RADIO.D59B / ON BOARD #1 w/ Laura BCR, Nems-B, Refracted

The new episode of our podcast series comes from @lowgravitysound: Technology and imperfection, raw and processed, so many concepts that lie at the core of Futurepast identity.

Low Gravity trained his mixing and production skills in the London underground scene, before he brought his sound to Rome where he co-founded @radiocircolo and Collettivo Sonico. As an enthusiast of electroacoustics and experimental music, he deploys his knowledge to sculpt the sound, and fuse elements from ambient textures, experimental and hypnotic rhythms.

The mix itself features tracks from essential pioneers Éliane Radigue and Suzanne Ciani, Brian Eno, revered sound designers and composers like Tetsu Inoue, Alva Noto, Pete Namlook or Robert Rich, and new coming talents like LF58, Grand River, and of course Low Gravity himself, with an unreleased track.

This month, UK duo Mount Kimbie put out a double-album that is essentially two solo records welded together. It's not terribly surprising: each member lives in different countries (the hip-hop inspired Dom Maker in LA, techno head Kai Campos in London) and they've talked about their differences and what each brings to the table in past interviews. MK 3.5: Die Cuts | City Planning splits the duo's kaleidoscopic sound into its constituent parts, with Maker's side focusing on woozy hip-hop and R&B and Campos's reflecting a love of straightforward '90s techno, as dance floor-friendly as anything the group have ever released.

It's the latter that we're here to showcase with this week's RA Podcast, which is a recording of Campos's new live set. In a way it's a more fleshed-out, comprehensive companion to the his side of the album, but it stands on its own as a blistering techno performance. Combining the melodic sense and quirky arrangement tics of Mount Kimbie with a pulsating, stripped-back approach borrowed from Detroit techno—classic drum machine sounds used to the fullest—Campos reinvents himself as one of London's best techno artists. Like the new Mount Kimbie album, it's different, welcome and impressive.

Deep Electronics Podcast # 54 - Iori

In the next instalment of Futurepast mix series we welcome the visionary Kuba '97. Embark on a transcendent voyage through downtempo realms where time slows and melodies whisper from another dimension. It begins with a gentle invitation as ethereal synth pads and distant chimes beckon the listener to step into the unknown. With each beat, the rhythm leads us deeper into the heart of the experience, where tribal echoes and pulsating bass lines interact with the energy of the cosmos.

As the journey unfolds, psychedelic vibes curl like vines in a lush jungle, evoking visions of ancient rituals and sacred ceremonies. Moments of introspection give way to bursts of euphoria, taking us to new heights of rapture. The music swells and plunges and we are swept away on waves of sound, surrendering to the infinite possibilities of the universe.

As the final notes fade into silence, we are left with a sense of peace and renewal, knowing that we are in the presence of something truly magical. The Kuba '97 mix feels like a portal to another dimension, a glimpse into the boundless depths of the human soul.

Futurepast mix 21 - Kuba'97

For our next Futurepast Podcast, we are introducing Timo Bres, founder of Lowtape, the first collective to revive the 90’s rave spirit in Belgium. On a new creative journey with Disc0punk, Timo Bres is now merging modern beats with the avant-garde vibes of early ‘80s synth-wave, crafting a sound that feels timeless yet forward-looking.

In this set, Timo takes us on a deeply personal journey spanning three decades of music. It begins with a haunting introspection rooted in post-punk and experimental electronica, where subtle darkness and sonic warmth intermingle. Forgotten gems from the early '80s emerge, creating moments where impressions matter more than beats, drawing the listener into a reflective, atmospheric realm.

As the journey unfolds, the mood intensifies, evolving into a visceral, machinery-driven exploration. Timo layers textured acid loops with distorted, mechanical grooves. The soundscape grows raw and immersive, paying homage to the relentless energy of  '90s techno and Belgian crew B.W.P. while forging new paths with futuristic, experimental elements.

This set is a window into the world of Timo Bres. A personal anthology of his musical tastes and influences, paying tribute to the sounds of the past while boldly shaping the future. Each track reflects his unique voice as a selector and his true commitment to sharing music that resonates beyond the surface.

