The Album >

Conceived by in the cultural cellars of Bangkok, Thailand, and Geneva, Switzerland, this 9-track LP casts a wide net over experimental meditative ambient music, progressive drone, Brahmanic accents, and ritual oscillations.

This work represents a 20 years journey in Geneva of musical production, artistic expression, and the melting pot of experiences fused with the rich legacy of Indian spiritual sounds.

The LP is partly a collaboration between five close collaborators, each contributing a single sound to complete this multicultural jigsaw, partly comprised of field recordings of Bopa musicians from Rajasthan in northern India. Added to the confluence are intricate layers of electric bass and electronic vibrations.

The name derives from ancient Sanskrit words emblematic of the overarching sound. Yantra stands for mystical diagrams found in the Tantric traditions of the Indus Valley. These diagrams are used to worship dieties at home or in temples, as a meditation aid, and to activate the various benefits and occult powers as defined by Hindu astrological and Tantric texts. Mandir stands for a place in which a still mind and soul float freely search of life, peace, joy, and comfort. For centuries, it has remained the nexus of a community where people forget their differences and voluntarily unite.

Presented on a double gatefold and limited to 200 copies, “Garden of Reality” is the musical meeting point between Europe, Southeast Asia, and India — and everything in between from past, present, and future.

The Artist >

Record collector, musician, graphic designer and East Asian music connoisseur, The Dude of Stratosphear a.k.a. Jerom El Duderino was born in the beginning of the 70's with a father DJ in disco clubs. Raised in the alternative scene of the very international city of Geneva Switzerland, he started playing bass at the age of 11, and spinning various old Punk/Funk/Rock/Reggae in squats all along the 90's. Bass player in bands such as Knut (CH), Half Japanese (USA), Imericani (SP/IT/CH), Bionic (CA), he is now working with the experimental-kraut band Bliscappen Van Maria, and on his tantric bass solo project Yantra Mandir.

The Dude has been collecting vinyls and DJing for more than 25 years; Resident DJ in various venues in Geneva such as the Madone Bar, Shark, L'Etage and promoter at Zoo-Usine, where he focused on art performance and experimental music.
After many trips to India and South East Asia, the Dude has moved to the electric city of Bangkok in 2013. Always in search of new sounds, he has sharpened his globe-spanning mix with groovy far eastern psychedelic music and with largely unheard gems from across the musical spectrum. 

In the past couple of years, The Dude of Stratosphear has been seen spinning his dusty wax at NIGHT WAX (Osaka-Japan), CAMA ATK (Hanoi-Vietnam), La Fenêtre Soleil (Saigon-Vietnam), Metahouse (Phnom Penh-Cambodia), Mondo Bizarro (Jakarta-Indonesia) Wonderfruit Festival (Pattaya-Thailand), A.B.R. Festival (Cyprus), Golden Pudel (Hamburg-Germany), Monarch (Berlin-Gemany), Gonzo Club (Zurich-Switzerland), and many many…many more!

He has shared the booth with various artists such as Dj Format (Project Blue Book), Doug Shipton (Finders Keepers), Chris Menist & Maft Sai (Zudrangma-Paradise Bangkok), Masa Niwayama (Zudrangma-Giant Swing), Tom Weinland (7 Samourai), Booty Carrell (B-Music-Golden Pudel), Vikram Sohonie (Analog Africa), Vicente Fabuel (Vampi Soul), DJ Marrrtin (Stereophonk),  Unicon Sci, Breakestra, Monophonics, Run DMC, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, to only name a few.

Nils Frahm - Says

Album: Relax meditation 

Like swans, drinking only pure nectar of blossoming lotus, the liberated souls drink only from the spring of transcendental love. Mantra meditation is the door to another world, the world of pure love, harmony and true happiness. This world is not a geographical place, it’s a state of consciousness. No need to try to get there by your own strength, you can travel on a safe ship of ancient mantras.

This session is designed to elevate you and open your mind to infinity. With proper 4-4 breathing it becomes easy to silence the mind and go beyond it's perceived limitations. Opening the crown chakra is a great way to meditate and liberate yourself from the physical world. It makes you feel blissful and stress-free inside where you can explore the depths of your own consciousness.

This Binaural + Isochronic Session is a powerful relaxation and grounding entrainment. It will relax you deeply, bring you down to earth, and revitalize your energy - important for people who's jobs involve a lot of thinking. It also contains solfeggio frequency 396hz for "Liberating Guilt and Fear". It is in the Low-Alpha 8hz range which is linked to the root chakra, along with 396hz and 99hz. The Isochronics are set to 285hz which associates with "Quantum Re-membering" and the Earth Star. So enjoy this free session! :D

Headphones will have greatest effect, but are not required.

Instructions: 

1) Sit in a chair with your back upright, feet planted on the ground, put on your headphones.

2) Focus all your attention on the sounds as they will bring you into the Alpha brainwave state for peace and relaxation, feel your body from the inside out.

3) Breath deeply all the way down to the base of your spine, and try to keep your attention in that area, you may visualize a red glowing orb there if you'd like.

I wish you a wonderful journey and please subscribe if you enjoyed the video.

Deep Sleep, Calming, Relaxing and Soothing Music (Subscribe us on YouTube)

This vinyl EP is a collaboration between Paris label CORRESPONDANT and Germany's GOMMA records. 
Remixes by Los Angeles' finest psychedelic electronic producer SECRET CIRCUIT (Beats in Space records) and German shooting star LAUER (partner of Gerd Janson of Tuff City Kids).

