For this special edition of the Bloom Loops podcast, we're honoured to welcome Ario — founder and curator of the acclaimed Astral Industries label. Widely respected for its impeccable curation and timeless releases, Astral Industries has carved out a unique space in the world of ambient and experimental electronic music, with each release offering a meticulously crafted sonic journey.

In this recording, Ario brings that same curatorial sensibility to the decks, guiding us on a deep and expansive journey. It begins with a psychedelic abduction to another world, and as the mix gradually unfolds you emerge into an expansive world of progressive and vintage tech house before dissolving into deep, swirling tribal techno. True to Ario's refined aesthetic, it is a set that balances both introspection and propulsion. 

Recorded in Hong Kong, at a secret location, this mix is a teaser for the upcoming Rebloom event on Saturday 17th May—where Ario will return to the Rebloom booth for our birthday celebrations, with a special closing set. 

Lock in, drift away and enjoy! Take me to your leader 🛸

Beatrice M. - ‘Midnight Swim’ EP / 23.10.25 / TEC125
Bandcamp: https://beatricem.bandcamp.com/album/midnight-swim-ep

Tracklist:
1. Oval
2. 132 Trek
3. Midnight Swim
4. Slowly Drifting ft. Sub Basics

For their debut EP on Tectonic, Beatrice M. drops four deep, dubby cuts bringing weighted bass energy together with techno sensibilities and advanced percussive manoeuvers. Elegant but powerful tracks built for sound systems and curious ears!

Midnight Swim is an ode to the “softer” club sounds, repetitive aquatic grooves that remind Beatrice of their go-to sport: swimming. No phones, just back and forth in the cold water, settling into a mechanical groove. The opening track, Oval, carries its title from the appreciation of soft edges, little distortion, minimal rhythmic pattern.

Upon hearing Pinch’s tune 136 Trek, (itself a nod to Zinc’s 138 Trek), Beatrice decided to name a tune 132 Trek, to continue the lineage of their musical heritage. The tune was already called Trek because it was made after spending some months in London, and realising “everything is a bloody trek”!! 

The EP’s title track is about warm-up music and enjoying the earlier hours of the party - a quick immersion and then time for bed, rather than banging club tracks all night long. Beatrice likes to show up early at the club, watch it fill and then leave as it packs out. Midnight Swim is a dip into a roller. 

The last tune of the EP features Sub Basics, the first artist to have a vinyl release on Beatrice’s own label, Bait, and one of their biggest musical inspirations. Sub Basics’ immersive progressive sounds fit simultaneously in the deep techno world and the dubstep world. A beautiful in-between.

Midnight Swim EP (clips)

On the latest Line Noise, I spoke to Guy Brewer aka Carrier (and formerly one third of Commix and all of Shifted) about insane drum & bass production skill, Cambridge Hardcore, Berlin and Antwerp, primal feelings and a lot more. His debut album as Carrier, Rhythm Immortal, is released on October 24. Line Noise comes with the support of Cupra.

Dubwise atmospherics flood Guy Brewer's third RA Mix.

Hear the word "Dionysus" and you picture the Greek god of ecstasy: overflowing tables, delirious revelry, chaos. Not the austere soundworld of Guy Brewer, AKA Carrier. On the surface, the UK artist's latest alias feels almost Spartan. But look closer and the Dionysian link starts to show:  it's about shedding fixed forms and identities, to allow something more true, more alive, to form. 

RA.1011 marks Brewer's third entry in the RA Mix series, following editions as drum & bass outfit Commix (RA.269) and, later, the techno alias Shifted (RA.310). "I guess it's an effort to step away from purism," Brewer told <i>Resident Advisor</i> back in 2023. "Right now the thresholds between genres are where you find the most exciting music." 

Carrier's phenomenal debut album, <i>Rhythm Immortal</i>, delivers on that promise. Low-end pressure cloaks like foreboding shadows, punctured only by eerie, otherworldly percussion comparable only to Photek or T++. Listen to the LP in full and it feels like walking through a scene in a true-crime drama: a fog-drenched city street in the deep of night, ambushed by gusts of wind, whispers and strange noises—and it sounds totally, utterly original.

Tracing a line through dub pressure, fractured percussion and narcotic ambience, Brewer explores that same world on RA.1011. As with the album, there's a primal pulse that threads through the recording. Walls of negative space seem to hover before dissolving inexplicably, their tension intact; drums move more like the weather than rhythm. - Bella Aquilina

Neptunian Influence Podcast, Twenty-Six | Featuring @adab

"3000 AD...

The Pan African Liberation Movement (P.A.L.M), having long since established a deep space orbital platform for Earth separatists in a dark region not too distant from Neptune, sends a recovery team to their deep space reliquary, “Osiris” on Neptune’s moon Larissa. It contains a multitude of PALM’s ancestral earth tribe’s sacred (and most secret) relics...

The shamanic council of elders foresaw that Larissa, on a slow spiraling orbit towards Neptune, would eventually start to shatter into a ring around the icy hot liquid giant...

The cataclysmic events have started, the operation is underway...

Extraction operators encounter a myriad of bizarre visual and auditory hallucinations during the mission as the moon slowly disintegrates into Neptune's noxious atmosphere of hydrogen, helium, and methane...

This is one." ~ADAB

Note from Whipnotiq: One of my favorite things about this mix series are the stories that are cultivated from exploring Neptune's influence. I am elated to invite you on this journey, for which ADAB has exemplified the beauty and vastness of Neptune's impact. ADAB, affiliated with Cleveland's @heavenisinyou and @in-training parties, DJ'd at our third annual brunch during Movement Detroit this past May, and we are pleased to feature them in this capacity now.
