Deep-diving San Francisco-based selectors Mozhgan & Solar are our next guests, showcasing their most spaced-out, psychedelia-rooted records in this special mix for arch.

From android electronics to avant-garde fantasy soundtracks and electro-acoustic manifestations, there’s an audible thread of historian-like knowledge throughout. A window into an outernational post-everything twilight world, trainspotters beware!

Mozhgan & Solar - Arch Selections 21

Foreign is the pseudonym used by Miguel Vázquez under which he plays sets of IDM, avant-techno and electro sounds, combining the smoothness and efficiency of transparent melodies with abstract landscapes and dense atmospheres loaded with complex polyrhythmic structures. Throughout the years Foreign has played in several events of Hard Taste, A.I. Series and in clubs like NAO, Dub Club, Specka, Graffiti, Shagü Club, etc. Has also published podcasts for different record labels and web platforms (Sin Hilo, Gladio Operations, Zanderhythm, Archaic, etc.). In 2022 he created his own label, Mutoscope Records, mostly oriented to IDM sound. Its first release (by Veelargo) was released in November 2023.

Echoes

Melbourne duo @HTRK (Nigel Yang & Jonnine Standish) have a well-storied history reaching back nearly two decades. From a back-catalogue comprising of significant releases on imprints like @Ghostly International, Mistletone and Boomkat Editions, collaborations with luminaries such as Mika Vainio, Rowland S. Howard & @benfrost, and appearances at numerous key events around the globe (including the legendary @berlinatonal festival, Krakow's @unsound and Vivid at the Sydney Opera House), their impact on a vast array of listeners and scenes is indelible and difficult to overstate.

As a two-piece band, their melancholic, sensual music lies roughly at the intersection of post-punk, no-wave, shoegaze and art-rock, with influences from IDM, industrial, noise, dub-techno, pop and beyond. Indeed, it is this eclectic palette, combined with deep knowledge and curiosity that has recently seen them contribute a captivating ambient score for Jeffrey Peixoto's documentary "Over the Rainbow" and regularly deliver genre-defying mixes on platforms like @secretthirteen and NTS.

A starting theme and departure point for HTRK's Patterns of Perception 74 is the ocean. This intricately assembled collection of music finds a natural ebb and flow amongst rich, organic synths and delicate abstract melodies. Building from a slow and introspective beginning, the duo intuitively and carefully guide the narrative to also incorporate gentle energy and a sense of strangeness. 
Viewed holistically, this mix is invigorating and luxuriously diverse, with a true chameleonic quality that allows the listener to take something different from every listen. 

Tracklist:
1. Madalyn Merkey - Besançon (Self-released via Bandcamp, 2020)
2. Kate Carr - Perhaps it was a dream about Water Lilies (Tiny Portraits, 2015)
3. Jasmine Guffond - Yellow Bell (Sonic Pieces, 2015)
4. Vox Populi! - Trois Gouttes De Sang (Vox Man Records, 1985)
5. Joe McPhee and John Snyder - Windows in Dreams (CjRecord Productions, 1974)
6. People Skills - Zoom Meeting (Amplify 2020, 2020)
7. Terry Riley and Don Cherry - Sunrise of the Planetary Dream Collector (bootleg, 1975)
