Snow Storm – Steam-Boat off a Harbour’s Mouth by J. M. W. Turner’s (1842) immediately immerses the viewer in a tumultuous scene where nature and machine collide in a whirling storm of sea, wind, and snow. At first glance, the painting feels almost abstract a vortex of movement and light that seems to spin endlessly around a fragile vessel caught at the storm’s center. The steam-boat, barely distinguishable amid the swirling brushwork, becomes a symbol of human ambition and vulnerability, its mechanical strength rendered powerless against the immensity of the natural world. Turner’s mastery of texture and motion is on full display here: thick, gestural strokes of grey, white, and muted brown evoke the chaos of the storm while dissolving traditional boundaries between sea and sky. The viewer is pulled into the turbulence, sensing both awe and disorientation, as if standing within the tempest itself.

The painting feels less like a literal depiction and more like an experience an emotional and sensory translation of the sublime. Turner claimed to have witnessed such a storm firsthand, allegedly tying himself to a ship’s mast to study its violence, a story that, whether true or not, underscores the intensity of his vision. The work captures not just the external drama of the sea, but the psychological weight of isolation and surrender before forces beyond control. The faint glow that emerges from the center suggests a struggle toward survival or perhaps enlightenment within chaos a hallmark of Turner’s late period, when his art transcended realism to approach the expressive freedom of modern abstraction. Seen today, Snow Storm – Steam-Boat off a Harbour’s Mouth stands as both a technical marvel and a profound meditation on the limits of human power, the majesty of nature, and the beauty that can be found in the midst of turmoil.

For this episode of MuséeCast, Habikat shares a set that reflects his steady curiosity and deep connection to sound. A sonic explorer since 1999 and part of the Afterhour Sounds collective, Habikat approaches mixing with patience and focus never in a rush, yet always attentive. The set drifts through downtempo, deep, and subtle psychedelic shades, staying mostly under 116 BPM. It unfolds with quiet intention, where each transition feels natural and every texture has room to breathe. What emerges is a grounded journey immersive, measured, and true to his way of listening a space where rhythm becomes observation and sound moves without hurry.

Ecstasy at Kauz Zurich, Sunday Afternoon in October 25

In the past months, I played many live sets at festivals and DJed in clubs - and sometimes I left feeling a quiet sadness. I wondered: Is this really what I want to do?
The spaces often felt too fast, too distracted. People were talking on the dancefloor. 
My music - or rather, the subtle worlds I wished to open - didn’t seem to land.

But then, during this ecstatic dance, something shifted.
Everyone was present. Listening. Breathing. Moving with intention.
And I realized again what truly matters to me:
that the art I create has meaning - that it becomes a space to connect with beauty.
Beauty within, and beauty all around us.
The delicate moments, the subtle sounds - those are the ones that move mountains inside.

This set is dedicated to that feeling.
To the stillness beneath the movement.
To the awe that arises when we truly listen.

Mystery 07.11.2025

chameleon #82 by the legend San Miguel finds its place between deeper downtempo and a more modern, driving sound. The mix moves with a quiet pulse balancing introspective moments with a direct forward energy. It’s a thoughtful crossing of moods, where depth meets momentum.
It's been recorded at a remote place full of raw beauty in between mountains, ocean, sunlight and drifting mist.
In addition to all this already, it's filled with a range of unreleased MŎNɅDɅ tracks, ready to be heard the first time 😋.

chameleon #82 - San Miguel

It was already mid-November and so far it had been an extremely mild autumn in the witch’s forest. But this morning it was frosty for the very first time, which meant that Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the witch apprentice) were lazily huddling together and searching for excuses to stay a bit longer under their cozy warm moss blanket. 
Just after sunrise, they heard a loud yell from above. It was Quintine, the witch from Ellezelles who was flying overhead and obviously already very much awake. Quintine is the witch who had gone into hibernation in the year 1610 to escape from being burnt at the stake and who had woken up last year after 414 year-long slumber!
She touched down and announced excitedly that it was Schwof Day that day. Hekske and Falke were absolutely clueless as they had never heard of that day. Then it dawned to Quintine that this age-old tradition had been lost and that 21st century witches had forgotten this important day. So she explained that Schwof Day happens every 5 years on the 5th day after the full moon of November.
The 3 witches didn’t waste any time and followed Quintine all the way to Ellezelles, where they landed in the middle of the majestic beech forest. The woods were still covered under a thick mist blanket, but slowly the sun started to pierce through the fog. And then it happened: the sunrays penetrated through the mist and created a stunning visual spectacle. It looked like a pyramid of sunlight. Quintine was absolutely delighted, and she declared this was even more powerful than the one of 1605!
Then she showed a small cauldron in which she had prepared a special witch’s brew according to an age-old recipe. Just at that moment a raven touched down on Quintine’s shoulder, and he gave her a feather before flying away again. This was the starting sign for the holy Schwof ceremony. Quintine solemnly shucked off her immaculately white dress, and Hekske & Falke did the same. The brew appeared to be a kind of invisible ink. Quintine dipped the tip of the feather in the ink. She scribbled some elaborate invisible symbols on Hekske’s body, before handing over the feather to Hekske. At first, she didn’t know what to do, but Quintine just told her to simply trust her deeper instinct. She dipped the feather in the ink and started scribbling on Falke’s arm. Although she couldn’t see what she was drawing, her hand grew more confident. The feather seemed to know exactly what and where to draw. Hekske drew more symbols on Falke’s forehead, chest, belly and feet. And finally, it was Falke’s turn to take the feather and draw invisible symbols all over Quintine’s body.
Meanwhile, the pyramid of light had become even brighter. The witches solemnly entered the pyramid, after which the magic began. The sunrays made the symbols light up. It turned out that all of them were triangles, accompanied by many different mystic signs. And even more amazing, despite using the same ink, they appeared in a different color on each of the girls. The triangles on Falke’s body had become bright yellow, while the symbols on Hekske’s skin had turned emerald green. And the ones on Quintine’s skin were in a mesmerizing shade of phlox purple. Meanwhile the sun became ever more powerful, and the symbols now really started to glow on their skin. The 3 witches felt a kind of energy they had never felt before, right there in the middle of this light pyramid which only becomes visible once every 5 years. Suddenly, Hekske felt an irresistible urge to dance. Quintine and Falke joined her ebullient moves, which became fiercer and more energetic as the sunlight became ever stronger. This was the start of an intense ecstatic dance session which would last the whole day and the whole night…
