Things have been pretty dark around here.
accomplice is here to lighten your mood.
Only positive vibes in The Cave.

⸻

The Cave 005 is a slow rise toward the glow—ambient frequencies, downtempo meditations, and gentle grooves selected to hold space for healing, movement, and lightness.

Where previous entries invited shadow work and release, this one offers reconnection. Resilience. Radiance. A sonic ceremony for shaking off the dust and remembering the warmth in your chest.

For:
☀️ Grounding, recharging, and recalibrating
🌍 Quiet mornings or late-night unravellings
🌀 Movement practices with no pressure
🎙️ Head-nodding meditation + surprise spoken word gems

Featuring:
Efdemin, Thievery Corporation, Perera Elsewhere, Rocket Empire, Guti, Catz ’N Dogz, DJ Mellow J, Frank & Tony, Afrobeat textures, dub house pulses, and even a little wisdom from Ana Kasparian.

Genres flow like water:
Ambient, chillstep, experimental IDM, Afro-psychedelic, spoken word, positive electronica

🎛️ Mixed live by accomplice

💫 Return to it. Tend the fire. Let it warm you.

The Cave 005 | Ambient | Chill Out | Downtempo | IDM | Afrobeat | Spoken Word | Meditation

Antaares is a young musician and Live-act from Mexico-City.  Despite his young age, he is already a big reference in the Mexican downtempo scene.
But he has also made a name for himself in Europe and played at festivals such as Fusion in Germany.   Ataraxia is the first single of his upcoming EP on Amselcom, which will include remixes by Ninze and O/Y as well. 
This song was already on a wave of hype during the turn of the year and got support by DJs like Mira Kater, Seth Schwarz & Acid Pauli. The elegance of deep dub sounds are garnished with melancholy brass melodies that seem like fragments of distant memories.

Written by @Antaares in CDMX.

Skee Mask @ The Lot Radio 05-20-2024

Munich meets Miami in a B2B that's a dream come true. A perfect brew of DnB, hip hop, techno, ambient, and bouncy mesh brings together two of the scene's most innovative forces. Skee Mask, the master of acoustic manipulation and dark atmospheric textures, teams up with childhood friends duo INVT, with their hypnotic, trippy Latin-scented audioscapes and intricate drum programming. An immaculate blend of INVT's gritty rhythms and Skee Mask's otherworldly sonic engineering.

Spring is Breaking

Get a little bit grimey with Tim and Jackson! Great for cooking aggressive foods, hitting inanimate objects (consensually!), and getting your sweat on and on and on and on. Sounds like: Bushwick.
