United In Flames w/ Airflo & Malibu 230222

The track is meant to awaken those still sleeping on global warming and other ecological catastrophes. The first part resembles times before humans interfered with Nature. The second part takes the listener to the era of the Anthropocene. Most of the layers of the song are made out of my voice - its samples and waveform.

"Never let them know your next move" — it might as well be the motto of Maria Paskevic, the composer, DJ, and curator behind the Attention series. Her DJ sets are always full of surprises, jumping from one vibe to the next, and they never fail to bring the fun. In her latest mix, she digs deep into her roots, blending 90s acid, 2000s trance, and a splash of modern leftfield sounds, creating a sound that feels both fresh and familiar.

Lizdas Waves #9: Maria Paskevic

Welcome to Rave Academia 🎓 I’ve always felt very drawn to the energy and unpredictability of the early 90s, when electronic music embraced fusion of various genres. This, combined with my background as a composer, shaped the way I treat mixing - I love long blends, unexpected mood shifts, and strive to create a polystylistic yet unified piece. I’ll continue to develop this approach in the following episodes.

From @ssssofiiiii 's new EP "I want this feeling to last forever"

Stream & download:  https://push.fm/fl/iwtftlfep

Emerging artist sofii, also known as Sophie Koella, announces her deeply personal debut EP I want this feeling to last forever, a self-produced meditation of 4 songs on emotion, memory, and the echoes of the unlived. Born from the necessity to process, the project weaves classical elegance, electronic textures, and lyrical repetition into a trance-like exploration of nostalgia: past, present and future.

Born in New Orleans to a French guitarist (who used to play with Bob Dylan) and an American mother, sofii’s life has been scored by contrasts: ballet and classic music discipline, jazz’s improvisation, and the restless energy of cities like NYC and Paris where she cut her teeth in its underground scene. After years modelling and djing, she stepped into music direction for Courrèges alongside Erwan Sene before claiming her voice as a solo producer. In 2024 she co-founded the Paris collective and event series More Hard Feelings alongside Emma DJ, Julia Lemaire, and Matière Noire inviting the likes of Skrillex, Varg2TM, Safety Trance and Bill Kouligas.

The EP’s lead single and title track is released with the album announcement with a music video. She elaborates:’Iwtftlf’ is a song about nostalgia for something we don’t yet know or have lived—also known as anemoia. It’s about a moment in time that stands perfectly still, a fraction of a second we wish would never end. This stillness, this calm before the storm, is at the heart of the track. It portrays a story suspended between the lived and the unlived, a memory that doesn’t belong to us yet aches like it’s already gone.

As for the rest of the EP, “Cry for Me” (reimagined with Greek producer Raed Raees) layers vocals like a cleansing tide, dissolving into a piano finale that nods to Sofii’s classical roots. The mantra “say it over” loops, invoking meditation’s rhythmic solace. “Remember“, penned in Paris, twists a crisis-born text message into pulsing synths and the EP’s only percussive heartbeat. And “Pocket Dial” samples a 3-minute voicemail from sofii’s grandmother—an accidental, aching relic of connection—set to wordless strings and synth.
