Mixes

The next journey is coming from the hands and mind of ÂSAN, a New York based DJ and Producer. 

Assan is following the beautiful formula of connecting ambient sounds with techno beat, creating absolutely mesmerising trip through space and time.

Recently contributing to the amazing AEDI Records first release, we are more than excited to be able to present the artist on our platform.

VISION SIX 
https://soundcloud.com/hassansiddiqui90

Behold, dear seeker of truth, for the hour of reckoning, draws nigh. The winds of change whisper in our ears, urging us to venture forth and explore the mysteries that lie beyond the veil of our mundane reality.
With our 6th Vision, we call forth the enigmatic Âsan, a sage of great renown who has delved deep into the esoteric knowledge of ages past. Through his guidance, we are taken on a journey beyond the boundaries of our waking consciousness into the very depths of the soul.
In this state of heightened awareness, Âsan peels away the layers of illusion that obscure our Vision, revealing the realms that lie beyond our grasp. And as we bear witness to the unfathomable wonders that unfold before our eyes, we are forever transformed, transcending the limits of our intellect and awakening dormant parts of our being that we never knew existed.
Through this process of enlightenment, we come to know the omnipresent power that guides us towards our ultimate destiny. With every step we take, we are led closer to our eternal ending, where we shall finally lay down our burdens and bask in the radiance of the divine. So come, my fellow seekers, and let us embark on this journey together, for the path ahead is filled with wonders beyond our wildest dreams.

CELLAR DOOR // PODCAST #115
@hassansiddiqui90

The mix is a live recording of me closing us out at Zion, Brooklyn for the Berlin-based collectives @art-bei-ton party. Shared this long night with amazing peers and friends @settletechno , @mayilovesummer , @hypnotic-black-magic , @akashicmachinee and @deepaksharma_official.

I was on the edge of not putting out this mix for the apparent heavy compression that went on the recorder without me knowing(spoiler alert!!). But when I heard the mix again and again, either sitting at home or commuting to work, I couldn't help myself from enjoying the mix even with the audible compromise.

Many thanks to @hypnotic-black-magic for inviting me and to all the ravers that came that night and stayed till the end.

#115-ÂSAN (live at Zion for Art Bei Ton x Hybrid Identity, Brooklyn, 26.05.2023)

We are kicking things off in 2024 in our podcast series with a special mix that we enjoyed listening to on a beautiful sunny October day, deep in the forests of the Catskills mountains. 
A drone echoes pulse like a heart in the earth, a warm ambiance wraps you as a cashmere hug, and sunlight-kissed melodies dance across the sky. Âsan, our dear friend from Cellar Door Records, guides you through this sonic sunset, each track a brushstroke painting onto the vast canvas of an ideal Saturday.
But as the sun dips, so does the vibe. Deeper tones emerge, shadows stretch, and the rhythm takes on a hypnotic sway. Âsan's mind-bending selections weave whispers into the night, whispering secrets only the forest knows. Feel your worries melt away like mist under the moon, replaced by a hypnotic joy.

This isn't just a mix; it's a sanctuary. An afternoon stolen from time, a shared breath with the whispering wilderness. So grab your headphones, curl up close, and let Âsan lead you on an intimate sonic adventure. After all, 2024 deserves a good start, doesn't it?

If this is the sound of 2024, we're in for a wild ride.

Oslated Universe Live Series.

June of 2024
Oslated Universe Live 10 - Aspetuck & âsan

Full Live Video on YouTube - https://bit.ly/osltube-uni10

* Live set recorded at The Barn in New York, US. (May, 2024)

Aspetuck & âsan present an ambient portion of a live improvised set, performed amongst friends nestled in a barn in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. The set spanned for just over 3 hours as the sun set & the sky turned to black. The two artists met at this very same barn, exactly one year earlier & have been honing their live sets separately for the last couple of months.

- Aspetuck

Oslated, Never Late
New York
US

Aspetuck is an American producer & DJ fascinated by groove & rhythm as well as the hypnotic nature of the deeper sides of electronic music. Growing up in sleepy Vermont, without easy access to any inkling of a nightlife scene, the internet was Aspetuck's only form of musical discovery for those formative days. Years later, after living in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles, Aspetuck was very quickly drawn into the robust nightlife cultures of both cities that was so absent in the rural hills of the northeast. He is not only inspired by the current scene but also heavily inspired by genres outside of the contemporary electronic world including but not limited to krautrock, dub, new wave / post-punk, shoegaze, jazz, soul & funk. Immersing himself in both music production and photography, two creative outlets that seemingly complement & balance each other, he is quietly finding his voice with the help of a broad range of influences to draw from.

NO DAWN with threehz and Âsan @ The Lot Radio 02-06-2025

"A voyage through shifting soundscapes, where sound mutates, evolves, and flows like a dream. Fragments of time, woven into an endless story, shifting between the familiar and the unexplored. A trip through textures and harmonies, where meaning dissolves and reassembles, guided by intuition. The destination is unknown, but the journey resonates long after the last note fades."

Âsan (@hassansiddiqui90) is a New York-based producer and DJ, and the co-runner of the prestigious underground label and mix series platform Cellar Doors (@cellardoorspace), alongside his friend Marek.

Author's Note:

I met Joan in the spring of 2024 when he visited New York for the Delayed Getaway in the Catskills. He’s one of those people who immediately draws you in - bubbly and lively. There’s a curiosity and energy about him, but also a certain mystery that makes you want to keep the conversation going. And that’s exactly what we did. We had long, winding discussions about all kinds of music - the kind you wouldn’t usually hear on a dance floor. It’s the kind of thing you only discover when music nerds get together. Our talks stretched from Japanese jazz to Sufi artists, and somewhere in between.
I already knew about the platform and the incredible artists who had been featured, so when Joan invited me to contribute, I was thrilled - but also a little lost. I had no idea what I wanted it to sound like. I knew I wanted to create something special (doesn’t everyone?), especially since I don’t often explore experimental or ambient mixes. That’s not to say HOC Radio is limited to that- there’s everything from drum & bass to techno, deep house, deep techno, and beyond. For six to eight months, I searched for tracks that could fit, some from my collection and others from my wishlist. I attempted the mix a few times, but it never fully clicked. The tracks were great individually, but together, something felt off. Sometimes, that just happens.
Then, a few weeks ago, a friend lent me his Sherman Filterbank and suggested I try it out, knowing I love alienating sounds. I hooked it up to my computer, ran samples, speeches, chords- anything I could find - through it, and spent weeks jamming. That experiment led to an hour-long piece that finally felt right - it became the foundation of my mix. Like a novel with a continuous backstory, this piece became my anchor, while my own music from the past two years fit in naturally as its chapters. I had finally found what I was looking for.

Sous Silence I - âsan

Every year, the Delayed family invites its dear friends to a weekend getaway nestled in the lush green mountains of Catskill NY. The Barn has always been a very special place and I've met some of my closest friends and collaborates here. Feel very lucky to be a part of such an amazing group of people. And since this spring we are skipping our bi annual trip(busy life) to the mountain, I could not help but share this recording. 

I hope you all enjoy this as much as I enjoyed playing. 

Thank you
