"...A lucid dream is a dream in which a person becomes aware that he or she is dreaming and it becomes quite different from an ordinary dream.  For one thing It can be strikingly realistic to the point of producing a convincing replica of the normal physical world and for another it has its own psychological characteristics and range of emotional reactions which have to be considered independently of these experienced in normal dreaming..."

This Thursday Lucid Dreams comes back, the event series focus on ambient and experimental sounds taking place always by night where dreams are confused with reality. This second episode of the series was recorded some weeks ago. The first two hours are by F-on, one of the responsible for Espacio perpendicular who brings us a foggy and hazy nightmare; Then, until the end, Ario, owner of Astral Industries, who delivers a gloomy and phantasmagoric dream masterfully executed

Aired Thursday 10th August 2023 @ 9128.live @astrangelyisolatedplace

Radio show #06 - Lucid dreams #02 F-on & Ario

In this chapter we met Vardae, our beloved Cedric, who suddenly became a great friend due to his curious, interesting and pretty personality.

Vardae (@vardaemusic) is a project with the ambition of breaking away from the genre barrier, to explore new sounds territory around the love of psychedelic music. His productions and performances result in a percussive and hypnotic sound, a combination of tribal rhythms, repetitive leads and atmospheric textures which navigates from dub to tribe, passing through techno and drum’n’bass. Vardae defends a universe where immersion and experience prevail over codes with the idea of offering a journey to each of its appearances.

Javier Marimon (hybrid) @ temple chptr. 2 - 17/2/2024

@javiermarimon explains:

"Arriving into Temple, already dipped into the most sacred silence and the most daring sounds, not seeing but feeling the familiar faces and expert listeners was somehow intimidating, but also encouraging and exciting. I had prepared a hybrid live set, djing several recordings and reviewed old tracks i compiled through the year, on preparation of another live set for Mostra, and a sp404+FX full of sounds, sampled movies, sequences and patterns to fill the gaps and refill the most dance-oriented moments of the set so there could be a little more entropy and fun.

The idea was the "interruptus' vibe where full dances would be difficult but the movement and weird hand twists would arrive through extra filterings, complex pseudo beats and dub passages of the set.

The sound and gear at Espacio Perpendicular are also intimidating for those of us not used to such definition, so the experience was even more brilliant. Doing lo-fi processes into a hi-fi system is such bless.

Thanks everyone, always."

In this episode we had our closed friend Fran Campos.

Aesthetic and vision for the dance floor is unique in our country. @frantios was a resident for many years at the mythical Le Club, in Valencia, and his sound was forged in the time of the "Ruta" and it shows, not only for what he spins, but for how he does it. With Fran, avant-garde and experimentation do not have to be at odds with dancing.

@abstrakce :

"The temptation to play pure ambient non-stop for an hour and a half was big, but considering that the whole event was more or less about that for the whole day, I decided to focus on a more rhythmic approach. An opportunity to play slow and hypnotic rhythms, far from the dancefloor "pressure" and logic, leaving room for the unexpected. It was also a chance to listen to some of my personal favorites on the Espacio Perpendicular's fantastic sound system and share them with the people there. I enjoyed it a lot, I felt 100% free to do whatever I wanted... and the Temple audience was awesome!"

@nigul / @droneghost words:

"Performing at Temple, at Espacio Perpendicular, was a true honor and a great pleasure. I thoroughly enjoyed my session, where I aimed to create a transition between drone and deeper techno. What stands out for me is the atmosphere of respect that is cultivated at Espacio Perpendicular, with an audience eager to hear new things and be carried away by the music. We really need more spaces for ambient and experimental music in our cities, and everyone should take note of Temple."

"I'm happy to share with a larger audience this DJ set that I performed last May at the lost cabin of the self-managed micro festival #perpen24. The musical selection is all about soundtracks that intermingle to create a special score for the occasion. The idea of giving the audience a cinematic experience was well received by a fantastic audience, with a high (and gratifying) commitment, love, and respect towards music and its transmitters. This small perpendicular community let itself be enchanted by this blind film, and it was wonderful. I invite anyone who is interested to experience the same, as always and whenever possible, trying to engage in deep listening without other tasks, alone or in good company... Enjoy!".

"Perpendicular has a special vibe, it always forces you to bring out something very personal, we all go there with an open mind to listen to the unique stories that the artists express, what is created is so magical! It's a pleasure to be able to share with so many passionate and fun people.

