Aeyde Radio Mix 09 is broadcasting now, curated by series guest editor Whitney Wei.
This season’s contribution comes from KMRU, the Nairobi-born, Berlin-based sound artist whose work is founded on intent listening. Years of attuning to the sonic layers of global landscapes have shaped his ability to construct unexpected and immersive sound environments. These have found a home in institutions and showcases such as the Barbican, Atonal, CTM, and Dekmantel.

Whenever KMRU listens to a city, he often thinks of its key note, or the prevailing tone. In Berlin, it's mostly the transportation noises. He approached his entry into the Aeyde Radio repertoire much in the same way. The track "9°C" by Whatever the Weather, the pseudonym of fellow field recording artist and friend Loraine James, sets the "old IDM vibe." Its wealth of glitches and texture draws open the curtains on the mix before voyaging into an hour of softly drifting, expansive atmospherics.

Stagno Records pres. Terre Rare w/ @b1ju
Live recorded at @inbeatwin, Milano
Video: youtube.com/watch?v=98uNHta6Q3o

"Terre Rare S2–04 slips into a vapor-tensioned drift of buoyant pacing and retinal decay.
On the eve of his set for Evolvere x Stagno Records’ season-closing marathon, biju.biju_ steers a procession of lucid fragments—idm-shaped, slow-burning, effervescent. An elastic pace where duration thickens and pneumatic bubbles bloom, contract, and slip away.

In parallel, san_____dro composes a visual séance in long form. Informed by post-squat mythologies, magical codes, and cinematic residue, his images behave like sentient relics—layered, volatile, and on the verge of vanishing. 

A ritual of shared hallucination.

Frequencies fracture, memories disassemble. Unheard cadences and fluid impressions fuse, bending the 𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑟𝑒 into new forms. Vibrations rise, ancestral, synthetic, primal. Reverberations warp, surfaces melt, light and sound seep into each other, distorting perception. 
Season 2 deepens the convergence, expanding the threshold of experience."

For CoziMix 21 we welcome Brooklyn based DJ, Maharam. Maharam is an American DJ and co-organizer of Final Passage, a Brooklyn-based event series emphasizing leftfield curation across both club and deep listening environments. Maharam's affinity for deeper sound is rooted in the melancholic landscapes of his Pacific Northwest upbringing, as well as his background as a guitarist and jazz vocalist. After moving to New York seven years ago, Brooklyn's rich DIY scene has been central to his life, acting as a constant source of inspiration and connection. During this mix he takes us on an atmospheric journey which he recorded spontaneously at 6am on a snowy Sunday dawn at his friend's apartment in the lower east side. 'I wanted to play in my collection of emotive moody trip hop, ambient, and dubby sounds for the cold season.'

CoziMix Questions : 

1. How and why did you get into dj’ing?
Living in Brooklyn, I feel very spoiled by the talent that comes through the city, and I've been very fortunate to have friends with great taste that have led me to some beautiful events. I had been going out for many years before I ever considered DJing, and picking it up after so long was very natural. I had set aside a lot of my musical life after moving to NY in 2018, but rediscovering it through DJing in the context of the scene has been very inspiring. 

2. Who, What/where was your most coziest gig you've been to or experienced and why?
I went to an event at one of my favorite DIY spaces in the fall of 2024 put on by Ballet (shoutout 320 and Blessing). It was a cozy deep listening vibe, where people were lying on mats on the floor. I was really blown away by Significant Other, who played a set spanning shoegaze, folk, and dub, but with a feeling of tender loneliness that left some of the audience in tears. Its not often I experience sets that hold you in the way that one did. 

3. Do you consider yourself an introvert or extrovert in the scene?
I'm probably more of an extrovert, I really enjoy being out and running into people that I've been connected with through music.

4. If you had to choose 1 track to vibe out too forever, what would it be?
Takeo.K - 時々

5. What is your routine when preparing for a gig? Do you have any special remedies/ mental/physical prep/ places to go to? :)
I usually just spend time at home digging, mixing, and playing around in rekordbox, regardless of whether I have a gig or not. I have a pretty intense organizational system that I rely on quite a bit. I've also put a lot of work into my apartment lately, so I enjoy spending a lot of time at home :)
