Godamn, 5 years later Kilchurn Sessions are back 🤤

Delightful! Masterchef Todos  serves a solid tapestry once again

Like re- discovering a lost love, out of our lives for so long, then out of the blue, a stunning audio kiss on the cheek and delicate pinch of the bottom! Just makes you smile and feel joyous!❤️ (complex way of saying it’s a glorious mix!)

What an absolutely stunning melancholic journey. Thank you ❤

A set I played for @low-indigo at The Deli (Vancouver) - April 5, 2025
with Tor & Modern Biology, Ritual Purification, Playback Head, Chris Strickler & Michael Red.

Ambient, Etc [Low Indigo - 04-05-25]

Eighteen sessions in, and somehow, todos still manages to unearth mixes that astound. 

Kilchurn Session XVIII arrives as a continuation of a conversation we’ve been having for over a decade, threading forgotten film cues, elusive ambient B-sides, and left-behind downtempo sketches into a two-hour séance.   

If you’ve followed the Kilchurn Sessions from the beginning, or todos’ end of year ASIP label mixes, you’ll know they’re less about progression and more about excavation: digging through his deeply considered music memory, looping time in on itself, through careful and unexpected edits, seamless blends, and the most considered mix sequencing possible.  - A Strangely Isolated Place

Kilchurn Session XVlll

~ Deep Breakfast 311 by https://soundcloud.com/hame-compathy ~

We are pleased to introduce the new Deep Breakfast mix curated by Hame. Based in Amsterdam, Hame is a talented producer, DJ, and founder of the record label and event concept @pintai. His musical work explores the intersection of energy and emotion, carefully crafting moments of unity on the dance floor. This mix showcases Hame’s unique talent for blending vibrant energy with heartfelt expression, making it a truly compelling addition to your listening experience. He approaches this set much like movie soundtrack, crafting a narrative with different chapters that, while distinct, come together seamlessly to create a captivating and immersive journey.

"The set ends with a track I made, built around words by Teig Sadhana about the vulnerability of men. It’s a subject that comes up often in my work as an applied psychologist, especially in conversations with boys and young men. Some carry unspoken thoughts - like feeling content with the idea of becoming a stay-at-home dad, or not pursuing traditional career ambitions. Sometimes about smaller subjects, like asking for help. Many describe pressure from society, or a lack of support from peers, when it comes to embracing less conventional paths.

I believe there’s a lot to gain, as a society, if men feel freer to speak about these thoughts. If being loved and respected is tied in the mind to career success, self-reliance and emotional toughness, it becomes difficult to let go of that framework. Historically, this mindset has been rewarded with status and security - but that doesn’t mean it’s something healthy for everyone to continue striving for.

We’re often comfortable talking about ambition, strength, and problem-solving - traits we’ve learned to view as charismatic or positive. But many of us were never taught how to speak openly about things that might be seen as weak or uncertain.

And yet, isn’t it one of the braver things - to show vulnerability in the face of discomfort or fear? Toughness can serve many purposes, but I think a more open and compassionate attitude among men toward vulnerability can help us become less protective of what’s been built in the world and in our minds, creating more space for everyone in society."

Deep Space Dreams Freedom 7 Mix

https://soundcloud.com/mattxavier has been a friend of mine for many years now. A fellow music obsessive and trusted voice when it comes to all things ambient, techno, and beyond, we finally managed to meet in person while I lived in Los Angeles, and we stayed connected over music ever since. 

We’ve swapped stories about pressing vinyl and running labels, and he was the reason I first crossed paths with Joel Mull (Damm) at one of his gatherings held at a beautiful Topanga home. It was a serendipitous moment that still echoes today. 

A proponent for the deeper layers found in music, Matt has since become a practician, ambassador, and pioneer for psychedelic soundtracking. Along the way, he shared tracks from ASIP and other labels that were influencing and guiding his private sessions, shaping the grand masterpiece we present to you today. As his practice deepened, we exchanged many texts discussing his ambition to publish a book about his unique experience and include an accompanying mix on ASIP. 

Matt’s new book, ‘The Psychedelic DJ: A Practical Guide to Therapeutic Music Curation and Psilocybin-Assisted Therapy’, (https://a.co/d/5bFxc2h) is a groundbreaking manual for anyone looking to bridge sound and healing. Whether you're a clinician, a DJ, or just someone who knows the power of a well-placed track, Matt’s work will likely reframe how you think about music’s role in inner journeys. 

His isolatedmix is a fully formed and accompanying ‘Protocol’, which is an example of one of his many guided sessions, referred to as “therapeutic DJing.” Psilocybin Therapy Protocol v1.22a, distills his craft and evolution in this practice for us all to dip into at a surface level, providing a peek into what are very personal worlds prepared for his clients. 

Alongside the mix, Matt joins us for a deep-dive interview, discussing his new book, his transition from rave culture to guided sessions, his real-time curatorial method and how music, when chosen with care, can become a tool for transformation.

Sundays are for... [Jun/25]

We are excited to introduce M. Baumann as the curator of the 314th episode of the series.
Out of Brisbane, Australia, M. Baumann - one half of Echo Inspectors and co-founder of Primary Colours Music (https://soundcloud.com/primary_colours_music) - presents a layered excursion into Ambient and Electronica, shaped under the shadow of Tropical Cyclone Alfred.

"This mix was born in stillness - during the long, anticipatory hours before the storm made landfall. It captures the quiet tension of a waiting world: a cinematic drift through instrumentals and textures that evoke both vulnerability and vastness. At its heart, this mix is also an ode to Tapani, Aleksi, and the artists whose emotive, deeply atmospheric works allowed this moment to take form.
A heartfelt thank you to the musicians - without your soundscapes, this story couldn't be told.
I hope you find something in this hour - as I did - that lingers long after the final note."

Featuring works by:
Tapani Rinne & Teho Majamäki
Happiness
Aleksi Myllykoski & Nils Petter Molvær
Grasgrow & Lindgren
Salvatore Mercatante

Deep Breakfast 314 ~ M. Baumann

Heh heh... made from some truly awful bits of AI "music"

Neurogrinder

Detuned Memory invites you on a sonic exploration of fragile recollections and fractured rhythms. Rooted in classical undertones yet shaped by electronic glitch and ambient textures, each track unfolds like a half-remembered story, full of shifting tones and emotional traces.

Experience moments of melancholy alongside bursts of unexpected calm, as delicate harmonies break apart and re-form in gentle chaos. From faded echoes to shimmering distortion, these pieces weave narratives of memory, loss, and fragile hope, encouraging you to reflect, drift, and rediscover.

Enter the world of Detuned Memory, where resonance and rupture collide in a contemplative soundscape offering a journey through broken melodies and still spaces waiting to be heard.
