Now in its tenth year, Frankfurt-based record label Die Orakel has earned itself a strong catalogue of classy releases in a distinct sonic and visual attitude, its latest being a compilation called Braindance. 

A fair assumption about Braindance as a genre could be, that it's rather in the zone of kaleidoscopic and whimsical quirktronica, less about IDM's futurist tropes. From Die Orakel's point of view, its very own Braindance compilation marks the label's tenth anniversary by releasing an intense listener's atlas, to its own and their creative collaborators' musical slant of mind.

While much could be said about spectral traces of a leftfield past, nostalgia isn't heard anywhere. The more you listen to this selection, the deeper the tracks plug into your brain—stretching from ethereal harmonic licks rippling with fragile glitches, bleepy to bass-heavy electroid steppers of any BPM range, to abstract-scientific neo-modular artistry. 

Die Orakel's Braindance transmission can be had as a 15-track digi-release, as well as a 4-track vinyl EP. Pick either for your library of the future.

This weeks episode features esteemed Eora DJ/Producer Milenze.

Under her current pseudonym, Milenze has found home with her truest passion of all - raw industrial techno. Her focus as a selector is to curate sets that produce intense energy, brutality and emotion. Demonstrating range that comes from a diverse musical background combined with a 'take no prisoners' approach, her sets produce a distinctly unique journey.

Festimi Podcast 75 - Teqmun 
 
We're happy to share our new podcast made by the artist who'll join us at Lofi's Colorfloor on May 11: Tijmen Blokzijl aka Teqmun. The promising DJ and producer once said about Upsammy’s music: 'It evokes the sensation of crawling through a landscape like an ant.' He curated a mix that feels to call upon this visualization. In this hour filled with half-time breaks and prickly rhythms you get a good idea of what he's all about. It's adventurous, unpredictable and driving; gritty, raw textures intertwine with bright glowing melodies and synths, creating a sense of ease and softness you want to drown in, while haunting elements and energetic percussion keep it lively and much bouncing. A beautiful mix!
