@octalindustries bangin' set, my dude. I'm back to this mix for the lord only knows how many time. Bless

@octalindustries is the solo project of Jónas Thor Gudmundsson. The project was originally founded in 2003 by Jonas and Mike Sickinger, the founder of the Octal label. The debut release of their collaboration was the Automatik EP on the Transistor Rhythm output. Couple of years later they joined their friend Deep Chord for a shared 12“ release, which today is a quite a valuable gem for dub techno lovers. The three of them joined hands together later that year to create a 3x12“ release undir the pseudonym Spectral Network. The release was quite limited (111 copies) and was considered one of the most interesting 12“ releases that year by many critics. 
After the release of the Spectral Network eps the duo went for hiatus as other projects took over, also as opportunity for musical collaborations became harder as the Atlantic Ocean divides them. Jonas continued working on other projects as @ruxpin – producing numerous releases along the way. 
In 2011 the duo was asked by the French independent label @entropy-records to do some releases. As Michael was unable to participate, Jonas went on solo and worked on a full-length release, which later became Meeting of the Waves LP. Another remix followed for G.R.I.T. which was hailed by dubtechnoblog.com as the best remix of the year 2012.   
In more recent years, Octal Industries has been working on numerous collaborations with artists such as fellow Icelander @ohm-599575574 - and fruits of their work has been released on labels such as @thule-records, Rawax, @luckofaccess, @allinnrecords and many more. 
Octal Industries also released works independently in 2019 an EP entitled Julia Sets on @kontaktrecordscph, which featured a remix from the Detroit legend @mikehuckaby – and his second full-length album Our Seasons, which was released on Vertex in December 2019. 
Octal Industries, although being Icelandic in origin, works and resides in Tallinn, Estonia. 
Stay Rave with #R13!

GREYSCALE Special 037 - Octal Industries

Four years ago, we got @Joachim-Spieth killer techno mix. Now, after four amazing albums, he's back, serving up some ambient goodness. The quality is next level, we're seriously spoiled! As you probably know, he is running amazing @Affin Records so buy directly from him. He just released beautiful mini album with @MarkusGuentner.

Madah Sounds Present @Substak

The Fog Of Sound.
The fog clings to empty fields, enveloping the landscape in a humming silence. A lone figure roams, holding an old camera and a tape recorder. With each step, they trace the lines of a forgotten town, where crumbling walls and loose doors sway in the faintest breeze. The camera captures it all—the marks of time and decay. Each grain on the film tells a story of resilience, pressed into the shadows and dust.

As the recorder clicks on, it gathers the remaining sounds: the creak of old wood, the wind whispering through cracked windows, and the echoes of distant memories caught in the rustle of dry leaves. These are the faint rhythms of endurance, of lives once present but now hidden in the vibrations of things left behind.

When night falls, they listen back, layering the sounds into a rough, broken symphony. Each hiss and crackle, each grainy note speaks of persistence, pulsing like a heartbeat. The imperfect harmony carries a warmth that refuses to vanish, a resonance that lingers even in the cold.

Hope resides in this tapestry of sonic grain and shadowed light—not as a bright promise but as a quiet, stubborn force. It lives in the textures of analogue, in the hiss and hum that remind us there is beauty in what remains, even as the world fades.

Artist: Hidden Sequence [Mosaic / Lempuyang / Alt Dub / Moon Garden / Silent Season]

Our 12th journey takes until into the joint minds of Paul Simmons and Stefano Ugliano (6884) aka… Hidden Sequence. The Duo have been playing and producing together since they met in 2020. Individually they both have their own unique sound and skill sets. Paul, born and raised in London, has been DJ’ing across the world for over two decades while Stefano , is an Italian born self confessed studio dweller and sound sculptor. As is often the case with duos of this nature, what they bring to the table is even greater than the individual parts. Their music has been a breath of fresh air within the Dub Techno community since their arrival on the scene.   

Production wise they have had a string over incredible releases over the last few years with music coming 200 Records, Mosaic, Lempuyang, Alt Dub, Ausblick, Moon Garden and OHM Series. Quite the resume for this relatively new collaboration. Having had some great conversations with the guys, we are extremely excited to hear what they have planned and forthcoming over the next weeks and months.   

For their contribution to the Frontier series they have turned in an incredible hour of music. We float through some beautiful ambient cuts, some bass wobbling, head nodding Dub, Roots & Reggae, and onward into the world for 4/4 dub techno. They really went to town on this mix and we are honoured that they have packed in lots of unreleased material.   

We would like to thank Hidden Sequence for this mix, we are honoured to be able to host such a talented pair. Keep an eye out for everything they have coming up as it’s not to be slept on.

31 May • open-air “Barbecue with the Neighbours” at Sirin Bar: thick dub on take-off, a sharp turn onto the Romanian techno highway, a flight into uncharted Japanese realms, and a finish-line burst on a heavy groove. More than a barbecue—this one grills your mind.
