@Maracuyacita

To live in an old shack by the sea 
And breathe the sweet salt air
To live with the dawn and the dusk 
The new moon and the full moon 
The tides the wind and the rain... 
To surf and comb the beach 
And gather sea shells and drift-wood 
And know the thrill of loneliness 
And lose all sense of time 
And be free

To hike over the island to the village 
And visit the marketplace 
And enjoy the music and the food and the people 
And do a little trading 
And see the great ships come and go 
And, man, have me a ball

And in the evening 
When the sky is on fire
Heaven and earth become my great open cathedral 
Where all men are brothers 
Where all things are bound by law 
And crowned with love 
Poor, alone and happy 
I walk by the surf and make a fire on the beach 
And as darkness covers the face of the deep 
Lie down in the wild grass 
And dream the dream that the dreamers dream

I am the wind, the sea, the evening star 
I am everyone
anyone
no one.

Endless naked moonlight swims in the green sensational sea.
Beauty lives within an eye of jade. 
The mystery of music can melt into black and white and dissolve into grey.

All these songs take me back to a period of my life when I used to carry a big backpack filled with CDs, getting ready for my next DJ set back in the day... 
This mixtape is full of nostalgia, dreams, twisted visions of truth, demons and memories of rituals.
Each song is part of my personal collection of CDs and the mixtape was  live recorded, no editing, as I wanted to remember the excitement of mistakes and the natural flow of sounds.

Alma Omega reminds us that a warm embrace in no way needs to be physical. Music can provide that and many other things necessary for us beings of complexity. This journey is far-reaching and draws on sounds and rhythms from across the globe. The overwhelming feeling is one of light, and positivity and union. 

Alma ∞ Omega is a devoted disciple to the Deva-of-dopest-beat, humble slave to the rhythm, and dedicatedly obsessed in serving & perving the wide spectrum of SOUL-MEDICINE music: from organic-shamanic, hip-hop-heaven, dirty-disco, womb-tech-magic, and for music of which there are no genres…if it moves your loins and hips, opens your heart, tickles your toes, and takes you on a journey unexpected, well, this is the buffet of beats you may feast upon…
Alma ∞ Omega is the co-founder of Berlin-based-new-paradigm-gatherings such as Lucid and Cacaophany, and has been passionately opening portals of magic since her first house-party in 1997, coinciding with her life-purpose for creating alchemical spaces of transformation, celebration, healing and releasing…She is an avid believer in the power of DANCE and MUSIC to elevate & connect the spirit of humanity: allowing us to get back to the basics, our roots, our hips, our hearts, our oneness…no dogma on the dancefloor…just a dream within a dream, and a dream we dream together.
Deep deep deep love for music, life, the awakening of the human spirit during these pivotal times on planet earth.

@projeto-mujique

Fabiano Scodeler is professor, master in Brazilian Literature, composer, lyricist, singer and one of the responsible for Galope Discos. Since 2010 he has been a music producer, being at the head of Projeto Mujique. Its sound mixes Brazilian popular music (such as the congada, the batuques of Afro-Brazilian religions and samba), rock and electronic music. But, above all, it performs a search for psychedelic experimentalism, trying to explore several rhythms and possibilities that modern platforms of music production offer. This psychedelic syncretism can be accompanied in its presentations, in which beats, samples, synths, voices, capture of nature and the internet are the basis of sonority. An authorial song that tries not to stick to labels and offer a unique listening experience for the audience.
He has participated in important events in Brazil such as Eletronika (BH), Ressonar (BA) and Virada Cultural (SP) and has been part of Brazilian and international musical collections: Hy Brazil, Voodoohop, Tropical Twista, Quiero Recordings, Altnewspaper and others. His music has been performed on radio stations around the world, such as BBC Radio 3 in London, Electron Libres of Canada and AfterFM (USA) and has also been featured on relevant websites, having been included in the weekly list Of Bandcamp.

@albertbit
in his words:
I am an Israeli Desert boy, raised in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere (Mitzpe Ramon) and currently living in Berlin, Germany. Since a very young age I was exposed to music in a music-loving family, with a lot of freedom to explore many genres and to fall in love with sounds and compilations. In my distant past I was involved in the psytrance scene in Israel in 1995, DJing and organizing parties. As music is a very big deal in my life ( i can safely say - “ music saved my life”) i am always open to new things, to new genres and styles. 
This current flow i am in, the downtempo, ethno-beat, slow tech or whatever you want to call it, i discovered through an amazing co creating community,  LUCID, in berlin. And for now i am really enjoying this flow and always keep my mind, heart and soul for new adventures. I love playing my favorite tracks and taking the listeners and dancers on an emotional musical journey. 
Love

@Maracuyacita

"I had a little boat, I called it “Life”.
Once I went out, and never came back.
All of a sudden, there was a big wind, 
And waves like mountains.
Many things raced through my mind,
And in the lonely chanting of the sea, 
I heard the echoes of eternity.
And in the fantasy of cloud and sky, 
I saw the one who lives, while all things die.
And I was swallowed by the sea,
And lost in the deep,
And washed up on the shore...
When I awakened, the storm was over, and the sea was calm.
It was strange and wonderful,
Like seeing the World, and seeing through the World, 
And when I told the people in the village 
That I went out and never came back, 
They all laughed, and called me The Wanderer 
And I laughed with them, 
They didn’t know, they were The Wanderers, 
And so I found my way, and found my home, on Eden’s Island,
Where the wind has been telling the truth, 
For ever and ever and ever... "
