builds to a pitch,

phases and hitches
the patterns and cycles of
deluges past
to a future diluvium,
planetary, vast."

Fall Equinox 2018 - Incense Trees by Cyme

Plucky mid tones, and atmospherics pads are coming together to form the forebodes of a journey.

“Millions of colors only irradiate our track of infinite sorrow.” (Unjin Yeo)

People come into your life with their colors, you form them, you get formed. Some colors are darker than the others. Life will always remain strangely colorful; don’t see it as an obstacle. That may just be an illusion which doesn’t get you far. Feel deeply, and let reality come to you.

"Tail Of Us" by Unjin, a prelude to Hui Gui, an album that forms a journey into itself.

Edition V of Kizen Seasonal Mix Series to celebrate nature, seasons, and the music that accompanied us.

Kizen Records, Spring Equinox 2019 Mix by Javier Marimon

To the heart from the start. Javier Marimon has been there with us, right from the very beginning - those days that started off in Saigon, a time where we shared our passions in mutual learning and admiration. Hence, what a delight to feature this special recording of his last days in Vietnam as our seasonal Equinox mix. It marks the emotive end of an era as much as it sets an impulse for a rhythmic change. And good timing. Spring is nature's youth, a promise of brighter days. Hope you will enjoy Javier's fragrant and refreshing offering to spring.

------------------------------------
The promise of the spring is something we can feel, we see the million new colors and ideas through the Winter, and we rely on that to survive it. In my case the line between seasons it's been blurred out by my location, where a constant dense temperature, only divided by heavy warm rains, make you lose track of time and changes (and life) on the other side. After the second New Year celebration of 2019 I moved back to my original Home where an early, dry and massive Spring and a never changing loving Family has welcomed me with really open arms. This set was recorded just before the big change, and inspired by those promises, obsessions, conditions and secret fears that were popping out of my ears so heavily muted. There is some unreleased tracks, favorites by Erik Truffaz & Murcof, Ben Kaczor, Winter In June & Vâyu, Erika, Sanjib, Scientist, the Revolutionaries, Prince Far I, Our Lady the Flowers, Sutekh, cv313, sjazd, Ill Considered, Laraaji, Tristeza and some field recordings and movie samplers.
It's my pleasure to be invited by my family on Kizen for this special Equinox mix, they can really understand all this recent changes i went through as they went through exactly the same ones, always for good. Hope this Spring brings everyone the colors and tones we have being dreaming about.

Spring Equinox 2019 Mix by Javier Marimon

Winter in June & Vâyu with their first collaborative creation "Dance of The Kachinas" Being based in different places, their work originated, grew and blossomed somewhere between Cagliari and Paris. The EP includes a remix from Italian maestro Claudio PRC.

Including Digital Bonus Track - Whirling Dervishes.


Written & produced by Nicola Tinti and Maxime Mouttet between Cagliari and Paris. Remix by Claudio PRC
Artwork by Javier Marimon
Mastered by Neel at EnissLab
Released by Kizen Records (Hong Kong, 2019)
180g 12” black vinyl / limited edition of 300

Whirling Dervishes
A meditative start evolving into an energetic, yet dreamy sound. Ethereal and dazed sounds are providing the lead into an ancient universe with a solid groove to it.

Winter In June & Vâyu:
"An invitation,
listen to the rhythm of ancient spirit,
dance to the ritual of surmounting devotion,
enter the gate of wisdom and healing,
into universal mystery.
Right where we belong.”

Kizen Records:
Hong Kong in 2019 / To the heart of it all. Source of ceaseless grace,
mythologic symphony,
the gift has been danced.


The dance has been danced. Sounds of nature paired with soothing rhythms and spellbinding melodies have reached their height in a force of enchantment, not necessarily human.
With “Dance Of The Kachinas”, we are welcoming Winter In June & Vayu as our latest Kizen family members with their first collaborative creation. Being based in different places, their work originated, grew and blossomed somewhere between Cagliari and Paris. The result of their collaboration is a mysterious and profound accomplishment.
A portrait of shared spirit that may lend itself as an enlightening soundtrack for the present times of seemingly lost ancient wisdom and connection to nature. It is right in this context that we felt a sense of urgency to release this album which honours physical experience as a source of knowledge. We see it as our duty to cherish sacred myths and rituals of our ancestors to treasure our roots and recount old stories in a contemporary way. Music is one way to do so and dance as one of the most important forms of expression lets us access our deepest memories and emotions.
A release with a clear intention, yet with space for an unexpected response full of hidden possibilities both on the dance floor as well as in the listener’s own realm.
Listening adds to artistic creation and eventually alters it as any form of artistic expression gets defined by its audience. Kizen Records share and explore the possibilities that are hidden in all things of our direct environment. Our focus is to provide the space and conditions needed to bring otherwise hidden value to the surface. This is then when value is discovered, when understanding takes place, and when words are no longer needed.

Fall Equinox 2019 Mix by HRNR

HRNR is Mattia Onori, a Berlin-based sound designer for motion pictures, electronic music composer and sound artist. From his obsession for analog gear and modular synthesis come his eclectic electronics. Besides his productions featuring drone heavy panoramas, he collects and mixes different nuances of ambient and techno between a natural, organic sound and a noisy, cumbersome one.

Featuring some Lo-Fi ambient tunes I like more, as well as some deep electronic music, dub and new age stuff, mix contains music by Vaagner, Kizen Records, Abstrakce Records, Astral Industries, Lullabies For Insomniacs, Island Of The Golds Recordings, Oslated, Nonplace, Good Morning Tapes, Young Marco, Burnt Friedemann, Joseph Lawrence Clark, Loscil and more.

Edition VIII of Kizen Seasonal Mix Series to celebrate nature, seasons, and the music that accompanied us.

Winter Solstice 2019 Mix by ARIO (Astral Industries)

Astral Industries founder Ario is a practitioner of deep and inquisitive music - both as a DJ and label curator. He is known for his alchemic handling of rich organicism mixed with darker, more austere sounds. Speaking with an emotive sensitivity, there is a certain self-awareness that permeates his crafted soundscapes, which are as much drone-inspired as they are psychedelic and nature-driven.
Since 2014, the UK-based record label is probably best known for its enlightening and enchanting vinyl releases as well as brilliant artwork by Theo Ellsworth. Their sound is immersively psychedelic, yet at the same time, it is imbued with a distinctly human quality – something that was relatable yet ethereal. Their work has provided new take-ons on obscure and forgotten gems of the past that deserve artistic reinterpretation.

Winter Solstice 2019 Mix by Ario

Forest On Stasys' latest release is influenced by the minimal, tribal sound of the nineties, on the deepest, most abstract level.
'In Search Of Balance' exhibits nature's strength. The field recordings create the environment; the deep synths provide dimension and the repetitive percussive rhythms energize the drum patterns. The long and reverberated pads are reminiscent of old tribal ceremonies, simulating a mantra that resonates with the listener. A brief story told in 4 musical chapters.

Spring Equinox 2020 Mix by Unjin

"Passed a swift current,
Through echoes of the singing spirit,
We build a fire to vanish
in the deep black ocean." - Unjin

Unjin's 'Northern Atmosphere' creates an expression of a dark ethereal ambience characterized by evolving dissonant harmonies, and long sustained tone clusters. The artist combines hardware synthesis with intricate audio routing to achieve his signature sound.  Northern Atmosphere evokes a feeling of solitude, isolation and precariousness.
