ophélie - 11 Décembre 2023

Our yearly Christmas special has descended — a mix of experimental and off-the-shelf holiday music to lift the spirit.

This festive season is extremely off. 
Images of joy alternate with scenes of terror on our screens and in our thoughts. We hope that this Christmas is a moment not to look away but to gaze inward. Music not only soothes but also nurtures perseverance. Or as Death says, explaining the nature of belief in Hogfather (2006) — “You need to believe things that aren’t true. How else they can become?”

This year’s mix is collaged by Scrying the Landscape’s Hannah Pezzack and Elina Tapio, together with Rubber’s own The Social Lover.

This Excursion was recorded together with my Brother Stefan Yürke.
We focused on the German Experimental, DIY, Synth,Wave and Punk scene from the 80s.
Bands like Der Plan, S.Y.P.H, Die Tödliche Doris and Conrad Schnitzler are just a few of the better known artists from this era.

Frail [Minimal Groove Concept]

Sadboimxstt’s 5-track disco house EP is a deep dive into the soulful heartbeat of the dancefloor. Built on a foundation of lush melodic keys and hypnotic grooves, each track breathes new life into carefully chosen samples from the golden eras of disco, jazz, and soul spanning the 70s through the 90s.

The EP is defined by its memorizing vocals, lifted from timeless records and reshaped into modern-day anthems that blur nostalgia with fresh energy. Funk-driven basslines roll beneath shimmering chords, while crisp percussion locks dancers into an irresistible rhythm.

Every song carries Sadboimxstt’s unique groove — a blend of warm analog textures, hypnotic repetition, and emotional depth that turns simple loops into moments dancing being free. The result is a body of work that celebrates the past while pushing disco house into new, melodic territory.

This project isn’t just for the dancefloor — it’s for late-night drives, sunrise sessions, and anyone chasing that euphoric moment when music feels both timeless and brand new.

Anticappella -- 2√231 (Sadboimxstt Club Remix)

After his releases for years on many top-respected labels, finally we are so happy to host Filizola - one of the most exciting producers on the slow, charming and chilled side of Deep House music.

'Will You' mixes different influences, from more relaxed vibes on the title track to more Housy groovy shades on 'Keep Groovin' - showcasing the artist versatility and open mind.

On the remix duties, Retrofract steps again into our catalogue with another memorable rework, driving 'Will You' into a more dreamy direction perfect for scoring sunsets at the beach.
