"Memory Empathy" is a meditation on the past: how it shapes us and how we shape it in turn. Over 12 tracks, New Zealand-based producer DJ Birdbath draws from a varied palette of samples, both real and unreal, conjuring a colourful narrative patchwork. Some tracks are fragmented, with gurgling rhythms built from clipped vocals, like 'Another Day'. Others resemble deconstructed versions of sounds the producer grew up listening to in the UK. Take for example the breakbeat in the euphoric album opener 'Kitsch Memory' or the shoegaze-tinged vocals on 'Flames'.

While a sense of optimism radiates throughout the album — in particular on 'Leftover Igloo', 'Being There' and 'Last Time' — it’s the weird breakages and vaguely organic sounds which add to the complexity of the release and, in turn, make it feel more truthful. The imperfect mimesis is part of the appeal: with repeated listens "Memory Empathy" yields new surprises.

Proud to present a mix from Melbourne / Naarm’s Yunzero. To a degree, a digital file digger (?) if such a thing exists, Jim is able to find countless remixes, bootlegs, viral videos and more to piece together shimmering platters of pop-culture references in his works. Suffice to say there’s somewhat of a departure here - thoughtful slow burners filled with tape hiss are scattered around, but the trademark sound gives way eventually; bootlegs of Carti, ian, Thugger all appear.

Tuning into Daisy’s sonic universe - pass it, spin it, twist it, pull it - what her sets have in common is that they never come out straight.

Fjärilar i magen (Am)

goldener Oktober

This track is a dreamy and ethereal soundscape, built on lush, evolving synth pads that create a sense of tranquil introspection. Subtle, understated lo-fi drums provide a gentle pulse, complementing the melancholic yet hopeful melodic textures. It's perfect for unwinding, focused work, or simply drifting into a calm, hazy state.
