We are proud and excited to share this exclusive mix from the Macedonian based duo Private Mountain, Dimitar Dodovski and Toni Dimitrov. A special journey through the beautiful Macedonian ambient music. 

Bio
Private Mountain is audio and visual project of Dimitar Dodovski (https://soundcloud.com/dimitardodovski) and Toni Dimitrov (https://soundcloud.com/tonidimitrov) releasing their debut album 'Blue Mountain' on UK label Neotantra (curated by Lee Anthony Norris). It is a project about their shared fascination with nature, art, philosophy and discussions about the past and future of ambient music, that resulted with a beautiful introspective album that entered the bandcamp chart of ambient bestsellers and received many great reviews.
The album 'Dark Political Stratum' by Private Mountain is the third release on the Macedonian experimental label Élan Vital Recordings, and second for the duo of Toni Dimitrov and Dimitar Dodovski. The album refers to the global geopolitical changes and turbulence at the beginning of the 21 century. Produced in Macedonia, a center of the global geostrategic clashes of the superpowers, it is a sound statement to these global political shifts, observed through the local prism. Macedonia in the recent years and under the pressure of the neighboring countries and the superpowers, using all methods of the hybrid war, passed through very harsh historical times and major changes, that unfortunately resulted with disintegration of the nation as we know it. 'Dark political stratum' is slightly noisier and experimental release, which development came out as an outtake of the material for the upcoming album 'СТРАТУМИ', coming up as their third release on Silent Season label.

Gentleman - To All The Ladies ' Deep House Mix 2020

As we collectively take a moment to ruminate and ponder an uncertain future, the music stays with us, guiding us through the sullen seclusion of the moment. Our next guest Andrey PUSHKAREV has a particular way of wrapping the listener in an endless blanket of warm resonant chords, slowly subduing them into a contemplative trance. Hailing from the hardened landscapes of Russia, he has made a name for himself as a top purveyor of deep, dubby grooves that uplift into insight. Using music as a medium, he externalizes the infinite complexities of his reality into a simple yet all-encompassing passage of sound. The result is as captivating as it is comforting, and we are very pleased to present this spring edition of UNRUSH from the maestro himself.

Thanks a lot https://soundcloud.com/andrey-pushkarev

047 - Unrushed by Andrey PUSHKAREV

Our new In Focus mix series have been brought to life during times of isolation. And what’s better than spending your time diving into new music or DJ-sets from artists you admire? That’s what we thought. The next couple of weeks, we will be asking one artist each week to deliver a mix build around a self-picked theme. Everyone is free to do what and how they feel like, and create something special for themselves and everyone who’s keen to give it a listen too. We hope you enjoy.

Who else would be better to kick off with than our dear friend Palms Trax? Not only has Jay been a favourite of ours for years, he has become probably everyone else’s as well. His contribution to In Focus is one we have listened to in one go: a “100% originals, features, edits and remixes by Joaquin Joe Claussell” mix, which resulted in a stirring and spiritual tribute to one of the all-time greats.

Palms Trax: “Over the last couple of years I’ve found his music to have this wonderful effect on a dancefloor where the whole place can feel like it’s levitating, so when lockdown hit I started going through his records at home and found it to be incredibly healing. Hopefully some people out there feel the same way!“.
