Ecstatic Dance 08

Over The Moon is delighted to present our sophomore release, the debut release from a bright new talent on the downtempo scene.  Encounters, from Bay Area based multi-instrumentalist and producer Tyler Hovestadt, is a project that seeks to find balance between organic musicality and electronic exploration.  On 'A Path Beyond', Encounters gently evokes a sense of calm through uplifting tones and thoughtful progression, enveloping the listener in a cocoon of heart centered magic.

“ A Path Beyond has been in the making for several years, drawing influences from real world experiences and people I've crossed paths with. It is the first album from Encounters with each track composed to evoke a different feeling from its listener. I'm excited to finally share this music with the world.” - Tyler Hovestadt/Encounters

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Tyler Hovestadt began his musical endeavor by experimenting and improvising with synthesizers as a part of garage jam sessions with his friends. After furthering his craft in sound design and arrangement, he went on to produce his own compositions and establish Encounters. Aiming to marry the digital and analog world, Encounters fuses organic, live-recorded percussion with meticulously constructed electronic soundscapes. 

ABOUT OVER THE MOON:

Over The Moon is the sister imprint of Behind The Sky Music, a record label created by established electronic producer Bluetech which is committed to releasing high quality limited edition vinyl presses of analog and modular synth music.  Formed during the pandemic lockdown, Over The Moon is a collaboration between label partners and longtime friends Evan Bartholomew (Bluetech) and Maggie Houtz (DJ Maggie). The two work closely on co-producing the weekly Twitch audiovisual show Holotropic Happy Hour as well as the various artists Matters of the Heart compilation in summer of 2021 for Behind the Sky. Maggie’s love for - and encyclopedic knowledge of - downtempo electronica is the guiding force in curating a catalog of gorgeous and emotional electronic music.   Over The Moon was born out of an inspiration to showcase more explicitly electronic, beat-driven music that sits just outside the parameters of the Berlin school ambient and analog synth-oriented releases of Behind The Sky.

Microcosmos presents the debut album of Translippers, “Herbalism”. This tincture of magic herbs will take you on a trip around the world in one hour.

The perfectly mixed dub rhythm will relax your body, and the atmospheric electronica will inspire you. Prepare yourself to discover an entrancing blend of cultures through distinct flavors of Scandinavian and African drums, ethno-jazz vocals, chants of Miao from China and Chukchi from Yakutsk, Eastern and Latin American percussions, Indian sitar and Arabic oud, guitar, and harmonica.

Translippers is a project of Arthur Mustafin, a composer and music performer from Saint-Petersburg, Russia. In 1984 he gained experience in jazz and rock-n-roll bands, but this changed with his trip to India, where he seriously got into ethnical instruments. This led to Arthur incorporating these instruments into his own production, which significantly transformed his sound. 

As said by author himself, this album is an intricate attempt to return to childhood.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the deep flavor of “Herbalism”.

Track by https://soundcloud.com/ekorce from the compilation "Spiral Roots", compiled by @indra_dj

All the donations will go for establishing a permaculture estate with educational center for kids and adults in a small Croatian village.

Spiral Roots is a connection between organic sounds and mystical vibes. Roots connecting us with our home - Earth, spirals with higher dimensions, trough artists using elements of ancient music for channeling the songs that transcends time and fuses with highly intelligent electronic music production. It’s telling us a story that brings us closer to the reality of our ancestors and plant intelligence, as well as divine spark in all of creation. These squishy organic masterpieces put their listeners into a trance state of mind by combining the very best of ancient and contemporary. Amazing soundscapes of faraway lands, jungles and animals mixed with groovy beats, intelligent glitchy FX and lots of melodies that form bridge between “then” and “now”. Traveling through the hallucinatory layers of mystic and psychedelic organic dub sounds, this compilation brings us on a path of organic bridge created between the roots of the Earth and our existence

She plays at various events promoting alternative/psy culture as well as at the international radio stations. Today she is resident at Mo:Dem, one of the best underground psychedelic festivals in Europe and line up adviser for many festivals and events.

Indra's first serious excursion into world of music was 2002. when she edited music program and hosted the radio project "Baraka", world music show. As a part of DJ's and promoters gathered around the Baraka Collective, she organized and acted at various ethnic-world, dub, downbeat events. From 2002. she started playing psychill. She is one of the residents and organizers of Chillibar events, most popular psychill events in Croatia.

In November 2014. she compiled VA Forest Garden, including her favorite artists, most of them also involved in gardening and natural way of living. The compilation symbolizes life cycle, transformation of the mankind and the Earth. It is a call for a waking up and going back to the roots values and sustainable way of living. In 2019. her second compilation "Spiral Roots" was released, bringing us on a path of organic bridge created between the roots of the Earth and our existence. "Tribal Steps" compilations were inspired by ecstatic dance and tribes gathering with variety of sounds and tempos, inviting for more gatherings like in ancient times.  Last compilation "Horns of Veles" is a fusion of Croatian traditional music with modern psychedelic chill music.

Indra's sound is a fusion of floating mystical atmospheres and deep dub bass lines with ethnic & organic elements, including conscious bass, psydub, tribal, shamanic, global bass and other downtempo to midtempo styles.

Her music is inspired by nature, spirituality, and ancient traditions, often incorporating live instruments like trumpet, didgeridoo, and percussion to create immersive, story-driven sets. Indra’s performances radiate feminine subtlety, positive energy, and a deep connection with her audience.
