I’m very excited to share the second guest to contribute a chapter to my Biophilia mix series.

From sunny Sardinia, deep-sky objects is a co-curator of Out Of Focus — a podcast and event series dedicated to the deeper, more introspective shades of dance music. I’ve really enjoyed their mixes this year; they bring sounds and inspirations from all sorts of different realms.

His mix weaves together organic sounds from faraway worlds, introspective and ethereal soundscapes, and hypnotic rhythms that send your head into a twist. It’s a diverse listen that I keep coming back to. The small ambient interludes between the more beat-driven tracks give the whole thing a mellow, relaxed tone — they reframe the beats and basslines as more than just dancefloor enablers, giving them new purpose within the laid-back flow of the mix.

What is Biophilia I hear you ask? Allow me to enlighten you. Biophilia is a monthly livestream where I showcase the fascinating intersection between techno and the natural world. This platform serves as an exploration space, inviting both you, the viewer, and myself to delve into the intriguing ways techno music and nature can intertwine, despite their seemingly contrasting styles.🌿

Biophilia - Chapter 18 (deep-sky objects Mix)

Liuos seemed to arrive on the dub techno scene all at once with Terms EP, his strong debut on Cold Tear Records, but this was the culmination of two decades of experimentation and discipline. A unique mix of power and spaciousness, of both longing and will, Liuos’ work stands out for its clarity and expansiveness. Working steadily from his modest studio in Finland, Liuos has quietly become a respected name in the world of dub techno, with releases on Cold Tear, Lucidflow, and spclnch, and remixes for Superordinate Dub Waves and Off Records (Belgium).

Techno producer from Germany
Loving the deepe/hypnotic/atmospheric/dub side of techno

Splitting time as @Timesplittersmusic with @passaat88  | Co-organiser @abovebelowfestival 

On the forest floor, we make dance party... Sounds for detritivores

co-curator of Out Of Focus podcast series

Art
As an expression of our desire to escape
The unnerving feelings

Trying to rid ourselves of their importance
And in doing so, we discover meaning

At the bottom of our collective depression
Life does not say by what purpose to live

Only you do.

Harknee is a DJ and producer exploring the intersection between techno music and the natural world.

This exploration sees him take elements of nature, from quiet birdsong to large landscapes, and incorporate them into his work, generating a contrast between repetitive rhythms and the unpredictability of the living world. His creations look to evoke the essence of the earth to create sonic landscapes, placing the listener in the midst of flora and fauna.

He runs a mix series called Biophilia, where he showcases this exploration of techno music and nature and encourages listeners to seek out the beauty of the natural world.

Harknee can also be found performing at the London techno afterhours party, After https://soundcloud.com/afterparties-ldn
