For his two-hour set at Lost Music Festival 2023, DJ Python kept the mood steamy and the energy high throughout. 

Showcasing the Brooklyn-based artist’s playful approach, the mix journeys through slinking R&B and dub into more frenetic, percussive club cuts along with a particular standout – and warranted wheel-up of – an Andrea Bocelli baile funk blend and a Blu Cantrell edit. Exactly the kind of heat we need right now.

Live from Lost Music Festival: DJ Python

Sweet Abyss resident Kiernan Laveaux takes us on a journey through realms of shoegaze and bisexual lighting, inspired by music from her weird life and the work of famously bisexual shoegaze fan Gregg Araki - partly inspired by mixes from naemi/exael and Ricky Mawzlin of Jellyfish.

"An ode to the noisy underground aka noise tantra…" — Nkisi (@nkisi)

"They are sculptures from the Congo kingdom," says Melika Ngombe Kolongo, describing the origin of her artist name, Nkisi. "They’re from pre-colonial times, for ritual practices — a way to communicate with the ancestors. It’s like a human figurine with all these nails in its body."

Nkisi aka Me Li Ka , is one of the most prominent experimental sound artists/producers today. Born in Congo and now based in London, she blends a unique African cosmology with radical Hardcore, Gabber, and African tribal rhythms, combining brain-massaging IDM with explosive Juke rhythms to create innovative hybrids that embody the infinite resilience of electronic music. Her work has appeared on labels such as Warp's Arcola, which focuses on club music, and Lee Gamble's UIQ, producing work that transcends genre labels. Last month, she released a new EP, The Altar, decoding and recoding ancestral forms of rhythm and melody, emerges as an invisible sonic architecture, a temporary temple.


Her exploration of electronic music began with photography. Dissatisfied with the visually-driven society and its inherent stereotypes, she sought a different form of expression—one rooted in emotion and experience. She says, "Through cross-rhythms and rhythms that induce altered states of consciousness, the dance floor becomes a singularity for collective communication and a higher-dimensional connection with sound and environment." In 2015, NKISI also co-founded the experimental label NON WORLDWIDE, providing a platform for African and diaspora musicians.

what we find episode 4 featuring @soriareilly - moving through spaces of memory and place using vocals, ambience, and rich instrumentation, Soria shares sonic landscapes falling deep in textures and hazed thoughts.

The melodies glisten and the reverb swells like moving tides. Soria's music and personal mixes glide on droning planes of sounds with hints of stirring spoken word and samples drawing listeners in to seek intimate interpretations of the sensory worlds enveloping them.

An approach that dives back through the worn threads of one's mind and surfaces on impressions of present spheres, as observed online for series like Fake Rolex, PVAS, and Radiant Records.

For this mix, Soria shares dark & glam electro-acoustic, drone, and ambient mixed for a summer thunderstorm or a bad mood.

Music from Zarya, James Tenney, Richie Culver, Jon Watts, Full Bloom, and more.

010 Kiri: Rain on Me

Enter the mythology of NYC artist James K - her sound, equally organic and electronic, is a combination of odd dreams, hybridizing enchanted samples, ripped, broken and morphed rhythms, and vocals, both incomprehensible and appealing.

For vol. 22, the amazing Hannah D has put together a beautiful mix of spacey, melodic broken beat, house and other delights, including heaps of unreleased tracks from friends and her forward-thinking label @thespacebetweenus. Hannah is a recent arrival from Meanjin/Brisbane and an excellent addition to our local scene. We can't wait to see her in action as we enter the renaissance of dancefloors.
