This mix is an invitation to dance,
To take off your shoes,
Find an open space,
Find a nice little sound system, 
Find a friend, a family member, or maybe alone,
And dedicate 2 hours of life to the joys of dancing...

To come home to ones body, 
To stretch, massage and unfurl those parts
that may have not been moved for quite some time.

To playfully incorporate the elements. 
Wild, agile and without judgement.
To explore the space within and without.

To dance,
To celebrate,
To enjoy...

Life is beautiful after all!

Danse des Elements (Mix)

A norse gael blows, roots strong and deep, tall stands the oak tree, we sway until we sleep...

I began compiling music for this mix over 7 years ago. It started as a faint calling, to gather a mix of slow irish airy mysticism which had always haunted me. The more i listened, the more i realised i had only been scratching the surface. As the years went on it became a journey of rediscovery and a journey of coming home. Born and raised on the island of Ireland, I left eagerly when i was 21 never really feeling quite part of the culture growing up. Now some 15 years later i increasingly feel the urge to re-connect with this heritage i am so fortunate to have.
And upon travelling to Norway, i felt compelled to include music from the Nordic traditions also, feeling so at home in these lands and just as so with it's music. Thank you to all the wonderful musicians for keeping the fire burning. And thank you to these lands i love so well, harbours of hearts, eternal source of wonder... 

Home is in the mountains, our heart is by the sea,
and wherever those two shall meet, you will find us joyfully..

Peter Power - Home is in the Mountains (Mixtape)

Between the dawn of dusk,
Life wavers in the stillness,
Pristine presence, silent grace...

A cosy burrow at the core of our whole.

In the warm hum of home
Life is beautiful after all...

The Warm Hum Of Home (Solstice Mixtape)

As 2023 comes to a close it is time for another Cosmo-vision mixtape of beautiful music in new contexts. Old music, new music, electronic, acoustic, folk to dub: a patchwork of sound and a journey of melody, harmony and rhythm.

Chalk it up as another tough year with glimmers of hope if you keep your eyes on them.

2023 Mix (Cosmo-vision)

The end of 2024 draws to a close and I offer up the seventh version of my yearly mixtape.  It is a pleasure to do these mixes each year and I never really know where they will end up but centred around pieces of music that I picked up over the year, that caught my ear (tracklist below).

This time it leans towards a lot of my own edits made especially for the mix, a few yet-to-released remixes and beautiful music from all over the world. I think there is definitely a focus more on precious, moving music and less towards the dancefloor. Hard to explain why, I tend not to overthink these mixtapes. 

To give you a bit of a look behind the curtain I painstakingly craft each of these mixtapes using Ableton, treating it more like an extended production than just two tracks mixed together. I end up with a sprawling mix of tracks, acapellas, synths, samples and founds sounds. A kind of patchwork of sound. Though only 21 pieces of music this session somehow grew to 162 different racks, from cumbia rhythms to kicks to take a track into a new place.

San Pedro Bonfim - De Terciopelo Negro (El Búho Edit)
Gro - I urmoderns famn x Weeding Dub - Gypsy Dub (feat. Ras Divarius)

2024 Mix (Cosmo-vision)

Travelling Partners Vol II

Popcorn

13 years after their first release and irruption in the South American electronic scene, Barrio Lindo presents a new EP that is announced as the first chapter of a story that will continue.
After exploring a completely acoustic sound in their last release “Espuma de Mar” (2022), Barrio Lindo returns to renew their sound and propose a predominantly electronic journey, allied to the organic and psychedelic, in the personal moment of greatest fascination and curiosity for science and nature's mysteries.

ecdysis vol. I is a renewal in the sound of Barrio Lindo and a return to being inspired by the dancefloor. This EP has been produced between 2024-2025, time in which these songs have matured within the live sets he performed in the last year. 

Arpeggios, shifting bass lines, processed Andean strings and precise percussions are part of ecdysis' sonic palette, which finds inspiration in music from all over the world, from Caribbean sounds, through Arabic scales and Dabke sounds, to hip-hop beats.

This EP is in a way a painting of two geographically opposite latitudes that are part of Barrio Lindo in their daily life, tours and studies. The precise and sensitive poetry of Nicolás Dominguez Bedini from Turdera in the south of Buenos Aires, and the deep sweetness in the voice of Hou, singer from Miyazaki in the south of Japan; weave this infinite romance that Agustín Rivaldo has with his country of origin and with Japan, a country he visits frequently.
The extremes and everything in between are part of the Barrio Lindo universe in a constant change of skin.

It's with shimmering delight to ignite the Warm Hum record label
with this first little ripple; 'Allez'

An impulse for peace, urging divine mercy.
Calling on the regenerative power of the elements to
work their healing alchemy.

Allez Hallelujah Eleison

Entra el Fuego
Entra el Agua

Essentia #2: Matanza

Dear Fusioners, friends and family, here is the set that I played at the beautiful opening day of Salon de Baile, at Fusion Festival 2018. It was so mesmerizing and a pleasure for me to be surrounded by musicians that I am fan of, dear friends and a lot of lovely people. 
It includes a lot of upcoming music, some of wich will be released soon, and some other that I produced right before leaving Buenos Aires, only weeks before, so it was very special for me to try some tracks that night. I hope you enjoy.

Barda @ Fusion Festival 2018 - Salon De Baile

London-based Chilean DJ and producer DJ Raff crafts lysergic, low-slung dance music, lacing together samples from across the Afro-Latin diaspora into a heady mix of percussive patterns and hypnotic melodies. With support from Gilles Peterson and Tom Ravenscroft among others, DJ Raff has established himself as one of the most prolific producers on the scene. He describes himself as a relator - or sonic storyteller - speaking in a “musical language” of kaleidoscopic rhythms and atmospheric instrumental moods that draw on myriad influences from the Andean regions of Chile, Peru, Bolivia and beyond.
