Category 4 is a monthly broadcast concept from Michael Brunner [ @four4 ] for Great Circles Radio.

Each episode is broken into four segments, which are connected in some fashion, but routinely unique in many others. This allows for the drawing of comparisons between otherwise disparate concepts, while simultaneously creating enough creative restrictions to focus the musical selections.

The 15th episode comes to us courtesy of Grant Aaron (@insideout), founder of Mysteries of the Deep (@mysteriesofthedeep).

We invite our listeners to guess these categories during the show.
As an added incentive for participation, the first person to guess the categories during the broadcast will be eligible to win a prize. Each month brings new categories and prizes.

The theme for episode 15 was -- Fax, Phase I-IV.

Life moves at such a fast pace that it seems to pass us by before we can really enjoy it. However, it doesn’t have to be this way.

VLB52 is an evolution from Javier Marimon's sound, adapting to a new environment, rain, wet socks, whirling scapes and specially to the sensorial entropy around that our brains are constantly trying to freeze to avoid heavy computations. That is rather speeding up life, surprisingly. 

Javi tells us: “In this live recording, on Rytm, Octatrack and FXs exploring different weather's and now usual wild patterns coming from the forest, there is an intense sound walk around our area hoping you get a bit of that hectic calm life we are also trying to decode”. 

Let’s rebel against a frenetic lifestyle and slow down to enjoy life.

.CHPTR038 ‘Heavy computations’ | VLB52 Live

"Fluctuations between organic and wordly frequencies coming from the middle of the Amazon and cosmic sci-fi frequencies from other realities. An amalgam of sounds that create this unique neural network of pleasant sensations."

After almost a decade immersed in a project focused on the dance floor, Álvaro Aragonés moved to Berlin where he began a new career, relaxed in bpms, where eclecticism and avant-garde prevail. It is in 2016 when he self-releases his debut album “A Place To Be”. Once the project took shape, it is the Navarrese label Sofa Tunes who trusts Daar (@daar_music) releasing his first EP in cassette format "Quetzal". 2018 means the Daar's international debut with an EP-Split  on the Indonesian label “Tandem Tapes”. Finally, 2019 was the year of the project confirmation thanks to an artistic residency at Konvent, working and creating his first live called BORDERS, a project which was born from the homonymous EP released in 12" by F&S Records. 2020 due to the months lived, the result was a studio album that was released last March 2021 by the reputed and prestigious Silent Season label.

OCASO episode 41 tonight with host Enkō and ambient music legend from Norway Mind Over MIDI

Berserk Fabrik owner Mind Over MIDI has been relentlessly releasing ambient music for almost 3 decades, a genre he gently yet expertly manipulates through a series of techniques where he conjoins energy driven atmospheres and small nuanced changes to create movement and mystery.

Our latest podcast was recorded by the Milan-based artists Alessandro Giustiniano  aka Vivian Bell. A familiar name on the local experimental music scene yet Alessandro’s persona and work are still shrouded in mystery when it comes to spaces outside Milan and it makes us really proud to be able to present his beautiful mix as part of our series 🌸

Since the very first listen, we felt that this was a truly special contribution ~ a thorougly researched and thought out trajectory of sonic happenings where the whole becomes much bigger than the sum of its parts ✨

Brace yourself for an hour of subtle and deeply sublime textured sonics swarming with microscopic life carefully set within spacious field recording scenes weaved together with emotive musical passages. One space breaking open into another, each memory holding space for the next to become. We recommend listening from start to finish for the fullest experience. Safe journey, travellers 🕊️

@ligovskoi is an immersive audio-visual project founded in 2010 by Nikolaï Azonov and Valerio Selig. The pair invite the listener into a deep meditative state through their ambient, experimental and drone-focused productions and live performances. With releases on Field and Dement3d, among others, they also develop their sound and visual materials into installations. Their Patterns of Perception 57, introduced below in a short text by the duo’s good friend Victoire Kalamarides, is a serene example of the expansive and deeply contemplative atmospheres Ligovskoï creates.

"Ligovskoï’s set offers soundscapes of consciousness. Like a light that sounds through infinite spaces, the luminous property of their sounds sweep across waves of subtle body motions - one’s breathing patterns - and emotions. Shaping patches into a continuous breath, they present a deep session of inspiration. Their set’s movements give direction to a rain of vibrations that fills space into an electronic sound bath. 
Ligovskoï’s contemplative music supports the listener’s engagement to what is given to be heard. This journey’s sonic qualities resonate with the same qualities one possesses: luminosity, profundity - what one hears is what one is. It is as if the territories sounded by their modulations reflect one’s internal sphere; as to better hear that the limits between what exists outside and inside is porous; a constant be-coming. An envelope of resonance that wraps one’s body into rapture.
The listener’s mind navigates through sonic currents to progress from horizontality to verticality. 
Their measure has to do more with space and less with time: an invitation to take the time to carve more space. It is a profound music that has the ability to alleviate us from the weight of gravity; we feel lighter, like light. Through the final elevation we can find a spiritual revelation: a deep state of relaxation.
Ligovskoï’s music breathes us." - Victoire Kalamarides
