It took a while before I received this recording but finally it is here. My set from the camp that I so proudly joined: Bubbles and Bass. I played there on Wednesday morning,  after I had spent one of the most fun nights of my life with my playa family. @nikisadeki had played a beautiful sunrise set and I was flying with so many old and new friends that were there to dance with me. I want to thank @bubbles-and-bass for embracing me and having me in their camp. Every sunrise party that we threw, every bottle of champagne we opened, every time somebody screamed "Bubbles" on the playa there was a huge smile on my face. And that smile is still there when I think about all the moments I experienced during that week. There was love and laughter everywhere. But time for contemplation, insights and lessons too. It was one of the most intense experiences I have had and it probably took until now to really process it. So what a timing that I find this recording in my inbox a few days ago. Thank you so much @m-tort for sending me this. You are fucking legend!! Enjoy this mix for now, hopefully I can meet some of you listeners soon and tell the whole story about this set cause it was a really funny ride. Dusty hugs and love you all!!

(Story written by The Doubljuh, English translation below)

Es war einmal ein weiser alter Zauberer. Er hatte einen langen Bart, der ihm bis zu den Knien reichte. Aufgrund eines missglückten Zaubers war dieser jedoch nicht schneeweiß, sondern Regenbogen-bunt. Deshalb hatte es der alte Greis schwer in der magischen Gemeinschaft. Beim alljährlichen Treffen im Kanutenwald war ihm dieses schwerwiegende Missgeschick passiert. Der alte Zauberer wollte bei der Zusammenkunft einen mystischen Trank brauen, der schon über Jahrtausende nicht mehr hergestellt wurde. Dieser Trank sollte die Kraft haben, zerstörte Landstriche binnen weniger Sekunden in den prächtigsten Farben erblühen zu lassen. Doch bei der Herstellung stolperte er und schüttete sich das Gebräu in seinen Bart. Dieser wurde sofort kunterbunt und kein Gegenzauber dieser Welt konnte diese Wirkung umkehren. Fort an lachten sich die anderen alten wiesen Männer schlapp, wenn sie den bunten Bart sahen.
Über die Jahre wurde der Zauberer mit dem kuriosen Bart immer schwermütiger. Ein weißer Bart ist für Männer seiner Zunft eminent wichtig und ein unerlässliches Merkmal. Seine Laune wurde immer schlechter und in seinen Gedanken zog Bitterkeit ein. Genauso wie das Herz erkrankte auch der Wald in dem er wohnte. Die Tiere des Waldes machten sich große Sorgen und trafen sich eines Tages zu einer Konferenz. Zuerst waren sie ratlos, bis das verrückte Wildschwein auf die Idee kam ein großes Fest für den Zauberer zu veranstalten. Die anderen Tiere stimmten zu und begannen sofort mit der Vorbereitung für die große Veranstaltung.
Der Zauberer saß wie immer auf einen alten abgestorbenen Baumstumpf und blies Trübsal, als er plötzlich in der Ferne eine Trompete hörte. Sie spielte eine fröhliche Melodie, die ihm irgendwie bekannt vorkam. Er stand auf und wollte die Quelle des Geräusches ergründen. Nach einiger Zeit fand er die Tiere des Waldes auf einer Lichtung. Dort angekommen bildeten die Tiere einen Kreis um den verwirrten Mann sangen für ihn. Tränen liefen alsbald über seine Augen, als er erkannte, dass die Tiere das alles für ihn machten. Der Mann mit den bunten Bart ließ sich auf den bunten Reigen ein und lachte, tanzte, scherzte und feierte mit den Tieren „all night long“! Pure Freude erfüllte das Herz des Zauberers und wie ein Wunder verwandelte sich der Wald in wenigen Sekunden in ein blühendes Paradies... und so hatte der Zauber letztendlich doch noch gewirkt und wer weiß, vielleicht war das auch das Geheimnis des Zaubers.

There once was a wise old wizard. He had a long beard which looked like an average wizard’s beard, apart from the fact that it was rainbow-colored instead of snow-white.  This unusual color was due to a mishap involving an ill-executed magic spell, which happened at the annual meeting in the canoe forest.  That day he attempted to brew an old magic potion to regenerate destitute forest areas within seconds and make flowers bloom in the most magnificent colors.  But unfortunately he fumbled and the brew poured over his beard, which became very colorful in a matter of seconds.
And to add insult to injury, there was no known antidote which could reverse this effect.  From then on, the poor wizard was the laughing stock of the magic community.

