“As the Japanese composer Nas-Kaz once said, sound is like wind — it becomes boring when humans try to control it too much. I feel the same when performing live ambient music. We have reached a time where music cannot be created by thought alone; it has to be allowed to unfold, to breathe on its own terms.”

"Venus appears to me in a dream. The sky is cloudless and I drift into a pine forest, mesmerised by the sound of her flute. I find myself entangled in a dance of indecipherable mumblings that, like the woods' inhabitants, change shape when night falls.
I glimpse a luminous mist in the distance, guiding me towards a veiled cedar cabin. I step inside, abandoning myself alongside the other participants. The melody of the flute begins to distort into a fossilised howl, melting into my eardrums and merging with the echoes of a forest that grows ever more distant.
And in the midst of these rustling whispers, I find myself reduced to dust. The flaming light of the cabin will show me the way out: in the fire of darkness, I choose a new life. "

Spanish-born but now based in Milan, Ultramarín (@ultramarin-blau) explores sound as a vessel of shifting consciousness. Embracing deep listening as a core element in her practice, her aim is to expand the boundaries of perception, going below the surface of what is heard. Distinguished by an eclectic approach, her sets span from experimental ambient to downtempo, to hypnotic and avant-garde techno.

Hendrik & Ridoe opened our clubnight at Bodies In Space in style. Delivering a deep, soaring set that lifted the energy before dancing until sunrise. Our bodies were sent into space and our minds collectively surfed the frequencies.

"A steady current unfolds, each layer locking in with magnetic pull. Atmospheres shift and expand, carrying the listener forward with patient momentum. It’s a journey shaped with precision, immersive yet understated."

Amarat (@izrealfairs) is a Seville-born DJ and passionate devotee of techno sounds. She loves atmospheric vibrations, hypnotic melodies, and evolving progressions that strive to create a deep connection with the music and with oneself.

"Beneath the glow of Aura, psychedelic visions and downtempo currents entwine, pulling the night into a shared dream. Time bends softly as rhythms breathe, weaving a thread between bodies and light. Every moment feels both endless and fleeting — a dance suspended in its own gravity. The room becomes its own universe, and no one wants to leave."

Rochelle (@kittinrochelle) is a Barcelona-based artist, by way of Houston → New York. She has been a dynamic force in the community for over 15 years, championing dance floors and DJ booths alike. Embracing music that defies traditional boundaries, Rochelle explores soundscapes that travel through the raw energy of acid, breaks, garage, electro and house, lately slowing into deep, psychedelic downtempo that bends time and blurs the edges of perception. Each track is found through patient digging, chosen for the way it stirs something just out of reach. Her sets unfold with quiet intent, guiding the room through shifting narratives and unspoken connections. Rochelle finds versatility shaped by perspective, every selection made with purpose; weaving through moods that feel surprising yet precise.

Philipp Otterbach is a German artist, DJ, and electronic music producer known for his experimental and atmospheric approach to sound.
His musical journey began in the underground scene of Düsseldorf, where he became involved with the influential club Salon des Amateurs—a space recognized for its avant-garde take on club music. It was there that Otterbach developed his distinct style, one that prioritizes emotional storytelling over conventional dancefloor functionality.
His productions often feature analog synths, field recordings, guitars, primal percussion, and ambient effects, forming dense and cinematic sound collages. Listening to his work feels like entering a sonic dreamscape—rich in mood, memory, and quiet tension. There's a strong narrative quality to his music, as if each track were part of an imaginary film score.

"From the quiet edges of chaos, a slow pulse emerges — steady, organic, and meticulously shaped. Ambiants horizons stretch wide, where melodies drift with quiet resolve and each groove feels precisely placed. A set that holds its centre as the world softly unravels around it."

He has performed at top venues across France (Concrète, Glazart, Terminal, La Java, Les Jardins Suspendus) and internationally at Tresor (Berlin), Paral·lel Festival (Spain), Contact (Tokyo), Vurt (Seoul), Gare (Porto), and more.

"At Perpendicular, the forest itself seemed to listen back. A singular voice in dub shaped grooves and textures born for that moment alone — drawn from his own hands, his own particle world. Every layer carried the crowd deeper, a dialogue between artist and place. Nothing borrowed, nothing repeated, just a set written into the woods, as fleeting and unshakable as the day itself."
