We are so happy to welcome the outernational DJ-Dou @oriental-tropical based in Wiesbaden with roots in Greece and Ukraine. The name says it all!

Both are playing music and organizing events since more than two decades and since exactly one decade together. About half a decade ago Michalis and Janeck started to run regular slow down happenings as a part of "Mach Mal Langsam"-collective (@machmallangsam). The collective shares the passion to decelerated beats and relaxed grooves with a faithful and meanwhile huge audience.    

"We love music, digital, analog, live or recorded, organic or electronic, or all together...We love rhythms and riddims, operating certain with 4-to-the-floor, wouldn't mind to take a ride on 3/4, 6/8, or even 7/8-time signature. We have a pleasure to use the tempo also as an element to transport and express the emotions."

Performing on parties Oriental Tropical have seldom the opportunity to keep people on raving for a long time under 90bpm! This is exactly tempo limit of their latest mixtape created for Us from the neighboring Frankfurt.

How Slow Can You Go? Thats was the question...
Just tap, to know it precisely, something between 70 and 80bpm;)
To go slower as that is more the assignment for Michalis and his tempered by time psy-chill-dub project @schlafcola. Anyways they are strongly influenced by this sounds.

If you like a blend of deep electronica and global sounds with noticeable African impact and a pinch of acid, this one and half hour-long story is made for you. Enjoy the journey! The musical safari begins. Music is the Best Camel! This is definitely their motto...
This time let's saddle up a snail!

How Slow Can You Go #9 - Oriental Tropical

In episode ten we spice things up a little with @roman_kaschuba from Cologne's @kollektiv33 .

It is often not easy to be a musican at the countryside: urban influences spread slower and opportunities are limited. For Roman influences like Haseland Magnetschallplaten and the Anklang parties in Osnabrück were these occasions that surely had an impact on him. From there on he dedicated himself to music and music production.

After he moved south and called Cologne "home" his first digital releases followed soon, which eventually led him to Kollektiv 33. As of now Roman clearly has arrived describing his music production in the following words: "In my pieces I progress a lot of what happens around me. When something really gets to me, a new track usually comes out of it."

For this podcast Roman combines funky elements with dark disco tracks. This one hour mix varies from tempo, style and mood: New synth sounds to ebm! 
We are definitely shaking from left to right and can't wait to hear the resident of Kollektiv33 play live hopefully very soon.

How Slow Can You Go #10 - Roman Kaschuba

With @moa-musicbase we welcome our second DJ'ane for the eleventh How Slow Can You Go podcast.

When we first listend to one of her sets, we immediately fell in love with her energetic style. Her mystical sound makes it easy for the audience to be beamed in a different sphere. Trippy elements are part of a driving downtempo journey often ending up in soulful spikes.

The Hamburg local already played gigs at Beate Uwe, Waagenbau, Docks, Hamburn, Solar and organizes her own downtempo-events called "leichtfüßig" (light-footed). She also collaborates with @ShopUntitled (New York)for the UntitledCast (podcast series). 

Moå's music is inspired by extensive travel experiences in various cultural settings as well as meeting free spirits along the way. Without a doubt these occasions speak through her music!

N'Joy one hour of vibrating frequencies and clear the stage for Moå...

Our dear friend Andi aka @Shamandiii graces us with the 12th episode of How Slow Can You Go.We can hardly believe that the first season is already over. A year that was certainly special for all of us, but also brought us a lot of fantastic music from great people: Andi is without a doubt no exclusion to this. 

With gigs at Kabinett der Kuriositäten,Dreamscape,Tropen Tango Festival,Dune Festival he certainly is no stranger to the local electronic music scene.

Shamandiii plays juicy basslines in a musical diverse setting. With an additional microphone he enriches his music with loops, extraordinary noises/voices or instruments .

By involving people , Andi tries to enhance creativity for an unique musical journey to the horizon of combined potential. With this to be said the his message is clear: WE ARE ONE!

Fruiterama is hippie 30.0 / Spacemushroom

Santiago was burning when I arrived at Nomad Festival in February. Just a few days earlier I had experienced the suffering on the streets rearing up in raw force.  So how could I, as an artist and exiled Chilean, not only exist with my worries and fears at a festival, but even make them a part of it?  By accepting, living and sharing the ambiguity of the two experiences.

