Best mixes

A space to fall into again and again. A start that feels like an ending and an end that feels like a beginning. A wistful recollection of our motions, an invitation to share ourselves as we have before. A dawn letter written in a shade between sky and stars, echoing gently and begging to be whispered aloud.

From Sweden's @martinou3000 (Sewer Sender, UntilMyHeartStops, AD 93, Appian, Cong Burn), a perfect cadence. Thank you!

VIII ~ Mr. Assister ~ "Perpetual"

As one of the forces behind @ute-rec and one half of Accelerationism, Oslo based DJ, promoter and label head @mariusbo’s singular, trance-infused sound feels both fresh and profoundly nostalgic. 

Starting in 2017 with highly curated open air raves in his native Norway as part of the Uteklubb collective, both Marius and the group have continued to evolve, with the inception of their Ute Rec imprint in 2019 representing the fruition of the group's distinctive sound aesthetic. A string of influential releases from @oprofessionell, The Dosadi Experiments and @mikkel-rev, alongside the high-profile Accelerationism CDs that have seen them collaborate with the likes of @alpha-tracks-official, @s-o-n-s and @sunjuhargun, plus a VA fundraiser alongside @amniote-editions have helped Marius and Ute Rec to quickly garner a global audience, giving them a platform to share their unique vision of psychedelic contemporary trance.

Hitting like a deep, rejuvenating breath in the open air, Marius' Patterns of Perception 92 is a pulsating, private moment for emotions and reflections to cascade and flow. 
Evoking the serene, iridescent embrace of the chill-out room, this mix floats weightlessly in the aether between psychedelic downtempo and ambient trance -  a shimmering assembly of textures and inspirations, both new and old. It is a space for closed eyes, kaleidoscopic perception and slow heart rates - a tonic for the mind, body and soul.

Patterns of Perception 92 - Marius Bø

Rotation 032 comes from a long time friend of On Ro: FROND 
@fr0nd

As well as being a fantastic DJ, she is the co-creator of Pollination, a London based not-for-profit focusing on providing a platform for diverse positive social change through music. 

In this mix, she takes us on a masterfully crafted tour through a variety of psychedelic styles, from deep techno to breaks, trance and beyond. 

Check out Pollination's recent album raising funds to fight the Nationality & Borders bill here: pollination-uk.bandcamp.com/

Rotation 032: FROND

@wednesday_dj had an UNFOLD debut to remember two weeks ago, with a magical set that weaved trance, minimal psytrance and techno into one hypnotic sound.

After steadily making a name for herself over the last year, Wednesday took the opportunity at UNFOLD to explore the darker, faster tracks in her collection.

We can now bring you this UNFOLD set from Wednesday, exclusively released on our DETECT series. You can hear it on our FOLD SoundCloud.

DETECT [090] - Wednesday

SHOP MIX 001

It's been a long time since I posted a mix but after a [mostly] enjoyable battle I was finally able to put something together that I'm really happy with and excited to share.

I had wanted to do something a little slower for a long long time but never managed to see it through. Then about about 4 weeks ago I decided to dedicate myself to the task and spent a few hours each day over a weekend going through all of my records, picking out anything that I could get to roughly the speed I wanted and then tried to figure it out from there. And try I did. The end result, I hope you'll agree, is a slow burning backroom teaser for those looking to escape the madness of the main room and spend a little quality time with their strange uncle Slagbat. A cheeky stomper, you might say.

I would also like to give a big ups to my amazing friends who over the last 12 months recommended some of the albums that I found tracks on for this this mix. Also a big bark out to The House of Dog for being the best darn record shop/dog house there is.

The artwork I found online by https://www.deviantart.com/dietrock.

Slagbat - The Slow Bat Penetrates the Shield

Donato Dozzy at The Labyrinth 2014.

Venue: Naeba Greenland, Gunma, Japan.

-----

To celebrate 20 years of building Labyrinths, we have decided to release one set from each of the last ten years. I've chosen ten timeless moments that both document the history of the event and provide a historical snapshot of underground electronic music over the past ten years.

We have chosen a broad range--from closing techno sets, to morning ambient sets, to experimental sets to close the night. Each set represents a different side of the event. Taken together, they present a portrait of a decade of music.

The Labyrinthの20周年を記念して、過去10年間を振り返り、それぞれの年からひとつのミックスをピックアップすることにしました。イベントの歴史を記録すると同時に、過去10年間のアンダーグラウンドエレクトロニックミュージックの歴史的なスナップショットを提供します。今聞いても色褪せない、タイムレスな極上のミックスをお楽しみください。

テクノのクロージングセットから、朝のアンビエントセット、そして夜を締めくくるエクスペリメンタルセットまで幅広いセレクトですが、どのセットもThe Labyrinthの欠かせない側面を表しており、ここ10年におけるエレクトロニック ミュージックの全容とも言えるでしょう。

The Labyrinth 2014 - Donato Dozzy (closing set)

An encounter with a wayward dragonfly formed the memory upon which London’s Amphybian (fka Harry) stitches this exploration of flight and form. Reliving the scene in its microscopic splendor, we find ourselves wandering along the living, breathing riverbed, set free amidst the realm of the naiad. Our ears attuned, we hear a divine flutter, discern the whisper of a living dream.

PLAYLIST >> https://www.mixesdb.com/w/2017-11-24_Blind_Observatory_@_Ankali,_Prague
This is the first part of an all-night-set I played in Prague’s Ankali club on 24th of November 2017. The party lasted for almost 10 hours and these events took place between 22:57 and 01:50.

A Night at Ankali, Part 1 of 3

Only 12 hours ago, all our equipment went off like crazy. Beeps, bleeps, flashing lights: everything indicated strange vibrations in the nightsky. It turned out to be two seperate sonic signals, transmitted by two seperate sources from within the Super Nature. We managed to record them both, and are happy to share them with you all.

#1 was made by @monamino. She sent us a collage of crystal clear earpleasers and inward spiraling spacial sounds that will explore the deepest caverns of your ears.

Take your time to check it out. The second one will follow later.

Freerotation 2018

the day after

Miss Jay's (@jockey_jay) evocative DJ style has a unique narrative quality, flowing seamlessly between aesthetics, moods and textures. Currently based in Amsterdam, her residency at Groningen's OOST club has functioned as the springboard for her seamless sonic explorations through genres, colours, tones and temperatures.

With notable recent performances at festivals including Dekmantel Selectors and Into the Woods, plus numerous performances at cult clubs including De School, Tresor, Radion, and beyond, Miss Jay is a star on the rise.

Patterns of Perception 55 is a testament to her emotionally nuanced, storytelling style – a deep, sophisticated immersion into bass, breakbeat, and drum and bass music.

The former home of Jagger and the Bat and now here lives only the Bat (living in different continents will do that to a DJ duo). But worry not all the old Jagger and the Bat mixes are here as well as my own solo outings not to mention all of the old Arthouse podcasts ready for you to get your greasy mits on. Have at it.
