There was a time when only fast and hectic sound waves sweetened our ears. But then everything was suddenly different: The speed of sound was drastically reduced and the beats became more chilled. The atmosphere at the parties changed and our taste in music was reinvented. If we look back over the years, one thing can be said: We love downtempo and are very grateful for the acquaintance.

A big thank you goes out to @meaex from the @heimlichaufsc collective for this wonderful set. It suits our taste exactly and we feel like dancing.

Soooo hier ist der Mitschnitt von meinem Gig auf dem Sonnendeck. 


Die Aufnahme hat leider nicht die beste Quali und hat auch so seine Fehlerchen weil mal bei nem Übergang ans Jogwheel gekommen und dabei außem Rhythmus gekommen, an manchen stellen übersteuert usw blabla....aber ich habe mich dagegen entschieden es zu re-recorden weil es dann nicht genau den Moment wiedergegeben hätte wie er war! 

Warum dann hoch laden? Weil es wie wahrscheinlich von vielen immer nen großer Traum von mir war auf der Fusion zu spielen und ich unglaublich geflashed bin das es dieses Jahr urplötzlich soweit war. Diesen Moment will ich gerne teilen auch wenn er nicht perfekt war! 

Dankeeee an alle Menschen die dabei waren, an die großartigste Artist Care <3 an meinen lieben @coordese für den emotionalen Support und das Mastering und natürlich an @leeni-rhrn für die Einladung und das Vertrauen das der Sound in die frühen Donnerstag Morgenstunden passen würde <3 Ich hab mich super aufgehoben gefühlt bei euch <3 <3 <3
Und danke an all die wunderbaren Künstler*innen die so tolle Tracks produzieren ♥️

Sonnenaufgang über´m Sonnendeck @ Fusion Festival 2023

We all know this moment - you are lying in bed with a loved one on a Sunday and the world stands still.

You put on some music to set the scene for rising temperatures under the sheets…

The set you put on suddenly brings you out of rhythm, but getting up to skip the track is no longer an option.

We have been scouting for the perfect Sunday morning sets for quite a while already and while "Eigentlich heissen wir Klaus" & "Mattmosphere" have been steady suppliers of them for us, we also developed the idea of asking befriended artists to record one hour of music, to which they like to stay in bed with a loved one.

It's an intimate ask, but most of them said yes.

@duygu_music is a resident from our @love-foundation family and she created a beautiful journey for those Sunday mornings that we love.

For the perfect cuddling experience @ueberhaupt_ausserdem did the mastering of the set, just for that little extra nudge of pleasure <3 

So grab your special person, get cosy, press play and get ready to let the love birds fly ❤️

The story to this live recording

Marina (@maaje_music) and Duygu first met at a festival earlier this year. They stayed connected and Marina invited Duygu to play at Havre de Perche at Anwesend.

After they both had played their sets they thought „Wait a minute, our sounds could match beautifully, do you wanna try a b2b?“

And so it came that after the official program was over for the night they started to play at 6 in the morning thinking let’s try and play for ourselves a little bit. “A little bit” became a 9 hour ride that they both enjoyed very much. They matched perfectly and dancers started to join the spontaneous after hour. After a while Marina asked Duygu if they should press the record button but that it might be too late because they had been playing for quite a while at that point. They thought it might not be worth it because they would stop soon. The button was pressed anyway and luckily they didn’t stop for another 5 hours. So now there is a memory in form of a recording of that beautiful morning. And noon. And afternoon. At some point the power went off so here are the two hours before that.

We hope you enjoy as much as we did <3

Dear Tiger friends, our next podcast comes from Maria Theresia von Eberg. As a promoter and part of Afterhour Sounds, she is an integral part of the downtempo scene. The set is a recording from the Abstrakt Club and as a little extra Marie has written us a poem <3 

Have fun with Striped #15 

„Dunkel war’s, die Sonn schien heller, 
Beat-bedeckt die dunkle Flur,
als die finster/-Bande mit gleißend greller 
Laune rief Tumult hervor.

Drinnen tanzten schwebend Leute,
Still ins Klanggespräch vertieft,
Als dort lang verstummte Ekstase
Völlig aus dem Ruder lief.

Das verzweifelt-fröhlich Jauchzen,
Drang hinaus ins Frühlingslicht,
Frohlockte mit vertrauten Bässen,
Dabei doch mit neu’m Gesicht.

Bunt erstrahlt im roten Schein,
Als Traumkulisse für (sparkling) Wine
Der Salon, um fein zu flanieren,
Realität & Sorgen zu pausieren.

Klänge von Aufbruch, Hochzeitsfeierei,
Und längst vergess’nen Oldie-Heiteitei,
Denn heut sei uns nur Spaß Programm, 
Mit guter Laune & Ramtamtam.“

Diesmal gibt's nen spezial Tape für die Ohrlis!

Mit viel Herzschmerz schwärmt dieses musikalische Stück von vergangenen Zeiten. Die Gedanken an nie zu vergessende Raves, wunderbarste Erinnerungen an wirklich gute Nächte und auch Tage, machen diesen Mix zu etwas Besonderem.

Im Wanderkant-Style wird das aufgearbeitet, was einem ans Herz gewachsen is.

How heavy is a soul? Or how light? And where do you find it? Hidden in our deepest chambers or in the glow that shines through the cracks? 
While music probably can’t answer these questions for you, it may help you dive into them, providing an anchor, a guiding light and sometimes an helpful ache, an echo from that infinite depth that pulls us on. 
Ektoplast has assembled a questionnaire about the human condition, a fragmented, powerful vision and a scattered map of our longing, held together by his musical handwriting and an steadfast beat, that provides a dry, grounding pulse to carry us through this night.

The result of combining multiple high-quality VSTs into one seamless arrangement, bringing you a true luxury masterpiece. I’m happy, enjoy.

Runway Reverie

The musical piece combines elements of electronic to create an energetic soundscape. Its emotional impact is characterized by its upbeat and danceable rhythms that are often driven by the beat of the music. The overall vibe is laid-back and relaxed with a hint of soulfulness or sadness in some parts.
