Over the years ICF has gained a solid reputation for his technical ability, capable of mixing just about anything that passes through his hands. He uses his knowledge and risky selections to converge and mix techno, electro, house, acid, IDM or broken beats. An example of his style is the Holydubs platform, that has been running in the spanish capital since 2009. Functioning with a forward thinking perspective, Holydubs past events have included artists such as Kode9, Mike Paradinas, Objekt, DMX Krew, Pearson Sound, Claro Intelecto, Djrum or Alessandro Cortini, to name few.

He has played in RA 24/7 Bogotá (Colombia), Soundwave (Croatia) or Re:sound (London). Since his arrival in Colombia he became a regular host at the renowned Video Club in Bogotá and broadcasted the ‘Holydubs Radio Show’ on Overcast Radio.

ICF is also half of the VOID project, alongside Posse, in which they focus on the darker sides of electronics, metal, ambient and industrial music.

49th week invites DJ from Zagreb, Croatia - Kris Delač aka @delkris

"Her music is heavily influenced by post-industrial and EBM sounds filled with twisted noise or it's just sloppy beatmatching.
The darker the better, music as dirty as the bottom of your backpack."

The name Betamax stands for quality electronic music and analog warmth in micro/minimal/lo-fi/tech house/breakbeat and electro genres. The show itself is a mix series to represent groovy, funky, and rough sounds to show a more creative and experimental approach to dance music and @Play4n4.

Sieste Ambient #50 - w/ Bur Buk Boon

For our 11th podcast we're glad to invite Cornil.
Cornil is a Brussels based producer attracted both by modular synthesizers and field recording. He's behind Ambient Lay Down events promoting reflective and meditative music.
He’s inspired by soundscapes, mantras, transe ritual, concrete music and industrial sound. From ambient to techno, he’s sculpting sounds and shapes rythms to create unique and powerful trip.
Here some of his words about this podcast:
"Reflexion m’a amené à l’introspection. 
Ce podcast est un collage de field recording, de recherches, d’improvisations et de performances réalisées dans différents états, différents contextes, seul ou à plusieurs. C’est une synthèse de rencontres, d’influences et de sensibilités qui se sont croisées au cours des cinq dernières années. 
Il marque une recherche sonore qui questionne le rapport au temps et à l’espace, met en valeur l’importance de la collaboration dans l’entrelacement des particules humaines. 
Avec la participation de Björn Jauss, Océane Eliard, Grégoire Houcke, Charles Dujardin, Aurélie Baijot, Juanita Onzaga, Joan Bocquet, Rachid Moro, lunar convoy, Justine François, Maïté Jeannolin, Charlotte Marchal, Steevie Qngo"

Melantónia Show x Fango Radio (11.06.2020) curated by @Hanna_Maria_Melantonia.

For this months episode for Fango Radio, Melantónia is pleased to present Toshiki Shimada from the Berlin based collective, Dry Agency.
He chooses to play tracks which differ in style but he has consistent fashion in detail and the core - psychedelic and hypnotic sounds which are cultivated in the fertile club culture in Japan.
His play focuses on creating tension and releasing energy through creating layers.
In March of this year began his series of listening session at "Motif Wein" in Berlin Neukölln, dedicated to ambient music up to spacy jazz.
Thank you for your nicely wide sounding Electronica selection and this excellent mix.

"An invitation to Relax"

For our fourth podcast we welcome Adhémar. A very talented French artist whose work you'll have heard on Oslated and Aarden records.

Please read his note :) 

"This recording is an invitation to relax  and relieve any tensions. 
You can follow the instructions below. 
Stay in Shavasana for as long as you want - let go !
Lie flat on the back with the arms about 15 cm away from the body, palms facing upward.
A thin pillow or folded cloth may be placed behind the head to prevent discomfort. A rolled up blanket can be placed under the knees, heels still touching the ground, to relieve low back tension. 
Let the fingers curl up slightly.
Move the feet slightly apart to a comfortable position and close the eyes.
The head and spine should be in a straight line.
Make sure the head does not fall to one side or the other.
Relax the whole body and stop all physical movement. 
Become aware of the natural breath and allow it to become rhythmic and relaxed".

Enjoy the ride!

Vito doesn't have a bio. It's a puzzle you have to assemble.
Vito's music speak for itself, a narrative visible for minds eyes navigating the cosmic sonic-space through sound manipulation and exploration. A patchwork of words for a patchwork of drones and experimetnal loops.

His mix is called "The Face of Dreaded Forces"

Here's his universe

TREVE series 12 - Vito Lucente (Holy Geometry)

Initiate concept is born from a passion for boundary pushing electronic music. We want to move away from trends of instant gratification to explore club music and its intersections with other forms of musical expression.
 
The sound we wish to share with you makes us dance, pause, reflect and meditate. It takes us away and transports us.
 
What drives us is the exploration of fine tuned sounds that come together to create holistic pieces of music, inducing various states of consciousness.
 
Initiate provides a wholesome space for self-reflection, for bonding with others and for musical discoveries that will challenge your ears and dance moves alike!
