I look forward to these every month 💙💙💙

For the sixteenth episode of our Herbarium mix series, we invited Endurance (@joshua-stefane), the label owner of @muzaneditions. He is a master when it comes to exquisit ambient journeys and therefore we are very happy to feature one of his beautifully told stories. 

For this mix he chose Chrysanthemum. Here is why:
I chose the chrysanthemum as the flower for this mix - specifically the Chrysanthemum / morifolium hybrid species, which originated in China and is also popular in Japan. Aesthetically, I think it is one of the most beautiful flowers, with its multitude of florets radiating from the center, or cascading down like willow branches, depending on the type. I love how such flowers can feel so complex and deep, simply through the arrangement of similar elements - and that is something that guided this mix. Using tracks from artists I love, old sound effects records from the 60s and 70s, and my own live improvisations and field recordings, I tried to layer similar or repeating elements over each other to create a complex and cohesive whole. Thank you for listening.

Herbarium No 16 - Endurance - Chrysanthemum

Alfonso peacefully weaving dubby, minimal and hazy rhythms.

"This mix contains several of my current favorite minimal and techno records and also several classic gems of the genre.

For personal reasons, it was recorded at night, with the volume low on the speakers, which complicated the process a bit. It's not my most technically perfect session, but, on the other hand, the situation forced me to make a kind of blend and speech without stridency and this has built a very interesting sleepy atmosphere.

It's the music I could play nowadays at an after hour club and the way I would play it."

rdg tape 18 - F-on

Step into the enchanting garden of Backsteinboot on Eiswerder Island in Berlin, where Francesco Devincenti crafted a mesmerising live set for our event Sonic Botany in collaboration with Popkultur Festival in May 2023. 

Using his modular synth, he weaved a dub-infused journey amidst the lush surroundings. Press play, close your eyes, and let the waves of dub transport you.

o.utlier (Titrate / London)
o.utlier(아웃라이어)는 영국에서 활동중인 아일랜드 출신의 일렉트로닉 뮤지션이다. 그는 프로덕션과 퍼포먼스 전반에 걸쳐 전자음과 어쿠스틱 사운드를 결합한 사운드스케이프를 통해 청취자의 깊은 각성 상태를 유도하는 방식을 즐긴다. 날렵한 타악기와 반짝거리는 신디사이져 소리는 물론, 거친 드론과 필드 레코딩에 이르기까지 다양한 사운드 팔레트를 활용하여 만들어지는 o.utlier의 수수께끼 같은 사운드스케이프는, 어떤 맥락에서든 항상 밀도 높은 분위기와 침착한 전달력으로 뇌를 자극하는 의식적인 여정을 만들어낸다.
o.utlier의 음반은 그동안 Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE]와 같은 레이블에서 발매되었으며, 보다 실험적인 작품을 발표하기 위해 Titrate Records [UK]를 공동 운영하고 있다. 2023년 9월에는 그의 데뷔 앨범인 Alaya가 발매되었다.

o.utlier is an Irish electronic musician based in the UK who  creats soundscapes that combine electronic and acoustic sounds throughout his productions and performances to induce a deep state of alertness in listeners. Utilizing a diverse palette of sounds, ranging from sharp percussion and shimmering synths to harsh drones and field recordings, o.utlier's enigmatic soundscapes create a conscious journey that stimulates the brain, always with a dense atmosphere and calm delivery in any context.
o.utlier's recordings have been released on labels such as Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE], and he co-runs Titrate Records [UK] to focus on experimental works. In September 2023, his debut album called 'Alaya' has released.

Christian Duka is an electronic musician, sound artist & designer, immersive audio specialist and higher education lecturer. His musical outputs span the experimental and left-field electronic dance music both in his solo work and ongoing collaborative projects Vādin (with Avsluta) and MARMO (with Marco Maldarella). 

Christian's passion for immersive sound was sparked by a month-long residency at MONOM 4D Sound in Berlin and blossomed into his multi-disciplinary project UR: Human Presence — an artistic experience involving 3D sound, contemporary dance and performance art. Amazed by the creative potential of spatial audio, in 2019 he founded AMOENUS, an immersive art organisation that supports the development of immersive audio in the arts via R&Ds, events and workshops, most recently on their own custom made 16.4 sound system currently installed at The Bath House in London.

Human Lessons #082 - Christian Duka

"Gather out of star-dust
            Earth-dust,
            Cloud-dust,
And splinters of hail,
One handful of dream-dust
            Not for sale."

Eagerly-awaited deep dream by @syberkid of @deep-mind-music

Very excited to welcome our next guest…

Timnah is one of our favourite artists, and a true master of her craft. Not a week goes by without listening to one of her immersive sonic creations. They hold a special place in our heart <3

Over the years, she has crafted a very unique sonic language that transcends the dance floor, into subliminal rhythmic, ambient, and experimental territories. She has a gift for conjuring dynamic narratives that evoke powerful emotions and otherworldly visualisations.

Timnah has a unique way of drawing the listener into her world, rather than guiding them through their own….. and it’s a beautiful place to be.
