Kitchen Stories pt1: Gemischte Platte

As the darkness moved towards the day and the stars and moon crossed the sky we ended the peak night of Relish; a festival like no other. Inside an enormous castle shaped tent known as the Boogie Down. With terraced cuddle puddles over looking the dance floor heating vents poking through the walls to ease the cold of the crisp southern night and a light show that set the mood on fire. This was a special one for me for many reasons, amongst them the week spent on the lushest of land surrounded by uplifting community immersed in an event that prioritised every need and comfort you could have or want at every turn.
Truly a wondrous collaboration. Im still blinking to check it was all real. Great news, it was. Fantastic!

The original recording didn't end up recording, classic. So this is re recorded for all those who asked me for it.

Thank you to each and every one of the 500 collaborators who contributed to this experience.

Mia Kober | Saturday Closing Set @ Relish Festival 2023

Relish my spiritual festival home and community.
So blessed to be able part of this next level co-creation and to perform my best self to such a joyous tribe

Relish festival holds a deep place in my heart and this year was the most special for me personally and professionally. 
I felt loved and held and healed by everyone there, I hope that some of this comes across in this music.
Relish I love you!!

Dj set 4 Relish Festival 2023

Sharing my set from the cheeky dance floor we created in the Delicious kitchen of Relish on the early hours of Saturday morning.  It was a real pleasure to come together with such a great bunch to celebrate after what has been a whirlwind of a summer.  And turns out this set captures many tracks special to me over the past few months 💛 some groovy some moody and described by many as 'chill not chill', which is right up my alley!

Big love and thank you to all of you relish family for welcoming me so warmly, it’s been a real treat creating these memories with you!

We all know this moment - you are lying in bed with a loved one and the world stands still.

You put on some music to set the scene for rising temperatures under the sheets…

The set you put on suddenly brings you out of rhythm, but getting up to skip the track is no longer an option.

We have been scouting for the perfect Sunday morning sets for quite a while already and while "Eigentlich heissen wir Klaus" & "Mattmosphere" have been steady suppliers of them for us, we also developed the idea of asking befriended artists to record one hour of music, to which they like to stay in bed with a loved one.

It's an intimate ask, but most of them said yes.

Cuddle Cast #19 comes from Berlin based @its-aliska. We fell in love with her set at Kater Blau for our friends from @pan_tone and we are very happy that she recorded this perfect cuddle sound journey for us. 

So grab your special person, get cosy, press play and be ready to let the love birds fly ❤️

For Cuddle Cast #28 we asked @ciaoella who played a banger set at our @cosy-festival last summer. 

She agreed and proposed to do it together with her girlfriend in crime @francis_ff. 

The result is our fourth couple cuddle cast and it is an absolute beauty, which will keep you below your covers and in the comfort of your bed. 

So grab your special person, get cosy, press play and be ready to let the love birds fly

dtb! continues to explore downtempo. We are interested in looking into the slow music of parallel dimensions (lo-fi, experimental, broken beats, ambient). Therefore, together with our favorite, and already classic downtempo electronc, which today looks like slow house, we publish the work of dj Cipcura. Excellent taste, broken beat and rough sound. Enjoy!

hey friends,
i am super happy to present you a fantastic episode mixed by Francesco Rizzi based in berlin. it's easily one of my favourites. :)
i hope you like it as much as i do, 
drive slow, stay safe <3

"Lazy hours of bright days, the sea lies shimmering with a salty glow. It softly folds into blue waves, breathing calmly and taking its time. Nothing presses here, no obligations, no struggles – just the endless play of light and waves. Sun-dust in every pore, warm air that dissipates. Palms cast patterns on the skin, thoughts drift like boats in the wind. Life dances everywhere, but very quietly – as if it wishes to disturb no one. And somewhere, in the shadow of a straw hat, music shimmers through the heat. Expansive spaces, deep sounds, melodies that desire nothing but to remain. Golden glasses clink briefly, laughter echoes back, then silence once more. Perhaps it rains elsewhere, perhaps a storm rages, perhaps it’s noisy. Here it is now – and that is enough. And from way back there a breeze blows, carrying sounds over, caressing the day. True to the motto: Aspetta e vedrai."

“Träge Stunden heller Tage, salzig schimmernd liegt das Meer. Zieht sich weich in blauen Falten, atmet ruhig und nimmt sich Zeit. Nichts drängt hier, kein Müssen, kein Mühen – nur das endlose Spiel von Licht und Wellen.
Sonnenstaub in jeder Pore, warme Luft, die sich verliert. Palmen werfen Muster auf die Haut, Gedanken treiben wie Boote im Wind. Überall tanzt das Leben, aber ganz leise – als wolle es niemanden stören.
Und irgendwo, im Schatten eines Strohhuts, flimmert Musik durch die Hitze. Weite Flächen, tiefe Klänge, Melodien, die nichts wollen außer bleiben. Goldne Gläser klirren kurz, ein Lachen hallt zurück, dann wieder Stille.
Anderswo regnet’s vielleicht, vielleicht tobt ein Sturm, vielleicht ist’s laut. Hier ist es jetzt – und das reicht. Und von ganz dort hinten weht eine Brise, trägt Klänge herüber, streichelt den Tag. Getreu dem Motto: Aspetta e vedrai."

Another one from my favorite party of NY. The closing of Season 6 with over 600 guests, for another memorable day into night. 

This is my 2 hour set playing at sunset, building up for Theo Meier. I was feeling particularly bouncy that day, which I believe is reflected in the music :) Hope you enjoy! 

Thanks again Jon and Alaya for putting together such a beautiful space for us all <3

PREMIERE: Junky Jam & Aleksandra Mell - Island Breeze [Music Department]

Artista: @danmds
Sello: @naturalrhythm

El productor DANMDS regresa a Natural Rhythm con Oh My, una pieza de Afro House que combina percusiones tribales hipnóticas, texturas melódicas envolventes y un gancho vocal capaz de atrapar desde la primera escucha. El resultado es un viaje sonoro que equilibra groove profundo con una fuerte carga emocional, navegando con fluidez entre momentos íntimos y explosiones de energía pensadas para la pista.

'Oh My' ofrece versatilidad tanto para DJs como para oyentes: desde la delicadeza de un warm-up hasta la potencia de un set en su punto álgido. La producción, pulida y orgánica, se apoya en un sutil trabajo atmosférico que la convierte en candidata perfecta para atardeceres, escenarios de festival y noches de club sofisticadas.

Con este lanzamiento, DANMDS reafirma su lugar en la vanguardia de un sonido afro-dance global, mostrando cómo la tradición rítmica y la sensibilidad contemporánea pueden convivir en un mismo track con naturalidad y fuerza.

PREMIERE: DANMDS – Oh My - Natural Rhythm

German-born David Juno discovered electronic music in Jena before moving to New Zealand. Melody and organic sounds are at the core of the music he is passionate about, through different tempos and moods within the 4/4 realm of house and downtempo. David Juno concocts harmonious brews that enthrall listeners at large and small gatherings; clandestine woodland rendezvous; thundering, pitch-black basement blowouts, light-speed gigs aboard gleaming spaceships, and even interdimensional celestial soirées. He's a regular at XCHC and core member of Mary Hush. David Juno is a sonic conduit - his sets create atmospheric journeys that connect audiences through sonic storytelling, ranging from dark, spacious soundscapes to bright, energetic peaks that capture the full spectrum of human emotion and experience - with all the nuances in between.
