Paris-based DJ, Maemm shapes her style by navigating through different atmospheres. Her sets usually focus on hypnotic and raw sounds, sometimes with a hint of psychedelic tones. She also draws inspiration from ambient and more experimental genres, leading her to occasionally slow down the pace and delve into slow, vaporous atmospheres with very downtempo rhythms. Her love for exploring and discovering new sounds keeps her in a constant state of evolution.

Hello and welcome to the second episode of the official Lurkmusik podcast! Today we get to dive into the world of Gooutonahinote, who is presenting old and new tunes from the cauldron, freshly mastered and ready for your ears. 

ARTIST GREETING:

Wass good in da hood! Welcome back everybody to the LUrkmusik podcast. This is E speaking, AKA Goouto, the project manager for Gooutonahinote. For this episode, I have compiled a full hour of the strange sounds I've been recording in several locations here in the outskirts of the smolandian woodlands. As these sounds are being emitted on frequencies far from the human spectrum of hearing, I have been working day and night to convert and translate this information into audible material. 

This has proved to be a tricky process as these sounds has many strange effects on the human mind, and as a result my own sanity has been compromised several times.. Anyways, it is in my hopes that these effects has been mitigated through the translation process. But as I cannot know - you are listening at your own risk.

Nontheless, I hope this proves to be a enjoyable piece, hopefully furthering our understanding of the inner outer, less-known aspects of our universe.

Special thanks to Cindervomit/Endless Knot for assisting me with some masters, aswell as to the Lurkmusik Crew for keeping it real. 

⋅˚₊‧ ★ ‧₊˚ ⋅

Much love, Goouto.

Bliss - Gannein Curates #5 on Line Out Radio - Sept 2024

"This mix is inspired by life on a microscopic scale. I drew from two different topics I have been reading about over the past year or two, the first being moss & lichen, and the second being quantum physics. Robin Wall Kimerer’s writing on moss introduces the reader to a tiny world teeming with life beyond our vision, and Carlo Rovelli’s writing on quantum physics attempts to help us understand the minute & strange fabric from which reality is theoretically woven. 

The word subtle can be read as describing something delicately complex & understated, as well as something arranged in an ingenious & elaborate way. Thus, the plane of subtle form paints an image of the intricate realm of the minutiae. Moving through rainforests of moss and gorges of bark, the mix traverses this infinitesimal yet vast expanse. Becoming gradually more abstract towards its centre, things break down completely at a moment of quantum instability, a leap between one state and the next. We emerge into a new place in an instant and continue forth into the strange & unpredictable beauty of our natural world." 

Bio: Born in London & having lived in Bristol, James Laing aka Night Garden draws from the sounds of those two cities, alongside musical knowledge gained during his classical compositional training. With releases on Melifera, Bahn, Indefinite Pitch & Breatice M's hybrid Dubstep label, Bait, Night Garden aims to create richly psychedelic & hypnotic pieces which combine modern sound design with classical theoretical concepts. 

Night Garden is a musical project embodying an imagined space between our conscious reality & the land of dreams. It is a liminal point in space & time; a home to drifting forms & sounds unknown. Suspended in a twilight haze, its nebulous inhabitants float into distant obscurities, shedding ephemeral traces from their transient skin.
