Hekske (https://soundcloud.com/the-house-witchtapes) presents „I have a Mriya“ Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 242

Unsere Nr. 242 kommt heute von einer besonderen belgischen Künstlerin und Kuratorin, die für ihren ausgesprochen, guten Musikgeschmack und der Liebe zum Detail bekannt ist.  
Die Rede ist von Hekske, welche der internationalen Downtempo und House Szene ein Begriff ist. Mit ihrer Reihe Hekske ❋ The Magic Witchtapes (https://soundcloud.com/hekske) erreichte sie in einem wahnsinng schnellen Tempo eine unglaublich treue Hörerschaft. Egal ob Künstler oder Tänzer. Jeder war sofort von dieser besonderen, nämlich storytellenden Reihe angetan. Die Texte sind exakt auf den Künstler und deren Musik abgestimmt, verknüpfen dabei immer wieder geschickt die Episoden miteinander. Man merkte von Anfang an, dass ihr an dem Podcastprojekt sehr viel liegt. Und dies bestätigt sie nun schon seit fast 5 Jahren mit anhaltend hoher Qualität. 

Nach drei Jahren des Kuratierens entschied sie sich dann selber hinter ihrem Projekt hervorzutreten, um ihre eigenen Geschichten musikalisch zu erzählen. So auch in unserer neusten Ausgabe…aber dazu später mehr. 

Ihr aufgenommenes Set wartet mit einer gewissen Melancholie und gehörigen Portion an Deepness auf. Nach ihrem gewohnt samtweichen Intro, macht sie recht schnell klar wohin die Reise geht. Nämlich auf den Dancefloor. Die Klänge sind drückend, hypnotisch und mit einer Menge an groovigem Bass angereichert, wie zum Beispiel der fabelhafte Track https://soundcloud.com/katahaifisch/premiere-atric-frida-darko-low-battery-temple-tears-remix. Hin und wieder blinzelt aber auch die Sonne in Form von organischen Elementen, wie Bongotrommeln, durch. Angereichert wird das Ganze fortan mit sphärischen Passagen, die nun auch zum Träumen und Verweilen in dem Gemütszustand vollkommener, innerer Ruhe einladen. Eine spannende Mischung. Diesem beschriebenen Stil bleibt sie fortan bis zum Ende treu und schafft mit ihren zwei letzten Tracks den berühmt, berüchtigten Bogen zu ihrem Intro Track zu schließen. Inklusive einer Live-Aufnahme vom letzten Flug der Mriya. 

Zurück bleibt ein kaum beschreibbares Gefühl von positiver Trauer. Positiv, weil sie mit ihrer Musikauswahl zugleich eine Aufbruchstimmung transportiert, das Schlimme vergessen machen zu wollen. Schließlich sollte jeder von uns eine Mriya im Herzen haben…
Die Zerstörung der letzten Mriya (An-225 Mriya) während des russischen Angriffskrieges vom 24.bis zum 25.02.2022 im Kampf um den Antonov Flughafen, steht so die Vermutung, symbolisch für die Tragödie des Krieges und dem Verlust, den so viele Menschen erlitten haben… Aber auch für den Glauben daran, das Positive und die Zuversicht nicht zu verlieren. Etwas was in der heutigen Zeit, mehr denn je von besonderer Wichtigkeit ist.

Wir danken dir vielmals Hekske für dieses besondere Set. Umwerfend, tiefenergreifend und erfrischend gut. Bitte bleibe deiner Linie treu. Chapeu.

Hekske presents „I have a Mriya“ Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 242

Through the night and our thoughts
Reaching me, caught in stone
Speak your name through the light
Plead for me, colorblind

Hold it all in your body
Hold it all in your mind
Say it all in your silence here
Say it all in your truth tonight

Hello wdlnds.collective
Hello MADmoiselle.
Hello mellow.

narfux [at] Beate Uwe [ LIVE-SPECIAL ]

Recording date: 6.11.22
Venue: Beate Uwe

https://soundcloud.com/narfux is joining our LIVE-SPECIAL series (https://soundcloud.com/afterhour-sounds/sets/live-special) straight from the fabolous berlin based club https://soundcloud.com/beateuwe. Enjoy the recording.

• What are your musical influences? What is your musical background?

I dont "come" from a musical background, in my child hood music wasn't a very present aspect in my life and now it is what I dedicate my moments to. Sound is what interests me, the daily life sound, the sounds that hold invitations to deepen your moments, the sounds that make my inner and outer world move with curiosity, sounds for the deep listener. 

Opening Traktor for the first time in 2019 when in hospital with help from a dear beloved, I was made aware on such a deep level the ability of healing which comes from outworldy expresion through sound. From that point on the rabbit hole of wonder continues.

 

• What makes good "afterhour"?

A good afterhour for me are the moments of deep surrender, filled with Gratitude for the present. Being surrounded by and experiencing it with loving beings in softness, cheekiness and love. Lets pour some tea and listen to some melting ambient together, or lay in the sun listening to the wind in the trees, lets laugh and celebrate eachother. 

 • Do you have any thoughts you would like to share about your set?

I had the impulse to play the same track at the start and at the end, to hold the journey with the message of Love. This for me, is what I wish to convey in all my musical journeys. 

 
• What was your experience of the set you recorded?

Beate Uwe is one of my beloved home bases, so playing here is always a heart expansion. Watching the bodies flowing and moving on all different levels was and is such a joy, I was in awe at the beauty of it all. It is such an honour to play for you and to share this experience together. The last track moment has imprinted on me, an invitation into stillness it was beautiful to witness the embraces of self and others.

It is early morning, after a great @dualism -and a super long hypnotic @g-e-j-u set- at wonderful @lushplay in Zürich, when their effects still echoes through the mixer and their vibe still mesmerizing dancers in the morning dust, zijn had the special pleasure to catch up the vibe and play the energy to an interstellar journey and back down to earth :) ... 🪐
It was a crazy night to play and to have such lovely people brought together in one place through music & emotions is magic 💜

Ketamine Sunrise NYE 2025 @ Das Queendom, Berlin

I am very glad to share with you the recording of my set last Sunday at Beate Barfuß. 

This set is brings you to the twists and turns of slower music, navigating between 108 and 122 bpm, with some of my favourite releases of the past months but also some older school timeless classics. 
 
No banger on the carpets, only softer and comfortable music.

This place, and particularly their Sunday events have been a big inspiration for me since I moved to Berlin almost 10 years ago, and an important place for the slower scene in Berlin.  
A unique place and crowd of true music lovers. 

Thank you so much everyone who joined <3 
It was the perfect way to start 2025 with you. 

 




**Recorded on Jan 19 in Beate Uwe - Berlin

Recorder turned off for the last 30 minutes :/