I firmly believe that dance floors offer a shelter, not only to forget, but also to remember.  To allow pain.  To dance it out.  Because the times we live in challenge us to deal with the paralysing despair we are facing anywhere we look.  They challenge us to confront the fear-soaked conservatism that’s taking over our world.  They challenge us to keep fighting those who despise women, who fear same-sex love and who destroy our planet. 

Today more than ever, we need each other!  May we find the strength and love to fight the battles of our time, while always carrying peace in our hearts.

Thank you Beatriz Mandarino for being a part of this with your beautiful art <3

I drove in the rain to play at my weekly Sunset Chillout.

As it was raining, i chose to play lots of Jazz at the beginning, and then as the rain cleared, I shifted to more ethnic electronic music.

Rainy Day Jazzy Chillout 9.8.2020 @Apichada Koh PhaNgan

This is one of the craziest years ever and it is just the beginning if we don't get the climate crisis under control.
We all need to do our best to save our beautiful, little planet.
It is the only one with music! 

While being in lockdown, I finally found the time to look for new music.
Deep, slow, powerful and with afro tribal vibes. I hope you love the sound as much as I do.

Much love <3

@skaruu

being you and being two
try to loose no needs

compromise, communicate
seeing what the other sees

it is work, sometimes a load
we need each other now

stick to you, stick to two
and life will take a bow

Ouïe Circle is Acid Pauli and Nico Stojan’s sublabel that provides a platform for the wider circle of friends and artists associated with Ouïe.

With the seventh release, we are treated to five exquisite tracks from a combination of Geju and Acid Pauli himself. 
Lead track Bird Box is a delight - a fidgety, elastic groove sets the tone, while esoteric sounds and textures punctuate the track to create its own little audio biosphere.

The original spans eight and half minutes, and feels almost too short. 
Also included are two remixes, both with their own individual takes on the track. Iorie’s remix straightens up the groove somewhat, becoming a serious midtempo chugger with beautifully realized arpeggiated synths and a bubbling, magical atmosphere. 
Ed Ed (who also appeared previously on Ouïe Circle 03) goes for more of a tropical workout - shuffling drums underpin a thick bass and lush, dreamy pads.

Elsewhere on this release, Geju offers up two new tracks. Monko is a low slung slo mo groove, that mixes infectious percussion with pulsing synth tones and ethereal leads. Anosino also mixes the worlds of sampled nature sounds with heavy kicks and a slinky, unpredictable arrangement - traversing the worlds of electronic and chill out music.

Good morning from home and dancing under the sounds of the organic-minimal vibes. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. #makeithappen

Good Morning From Home - Napo Lugo

A very warm welcome to 2021. We all hope that this year will again be marked by community,culture and creative exchange. It seems that it is just a faded memory from a time long past. So we wish for nothing more than to colour this memory by dancing together: Live & Authentic  ❤️

This time the patient waiting will be sweetened by @chu-chi-gong . The DJ'ane from Frankfurt is a part of Kollektiv Schöne Töne (@schoene_toene)and already played gigs at Kabinett der Kuriositäten, Tropen Tango Festival and Cassiopeia.

Telling stories musically her style is slow, deep and emotional along with  a broad variety of influences: Ethno, folklore & Medicine-Music to name just a few.

Chuchi wants to overcome boundaries with love, music and spirituality. Her intention is to touch the deepest feelings of people opening up the safe space for the listener to set them free.

So feel free to be inspired by Chuchi's sound, open up your sacred space and let her music carrie you away!

U're Loosing Your Mind

In 2019, we founded the "Hand aufs Herz Kollektiv" with the vision to build a local platform for creative exchange. 
Whether musical,cultural or artistic we want to give everyone a stage to present themselves and their work. The cornerstones of our work are sustainability, regionalism and community.
The Electronic Brunch is the first project of our young collective. 

In 2019 haben wir das Hand aufs Herz Kollektiv gegründet mit dem Ziel, eine lokale Plattform für kreativen Austausch zu schaffen.
