Hope And Passion Guestmixes 2012 - 2022

mixes

The mixtape Berlin-based songwriter https://soundcloud.com/lucykruger exclusively complied for NOTHING BUT HOPE AND PASSION, like her latest album "Transit Tapes" , lives in the paradoxical state of intimacy and alienation that we find with strangers on the train. All going in the same direction, but how often do we break the silence? As if there were some common agreements amongst strangers to remain exactly that. Yet, for the duration of the ride we inhabit a shared space. On her record, Lucy examines those spaces, the in-betweens and the almost, the melancholia and promises that transit holds. Not really a search, but an ache for something else we hope to find even if it is just by moving the couch from one place to another.

Lead track from the Revelation EP to be released September 23rd.

Revelation

set 0819

"Ever since I was a child music has been a sacred space for me to dream inside of," says Adam Miller and his recently released solo debut "Gateway" underlines that with haunting meditative sounds. . His distinctive cinematic, neo-psychedelic wave guitar play we've all come to love from his work with Chromatics is still the heart of his sound but by being freed from conventional structures it allows the artist do dive deeper into the actual sound and its dream-like state. "Gateway" is an ambient album designed with and for guitars and that's something you don't see that often these days.

For NBHAP he compiled an exclusive mixtape that works like a companion piece to the whole "Gateway" concept and it's a joyful ride. About it Miller says: "Each song in my mix is its own little world to me, and each song here creates that space for me to dream. Some of these songs have been standbys for the majority of my life. Others have entered into my awareness only more recently."

Took a bit of a break from demos and releases after extending the family with a cute little boy, but now we’re back with some of the best deep techno and house lined up for you! But first, something completely different.
Michele Mininni hails from the south of Italy and counts everything from post- and krautrock over new wave, house and disco amongst his influences. He’s been a DJ for years, but only recently released his debut EP on Optimo Trax in Glasgow. He immediately found himself on the playlists of Beats In Space and Rinse FM. We were literally blown away when he sent us his music and didn’t hesitate to release it although it’s not what you’re used to hear from us. It’s hard to describe ‘Endless Ceremony’. Epic, but not as you know it. Cosmic, definitely.
For the remix we thought of Rocketnumbernine. Two brothers with releases on Soul Jazz, Four Tet’s Text label and more recently an album on Smalltown Supersound. Currently touring with James Holden and  Neneh Cherry. Their remix could be described as almost dreamy electronica/idm.
We think this is a really special release. The following people already agree: Gavin Russom, Âme, Ripperton, A Made Up Sound, James Holden, Optimo, Deadbeat, Tim Sweeney, Locked Groove… First pressing on coloured vinyl!

It was such a great honor to have the chance to perform live at Maxa and Mayan Warrior event. The lights, the lazers, all the art installations were amazing. I didn't realize when I was playing on the car but when i saw the videos from the audience I was blown away. It was magical. Mexico is magical <3

Thanks to our brothers of @mayanwarrior for the collaboration
