Psychedelic Tunes

Over The Moon is delighted to present our sophomore release, the debut release from a bright new talent on the downtempo scene.  Encounters, from Bay Area based multi-instrumentalist and producer Tyler Hovestadt, is a project that seeks to find balance between organic musicality and electronic exploration.  On 'A Path Beyond', Encounters gently evokes a sense of calm through uplifting tones and thoughtful progression, enveloping the listener in a cocoon of heart centered magic.

“ A Path Beyond has been in the making for several years, drawing influences from real world experiences and people I've crossed paths with. It is the first album from Encounters with each track composed to evoke a different feeling from its listener. I'm excited to finally share this music with the world.” - Tyler Hovestadt/Encounters

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Tyler Hovestadt began his musical endeavor by experimenting and improvising with synthesizers as a part of garage jam sessions with his friends. After furthering his craft in sound design and arrangement, he went on to produce his own compositions and establish Encounters. Aiming to marry the digital and analog world, Encounters fuses organic, live-recorded percussion with meticulously constructed electronic soundscapes. 

ABOUT OVER THE MOON:

Over The Moon is the sister imprint of Behind The Sky Music, a record label created by established electronic producer Bluetech which is committed to releasing high quality limited edition vinyl presses of analog and modular synth music.  Formed during the pandemic lockdown, Over The Moon is a collaboration between label partners and longtime friends Evan Bartholomew (Bluetech) and Maggie Houtz (DJ Maggie). The two work closely on co-producing the weekly Twitch audiovisual show Holotropic Happy Hour as well as the various artists Matters of the Heart compilation in summer of 2021 for Behind the Sky. Maggie’s love for - and encyclopedic knowledge of - downtempo electronica is the guiding force in curating a catalog of gorgeous and emotional electronic music.   Over The Moon was born out of an inspiration to showcase more explicitly electronic, beat-driven music that sits just outside the parameters of the Berlin school ambient and analog synth-oriented releases of Behind The Sky.

Encounters Holotropic Happy Hour Mix - Fall 2023

Due to certain events beyond our control we had a late departure for Spinning Wheel this year. I was scheduled to play the opening slot on Friday but we weren't able to make it in time. Playing music & making people dance is very cathartic for me. With my work being as exceptionally difficult as it has been this year I was really looking forward to sharing my music with everyone. Missing this much needed time behind the decks was a heavy weight on me & I allowed it to stay there for the rest of the weekend. 

In an attempt to shake the bad energy that I (and my life) created for myself I made this. I'd like to think that it went down like this somewhere on the sacred timeline.

This is what I had planned on sharing with everyone for the opening set of the 2023 Fall Classic at Spinning Wheel. I hope you like it.

It was my first time attending the Fall Classic AND also first time spinning on the main stage for FnF. It was an amazing experience playing on the Waveworks system with visuals from the Radiant Atmospheres crew. Truly appreciate the music committee for giving me the opportunity to be part of this event!

I went with some Organic and Afro House to kick off the weekend - hope you enjoy!

FnF Fall Campout 2023

The first episode of the OVER THE MOON Label Series, featuring ENCOUNTERS with this studio mix titled "Free World". In 2021, for DJ Maggie's birthday, Evan Bluetech came forward with a special idea: starting the label "Over the Moon." He recognized that Maggie had the perfect mix of skills for running a record label. Her keen sense for picking out gems in the downtempo genre, coupled with her vast network of artist relationships, made her an ideal choice. While Evan initially collaborated on the label's foundation, he's since stepped into an advisory role, providing insights while DJ Maggie takes the helm as the driving force behind Over the Moon. ENCOUNTERS is the brainchild of Tyler Hovestadt, a producer based in the Bay Area. With a unique style that blends ambient, downtempo, and live percussion, Encounters explores the intersection of organic musicality and electronic experimentation. About the mix, Encounters says: "In celebration of the recent release of my remix album, 'A Path Beyond Remixed', I've curated this mix to provide a serene and tranquil experience—much needed in the trying times we find ourselves in. Featuring tracks from Over the Moon Music and its sister label, Behind the Sky, the mix also includes some of my own unreleased music. My aim is to offer a musical respite that allows listeners to momentarily escape the challenges and stresses of the world by embracing a soothing and calming atmosphere."

Encounters @ Astronox 2024

Over The Moon features ENCOUNTERS in this episode. Encounters, from Bay Area based producer Tyler Hovestadt, is a downtempo electronic project blending ambient, downtempo, and live percussion that seeks to find balance between organic musicality and electronic exploration. In August 2022, Encounters released his debut "A Path Beyond" followed by "A Path Beyond Remixed" in 2023, and “Circuit Breaks” in 2024 with “Veil of Echoes”, his first full length album, scheduled for release near the end of 2025. Encounters has performed electronic music festivals in Europe and America including appearances at Astronox, Infrasound and Stilldream, as well as supporting renowned artists such as Carbon Based Lifeforms, Bluetech, Desert Dwellers and Kaya Project. This "The Other Side" studio mix: "is about transitions: the quiet spaces between chapters, between clarity and confusion. It’s where I’ve found myself lately, in the fog, in the drift, somewhere in between. This mix weaves together new remixes and unreleased music from my upcoming album, Veil of Echoes; pieces that have been slowly taking shape over time. I hope these sounds offer you space to feel, reflect, or just breathe for a while."
