Origins Soothers

Presenting *Origins Soothers* - A mix series to heal and repair your sore head after a long night of body movement; expect intricate and ambient-tinged textures, contemporary flavours and atmospheric downtempo from an array of adventurous artists. With these sonic tonics, released every Sunday and paired with three complimentary photos hand-picked by the contributing artists, re-gather your thoughts and replenish your serotonin levels in preparation for the week ahead. Make a cup of herbal tea, pop on your best headphones and be soothed! 

Up first is a sonic sedative prescribed to you by Mister Water Wet. 

“Like getting hit by a set of waves in slow motion, the crash, spray, and splash of the first wave stretched thinner than taffy... salt shards in water droplets dissipate as gravity pulls each back to the whole, into calm before the next crash, "that wasn't so bad," each subsequent wave accepted with less fear and more delight.”

Bringing in a fourth world, celestial mix for Soothers #02, is Mike Smaczylo.

"This mix came up at a great time. After the chaos of recent weeks, and a generally intense few months, I've escaped to Paris to unwind, slow down, and feel a bit more present. My days have been filled with wanderings, drinking tea, and writing under the sun in Park de Belleville. This being said, the mix is more nocturnal in tone, evoking my most tranquil moments: clear nights talking to the moon by a pond near my home in Eccles, lysergic bath times melting into lengthy drone works. There's old and new stuff in there, moody and ethereal bits, zonked out 20+ minute jams. Nothing too jarring, a bit of a rarity for me.” Mike Smaczylo

Soothers #03 is brought to you by Texas-based producer Gi Gi, taking us on a jazz-based journey of skittering rides and cascading woodwinds.

"This one was an exercise in tying together two disparate but interconnected styles: 21st century electronic jazz & a loosely idm-y strain of 90’s downtempo electronic music. The first third or so focuses on the former, the middle bit on the later, & the last section a sort of imprecise blend of the two. I find there’s a parallel in the complexity of the jazz instrumentalists’ performances & the electronic producers’ programming, a virtuosic streak that's balanced with restraint in service of texture & mood. I like how in many of these tracks it’s hard to parse what is organic vs synthetic— a live saxophone recording may be chopped & looped so that it sounds like a sample; likewise, a sample may be smoothed and blended so that you're fooled into thinking it’s a live take. Both of these styles share the sort of tranquil quality you’d associate with “ambient music”, but are (to my ears) a little more engaging or stimulating than your typical static, droning example of the genre due to a heavier emphasis on movement, both rhythmic & melodic. Think of it as a different panel of the ambient umbrella— Active Ambient?”

Soothers #04 is brought to you by Pasta Kebab, who navigates us through a downtempo, tribal mix to add to your relaxation ritual.

"I take pleasure in extracting the calm within a song, when it may seem chaotic at first. I adore the subjectivity in each track, I’m not always a fan of the obvious and I want people to put on their voyeuristic hats and worm through these melodies with me. I’ve navigated these past few months by keeping focused on what matters, I’m constantly evolving, growing and learning how to pause and breathe. I’ve found the sweet spot in my relaxation rituals with these songs combined with the help of my plants, as always, to keep me grounded. The cherry on top of this soothers mix is my final track, Lord Tusk, Space Invaders, a track that my crew always end our night with, and is an absolute soother groover for my mind."

Christian Duka serves us a chill soundtrack of visceral soothing moments for Soothers #05.

"My loved one always says (borrowing from Rick & Morty): “you can’t learn anything until you learn how to chill” - and she’s damn right. Chilling is something I am pretty bad at though. You know, living in London and being slightly enslaved by my passions… but still, there is one place I am able to chill: the space in-between spectral voices, dub-infused grooves and weird & wonderful textures of the likes featured in this cocktail of, personally, very emotional tracks. As I listen, the oomphs and throbs flying out of subwoofers transport me right where stress lives - inside my own body. There, whispering words of comfort to my stiff muscles, I finally take a moment to take care of myself. 

I hope this mix will serve as a soundtrack for many other visceral soothing moments like this - a warm bath, incense and candles are highly recommended :)”

Pascäal serves us a space rock, downtempo soundtrack to help escape daily anxiety for Soothers #06.

"Stress is a funny thing. The more you notice it, the more it envelopes you. Despite multifaceted input mechanisms (it can come from any direction, from any part of your life), it is nearly impossible to divide into buckets and it piles onto itself, overflowing. I allow myself to escape from daily anxiety during periods of transition: the day's beginning and the day's end. This mix is a collection of songs that I use to help me shift my focus from post-dream-early-morning-internal-reality to the day's stress-laden list of to-dos. I hope the listener finds functionality in these songs as well :) <3”

Amelia Tabei produces a new opus, like an old friend coming back from the limbo. The musician is mastering, with his own political views over the esthetic, the art of continuous breathing in his saxophone. At the crossing point between classical and psychedelic intonations, the NTOAB is more that triggered to present you this song named “Diamant”. Like Amelia Tabei is writing himself, this album is dedicated to his grandmothers, his mother, Laure, and the baby marmots.

NAKED GUMS #2: Italy vs. Yugoslavia (w/ Serena)

'Personal quest in exploring the unknown and the familiar, at times dark, at others hopeful, victorious, wonderful. Each 2 months, for 2 hours a time, structured as a series of loosely connected shows, Vanja Rakić interprets a specific topic of choice, in the process excavating sounds from around the world made by those eager to question, and be at odds with the status quo. Embracing the unpredictability, letting go of control and dwelling into alien territory, “naked gums” is here to pose a peak into the alternative, drawing the curious in, and spitting them out on the other side of the tunnel, challenged hopefully.’

From Slobodan Tišma to Teatro Satanico, with Naked Gums #2: Italy vs. Yugoslavia, Serena and Vanja strategically clash the sounds of two nations sharing a reciprocal history made of racism, occupation, forced exodus and territorial claim yet at the same time a big fascination and admiration that lasts in part until today and that resembles a teenage love to which you remain tied forever. Dive into the rabbit hole!
