For the sixteenth episode of our Herbarium mix series, we invited Endurance (@joshua-stefane), the label owner of @muzaneditions. He is a master when it comes to exquisit ambient journeys and therefore we are very happy to feature one of his beautifully told stories. 

For this mix he chose Chrysanthemum. Here is why:
I chose the chrysanthemum as the flower for this mix - specifically the Chrysanthemum / morifolium hybrid species, which originated in China and is also popular in Japan. Aesthetically, I think it is one of the most beautiful flowers, with its multitude of florets radiating from the center, or cascading down like willow branches, depending on the type. I love how such flowers can feel so complex and deep, simply through the arrangement of similar elements - and that is something that guided this mix. Using tracks from artists I love, old sound effects records from the 60s and 70s, and my own live improvisations and field recordings, I tried to layer similar or repeating elements over each other to create a complex and cohesive whole. Thank you for listening.

Emika joined Art Bei Ton a couple of years ago and has been delivering since then amazing music at our events. Her project Human Lesson has been attracting some of the most talented deep artists in the techno scene.

She recorded for us today a downtempo, relaxing and introspective mix filled with dark tones and intricate rhythms.

Enjoy!

More info about Emika Elena:

Emika Elena is a Berlin based DJ/producer and founder of HumanLessons.

Music has always been a huge part of her life, ever since she started playing piano in her family home at the age of 4, but it was the discovery of techno in her early teens that led her to become a DJ.
 
Her trademark sound is often described as "hypnotic darkness" which intersects expressions of ambient, experimental, and techno in her mixes.

She is breaking out of standards and creating a new feeling of deepness and true creativity. You can hear her authenticity carrying you to the spheres of your inner soul.

o.utlier (Titrate / London)
o.utlier(아웃라이어)는 영국에서 활동중인 아일랜드 출신의 일렉트로닉 뮤지션이다. 그는 프로덕션과 퍼포먼스 전반에 걸쳐 전자음과 어쿠스틱 사운드를 결합한 사운드스케이프를 통해 청취자의 깊은 각성 상태를 유도하는 방식을 즐긴다. 날렵한 타악기와 반짝거리는 신디사이져 소리는 물론, 거친 드론과 필드 레코딩에 이르기까지 다양한 사운드 팔레트를 활용하여 만들어지는 o.utlier의 수수께끼 같은 사운드스케이프는, 어떤 맥락에서든 항상 밀도 높은 분위기와 침착한 전달력으로 뇌를 자극하는 의식적인 여정을 만들어낸다.
o.utlier의 음반은 그동안 Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE]와 같은 레이블에서 발매되었으며, 보다 실험적인 작품을 발표하기 위해 Titrate Records [UK]를 공동 운영하고 있다. 2023년 9월에는 그의 데뷔 앨범인 Alaya가 발매되었다.

o.utlier is an Irish electronic musician based in the UK who  creats soundscapes that combine electronic and acoustic sounds throughout his productions and performances to induce a deep state of alertness in listeners. Utilizing a diverse palette of sounds, ranging from sharp percussion and shimmering synths to harsh drones and field recordings, o.utlier's enigmatic soundscapes create a conscious journey that stimulates the brain, always with a dense atmosphere and calm delivery in any context.
o.utlier's recordings have been released on labels such as Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE], and he co-runs Titrate Records [UK] to focus on experimental works. In September 2023, his debut album called 'Alaya' has released.

Oslated Universe Live 07 - Menou

"This is a DJ set recorded on November 25, 2022 at Forestlimit in Tokyo.

I really like that when I listen to music, when I close my eyes and concentrate on the sound, I get the feeling that various things, such as sound particles and waves, are entering me. It feels very comfortable as it feels like you are facing your own feelings. 

Knowing who you really are is very important, and it's almost like a theme in life. When I make music or play a DJset, I want to help people relax and take time with themselves."
