Recording Lowlands Festival closing set

♥️

This mix was recorded live during the closing of the Bravo Stage at Lowlands, in front of more than 10,000 people, from 03:00 till 05:00 in the morning.

Two hours of memories, tributes, and discoveries: an homage to everything I’ve heard, loved, and lived through at a festival like Lowlands.

As BSS, I wanted to make it more than just another dj set, it’s a journey through the music that has shaped all my music taste thru festivals like this.

From Oneohtrix Point Never, The Knife to Underworld, from big podium anthems to the latest gems by friends and peers like Jasmín on Hessle Audio or Vegyn’s Headache, the mix is filled with the artists and sounds that have inspired me on stage and beyond.

You’ll also hear unreleased remixes and personal edits of big songs, unique moments that could only happen there, in that tent, with that crowd.

Standing there, closing a festival this big surrounded by so many beautiful human beings, I felt both the weight of the past and the promise of what’s still ahead. This mix is a thank you, for the music, the friendships, the sunsets and sunrises, and the chance to grow with all of it.

Love,
L.

The German legend talks about the state of modern trance, what it takes to create a legacy and writing his most recent album.

Poll the average dance music fan and they'll have almost certainly heard of Paul van Dyk. The German DJ and producer is so synonymous with trance that it's impossible to talk about the genre's history without mentioning his name. He's also been one of the most successful electronic artists full-stop since the '90s, when he first started touring around Berlin. His 1994 hit "For an Angel" launched him into the limelight, and he's been selling out clubs and arenas ever since.

In this RA Exchange recorded at the Berlin Synth Museum, he reflected on the current state of trance and how its modern DJs are missing the mark; his lifelong engagement with politics and his efforts to enlist Americans to vote alongside Bono; his experience growing up in East Berlin; and a life-threatening accident he suffered at a festival in Utrecht, which left him with multiple spine and brain injuries. He said the experience taught him to cherish every part of life, and that love is the greatest and most healing power that exists.

Van Dyk's most recent album is called This World is Ours, and in this conversation he unpacks the accompanying tour and some of the key themes that run through the tracks—namely, the rise of AI and our need to unite in the face of a non-human ruling elite.

EX.781 Paul van Dyk

A sun-soaked broadcast from two of Naarm's most loved selectors.

Asked once how the name for their joint project started, Simon TK and Edd Fisher responded casually: "We were asked to produce a record fair many moons ago, Wax'o Paradiso was the name of that event," they recounted in an interview. 

Happy accident or not, the name rings true more than a decade later. What started as a record fair has since evolved into an event series and now a record label, with Fisher and TK becoming true pillars of Naarm's local scene in doing so, crafting paradisiacal musical worlds wherever they go.

Wax'o Paradiso is a live act first and foremost. Rarely relying on conventional venues, their parties have become the stuff of urban lore, held everywhere from Fairfield Amphitheatre to an old convent and even a children's farm. Often outdoors, these gatherings carry a breezy, open-hearted feeling, and that flows directly into their sets. Think of it as Australian Balearic: eclectic explorations through warm and rolling shades of dance music, laced with licks of '90s prog and tech house, the spiritual foundation of any good bush doof.

Their RA Mix captures the essence of why the pair have become stalwarts of their local circuit. It isn't a recreation of those beloved open-air sessions, but at nearly three hours long, it settles around you like a summer night—and, for listeners in colder climates, perhaps a bittersweet reminder of one. Most tellingly, RA.1014 is bookended by tracks from two Australian artists across two generations.

Ten years in, TK and Fisher's  focus remains steady: build community, elevate local voices and share the eclectic, joyful sound that has made them a cornerstone of Naarm's scene. Their RA Mix is a clear extension of that mission: warm, generous and rooted in the place they call home.

EXCLUSIVE: Marius Circus - Veggepysj (Prins Thomas Remix) [In The Garden]

She wandered the streets of New York city, lost amidst the chasm of blinking lights and the glow of signs. She could not recall pain like this at any point previously. This feeling of loss and sadness was overwhelming and pointed. Perhaps we humans should care little for one another, eat the heart if you will, pretend it does not exist. This might make life less cold and distant. The concrete beneath her feet groaned as she heavily tread, this was nothing but a walk in the dark. 

Aril Brikha features on a new compilation set for release on Something Happening Somewhere. He delivers a melodic cut in his own truly hypnotic style.