Why this EP? 

Gomma has a long history with the Paris scene. Mathias 'Munk' Modica who runs Gomma (and sublabel Toy Tonics) has been living in France for many years. He worked with many parisian artists from DJ Chloe (on Munk's first album „Aperitivo“ 2004) to the Ed Banger Crew or Black Strobe. Probably apart of Berlin there is no city in the world that saw more Gomma events than Paris. Seems only a project with Jennifer Cardini missed. So Jennifer invited Mathias last year to send over tracks. Decision was made fast. And so „Wurlitzer Wank“ and The „Bösus Bounce“ came out on Correspondant.

The other 2 tracks will come out on Gomma digitally later this year. For now: vinyl only. 

The music: You can somehow call it influenced by psychedelic ideas and the 1990ies Detroit electro funk sound of labels like red planet or Gladio. Analogue instruments, funk loops made on a MPC and weird, sick synthesizer melodies. Reminds of the early Munk productions that had no vocals.

Munk - The Oboe Onyx

HORSE MEAT DISCO are steady supporters of Gomma since a long time. The 100% Gomma series invites friends of the label to do a own selection of the Gomma catalogue. In form of a DJ MIX and a compilation. Caused to the great spectrum of music that has been released on Gomma and sublabel Toy Tonics every mix creates a complete different perspective on the German label's catalogue.

The last mix (2013) came courtesy of JACQUES RENAULT. He created a cosmic- Balearic selection. His compilation has been no.1 of JUNO Download house albums charts for six weeks. The new one by SEVERINO -  worldwide respected Italian super selector  and main music man of Horse Meat Disco used some of the more energetic tracks of the catalogue: Luke Solomon, Morgan Geist, DJ Kaos, Dimitri From Paris & DJ Rocca, Munk, Hess Is More, and many more

A great mix. With a lot of new tracks but also 40% stuff from before 3 years - that still sound fresh.

Severino is almost a legend. A DJ's DJ - with a big worldwide fanbase. The superfriendly and über-expert dude from The Horse Meat Disco crew.

Originally from Mantua, Italy he came to London in the 1990ies starting to run the Happy Families partys  in Shoreditch with ex-Jockey Slut editor Rob Wood, Michael Morley and Mark James. Later residency at Fabric. Later the Horse Meat Disco crew caught wind of Severino's unsurpassed vinyl knowledge making him a resident DJ and an essential member of the HMD quartet. 

Severino is trusted and loved by lovers of real housemusic all around the world. He has remixed artists such as Roisin Murphy, Basement Jaxx, Billie Ray Martin, Alison Moyet, Tracey Thorn, and Yoko Ono, as well as recent collaborations with Acid House legend Terry Farley. He has complied various albums including Classic’s Through The Eyes Of Severino and the Horse Meat Disco series out on Strut/K7!

The last two Munk releases (on Correspondant and Local Talk) already showed the new side of Mathias Modica's musical output.
Instrumental, hypnotic, yet funky and tribal mid tempo tracks with almost no vocals. 
Now Mr. Munk takes it a few steps further. He is flying his Techno into a Sun Ra Space. „The Bolero Bunuel“ is based on a jazzfunk bassline and some live drumming. The melodies remind of some strange arabian sci-fi things. „The Naked Baam“ reminds of the first Motorbass tracks, back from Paris 1995. Filterfunk! „The Oboe Onyx“ - Boards of Canada could have been somewhere in the studio when this was made. The beat is weird... not quantized. The classical instruments and melodic lines remind of some compositions of late Ligeti or P‰rt. This new Munk EP comes out with Remixes from LAUER and RED AXES.

Munk - The Bolero Bunuel (Red Axes Remix)

In the first week of September we're heading to the beautiful scenery of Tisno, Croatia, to celebrate the first edition of Dekmantel Selectors. In the run up to the festival, we’ve launched a new temporary podcast-series where we invite ten of our selectors from the festival to dig deep in their unique collections. The idea behind the mix is to create a Time Document, focusing on a specific period of time with the artist being free in choosing this period. This period could in fact entail anything: a certain decennia, the time he or she fell in love, The Cold War, November ’92 – March ’93, or the rise of Nigerian music. It’s up to the Selectors to choose and tell us a story based on their music collection.

Selectors is definitely what these two men are. Eaglemen, consisting of Sander en Sasa, are masters in collecting the records that will most likely make everyone jealous. Whilst traveling the world to dig in all dusty crates and corners, they create a tropical oases within their dj-sets. Listen to one of their mixes and you will win a free (auditory) trip to a place likely to be warmer than where you are right now. This is why their broad selection of records will blend in perfectly in Tisno.

Their laid back Selectors Time Document is inspired by their very first shows at Red Light Radio. "The music within this mix has no specific genre, it’s a true pot of tracks we like to listen to. It consists of a lot of skits, voices, quotes and soundbites from all kind of things we found on the internet. When we first started our radio shows at Red Light Radio, Palo Santo played his music from iTunes and twisted it with effects through a 404 sampler. Sasa used to bring a big computer screen into the radio studio, as he only had Ableton on his laptop which had screen damage to play the skits over the music. It was a fun to see how these sets turned out."

Another inspiration for the mix was Palo Santo's side project with two friends, called YujYou. "YujYou did a lot of skits, music concrete and jazz, and they’ve made a total 29 mixes. These included loads of obscure jazz and literary music with a lot of music bites and interviews about LSD trips, comedy and such. Palo's part within this mix is also inspired by those days."