Over the years, the wizard became more and more melancholic.  A white beard is eminently important to men of his stature.   Like his heart, the forest in which he lived also fell ill.  The animals decided to do something to help the wizard and decided to organize a big surprise party.
When the wizard found out, tears rolled over his cheeks when he realized that the animals were doing it all for him.  The man felt revitalized and laughed, danced and celebrated with the animals "all night long"!  Pure joy filled his heart, and miraculously the forest transformed into a thriving paradise in just a few seconds.  And so the spell had finally worked…

In these unparalleled times, Paboona & Roswitha are also in quarantine. Yet, they have managed to create a musical Voyage together, but in an unconventional way. This podcast has been recorded in a unique sequence: part of the set recorded from Paboona's little house in the forest, then flying digitally to Roswitha, who recorded her part by a cosy church steeple in Amsterdam, and back. 

They have selected for you sweet melodies to lighten up these unpredictable times and also... stimulate you, perhaps, to do some extra physical exercise in your living room.

A Voyage of Spirits by Roswitha & Paboona ⚗ VOS 066

The wonderful guardian of mystical forests, an honor to have a Witchtape on Sunset Grooves. To be honest no need to introduce Hekske's music and everything you need to know can be understood through the mix and the lovely interview. One of those mixes you just click and let yourself float... 

Interview with @Hekske 
*********************
Good morning Hekske 😊

➢ I hope you agree to answer a few random and fun questions to share with our listeners?

Sure, it’s the first time of my life I’m doing some sort of interview (and probably the last time as well). So let’s do this 😊

➢ To start you off tell us what song puts you in a good mood when you wake up in the morning?

Well, generally I already wake up in a good mood every morning so no need to listen to music. Occasionally I’m listening to ‘4ware’ from Deadmau5 to pump myself full of energy for the whole day.

➢ About three years ago you decided to invite your first DJ guest onto your witchtapes podcast. Tell us briefly what was your dream then and how has it maybe changed today?

Well, in early 2017 I made the very first mini-mixes of my life (these are witchtapes 1-2-3). At that point I was contacted by a Tunisian artist named Samer Soltan and he asked whether he could release a mix on my soundcloud page. I replied that my page was not a channel, only to change my mind 24 hours later, so we gave it a go and that became Witchtape #4. And the rest is history. It was only 8 months later (with Witchtape #14) that I started writing fairy tales about the now-famous little witch. So it really took quite a while before my channel really took shape. At the start of my channel I was basically just clueless so there actually was no dream or vision … it just happened.

➢ As someone who also runs a podcast series, what are some of the criteria when inviting artists to do a mix for you?

When I sense that an artist is resonating with the mystic-magic vibe of my channel, an invitation may follow sooner rather than later 😊

➢ 2020 has been a difficult year for the music scene, how has it changed within your hometown and what do you think will be different in the future?

Oh well, my hometown is easily the sleepiest town in Belgium, with no such thing as a music scene, apart from a carnival band named ‘Fret Tet & The Swinging Tepelboys’ which you can translate as ‘Fred Tit & The Swinging Nippleboys’. But given the dramatic corona situation in Belgium, the nipples have stopped shaking in 2020 … the carnival parade of 2021 has already been cancelled so I guess the nipples will only resume swinging in 2022.

➢ Lastly, regarding this mix you have done for us, can you tell us a little bit of your thought process behind choosing the tracks you chose?

Last summer, while doing some paintwork in my house, I was listening on repeat to ‘Long Story Short’, an absolutely epic podcast from Vincent Gericke from 3 years ago. I decided to make some kind of tribute mix and picked 3 tracks from ‘Long Story Short’ and started weaving some new tracks around that, while preserving most of the original atmosphere. After that I got a bit stuck for a few weeks until out of the blue an unknown DJ gave me the id of a track I had requested over 1 year ago. So that became my opening track. Still the middle section didn’t work out, until all of a sudden I realized that I had an unreleased Vincent Gericke track somewhere on a USB stick (which he sent to me 2 years ago). And suddenly all pieces fell together