On this occasion I wanted to do a set exploring the new trend of fast and psychedelic music, mixing it with dubstep and halfbeat. I hope you enjoy it 🖤".

"I have made this session for Perpendicular Festival 2024, in a wonderful location in the Woods with a special music lover community who had, as me, assisted, listened, danced, and enjoyed three days of an astonishing music experience.
I was the one in charge of the Sunday openning session, so i charged my Vinyl bag with downtempo to wake Up the people on the last leg of this excellent trip.
I Hope those Who listened that day and Who IS listening now enjoy this as i enjoyed made It and play It.
Ps .yes, the final track IS from the master JM. ;)"

@conflation-port

This year at Perpendicular I prepared a 100% vinyl DJ set, starting with sounds from the North Sea and its glacial landscapes that give way to psychedelic territories culminating in a sci-fi universe.
All this surrounded by nature and with an avant-garde electronic proposal very well subject to the most careful current affairs.

"Out now: the recording of my DJ set at Perpendicular Festival (for those who know ;) ). This year, I had the opportunity to play on Friday during the first hours of the festival. Keeping in mind that people were just beginning to arrive, the idea of the set was to balance between slow beats, downtempo flavors, and transitions into more dance-oriented movements.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did".

"I’m excited to share with you a new mix I’ve prepared for Temple Chptr 4 opening duties, tried to explore the sonic landscapes of ambient and drone. 
Is a journey aiming to transport the mind to a state of calm and contemplation, ideal for moments of relaxation or deep meditation.

Each of the tracks has been carefully selected for their ability to evoke emotions and create an enveloping atmosphere. From soft textures and ethereal soundscapes to deep and resonant drones, this mix is a journey through different moods and sensations.

I hope you enjoy the experience as much as I enjoyed playing it.

Thank you for listening and letting yourself be carried away by these sounds."

“I felt very comfortable playing at Temple. Sound was amazing, and it felt very intimate. I improvised a little bit, and played things that I had never played live before. I try to make every performance better than the last one, or at least different. It’s always exciting and challenging, and I think this time was very good.“

"There are places where going without a script is cool, leaving concepts behind and telling a story through the present moment. But there are other spaces, like Temple, that invite the artist to premeditate and perhaps be a bit more vulnerable. Temple was, for me, an opportunity to share fears that rarely surface. To immerse the listener in an emotional environment that, although private and without context, allows each person to find a place in the room.

This live set was inspired by a recent dream. With the aim of creating those same scenes through sound and recordings, I found a script to follow with enough room to musicalize it through improvisation and the moment."

"In the summer heat, a refreshing escape awaits. Icy winds and swirling blizzards envelop us in cold, revealing serene drones and a tranquil, snowy landscape with a still lake under a vast, white expanse. Abstract rhythms and distant voices weave through, culminating in delicate frequencies that leave us in a peaceful, frosty reverie."

For the past 20 years, Jorge Ortiz de Pinedo, known by his moniker STBL (@stable-mechanism), has been developing his work in the realms of electronic music and sound art. With beginnings deeply rooted in the most elusive and daring music, he has strived to maintain a stylistic coherence, oscillating between distinctly minimalist approaches and more "musical" ones, always balancing sobriety and rhetoric.

Author's note: My proposal for Temple clearly reflects all the paths I have been exploring in recent years, utilising field recordings, generative synthesis, and more classical ambient patterns. As is customary, each live performance by STBL is ephemeral and unique to each occasion, making this recording a snapshot of the present and a memory of my appearance at the marvellous Espacio Perpendicular.

#temple_for_listeners is an event dedicated to attentive listening and static dance, curated by Camu and Josephine's Soundscapes for Espacio Perpendicular.

"This mix is really special to me. I wanted to honor Temple by playing music that moves me and rarely get the chance to play— a blend of old gems and new discoveries. I picture this session as 'free-form': The energy shifts and fluctuates throughout, keeping listeners relaxed but engaged for the next acts.

Creating this mix felt like piecing together a puzzle, selecting the tracks I was excited to listen to on the incredible sound system at Espacio Perpendicular. I also kept in mind while selecting, the comfortable and cozy setting, with the cute pillow setup on the floor and beautiful sunlight entering the big windows—making it the perfect place for everyone to really dive into the music. I got to learn, connect with seasoned listeners, and enjoy the fantastic sets of the other artists, all while embracing the sweet, mellow vibe of a gathering like Temple. I was inspired to the core with the full experience, so here are some songs I love for you all :)"
