Poignant distortion. For this episode I like to welcome @spekkiwebu

Mirror Zone founder, EOS Radio resident and close associate Spekki Webu brings us into a world full of dark and distorted emotions that floats us through the tunnels of our own existence. This mix reflects his point of view on the current situation we are living in. Dark vibes for dark times. 

I'm very pleased that he participated and will be the last one for this year to guide us through his musical fascinations.

CELLAR DOOR // PODCAST #122
@ oreste-music

On our next Cellar Door Mix, we extend a heartfelt invitation to Oreste, from the enchanting city of Nantes, France. The inception of the project Oreste goes back to 2019, initiated by the talented Gwendal Suau. Oreste's musical odyssey predominantly unfurls in the realms of ambient melodies, a creative endeavor that has borne abundant fruit for this burgeoning artist. His sonic voyages, released through labels like Emerald Garden and Rites, have garnered him a dedicated and discerning following within this niche musical tapestry. Oreste remains a hidden figure in the vast expanse of the internet, leaving us with a singular focal point: his music.

The honor of hosting Oreste on our platform fills our hearts with boundless joy, and his gracious acceptance of our invitation resonates like a harmonious chord in the symphony of our anticipation.

As the seasons gracefully usher in cooler temperatures and the daylight wanes, the mellifluous journey Oreste promises to embark upon has left us in a state of speechless wonder. We ardently believe that this captivating musical sojourn shall similarly leave you contemplative and enraptured.

#122-ORESTE

Hailing from Amsterdam and with De School as his homebase, @nawazworldwide’s sound is always evolving, sliding deftly from wormhole techno to fast rhythms and glitchy electronics.

His selections on this Patterns of Perception 119 melt together while also reinforcing each other, each transition subtler than the last, sometimes even employing his own tailor-made tools and tracks for the purpose.

Beginning from a visual image, this mix blends diverse rhythms and atmospheres, offering a story line from which the listener can create their own narrative, their own image, free of imposition.

Patterns of Perception 119 - Nawaz

The act of fictional world crafting is reserved for only a few, and https://soundcloud.com/astralindustries?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing seems to hone the craft without the need for any words. The London-based record label became a nucleus for deep electronic music across the globe, fusing introspective sonic explorations of the most pivotal musicians with the visual storytelling of Theo Ellsworth on limited-edition vinyl. The next chapter in this sacred discography is written by the Italian producer https://soundcloud.com/pianetisintetici?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing. He invites you on the journey of ‘Space Opera’.

Space Opera will be out on May 31st, 2024. Order a copy via Bandcamp.

Art Bei Ton Podcast 116: Hydrangea

"In the depths of sound, where rhythm becomes ritual, the pulse of the earth and the cosmos align. Each beat calls forth forgotten whispers, weaving a hypnotic dance between the seen and the unseen, where the soul drifts through the veil and touches the timeless essence of the mystical."

ILAY, an 18-year-old sound artist behind the alias ILAYRUNI (@ilayruni), works at the crossroads of electronic music and percussive instruments. Merging these two worlds, he explores the possibility of rhythm and sound. Growing up in a family that had a strong bond with the electronic music scene, ILAY had access to a wide range of styles and sounds, giving him the chance to wander and discover all types of frequencies and feelings. Traveling through a wide range of styles during his sets and productions, he seeks highly percussive rhythmic patterns that merge with synthesizers and give place to deep soundscapes.

More about Xiaolin ~

Xiaolin (曉霖) is a DJ, producer, vinyl collector and classically-trained musician from Hong Kong. Driven by a relentless curiosity for warm sounds, complex emotions and colourful textures, she enjoys crafting magnetic sets that draw audiences in, while her live ambient sets reveal the more contemplative side of her natural musicality as a former concert violinist.

Xiaolin spent a decade studying classical violin, jazz, world music and electronic composition at Juilliard (BM’14) and Berklee Valencia (MM ’15/’16), where she played in Batucada/jazz bands and began collecting records under her mentor, Nacho Marco. Having spent two years in London just before the pandemic, she developed an interest in UK underground culture and Detroit electro.

Inspired by sounds from the the mid 80’s-early 00’s, her love for video games, anime, nature as well as a respect for her Cantonese roots, Xiaolin’s analog synth-heavy productions range from gritty acid house and breaks with earthy percussion to tripped-out electro, bassy groovers and raw downtempo ambience that invoke deeper feelings of romantic adventure with a dreamy, theatrical touch.  

Despite her ever-evolving nature, Xiaolin’s ethereal-yet-raw sound remains a signature throughout all productions.

Xiaolin is sensitive to the dancefloor and crafts an intuitive journey unbound by genre, digging deep to discover dynamic connections.  Her energetic, acid-laden selections explore the vast in-between of house and techno, while her original live set has three formats: “Sun” for daytime settings, “Moon” for meditative settings and “Body” for nightclub settings.

Releases include two EP’s on 宀 Records, a collaborative track on Klasse Wrecks “Michaelsoft", VA contributions on 20/20 Vision (Exit Planet Earth – “Helium”), Polychrome Audio (“Diffraction EP”) and Harmony Rec (upcoming), as well as three 80’s Cantonese disco tribute EP’s on Sound Metaphors’ “Bless You” imprint (A&R by Jane Fitz).

Xiaolin's ‘HEX’ residency at 宀 (Hong Kong) has seen her invite & play alongside guests such as Polygonia, Mary Lake, Peach, Merve, Vlada, Joe Delon, Closet Yi, Jesse You, Maara etc.  She hosts a bimonthly show on Baihui Radio China and has done guest mixes on EYA, Test Pressing, The Mudd Show, The Lot Radio, NTS and Balamii amongst others.  

Recent highlights include Boiler Room (Singapore), Blitz Club (Unchained), and Panorama Bar on live set as part of Sound Metaphors’ 9-year-anniversary event (coinciding with the release of her second EP on Bless You), with upcoming sets at Wonderfruit Festival and Womb Tokyo.  She will make her Rainbow Disco Club live set debut with Kuniyuki Takahashi in April 2025.

@syberkid creates a journey through the flames, leaving us with the burning embers of an eclectic mix of drone and ambient harmony. This was recorded live at the ‘Burning of The Clavie’ at MKII in London, on January 11th 2025.

This artwork is a collaboration between Sybil, Adam, and Mark, creating cymatics of sonic experimentation, and with each installment of the series, we will explore turning a fraction of sound into light. 🎨

Reihe OP7 Next Level

Through darkness, destiny is carved in stone
Yet man has been given the fragile gift of free will,
And for a fleeting breath, he believes he can rewrite what already awaits him.
Lives cross upon the thin thread allowed by time.

Connections are formed, bonds are forged in fire or in silence.
But neither time nor life belongs to us;
Every choice is a knife plunged into eternity — and every destiny, the blade returning to the hand.

Lives are taken, even when we fight against the current.
And when the future is poisoned by worms that feed on deceit,
Only the vengeance of a stolen love remains,
Returning to chaos to demand its due.

The man who keeps his word seals his own oath with blood.
And when the primal instinct shatters the bars of morality,
The true human nature is revealed:
Chaos, destruction, and death.

Love and hate become indistinguishable,
Fused into a single incandescent metal.
Physical death is but the first gate.
In darkness, this wretched existence shall face eternal punishment.
But in the world of men,
It shall know the purest, deepest meaning of pain…
And despair.
