Before performing one of his rare gigs at this Avatar Events' party, Daniel Segerstad a.k.a. SYNC24 of the one and only Ultimae Records' Carbon Based Lifeforms is joining us live from the studio to get us in the right mood for celebrating.

Started in early years experimeting with tape recorders and simple music players on the Commodore 64 and gradually upgrading equipment and techniques. Having CBL as his main focus and some other projects on the side there’s always room for personal reflections.

SYNC24 is the result of sudden impulse of inspiration, late nights without interference from others.

Itay KUKAN DUB LAGAN is bringing some sunshine for smiling people into the first edition of a new radiOzora show, the Sofa Beats series with a special mix following the talk.

KUKAN-DUB-LAGAN is the project of Itay Berger. Itay is 40 years old, located in Barcelona, Spain. He has been listening and playing electronic music since he was 16 years old. He spent over 3 years working as a sound engineer in one of the top sound and light companies in Israel.
His decision to make music was strongly influenced by his trip to Ibiza in 1997-8. At that time he also started to preform in Israel and abroad at mostly underground parties. Itay's general musical influences are wide-ranging. His journey into chill-out djing started in 2002 in Israel. During that time he was also signed by a UK techno-house label (www.klubdj.co.uk) under the name DJ Itay for a year and flew to Japan to play at parties in Osaka and Kyoto. Returning back to Israel, he enrolled to sound engineering college for one year and totally committed himself to music composition. Drawing from his djing experience, his early family musical influences as well as his own musical background he created his chill-out project: KUKAN-DUB-LAGAN.

The Sofa Beats series continues with GLOBULAR.

Globular's music tends to be a bubbling mass of virtual sounds fluctuating in and out of existence, with the sole purpose of stimulating the ears, tickling the brain and moving the body. Deep dubbed-out bass lines provide the bedrock for the harmonic intricacies and grooving melodies that typify Globular's sound. Inspired by the universe and all it encompasses, and drawing influence from the psychedelic classics, Globular strives to take listeners on a journey of their own choosing, encouraging all who enter to create their own stories and to dance their own dance. Globular's sounds have been guided by thousands of years of musical artistry and attempt to build on, defer to, and entirely remix all that has come before, offering up a new tapestry woven from history and tales of the future alike.

Blue Hour Sounds features Flooting Grooves who joins us for a track-studded talk anchored around all of his "Merwe-els" to spread some more of those very good vibes on the same wavelengths on radiOzora at 8pm Thursday on the Chill channel.

Flooting Grooves is Pearce van der Merwe, born in South Africa, based Istanbul, Turkey at the moment. Heavily influenced by groups like Pink Floyd, Ozric Tentacles, Motorpsycho and Jethro Tull, his production is a fusion of live elements with flute, guitar and percussion with electronica, resulting in a melting pot of pleasurable psychedelia to groove the body and sooth the soul! His music ranges from very chilled downtempo right up to more progressive beatz. Live performances are enhanced by the use of silver flute and computer fx.

This Saturday afternoon we’re focusing EROT from Denmark.

Erot is Tore Kofod born in 1986 in Aalborg, Denmark. As a child he played recorder and drums, but stopped at the age of 9. In an early age he showed interest in electronic music: first it was Kraftwerk, and then later, he expanded to the sounds of Prodigy, Chemical Brothers and such. In the age of 10 he heard his first goa track, and was fascinated and thrilled with this type of music and the emotions he felt.
So in 2004 he started making his own music with FruityLoops, to explore his own inner call of music production, but in the following year he moved to Reason since it offered a wider range of musical possibilities. Finally in 2008 he started using Ableton which he is still using.

In 2007 he was offered a gig at the Danish festival Middle-earth. This planted the seed for his great passion: the love for chill-out music – in the festival he found the sparkle that egnited the flame, and the whole experience changed the perspective of the way of life Tore felt attracted to.

So in a logical evolution, following his inner call, Tore started to create more and more tunes, tracks and sounds, till some labels and the world payed attention to his work. The result was a release under the Danish label Zealotry Music and two tracks on the compilation “Relax Mode” by Blue Tunes rec. Afterwards he had more releases on Zealotry including an EP. But the future seems bright with more releases in his agenda and many more to come.

Tore production skills varies to several ranges, creating mostly positive music with warm feelings, with great groovy and optimistic sounds, he manages to create music with a unique touch, with uplifting moods. But his range follows also more downside paths with reflective and contemplative music. Since the early releases Tore has been faithfull to his unique style, but always pushing new boundaries and experimentations, and the result is the wide spectrum of styles since pure Chill Out, to more ambient tunes, from psychill passing through the more uptempo part of chillout to even progressive music.

Influences:

His inspiration comes from daylife experiences. His creativity flows from the simplest moments in life to most exciting events, where he transforms those feelings in music loosing his mind to the multilayered leads that he creates to turn sounds into emotions.

Up next on Feel Life Music series is GUMI, with an interview about "Underwater".

From the warm waters of the Mediterranean, to the perfect Australian swells, water has always been my home, my refuge, my very core. “Underwater” is an emotional collection of the deep feelings and journeys I’ve been blessed to experience by the vast ocean. "Underwater" presents nine original tracks, three of which are collaborations with Kaya Project, Symbolico and Soru. The album will be out on Jan 25th On Desert Trax.

Gumi is a downtempo elastic journey created by the prolific Tel Aviv producer Maor Hasbani.
In the late 90s Maor was engulfed by electronic music and started avidly collecting CDs and vinyl. Genres such as Ambient, IDM, Breakbeat, Acid, Space Rock, Jazz Fusion and so on, inspired him deeply and set him on a life mission of self- expression through music and sound. By elegantly fusing bold basslines, tribal rhythms, psychedelic atmospheres and ethnic melodies - Gumi’s modern production and analog sound has set a blaze some of the best dancefloors on the face of the planet. Also responsible for the internationally renowned psytrance project ‘Skizologic’, Maor has already rocked Boom Festival, Psy-Fi Festival, Rainbow Serpent Festival, Chill Out Planet Festival, Tribal Gathering Festival, Doof Festival, Samsara Festival and Dakini Festival to name a few, as well as extensively touring Japan and the USA. After releasing two critically acclaimed EPs, Gumi is set to unleash a full debut album in 2021 presenting his new spectrum of sounds and sophisticated storytelling.
