my own mixes and productions a lot. There seems to always be a specific sound or moment in an old mix or track I find, which then inspires me to produce or dig for that vibe.”
 
“I have a few gigs and releases planned over the next few months, which I’m so so excited for! It definitely feels surreal to be playing outside of Australia for the first time. I have also been feeling very inspired production wise, making as much music as possible, including some new tracks which are in this mix :) ”

Thank you Harrison!

With the perfect fusion of Animalia’s wide realm of styles and foundations, comes up & coming Australian producer al dente, with a  minimal, modern take on peak-time bangers. Clean cut and futuristic, with a hint of early 2000’s minimal influence,  the al dente sound represents a fresh new wave of club-rollers whilst encompassing Animalia’s signature deep sound. 

Animalia would like to acknowledge that all tracks were produced on the traditional land of the Wurundjeri peoples, and pay respect to their elders past, and present. Sovereignty was never ceded.

For DSS 107, we welcome Naarm/Melbourne based Harrison Sewards. under the moniker al dente, he delivered intriguing productions on Pure Space, Animalia, BEAM, The Space Between Us, DMO & Neurocrank, a label & collective which he co-runs.
For his contribution to our series he explored the deeper side of his collection, these sounds reflect what has really been inspiring him to produce recently.

DSS 107 | al dente

for this week’s 909 podcast we welcome naarm/melbourne based dj & producer, al dente who serves up a delicious mix curated for home listening sessions. showcasing a slower, softer side to his collection, al dente was inspired to curate this mix by the setting that he enjoys listening to them the most in - cooking. still nodding to his signature spacey, chuggy and bubbly soundscapes, the mix comes with a minimal, techy edge. 

the 2024 release of al dente’s ‘the second cousin’ on animalia has become a firm favourite of mine - at least one track from the ep is always playlisted for sets. it’s a shining explain of what has drawn me to al dente’s sound over the past year, a contemporary take on a club-roller that’s super deep and futuristic whilst drawing from influences of early 2000s minimal. a dreamy combo! alongside that animalia release, al dente has released on the likes of pure space, beam, dmo, the space between us, and neurocrank - the latter being a platform & collective that al dente is a part of.
