Chrysalism 009 comes from an old friend aka.zato, and is inspired by a quiet nostalgia for past nights spent dancing & winding down in living rooms. It listens much like a mix tape, which is its intention. Opening with a field recording taken from outside his house, the mix moves intuitively & electively - balearic in places, flecked with ambient textures and moving towards guitar driven downtempo. Suitable for the first Chrysalism of summer, it’s a warm, meandering listen: a memory in motion that, like a summer storm, is a journey to watch unfold.

Chrysalism 010 opens with a warning - an eerie excerpt from Take Shelter, where dreams of acid rain and collapse blur the line between prophecy and breakdown. That tension pulses throughout this contribution: a blend of discordant and transcendent sounds that mirrors the emotional whiplash of living (and scrolling) in the now.

Inspired by the acid rain crisis of the 70s–80s, and its rare flicker of regulatory change, this mix holds both scepticism and hope. There are moments of chaos, flashes of beauty, and a deep need to integrate the extremes. One highlight - an unlikely but seamless merging of Bulgarian choral tradition with Ellen Renton’s soaring spoken word - serves as a reminder that unexpected harmony is still possible.

Moved by low-end frequencies from an early age, Seb H. (@sebcantmix) hunts for records that carry the hallmarks of dub and soundsystem culture. UK-born, Netherlands-based, he releases his debut EP, ‘untitled’, earlier this year on London-label kinetic. Available both digitally and on vinyl, it combines rolling sub-bass with introspective textures and dancefloor rooted rhythms.

About the mix: “I have three turntables at home now and I've been really enjoying digging for more ambient/abstract/experimental records to make layered collages of sound. So I wanted the mix to start there, then a friend sent me some unreleased tracks he'd made recently and straight away I knew I wanted to include them, which gave me a destination to aim for. Then it was just a matter of finding a route from A to B.”

Gillan’s contribution to Chrysalism is a gentle invitation into grounded listening. Opening with organic, rooted selections, the mix holds a softness that cushions its raw edges. Drums form the backbone throughout - at once guiding, centring, and releasing.

Over its course, ambient textures weave with touches of jazz, dub, and ritualistic percussion. The closing shift towards the electronic and ethereal feels like a natural release: a step out from the ritual grove into a lighter, more open space. It’s a journey that highlights Gillan’s ability to move fluidly across genres, while maintaining a deep sense of cohesion.

Our tenth installment of the podcast was an unforeseen and unplanned one. Often, the unforeseen, unexpected, and unplanned are unsettling, but in this case, they brought an unbelievable musical journey. We want to welcome Manfredas from our 10th installment. A bespoke selector with a musical knowledge that would fill several musical libraries, he kindly extended his Saigonese soiree and filled our Sunday session with great joy. Expect a mix that meanders, accelerates, and wanes, all over the course of 90 minutes. An unimaginable journey between genres, tempos, musical styles, and directions, showcasing the versatility of Manfredas.
