Welcome to episode #105 - Ópalo

Ópalo is the alias of Alejandro Romero Jordan, an Ecuadorian producer based in Quito. Half Peruvian and half Ecuadorian from his mother's side, he is one of the most unknown exponents on the Ecuadorian scene, also getting along with some experimental acts like Rojo or Pinxame which are some of the upcoming artists in the underground scene. The ambient and electronic experimentations of Ópalo combine jazz, downtempo beats and also samples from folk music in his last compositions. Inspired by the sound of the 90's, Ópalo digs ambient music with melodic keyboards to make the audience reach a deep state of contemplation, appearing on labels and podcast series such as @caracteresrecordlabel, @secuencias_temporales, @itsdelayed, @futurepastnosenseoftime, and many others. For this occasion, Alejandro put together a special mix with his productions only.

Enjoy!

my first contribution to the INVITE'S CHOICE podcast from 10+ years ago.

ROGER GERRESSEN - INVITE'S CHOICE PODCAST 183 REPOST

~ Deep Breakfast 308 by https://soundcloud.com/blind-observatory ~

We're thrilled to introduce the incredible German DJ and music producer, Blind Observatory.

Blind Observatory is a highly talented DJ, music producer, designer, and visual artist whose creative work delves deeply into themes of science fiction, futurism, and astronomy. Inspired by the captivating idea of viewing dance floors as "observatories for the blind," his name embodies a guiding principle and serves as a meaningful reminder for David as he explores the vastness and solitude of the universe. His unique artistic approach, combined with an intuitive sense of the energy and flow of a night, enables him to skillfully navigate the delicate emotional spectrum between sadness and joy. This ability has earned him a well-deserved reputation as a true "DJ’s DJ" — someone who understands the art of moving a crowd on a profound level. Since 2024 he is running https://soundcloud.com/gravitational-multiplex together with Vincent Neumann, where he recently released his first solo ep in almost a decade https://gravitationalmultiplex.bandcamp.com/album/entropy-of-me

"With this one I wanted to be it a lush summer mix so I was aiming for a slight water theme. Drifting and Floating. Lots of ripples, droplets, reflections and swirls. Tidal movements and waves with a wiggly undercurrent."

Tracklist:
1. Love Over Entropy - Fortysix [SoHaSo, 2025]
2. Claudio PRC - Prelude [Delsin, 2025]

Deep Breakfast 308 ~ Blind Observatory



mandarín - Take A Trip

This mix is a 3-hour journey I created as a kind of emotional and symbolic voyage — something that moves through darkness into light, into fire, and finally into a slow and tender resolution. 
It’s divided into four acts, each rooted in a different archetype, mood, and sound world. The genres shift along the way — from dark ambient and drone, through deep dubstep, experimental 170 DnB and (dub) techno, with touches of industrial and spoken word — but the emotional progression and sudden change of the genre and pace is deliberate and carefully woven.

ACT I - This act is the fall — a confrontation with fear, grief, the subconscious, and the underworld. It's dense and shadowy, drawing from darker ambient, experimental textures, and raw elements.
It’s about our dark shadow, sitting with discomfort, loss, and the unknown — allowing yourself to be undone.

ACT II - The second act is a glimmer — the first light after darkness. A quiet sense of hope, fragility, and openness appears. Sounds become airier, lighter, more spacious. This act is the breath after grief — not joy yet, but the possibility of it.

ACT III - This is the moment of arrival — fierce love, clarity, aliveness. The music becomes warmer, more energetic, rhythmic. Dub techno pulses emerge, fierce halftime grooves, emotionally expressive melodies. This act is about empowerment, connection, and the fire of selfhood.

ACT IV - The final act is a soft landing — the high fades into reflection and wisdom. It’s melancholic, spacious, and wise. The energy slows but doesn't vanish; it lingers like embers. Spoken word weaves through some of this, offering final thoughts, memory, and insight.
It’s the echo of the journey — not an end, but a return.

The mix is meant to be a whole journey — emotional, symbolic, and immersive — and I’d love for it to be felt that way rather than deconstructed by breaking apart the tracklist.

This mix is the live recording of my set at Free Movements on the 28th of September 2019. I really enjoyed playing this set, sat in a cozy dark room, with my friend Hanzo’s psychedelic visuals swirling on a mesh backdrop behind me.  

This is the first time I've played a Deep Mind Music set out where it felt like everyone was totally dissolved in the music. There's times where it's more appropriate for ambient music to wash into the background of conversations, such as in a chill out space at a rave, but for what I'm aiming to do with this music, I feel it connects more deeply with total absorption into the sound.

I realised there’s three Pete Namlook tracks in this mix, which is a strong indication of how much his music means to me. Including an all time favourite, ‘Calm Box’ which he made with Atom Heart in 1996 as Jet Chamber. It sounds like gently pulsating orbs of light flickering in an infinite expanse of darkness. Pete is a truly incredible artist, whose otherworldly music has touched the lives of so many people. A spirit our world is lesser without, RIP. If you don’t know Pete Namlook’s music or amazing label FAX, I couldn’t recommend having a dig highly enough.

I have to say, I’ve been feeling kind of disconnected from the world this past month. Introspective and far away. Ambient music is something I retreat into when I’m feeling insular, and it means more to share this mix now than when I recorded it in September. I hope this mix gives you a space to breathe, to dissolve into a hologram of sound, and carry you through whatever you’re going through. 💙
