Number three comes from Sanja Cozma, part of the musical project "Das Wettbüro", who will release their first EP soon on the Düsseldorfian label @Candomblé, is also a member of the explorative sound collective "Frank Nubala" (www.franknubala.com/). He was so kind to donate an easy listening, wavey, balearic sunday feest for our mix series. It felt like he knew exactly what our ears need right now and delivered. Eyes on the goal and full throttle on the soul. Thanks a lot and enjoy :-)!

MIX Nr.5 by @djradiohobo !

*************************

As every blossom fades
and all youth sinks into old age,
so every life’s design, each flower of wisdom,
attains its prime and cannot last forever.
The heart must submit itself courageously
to life’s call without a hint of grief,
A magic dwells in each beginning,
protecting us, telling us how to live.

High purposed we shall traverse realm on realm,
cleaving to none as to a home,
the world of spirit wishes not to fetter us
but raise us higher, step by step.
Scarce in some safe accustomed sphere of life
have we establish a house, then we grow lax;
only he who is ready to journey forth
can throw old habits off.

Maybe death’s hour too will send us out new-born
towards undreamed-lands,
maybe life’s call to us will never find an end
Courage my heart, take leave and fare thee well

- Herman Hesse "Steps" (1941)

Mix #10 w/ Pieter Jansen

Accompanying our third release, the artist self has recorded half an hour of pure bliss and gentle peace of mind. 

Anechosis is a the fear of only being told what you want to hear; whether by friends trying to lift you up or by family trying to convince you that you're not as bad as you think you are; the longing for someon to call you out so you can understand who you are. - John Koenig (taken from the Book of Obscure Sorrows)

Anechosis is being released on the 29th of April 2022 on all streaming platforms as well as Bandcamp.

Mix #11 Obscure Sorrows w/ Knox

We are delighted to feature @magicmuelli's very catchy set for Natural Positions. Taking it's turns, the mix passes different layers & levels and leaves a warm and mystic impression while presenting you melodies from the shores of japan to the pine trees of sicily and beyond. A touch of psychedelic folk and a passion for stomping blues and swing origins do not go unoticed in these playful and interesting 66 minutes. The mix contains tracks by Baligh Hamdi, Piero Umiliani, Jean-Pierre Mirouze and many more. Thank you for the Mix Magïc Müllï!

Magïc Müllï is a selector living in Berlin and has recently begun a new show-format at Cashmere Radio together with her partner @madlubi.

Careful assembly of powerful dream gear on vinyl by the London DJ & event host, Lenny. The mix demands a well trained ear and an open mind while rewarding the listener with spiritual let-go gems a la tripped out folk and forgotten chants.

Lenny keeps busy with his monthly outing Lenny & Friends and his mega sets for the Cheeky Soundsystem. We're happy to have him bring the next instalment for the Natural Positions' mix series.
