Incredible talent coming out of Basel, Switzerland, Kombé ( @kombe ) for number one hundred & fifteen in the Animix series. With a distinctive deep & idiosyncratic style, Kombé's music tends to be driven by a bassy pulse, pinned together by melodic rhythms,

Kombé is. a resident at Elysia club in Basel & part of the @somatic-rituals crew alongside Mafou & Mukuna.  He has continued on the tip of lush, bassy & dynamic, with releases on @awalkingcontradiction and @subject-to-restrictions

Thanks again for the mix Kombé!

Animix One Hundred & Fifteen: Kombé

For the second podcast on Dreamchannel we are delighted to have one of our hometowns icons in the mix. Deeply embedded in the local music scene and stringing far beyond with regular international gigs, the founding member of the appraised Somatic Rituals label is known for a variety of clubsounds; from driving subwater grooves and introspective rhythmic excursions all the way to trap-infused hitters for the booty-oriented dancers. His diversity in skill and taste of music has provided the soundtrack for many funky nights and will do so for many nights to come.
Today the chef is cooking outside of his usual terrain, stirring together deep bass waves with sad pop lyrics and r'n'b soulcuddles, spiced up by sneaky hyperpop landscape flavours. In a truely colorfull blend of different stages of intensity and switching paces he is driving the train back and forths between Y2K aesthetics and the future beyond tomorrow.
Feels like jumping right into a wave on a hot summer day.
Welcome back to WaveChannel.

We are back with a late happy new year to everyone, greeting the new cycle with another sonic journey; Basel based artist Mirrorange is collecting and researching ambient music in many different forms since years, but just recently started to share this desire and explorations with a broader public. As a producer he is heavily influenced by ambient textures, implementing them into various other genres in which he projects the information sucked up in daily life. 
In this episode the music becomes a vessel for overlapping fieldrecordings, audio-snippets from movies and distorted soundscapes. A journey set to drift into unclear waters as it questions humanity’s role in the development of the machine, opposing cyborg reflections about their ancestors with the sheer ambivalence and vastness of human emotion; a swirl of joy and woe depicting the human complexity, accelerated by the possibilities of their technological creations.

Hello everyone, it’s the second Sunday of the month and we are back with another episode of our podcast series. This time the Dreamchannel Co-Founder Ostrov is delivering an introspective fieldtrip through grainy subterranean landscapes and richly saturated planes. The Basel based musician and sound engineer has a deep understanding of classical and contemporary music which he implements in his own works to create exactly such textures. With the foundation of Dreamchannel and his studies in audio engineering he underlines his aim to create and share music and spaces in which music can happen. 
Experimenting in both soft- and hardware based production approaches, he produces slowly evolving vessels into another world; storytelling like a daydream at night. 
Make yourself comfortable for an immersive cinematic exploration.

The first mixtape we featured in our Fifteen Years Africanhiphop.com series (2012) is in fact one of the first full-length mixes we uploaded to the web back in 1999 under the flag of ‘Rumba-Kali African Hip Hop show’, the predecessor to African Hip Hop Radio. This collection of Senegalese hip hop from cassette tapes was collected in Dakar and pasted together ‘ugly edit’ style using a minidisc deck.
