251026 MIX

Unrushed and enjoying life slowly in Berlin since 2016. U N R U S H is an experiment in sound and ambience, created to facilitate moments where you can find calm in your mind, when the world can encourage you to fast forward, blink and miss some of the beauty. Atmosphere through audio can help us reduce stress, stimulate ideas and creativity or just relax and soak in what’s around us. The label and podcast series is applauded by artists across corners of the electronic music scene, and their contributions are an insight to the music we all need, when we aren’t living life in the fast lane. Where we can find inner peace, clarity and embrace reflection.

Unrush maintains such a nice, measured pace that they continue to release on tape, a taste of the 80s. This physical medium captures a point in time, yet still holds a vital place today and in the future. This December sees their 6th overall release and their third on the tape format with 7 tracks: The Unrush Tapes 03 with Chie Otomi / Daniel[i] & Lukas Freisem.

In Aachen, Germany, Daniel[i] and Lukas Freisem have long been musical comrades, but this release on Unrush is their first official collaboration, in addition to being Lukas Freisem’s debut release. Daniel[i] is a name we love to see on any lineup or upcoming release, thanks to his work on Mojuba, Muzan Editions, and his own platform, Whispering Signals. Over the weekend, my music partner, Jake (Passaat), and I opened with his track 'En Trance' at a Pintai event in London — another example of the ambient brilliance in Daniel[i]'s locker, warming the room exactly the way we intended. I first discovered Lukas Freisem's talent at La Nature Festival in 2024, where his all-vinyl morning set—delivered with impeccable class, elegance, and a warm smile and sway — absolutely blew me away, top vibe. Finding out he was a mind and digger behind the operations at Tam Tam Records in Aachen solidified it: an incredible DJ, and now I can now say he is also an incredible producer, too.

Crackles, distortion. It feels timeless. Their sound flirts with rhythm, it wants to get going, but instead, it remains patient, a solid foundation. Above this foundation, layers of ebb and flow. These ebbs and flows come as long, inhaled pauses, hazy chords, and a gentle expansion and retraction, like soft breathing. It’s on Unrush, you get the picture, it’s gentle and facilitates the perfect focus for any time of day.

‘The Unrush Tapes 03’ is released digitally & on cassette on December 5th.

Gravitational Drift Vol. 3

After more than a year in the works, we are pleased to announce our debut VA available through digital streaming and on vinyl.

Mélange is a new community and online platform for young emerging artists based between Europe and Australasia. The first of the label’s VA compilation album spans corners of electronic and world music and weaves between classical/ambient sounds and UKG, Jungle & Disco. It’s a commitment to multi-genre discographies and the need for more established career paths for young, gifted artists.

With early support on the vinyl from Four Tet and Haai, our goal is to help share and further establish European and Oceanic sounds with music lovers everywhere.

Nez Vinyl Mix Dec 25

In a moment where festivals blur into a constant scroll of names and posters, Ouroboros has always felt anchored to something more elemental. Tucked into the Cantal wilderness, it operates like a temporary ecosystem, built on trust between artists, crews, and the land itself. Toé sits at the center of that orbit. As a DJ, producer, and co-architect of the festival’s identity, her presence carries a quiet authority. The same sensibility runs through Soma Animae, her personal platform that reads like a field journal, and through Chimaera, the Eyes Wide Open radio show she curates for LYL. Spend a little time with her work and the through-line becomes clear. Nature is not an aesthetic reference point here. It is the operating system.

That context matters when listening back to her set from this year’s Ouroboros, now part of our Delayed with series. Peak hour on paper, but the usual signals are intentionally bypassed. Instead of release-driven drama, Toé builds a flexible structure where tension is constantly adjusted, stretched, and rebalanced. Acid pressure appears and dissolves, depth gives way to propulsion, grooves are allowed to settle before being nudged elsewhere. Ouroboros’ connection to its surroundings has always shaped how sound functions there, and Toé navigates that dynamic instinctively. The forest is not a backdrop but a participant, absorbing and reflecting the pulse coming from the sound system. For those two hours, the exchange holds steady, neither side dominating. What you hear in this set is that equilibrium, electronic music meeting the physical world without either one blinking first.

“We circle around and around and around. 
 As if dancing with the fire’s breath. 
 An ever-turning wheel, 
 Like a flame spiraling itself into endless spaces.”