Futurepast Mix 22 - Timo Bres

Thomas Gram delivers an introspective and daring mix, a sonic journey shaped by 20 years of musical exploration. Moving fluidly between ambient, techno, breakbeat, dubstep, and jungle, the set unfolds like a living collage. Despite its wide scope, it maintains a sense of balance throughout, held together by a delicate blend of organic textures and electronic depth.

The mix dives into lower tempos and sub-layered atmospheres, pulling the listener into a shadowy, almost subterranean world. Shifting rhythms and evolving structures invite a focused, embodied listening experience, one that challenges without ever losing its emotional thread.
Refined through 21 iterations, this is a deeply personal selection that reveals Thomas Gram’s uncompromising approach and passion for experimentation. It stands as a tribute to the vast spectrum of underground sound that has shaped his path and an invitation to experience that legacy through his ears.

Futurepast Mix 23 - Thomas Gram

For our next Futurepast episode, Marijn Ottenhof - visual artist, composer, and DJ - conjures a slow-burning, sensorial journey. An hour-long descent into the fog. 

Her mix unfolds like a ritual, beginning with grave, ambient textures that whisper of dystopian futures. This is not just a set, but an invocation: down-tempo, incantatory, and soaked in heartsleeve drone. Edging between experimental electronica, leftfield techno, and haunted soundscapes, each transition caresses the unconscious, titillates the senses, and awakens something primal.

Off-kilter percussion and subtle, mental grooves carry echoes of artists such as Katatonic Silentio, Significant Other, Catarina Barbieri, or Konduku, among others. With a roadmap of darkness-to-dawn, the set leans into emotional complexity: pain as transformation, rhythm as healing. 

From cerebral dance to somatic trance, Marijn Ottenhof crafts a space where the body follows the mind - slowly, completely - into a kind of witching hour fugue state. 

An atmospheric, ritualistic offering. Enjoy.

Tracklist:
1. Demdike Stare / Dasein
2. Eomac / Death Is Ever Present
3. Eusebeia / Repose
4. CORIN / SIMULATION
5. Konduku / Scale
6. Haram Tapes / An Increase in Military Observation and Control
7. Caterina Barbieri / Pinnacles of You
8. Dekalog / Kurzweil
9. Katatonic Silentio / Doom
10. Eszaid / Brumes 06

Futurepast Mix 24 - Dystopian drive

Pastige presents a mix that abandons linearity in favor of a world of textures, a collage of sounds unfolding like a series of rooms. The set is immersive and spatial, where sound becomes architecture.

Shifting between unease and open soundscapes, the mix resists settling. Echoes of trip-hop, touches of post-rock, and bursts of distortion appear, but genre gives way to mood, intuition, and atmosphere. 

Acoustic and electronic elements blend into a kind of sonic meditation in a very immersive way. Hints of nature, ritual, and the occult surface through textured layers, giving the mix a shifting, otherworldly feel.

This project follows loose threads rather than a fixed structure, covering a lot of ground in just over an hour. Its freeform layering invites repeated listens, each time revealing something new.

A guided descent into the in-between, tactile, cinematic, and quietly spellbound.

Deep Electronics Podcast # 98 - Scav

Welcome to the 27th chapter of the Ambient Sessions presented by Deep Electronics. This monthly released podcast brings you the best and the most diversity Ambient music can offer. 

This month set is mixed by Ryan Griffin, owner of A Strangely Isolated Place.

An introduction:

I rarely approach mixes with a concept in mind and often find them developing organically in the process. I did however, want this mix to be a deep journey, which was hard, as I've been listening to lots of melodic synthesizer music recently, so I had to get in the right mind-set for it. I started to picture space, and was partly inspired by this video for an Alva Noto track which is a spectacular combination of imagery and sound. The mix ended up being an accompanying soundtrack to some kind of failed rocket launch - starting with optimism, becoming more intense, experiencing glitches and more dramatic moments along the way, and finally falling back down to earth and more recognizable, familiar ground. It's a little cliché for an ambient mix- but I find it extremely relaxing to picture a journey along the way and felt this one came together quite nicely if listened to as a whole.
