Hame’s productions, performances, and personality radiate warmth; and this podcast is no different. 
 
A dear friend of the festival, whose musical craftsmanship leaves us in awe every time. In June, he guided the Above Below audience through dusk, with a blissful live set, a welcomed embrace, as we prepared for one final night of dancing.   

Hame has gifted us a number of warm, deep, unreleased tracks in this new mix, and we can all share excitement for their release throughout the course of 2024.

As always, look after your mind, nature and others  🌱

We’re thrilled to share the next Planet Paradigm Podcast, delivered by Dresden. Recorded live at Planet Paradigm 2025, where they played the Forest Stage. The duo, consisting of Manfredas & Ivan Smagghe, treated us to their signature sound: a mix of new tracks, nostalgic minimal grooves, and psychedelic layers that pulled us all into another dimension. Now it’s time to dive back in. Enjoy the ride!

Soltar y Confiar  (means let go and trust )  is a deeply authentic project, with a transparent sound full of life, where the singers’ voices and acoustic instruments dance together in harmony, inviting a journey of introspection and movement that feels fresh, natural, joyful, and distinctly South American.

‘Soltar y Confiar is a mantra that has accompanied me throughout the process of making myself known as an artist, especially in moments of frustration, anxiety, and doubt. It reminds me that everything happens for a reason; that when a door doesn’t open, it’s because it’s not the path or the right moment. What’s left to do is simply let go and trust the process.’ — Playroots

Playroots is the project of Aníbal Valenzuela, a Chilean multi-instrumentalist, DJ, and producer. Over the past three years, he has toured with his live set, blending organic instruments with electronic sounds influenced by house and dub. He has performed at festivals such as Fusion (Germany) and Ozora (Hungary), and at venues like BOHO (Ibiza), Bonjuk Bay (Turkey), Zazala (Paros), and Casa Reia (Lisbon), as well as opening for Hermanos Gutiérrez in Chile.

We invite you to discover this journey filled with mystique, peace, and earthy sounds, featuring 3 originals plus three rhythm-driven remixes by Dvniel from Mexico, Matt Jah from Italy, and Marco Tegui from Peru. From South America to the world, we hope you connect deeply with this beautiful release and enjoy it to the fullest!”

Soltar y Confiar es un proyecto muy auténtico, con un sonido transparente y lleno de vida, donde las voces de las cantantes y el sonido de los instrumentos acústicos danzan de manera sutil y coordinada para invitar a un viaje de introspección y movimiento que a su vez es muy fresco, natural, alegre, muy sudamericano. 

 “Soltar y confiar es un mantra que me ha acompañado en el proceso de darme a conocer como artista, especialmente en momentos de frustración, ansiedad y duda. Me recuerda que todo pasa por algo, que cuando una puerta no se abre es porque no es el camino o el momento, y que lo que queda es soltar y confiar en el proceso” — Playroots

Interview with @budino:

"I tried to do a mix which could represent my music style development in the last months. One of the special records in there (that I never played actually) is Susana Estrada, repressed by Disco Segreta (Original is from 1980, just on tape). This was the “soundtrack” of a sexy live show. I find it very futuristic for the time. "
