For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Well, that was a weird couple of months. Apologies for the lack of transmissions but I’m sure everyone understands the complete lack of motivation and inspiration that has been cast across the world. That being said, it hasn’t slowed everyone down that's for sure. I’m completely backed up with incredible mixes from incredible people, so let’s get back to our original program. 

In celebration of such, we’re excited to return with a (gentle) bang in the form of episode 60, via the incredibly talented Kia. Unless you’ve been living under a rock (which is completely understandable) you would’ve noticed Kia’s light in many facets; an incredibly talented DJ, a passionate and dedicated label boss, and associated mix series runner (big ol tip’o’that to Animalia // link below), woolen based wunderkind, and most importantly a fucking lovely human being. 

And if you do know Kia then as you would expect, her submission to the series is nothing short of breathtaking. A perfectly constructed soundscape, daydreaming of an above-average paradise. Emotionally inciting on all fronts, it’s nice to feel things again and I think this is perfectly timed with the world opening back up again. The subtly rhythmic pulses of 4x4 drums reactivating that lost sense of liberating yourself on the dance floor (finally back in our sights) and the ethereal harmonies that keep you grounded on the bedroom floor. What Kia manages to do in an hour is exceptional, a short story that translates to a full novel, a true testament to her talent and understanding of music and all of the concepts that go with it. Best served through headphones with room to move.

Enjoy it every way you can. 
 
I hope you’re all well and thank you for listening. 
 
Love.

The next podcast is a special one for me!  And here’s why:

- Dj Rino has a natural instinctive talent towards the craftsmanship of deejaying. 
- This 27 year old Brusseleir has a deep essential love for underground (dance) music and club culture. 
- He also has a soft spot for tunes with a psychedelic, stretched-out groove.
- I truly believe in him as an artist and friend.

This summer Dj Rino was booked at the psytrance and rave festival called Space Safari deep down in the south of Belgium to play a 3h after hour dj set at the Zodiak stage on Sunday morning.

I knew it was an important summer gig for him and he had been busy with his selection and set order for months so I traveled with him, set up my tent, went to sleep & woke up at 7am to hit the misty gray morning muddy dance floor and was blown away instantly. He kept the vibes deep and layered, super balanced and controlled, sharp mixing and a big big smile on his face. The morning sun came to say hello during the last hour and we all shined on. 

Thanks to Dj Rino for your amazing performance, your carefully selected music and full dedication that shapes the Belgian scene at this very moment. Shout out to Space Safari and Tweede Asem for the recording of this delicious psychedelic breakfast. Let’s travel among the stars together with Dj Rino.

The latest firmware update for the Virtual Utopia servers has been released, offering a simulated experience audio-coded by london-based Bethan (@bethan_l). A luscious adventure through dreamy organics, transiently spanning downtempo to trance, all immersed in sheer chromatic layers of formless, ethereal beauty. 

Here, the water glows with an otherworldly luminescence, and the delicate ripples shimmer with a soft purity that calms the soul. You breathe deeply, the clean air surrounding you radiates a warming hum so present it's almost audible. The hum feels omnibenevolent—so harmonious it seems to stretch beyond the boundaries of the physical, vibrating in tune with a dimension where only pure energy exists.

From beneath the translucent waters, something begins to rise—a presence, a fractal unfolding of light and sound, fluid and formless, bending and shifting with the rhythm of existence. It is a living, breathing connection between the unseen and the seen, a metaphysical healer from a distant reality resonating on frequencies higher than those known in our world.
Below these quiet waters, a lotus begins to grow, its petals unfolding as it reaches for the first soft kiss of light. As it blooms, ascending from the depths, it reveals a pure, radiant beauty, untouched by the darkness below. In this moment, it becomes a whisper of awakening—rising above the shadows, embracing the light with quiet grace, a dreamlike reflection of the soul’s journey.

"The lotus flower blooms most beautifully from the deepest and most muddiest water." – Unknown, Buddhist Proverb

DJ ZOZI aka @d-tiffany on closing duties in the last Lighthouse of this year’s spring season. Oozzing sass and style, this set develops from deep, hypnotic dancefloor hooks into peak time mind-bending zozi moments. Full of percussive spice throughout with a signature blend of bounce and break for an ultra Lighthouse send off.

Leuven-born and Brussels-based, Leonardd stumbled into the electronic music scene while working the numbers behind Affair and Horst. His sound, a hypnotic blend of dubby textures and techno whispers, draws from the wells of minimalism, chasing the fine line between introspection and groove. He might be crunching numbers by day, by night he lets them dance.

Super Venus grew up surrounded by dub reggae and 90s trip hop. It shows. Her basslines are daring, detail-driven and full of elegant defiance. She blends unknown gems and hypnotic rhythms, always playing with the unexpected.
