Afternoon @ Waha Festival 2024

From the vaults of the Beyond Within. Living by the Norwegian west coast, pushing through neverending North Atlantic winter storms, combined with deep personal struggles, I found, like always, solace in music. 

This mix was uploaded on a separate Soundcloud-account where I put up experiments apart from my "Psy"-persona. It was quite an inactive account, so when I one day noticed that the mix had been listened to 10.000+ times my jaw dropped. Lots of comments in Spanish, so I suspect that the tag "Cumbia" had gotten some random Latinos interested, and once the snowball started rolling........

So yes, there are some Peruvian "Chicha"-classics there, along with other psychedelic variations of Jazz, Blues and Rock. And yes, the silver flute in the end is a young Raja Ram.

Old-School SuomiSounds from the Beyond...

Strange Creatures 2011

Greetings from the land of eternal spring!

Recorded while living and working at a hidden retreat in southern Ecuador. Recorded for one purpose only: hiking the mountains with Huachuma...

Mein Dzei 2016

Together with Random Records we've made this beast of a compilation. With KWERK I wanted to create a genre within genres, where deep forest psychedelia meets funk, punk and a leftfield kind of mindset. Simply what Bäverdisco always was about...

https://randomrecords.bandcamp.com/album/kwerk
 
To complete this delayed two year project I recorded this journey of highest quality kwerkiness, including some of the artists on the compilation. 


KWERK is released on the 15th of February 2016. All the profits go straight to Survival International, an NGO supporting indigenous peoples around the world. You can buy it on Beatport, Beatspace and on https://randomrecords.bandcamp.com/album/kwerk. Limited CD-edition is available, with beautiful artwork by Whrikk.

Immense amount of gratitude to Dark El Kante, Gojja/Makadam, Captain Kirk, Yhtiöt, Ziog, Ocelot, Discolin, Bechamel Boyz, Salakavala, Eat Static, Whrikk and Monno Dunkel for your passion, expertise and support.

KWERK 2016

A trip down memory lane. Recorded in december 2011, while living by the Norwegian Atlantic coast. Winter darkness, constant fog and aggressive winds - my cure was studio time, tropical fungi and these joooozy froots.

Bäverian Froots 2011

Recorded at the beautiful Human Evolution Festival in Italy late august 2016. Following the theme of the festival I created a journey from where it all began, through our species past, present and inevitable future. Hope you'll enjoy!

Please support the artists and labels who dedicate their lives to fulfill your souls.

Anthropos Logos - @ Human Evolution Festival 2016

As weird as it sounds - I was raised to the sound of the early 90's Ambient Techno scene. Although I was still being breastfed when "Little Fluffy Clouds" hit the charts, the analogue warmth, acid bleeps, gentle pulse and curious yet deep psychedelia of the golden years 1990 to 1994 always felt so strangely familiar.

So how and when did I fall in to this rabbit hole? 2002, 14 years old, buying any record I could get ahold of with "entrancing" music. Hearing more made me crave for more, which made me hear more that got me craving for more. Napster. Kazaa. DC++. Discogs... 
Contemporary trance music felt stiff, uninspired and cheesy, while that 90's Eye Q, Harthouse, Platipus, Superstition and all this Goatrance took me so deep. Especially those who dared to bring the tempo down. So hypnotizing. So challenging. So rewarding... Levitation music....

The last months I've sold off big parts of my record collection, and while digitizing the music I've sold I've re-discovered many of these diamonds. This is truly sacred music for me, music that has been with me for so many travels the last 10-15 years. So I invite you to sit down on your magic carpet and explore space from a time long forgotten.

A Spacetime Odyssey 2016

Excerpt from a 2,5 hour set recorded on a hot, sunny afternoon at Andra Vaerlden Gathering 2017 in Värmland, Sweden. The usual night time madness gave space to my take on playful daytime psychedelia. No Recordbox, no Tractor, no Sync-buttons - just good old CDs with mind-bending/heart-warming psychedelic dance music, beyond genres, trends and dogmas, selected and harvested since forever.

Thank you Moreno Margherita for bringing the recorder, thank you Marcus Henriksson for pushing "Rec", thank You allihopa everybody who participated in this amazing forest gathering. I'm still levitating...

With love,
Sim

Daytime @ Andra Vaerlden Gathering 2017

Excerpt from an all night set at the beautiful chill out barn of my favorite festival. Tropical heat wave in the Norwegian forest, amazing music, flawless aesthetics and my favorite people.

Blissout @ Andra Vaerlden Gathering 2019

One of my greatest memories of last summer was closing the main stage at Andra Halvan in Norway on an insanely hot Sunday afternoon in July. The organizers gave me the blessing to do it my way, resulting in a 5 hour session that still gives me the chills just thinking about it. Many people asked me then and afterwards about the music, but for some stupid reason I forgot to record the set.

Fast forward to last week, when I found one of the USB-sticks used at the gig, still with a music library named "Andra Halvan 2019". Since there's little to no DJ-activity for me in these strange times I decided to record something out of that vibe. Impossible to re-create the golden moments of last summer, but hopefully enjoyable for your private headphone/hi-fi pleasure of summers to come. Please play loud!

Simma lugnt, flyg högt, landa mjukt.
Swimming peacefully, flying high, landing softly.

Functional Music - Afterglowing 2021

Excerpt from a mix from the vaults, probably recorded in 2016, at a giant limestone quarry in central Sweden. Most artists are old farts from Germany. 'Old' as in the direct inheritors of "Autobahn" and anything Kraut. Minimal, repetitive and dreamy - my kind of music for an introspective road trip.

Functional Music - Driving 2016

"... selector extraordinaire, aural archeologist, free-form philanthropist, merry prankster, sonic sufi, and the list goes on..."
