After a short sunstroke and a well-needed pause, we're gently dusting off the Aquatic Gardens series to make way for its 29th bloom, one that's both fierce and grounding.

This time, the invitation goes to our dear friend @oliver-sj-lund, an Amsterdam local with roots all the way North, and a founding pillar of Noord Space, where countless memories and frequencies have echoed into the day and night. Also known as the digging mind behind Forgotten Tracks, his sonic vocabulary is built on wax and whispers, always pointing toward the rare and the precious.

For this mix, @oliver-sj-lund takes us on a techno-forward path - sharp, deep, and carefully sewn together. It's a ride that cuts through the post-heatwave haze and carves a powerful opening into the weekend.

Strap in, dive deep - the garden is in motion again.

Aquatic Gardens: Oli (29)

Honoured to play an hour at the Eshu Records Open Source Radio takeover show a few weeks ago at the invitation of musical inspiration, superb DJ, and total don Ivano Tetelepta. It turned out quite ‘ESHU’ I guess, chill & spacious & “daytime” as it was a Sunday afternoon, with a little bit more oomph towards the end. As always this mix includes some new & oldie favourites, but there are a few upcoming bits in here as well. Hope you enjoy! Tracklist below.

There’s a rhythm to how the festival unfolds. Thursday opens slowly, almost like a breath in. By Friday night, the pulse is stronger, but not too heavy. Monument festival had settled into its rhythm, and Kia and Polygonia stepped into the wooden dj-booth together.

The forest floor was vibrating, the crowd fully present. Their set matched the moment—playful, warm, and alive. It felt like Friday was always meant to sound like this. Varden became their playground.

This was more than a strong back-to-back. Two years earlier, they met here, both playing solo, both part of the Monument line-up for the first time. This night marked an anniversary of their friendship. From solo artists to close friends, now creating something special together.

For this month's Unrush mix, we're excited to feature Eric Cloutier - a true digger with a deep history in the scene and an ear for detail. His 90-minute guest mix flows through warm, textured ambient with darker, rhythmic turns: subtle, patient, and always engaging.

Cloutier’s path has taken him from Detroit to New York, where his years as a regular at The Bunker New York helped shape his distinct style: deep, body-oriented music with a strong sense of narrative. Now based in Berlin and a resident at Tresor, he continues to bring that same focus and depth to clubs and listeners around the world.

With a straightforward, no-nonsense approach, he has spent years honing his craft. His label Palinoia - named after the act of repeating something until it’s mastered - reflects that mindset: a home for stripped-back, dubby techno and lesser-known talent that fits seamlessly into his sets.

A true digger with an ear for detail — this mix is one to sit with...

Thanks a lot to https://soundcloud.com/cloutier

097 - Unrushed by Eric Cloutier

REC 36 w/ Konduku

Let's head back to Fuse on January 4th for two hours of technical, percussive and ambient soul. Intertwining minimalist techno, UK-influenced bass, and polyrhythmic grooves, he kept the listener focused in dreamscapes as he reflected his influences from labels like Nous’klaer, Spazio Disponibile, and his distinct attention to unconventional time signatures or drum work. This said, Konduku at Fuse offers an accurate snapshot of the universe defining him. Have a listen right here.

Konduku ― Recorded Live at Fuse (04.01.25)

Basel’s Timnah joins our series with a long-anticipated recording from last year’s inaugural pe:rsona, an intimate gathering from the minds at Positive Education. Over the years Timnah has established a reputation for expansive and visionary selections without equal, lending her voice to the beloved Amentia and A Walking Contradiction collectives and leading audiences into captivating unknowns worldwide. Recorded live in the French countryside at the peak of summer, Timnah’s set smolders with delicate tension, lacing outward like tendrils upon shattering glass. An intense, inward-folding moment graciously shared. Thanks Timnah!

Unreleased Mix IV

A veritable staple of the Japanese scene and founder of the Protection label, Haruka joins our series with two hours of delightful, liquiform groove recorded live from Kyoto. Expansive yet dialed in with tireless precision, Haruka’s set transitions between eyes-down introspection and buoyant, infectious energy with ease. To witness this level of craft enveloped by such a warm and vibrant aura is an absolute pleasure, and it’s easy to imagine oneself suspended weightless in Haruka’s element. Thank you Haruka!
