Millia @ Smartbar (8.11.22)

Joseph Kamaru, aka KMRU (@kamarujoseph), is a sound artist and experimental ambient musician, raised in Nairobi, Kenya, and currently based in Berlin. Recent years have seen KMRU find a place amongst the most stirring voices within the experimental music space, courtesy of his distinctive usage and combination of field recordings, noise, ambient textures and expansive hypnotic drones. 
A luminous presence within the scene, KMRU has garnered critical acclaim not only for releases on the likes of @warp-records, @editionsmego and @subtext-recordings, but also for his live performances, which have seen him take the stage at high-profile events across Europe and the globe.

KMRU’s Patterns of Perception 105 is a poised and evocative passage which floats gracefully between delicate instrumentation, melodic phrasing and abstract ambient textures. Sparked by recent inspirations and experiences, this indelible set embraces peace, stillness and vibrance in equal measure, coming together as a carefully divined tapestry - meditative and shimmering.

Patterns of Perception 105 - KMRU

I turned 30 the 09/09/22 and was heading to one of the best summer gathering, Sarcus Festival.
I played the day after surrounded by many friends & artists I like. 

I prepared this set for almost 2 months because I wanted it to be like a retrospective of the path I walked in electronic music during the past 13 years. 
I tried to include as much tracks of the different styles I grew up with with the things I discovered at that time that I really felt like playing at a 6-9pm slot.
A couple of months after the festival, the file I was sent was corrupted, with just a little click at the beginning. One of my USB sticks was near the end so the history folder was messy and I tried to remember my set as I played it. Since I prepared almost 75% of it, it was quite easy.

I recorded it nearly 6 months after this moment on a sunny morning, and I'm happy to finally sharing it with the world.

You'll find in here loads of lazers, zaps, wizzes, noises and probably an unreasonable use of DJM's dub echo.

Big shout out to the Sarcus Team and to all people who made this journey go the way it went.

The Sizeable Mix Vol. 10: Harold (Steeplejack)

Known for his trusted label Die Orakel, programming the dancefloor at Offenbach institution Robert Johnson and heading up EOS radio, Oliver Hafenbauer is no stranger to the game. 

For the latest instalment of Off-Kilter, he presents us with an uncompromising mix that spans a multitude of genres; dance music influenced but sitting on the fringes, woven intricately together - dark and suspenseful yet light and hypnotic. Downtempo, house, techno, cosmic and unruly, spiralling sounds and cycles of rhythm overlapping and phasing in time.

Oliver Hafenbauer is an experienced and versatile DJ with a long-standing history of being one of the key figures in the local club scene and beyond. 

Stylistically motivated to what is beat-driven and highly danceable, he has the perfect sensitivity for the contexts he is involved with. Oliver set his priorities differently a while ago when he hung up a potential career in architecture and decided to go for the music after having DJed for years and promoted his party series. Oliver’s steady commitment to Offenbach’s vastly respected venue has brought him wide recognition: For over a decade, he functioned as music director of Robert Johnson and managed the associated label of the same name. Working behind the scenes allows not only different perspectives but enables many alliances. Rather than producing as a strategy, he consequently fosters talent on his imprint Die Orakel, where he releases music positively undetermined between dance and ambient by artists like upsammy, Reptant, or Roman Flügel. 

Oliver has been co-founder of the Frankfurt-based online radio station EOS Radio since 2021. Last but not least, his approach to playing music as a conceptual act within diverse networks of artists and audiences is what makes of him an allrounder of many qualities.

SKIN Podcast Series #015 Clarence Rise 

Starting this year music exploration with a podcast by mastermind Clarence Rise, exploring subgenres of hypnotic techno and deep DnB. @clarencerise: 'For this particular podcast, I've chosen to take as many tracks as possible that are both hypnotic and very percussive, while using a fast, suffocating rhythmic progression. Like a wild hunt in the woods, it's up to the listener to decide whether to be the hunter or the hunted.' 

Over the years, French producer Clarence Rise has developed a strong, intense, and singular musical identity, where incisive techno blends with chilling atmospheres. Some describe his work as Cinematic or Cold Techno, emphasizing complex rhythms, dark sound design, and contemplative melancholy.

(ENG) Born in Córdoba and embraced by Málaga (south of Spain), Marian is a DJ and vinyl lover whose passion for electronic music shines through in every set she delivers. From her childhood, when she collected cassette tapes and explored a wide variety of genres, Marian has been deeply immersed in the world of music. Her first serious encounter with electronic and underground music came during the renowned Andalusian Breakbeat scene of the 2000s, a period that sparked an insatiable curiosity in her and led her to travel across Europe, attending festivals and clubs, all of which helped shape her artistic identity.



Since she first took to the decks in 2019, she has tirelessly played at some of the finest beach clubs along the Andalusian coast. Her early days were marked by a residency at Sonora Beach in Estepona, a pivotal stage where she demonstrated her ability to connect with audiences and deliver truly memorable musical experiences. Moreover, she has solidified her presence in the electronic scene by participating in prestigious events such as Electrolunch in Seville and Sun and Snow Festival in Granada, and has left her mark in iconic venues such as Studio Club in Málaga, Sala Malandar and Sala X in Seville, and Moonback Club in Granada, among others.

With a chameleonic musical style, Marian offers eclectic sets that resonate with audiences across generations, thanks to her festive energy and unmistakable groove. Her repertoire spans from Funk, Soul, Disco, House, and Deep in its warmest and most hedonistic form, to rave and nighttime sounds like UK House, Breaks, Acid, Electro, Hardcore, Techno, and IDM, evoking her southern adolescence.

Marian stands out not only for her technical skills but also for her ability to craft a sonic narrative that transcends eras and styles. Her approach to electronic music continues to redefine the genre, blending old-school influences while staying at the cutting edge, setting new standards with every performance.

Su repertorio abarca desde Funk, Soul, Disco, House, Deep en su faceta más cálida y hedonista, hasta sonidos raveros y nocturnos como UK House, Breaks, Acid, Electro, Hardcore, Techno e IDM que evocan a su adolescencia sureña

Marian no solo destaca por su habilidad técnica, sino también por su capacidad para construir una narrativa sonora que trasciende épocas y estilos. Su enfoque en la música electrónica sigue redefiniendo el sonido del género, con influencias de la vieja escuela pero a la vez manteniéndola a la vanguardia y estableciendo nuevos estándares en cada actuación
