On Board Music - Jin Synth - 09 Apr 2025

"Ground’s soft and damp. I’m not going anywhere. A chest is shaking. Down the hill people walk their dogs. Should’ve broke my heart, I’m frowning. Three different airplanes at the same time. Smell of Earth cracks in the sky. Everything is unreal. I’m not going everywhere. Staying here with you."  - Astrid Sonne

Caliza (@calizaminnelli) is a singer, songwriter and producer from Madrid who has been forging her own career from singularity and independence for almost a decade. With her debut “Medianoche/Mediodía” (2015) she anticipated the current trend of dark synthpop, while her second album “Mar de cristal” (2018), co-produced in an artistic residence at Matadero Madrid with the British DJ David Harrow, represented an opening of Caliza’s sound towards brighter territories. “El descenso” (2021) addresses the climate crisis and the will to survive in a collapsing world. Through captivating melodies and reflective, sometimes dystopian lyrics, Caliza captures the contrast between desperation and resistance. Caliza’s last release is “Despierta unos instantes de tu oscura noche” (2024), her own original soundtrack for the 1920 silent film The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari, which she is performing live alongside the movie. Caliza has shared the stage with some of her major influences, such as Crash Course in Science, Molly Nilsson or Cate Le Bon.

For this episode, our very special guest Horizontal invites us into a slow-burning exploration of space, texture and presence. Drifting between drone soundscapes, haunting acapellas and field recording, each part feels like a quiet ritual, guiding us both through stillness and disorientation. This journey unfolds like a lucid dream, spacious, meditative, deeply transportive.

Chimaera 15 ⊙ Horizontal

"A gentle forest clearing at golden hour. The filtered sun moves lazily through leaves that rustle with quiet purpose. Somewhere nearby, water trickles over mossy stones, and a bird calls once, then is silent. I sit cross-legged on the soft earth, breathing in the stillness. The music doesn’t impose - it simply exists, like dew or wind, cradling the moment without asking for attention."

Baldman (@baldmankid) is a DJ from Pozoblanco (Córdoba) based in Madrid, known for performing across clubs throughout Spain. His style is twofold: on one side, a dynamic club persona—spontaneous and versatile—ranging from early warm-ups to peak-hour sets, blending classic house, techno, UK influences, and experimental sounds across any BPM. On the other, a more introspective approach focused on mood and context, exploring ambient, ethereal, and experimental music. This duality showcases the depth and versatility of his artistic expression.

Recorded a year ago at Espacio Perpendicular (@espacio-perpendicular).

Sybil (Voidspore / London)
청중들을 상상 속 흥미진진한 이야기 속으로 안내하는 스토리텔러로 잘 알려진 Sybil(시빌)은 테크노 뿐 아니라 브레이크, 다운템포, 트랜스, 드론, 드럼 앤 베이스 등 다양한 장르에 능숙하며, 직관적인 선곡으로 댄스플로어의 에너지를 다양한 방향으로 전환시킨다. 시빌과 함께하는 사이키델릭 여행에서는 장르의 유동성과 변화무쌍한 리듬에 대한 특유의 감성을 느낄 수 있다. 그녀는 서로 다른 사운드와 리듬 사이를 미묘하게 오가며 다양한 질감의 음악을 조화롭게 믹스하고, 새로운 사운드와 주옥같은 옛 사운드를 절묘하게 대비시켜 재미와 감동을 동시에 느낄 수 있는 여정을 만들어 낸다.
시빌은 자신이 큐레이팅하는 믹스 시리즈 - Deep Mind Music을 통해 특유의 감각적이고 초월적인 앰비언트 스타일을 발전시켜왔고, 클럽과 이벤트에서는 감동과 스릴, 활력이 넘치는 사이키델릭 세트를 선보이고 있다. 시빌의 디제이 세트는 전 세계적으로 많은 사랑을 받으며 Monument, Crack Magazine, Patterns of Perception, INVEINS, Mysteries of the Deep과 같은 저명한 플렛폼에서 소개되었으며, Paral·lel, De School, Berlin Atonal, Berghain’s Säule, Glastonbury과 같은 세계 최고의 페스티벌과 클럽에서 플레이해오고 있다.

The 78th vurt Podcast features 88-minute DJ set from London base storyteller - Sybil. Join the fascinating stories, ever-changing psychedelic journey.

Sybil (Voidspore / London)
Sybil is a storyteller, her sets bring listeners along on exciting voyages through the imagination. At the core of Sybil’s mystical selections is an emotional depth, textural clarity and a sense of space.
Equally adept at playing propulsive deep techno, as she is at exploring hazy breaks, sumptuous downtempo, soaring trance, expansive drone, and even full-throttle drum and bass, Sybil’s sets often criss-cross through all of these genres and more, as she guides dancers on journeys which are emotive, thrilling and ultimately revitalising. 
Based in London, a notable UK-flair for genre-fluidity and diagonal rhythms can be found within her psychedelic techno excursions. Sybil’s DJing has taken her across revered events and venues on the global stage including: Dekmantel, Waking Life, Paral·lel, Positive Education, De School, Berlin Atonal, WHOLE, Dimensions, La Nature, Mo:Dem, Harmony, Nowadays (New York), Transcendance (Japan), Miscellania (Melbourne) and ZVUK (Kazakhstan).
Whilst Sybil’s club sets are often geared for energetic dance floor exhilaration, her numerous mixes are notable for their highly visual narrative arcs. Subtly accelerating and decelerating between disparate BPMs, she stitches together music from a broad palette of textures, contrasting new finds with long forgotten gems to create memorable journeys which are both rewarding and entrancing. Sybil has released singular mixes for platforms such as Monument, Crack Magazine, Patterns of Perception, Dimensions, Ute, INVEINS and Mysteries of the Deep. 
Ambient sets form a core part of Sybil’s repertoire, and she also curates the much-loved ambient, drone and experimental mix series, Deep Mind Music, which she has run since 2017.

Avsluta - 19th May 2025

Inmersión profunda / euforia contenida

"En este mix rindo homenaje —por enésima vez— al IDM de los 90, también conocido entonces como electronic listening music, leftfield electronica o braindance.
Para mí, esta música de los 90 se caracteriza por producciones ricas en capas y matices estimulantes, con sonoridades jugosas, ritmos intrincados, todo sostenido por estructuras melódicas evocadoras.
Piezas largas para sumergirse y viajar con una visión sugerente y hedonista del futuro — que era, al mismo tiempo, el presente — con una tensión compositiva de euforia contenida y alegría latente, siempre a punto de despegar hacia el éxtasis.
Es evidente la influencia que este amplio movimiento de los 90 ha tenido en la producción y percepción de la música electrónica. Aunque debo decir que mi fascinación viene sobre todo de lo personal: fue la banda sonora de un momento inolvidable de emergencia y descubrimiento, en muchos sentidos, durante mi juventud ".

///////

Deep immersion / restrained euphoria

The era is defined by productions rich in layers and stimulating nuances, featuring lush sonic textures, intricate rhythms, and evocative melodic structures. These are extended tracks intended for deep immersion and inner journeys, often guided by a suggestive and hedonistic vision of the future — which, at the time, was also the present — . The music carries a compositional tension marked by restrained euphoria and latent joy, always on the verge of breaking into ecstasy.
