Made myself a birthday mix! Just went for it - no plan or intention other than to take myself on the journey I'd like to go on in the club. It's not perfect - I recorded this at home while trying not to disturb the neighbours and I find mixing at low volume hard. I also definitely accidentally nudged a jog wheel while a song was layered in... But I've also only been doing this for 3 months, so :)

Birthday Mix

Chaos Theory (wings of a butterfly)

Kahli is a Sri Lankan/American selector & digger that grew up on the vibrant South-East
Asian island. Having performed in Bangladesh, India and China, she has shared the stage with notable characters in the experimental electronic scene such as KHXDEEJ, Ancient Methods, and Phasmid. Unafraid to spin styles of all kinds, Kahli is deepening Sri Lanka’s relationship with high energy leftfield styles like bass, techno (hypnotic) and breakbeats. Keep up with her new project @kahlaj_sl.

Khali’s mix drifts through shadowy ambient and driving percussion, tracing a story that begins in atmospheric ritual and builds into kinetic, bass-heavy club energy. Allow the claps and snares to lure you into this deep, bass-rich hypnotic techno set, where subtle shifts, minimal textures, and slow-burning intensity invite the listener into a trance.

Beginning with an ethereal piece from Hearts of Space Records and closing with a reggae/dub-inspired remix by Mulholland, Khali draws a full circle with this selection. Inspired by the sets she’s performed for her favorite local event, @secretevents.cmb, this is a mix built for late night minds and open ears.

OBSKRRD 271 // Kahli

This new EP was born during a trip to Brazil, where Entrañas (Dani) stayed with Kontronatura (Achille) and his cats. That warmth and hospitality inspired a project that, despite its dark tones and deep bass, carries a sense of affection — a nod to the friendliness of Brazilians, especially Achille.

Brazil’s vibrant identity and rich Latin electronic scene stood in stark contrast to Ecuador, where such a movement doesn’t exist. For Entrañas, embracing Ecuadorian roots is an act of resistance against cultural erasure from the US. Musically, the EP blends baile funk, techno, and bass, with “Eris” adding Ecuadorian bomba and tribal rhythms — a delight for fans of 6/8 and triplets.

Both artists are no strangers to the label’s catalog: Entrañas previously appeared on the Amor Na Endz 3 compilation and on Nadī & Otus’s Less Talk/ More Talk remix EP, while Kontronatura featured with a remix on Obeka’s Temple Drum EP.

This release is not only a celebration for the artists but also for the label, once again born from long-distance support and mutual appreciation.

Moving from Sri Lanka to Canada, Dimuth K has been quietly shaping a career defined by momentum and mood. His sets are deep and driving, often unfolding into hypnotic territory that lingers long after the lights come up.

It’s no surprise he’s become a fixture at Canada’s finest institutions (Coda, Stereo, and History) regularly stepping into booths that have also hosted the artists who shaped his path: Sasha, Eric Prydz, Danny Tenaglia.

In the studio, that same forward motion carries through. His productions have landed on Sudbeat, The Soundgarden, and Consequence of Society, labels that champion both emotion and precision. His recent collaboration with Simply City, Resonance on Balance Croatia, underscores his ability to craft moody, powerful tracks that never lose their intimacy.

For this Balance Selections mix, Dimuth delivers 80 minutes bristling with underground current. Featuring music from Gespona & Djolee, Zehv, and a series of his own collaborations, it’s a statement set from one of the scene’s most quietly underrated artists.
