An intergalactic journey open to the reception of biosounds from remote
solar systems. Letters from alien worlds that tell of infinite possibilities of
life. The soundtrack of synthetic planets aimed at hyperevolution of
intelligent organisms.
৲∙⌓▔◎▴

Pianeti Sintetici ('synthetic planets' in Italian) is a new conceptual project
by Davide Perrone (Primal Code) that draws inspiration from the factories
of Magrathea, a planet in Douglas Adams' classic space opera The
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, where artificial planets are manufactured
on commission.

'This concept has always fascinated me, and I chose the name to frame a
hypothetical future of synthetic worlds, told with sound,' Davide says. 'I
like to imagine the howls of creatures inhabiting solar systems outside our
own. Rarefied atmospheres, alien sequences, and unfamiliar tonal scales.
So, I see Pianeti Sintetici as an open-ended design research project where
I can explore these inspirations.'

"Mi piace pensare ai ruggiti delle creature abitanti altri sistemi solari.
Atmosfere rarefatte, sequenze aliene, scale tonali sconosciute. Vedo
Pianeti Sintetici come un progetto di ricerca aperto, dove posso esplorare
e concretizzare la mia immaginazione sonora e visiva.”

Thank you Davide ♡

Chimaera 11 ⊙ Pianeti Sintetici

We're so delighted to have gifted Ophélie with us for our 25th Herbarium episode. Their mix features a wide palette of fastinating breakbeat, bass music and grey area gems with driving character yet smooth organic aesthetics. It's a wonderful fusion of different moods which melt together as one.

Ophélie chose the moss Atrichum undulatum as inspiration for their mix.
It is quite a lowkey plant but that is actually vital for a lot of ecosystems. Unlike most plants, mosses don't have roots and can grow on trees, rocks, and lots of different kinds of soils. It's a plant that's very adaptable and can survive in a lot of environments and extreme conditions. By soaking up water, they play an important role in the development of ecosystems and allow other plants around them to grow and thrive, and are also a valuable shelter for all kinds of insects and microorganisms. I find their color, form and texture super fascinating and I love their fluffy and soft side. I'm a big forest and water person, which is what the moss represents to me. This mix is definitely forest inspired, it's very inspired by the color green and the mysterious and eerie feeling that one can have when going into a forest on its own. There's also some more liquid elements that add a bit of softness to the mix.

About Ophélie

ophélie is a France-born, Berlin-based DJ with a strong taste for bass-heavy music in all its forms. They are interested in the fluid, liquid, melancholic, and often emotional aspect of music, achieved through combining multiple layers of sounds, and creating weird (poly)rhythms.
As a producer, they enjoy experimenting with FX, textures, granular and generative sounds, and all different kinds of percussions. They released tracks on compilations by Early Reflex and traverse and have released their debut EP on hundert Records in February 2024.
ophélie’ monthly Refuge Worldwide residency, Therapy Dog, and event series at Kwia, allow her to experiment and explore the different genres she’s into, while often sharing the decks with friends and artists she admires. As part of Open Music Lab, a non-profit collective offering free music and production courses for people from Berlin’s diverse communities to connect and create together, she's interested in ways to support emerging artists outside the mainstream, in the hope to build a more equitable music scene.

Herbarium No 25 - Ophélie - Atrichum undulatum

Recording from Mach One

Yorta Yorta Country, Victoria 6/4/2025

Thanks for having me!

Mach One 2025

We are so excited to welcome @opheliek to our mix series. The French, Berlin-based DJ and producer has an affinity for low frequencies, intricate percussions and bass-heavy music in all its forms. As an early lover of dub music, UK techno, IDM, and illegal raves, their sound often finds itself at the intersection between dubstep, techno, IDM, with hints of psychedelic music and trance.

“I had quite a different idea originally for this mix, but ended up being quite ill and super tired the last few days, so the recording had to be much more spontaneous and less planned than what I usually like to do for a podcast. It's more of a feverish dream, and showed me I may have some bottled up feelings and a bit of anger inside (who doesn't, seeing the world we live in now)! It felt good to express it through this mix which ended up being quite intense and psychedelic, but also softer and more introspective in parts.”

For our next offering, we return to the listening room, where we welcome Minimal Collective co-founder Brent Jacko.

"Digging through my archive became a meditative process during a long stretch of recovery, often while reflecting on the Mediterranean Sea or moving through the cold landscapes of the Dolomites. With a reductionist approach, I slowly shaped this one-hour mix: a blend of field recordings, emerging artists, and longtime inspirations, featuring Richard Chartier, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Jon Hassell, Cio D’Or, Loek Frey, ASC, Aleksi Perälä, Shackleton, and more.”

Mutated melancholia. For this episode I’d like to welcome Orb. @orb11

Close close friend, Meanjin based Orb bringing us his disoriented frequencies that cut and pasted over each other. 
Mutated melancholia into echoing drilling textures and muffled howls into shattered digital remnants. It’s real. it’s more than real...

I’m very pleased that he participated and will be the one to guide us through his musical fascinations.

Embodiment 072 - DjSport

The latest release on Madloch's Crossfade Sounds welcomes French producer m.n.lith with a four-track showcase entitled In My Heart. Known under multiple guises including his alias Mime, the Tours-based artist has steadily built a reputation for immersive sound design, drawing from dub techno, deep techno and ambient spheres. His work has appeared on imprints such as Standard Deviationn as well as Melotonin, Insectorama, and Liberty Rhythm, while also serving as founder of LOST AREA, a collective bridging underground culture in Paris and beyond.

Opening with the title piece In My Heart, m.n.lith sculpts a slow-burning journey, where deep-rooted basslines and airy textures intertwine to reveal a hypnotic flow. The narrative continues with Spacew.rm, a collaborative effort with fellow French producer Ganlan, which expands the palette into darker dub territories, punctuated by subtle rhythms and a meditative undertow. Rounding out the release are two further originals, each exploring spacious frameworks and finely layered atmospheres, cementing the EP as both versatile and cohesive.

m.n.lith - Disc.ntinuum [Crossfade Sounds]

This is my uptempo club version of Tripolism’s track Echelon. I wanted to take their already powerful original and give it a faster, more energetic twist that’s built for the dance floor. Heavy grooves, driving energy, and pure late night club vibes, that’s what this version is all about.

Turn it up, get lost in it, and enjoy 🖤
