With "Vivarium", Vienna-based live duo Mitra present their debut release and their first contribution to IO Records. Known for their immersive performances and site-responsive sound explorations, Mitra translate the raw intensity and spatial awareness of their live practice into a studio recording for the very first time.

The seven-track EP unfolds as a carefully composed sonic ecosystem. Each piece functions as a distinct organism within a living structure, contributing to a sound world that feels both precise and unpredictable. Rooted in deep listening, low-end exploration, and rhythmic subtlety, Vivarium invites audiences into an environment that is in constant transformation.

Rather than relying on fixed arrangements or traditional song structures, the tracks evolve gradually. Textures shift, patterns emerge and dissolve, and moments of stillness meet waves of tension. While firmly grounded in experimental sound design, Vivarium also reveals a sense of physicality and movement. The duo’s background in their live act is present throughout, channeling the energy of their performances into compositions that retain their organic, tactile quality.

Vivarium is more than a debut. It is an invitation to enter Mitra’s sonic world. It is a space shaped by intuition, presence, and the fluid relationship between listener, sound, and environment. With this release, Mitra opens a new chapter in their artistic trajectory, offering a compelling glimpse into the evolving potential of their sound.

IO:034 || Mitra - Vivarium

The fourteenth podcast. The first artist on the 2025 gathering lineup. When the idea for this podcast was first developed, showcasing Sardinian DJ's was always something we wanted to accomplish. There is a natural harmony between the environment here and this style of music. It is something that is difficult to articulate. The ambience lends itself to the hypnotic, organic, profound tones. The landscape mirrors the sheer, rugged, illusive elements of deep techno. The lapping sea emulates the constant, unerring yet unpredictable facets. 

One artist who in our minds captures the very essence of all of this; with consistently top quality releases, classy mixes and a genuine, friendly and approachable character, is Save Your Atoll, who we are thrilled to welcome to the Out Of Focus Podcast. 

We are also overjoyed to announce @SaveYourAtollofficial as the first name on our lineup for Out Of Focus Gathering 2025, an event that grants the opportunity to come and witness the harmony between this place and this music.

Today's mix is grounded in pace and energy. Rhythmic elements intertwine to invoke an unyielding urge to move. Ever present is the push and pull, the tension and release, poised expertly to give the listener relief at the exact moment you need it. Whatever mood you carry with you when you press play on this mix, I assure you will feel re-energised by the end.

The fifteenth. The next artist on the 2025 gathering lineup. Audio Cla, a DJ and producer based here in Sardinia, presents a mix to hypnotize and mesmerize from the very first moments until the last fading frequencies. Relentless in it's energy, a true torrent that keeps us locked in and listening, enraptured in Audio Cla's selections. Peaks and troughs take us through diverse shades of spellbinding sound, keeping the mind reeling and the feet firmly *off* the ground. 

We're also very excited to welcome Audio Cla to the 2025 edition of the Out Of Focus gathering and for him to share his vision with us and the mountainous Taccu of Osini in September. On the 27th of September we invite you all to this gathering celebrating a fusion of sound and nature, where both Sardinian and international sonic artists will share their unique perceptions of this place.

For more those wanting more of Audio Cla's signature hypnotic and deep textures, keep an eye out for his debut album, Termorestringente, which will be released very soon.

Kokzen es un artista con dilatada experiencia en las cabinas y como promotor. Desde muy joven se sintió interesado por la música electrónica y allá por el año 1997 tuvo su primer contacto con unos platos. 
Es el fundador de Sinexsia, y actualmente se encuentra involucrado también en el proyecto Prisma en Sevilla.

Con esta sesión potente y ecléctica puso el broche final en esta edición de Sinexsia, predominando el techno, pasando por el electro y ritmos rotos, baile asegurado.

The sixteenth. An all vinyl mix and the third artist announced for the Out Of Focus 2025 gathering. 

One for getting lost in. Between the dissonance, the mystery and the cacophony, a pulsating energy provides a reliable constant. A mix showcasing the unrelenting yet contemplative shade of deep techno. Steeped in atmosphere and fluttering rhythms, a thoughtful arrangement of tracks selected for their unwavering energy. 

It is with great pleasure that we welcome O3SIDIAN to the Out Of Focus 2025 gathering. Join us in tacchu this September to witness a live Techno masterclass from the Sardinian born, Finland based artist.

Clarence Rise is a French producer, DJ, and live artist exploring the intersections of Deep & Hypnotic, DnB, and Ambient. His sound design is organic and textured, shaped by intricate and subtle nuances. Carefully crafted yet instinctive, his productions drive you where sweat meets precision.

Guided by a deep connection with nature and the complexities of the psyche, his music shifts between darkness and light, sometimes raw and powerful, sometimes introspective and fragile. Each performance and release is a pursuit of emotion in its purest form, carried by intent and subtle intensity.

Merci, Clarence.

Lett Records Podcast Invites JAFADAN

Half of boundary-pushing production outfit Voices From The Lake and co-founder of Spazio Disponibile, Neel is an Italian producer with a keen ear for complex, enveloping sonics; his ample, elegant pieces of music sitting right at the junction of beatless abstraction and intricate webs of electronic pulsations. Boasting his works’ most dynamic side, Neel’s debut transmission on RYC ushers us into a smouldering pit of molten steel and glassy membranes. Playing with echoes and latency as he builds his own multi-sensory experience out of eclectic fragments, Neel transports us to a zone where movement and inertia rule in concerted harmony, and your suddenly weightless body feels eventually free from today’s iteratively chaotic burden. Uplifting.

The seventeenth. An entry from Out Of Focus co-curator @picnic-it.

A mix both diverse and wandering, we depart with bouncy, organic infused electronica, lighter textures slowly intensifying as the palette develops. The middle of mix finds its stride in some deeper, darker, resonant tracks. Rolling and revolving, the senses blur as the cycle grips our auditory senses. Finally, the listener is pulled back out of the hypnotic haze, stronger sounds of storytelling return to the forefront to reassert the groove, with haunting vocals and strings bidding the listener a final farewell.

GTG Premiere | Translate - Closer Objects [R/EVA001]

The eighteenth. This weeks entry coming from the talented @nemsb, who's crafted a genre-warping one and half hour journey through their vision of sonic space.

This twisting, morphing mix leads the us gently into an array of diverse soundscapes; each track presenting a unique motif, a new surprise around each corner rounded. Vocals pieces are dispersed elegantly throughout, never overpowering, instead deepening the palette of the mix, outlining the established vision with dashes of strong defining color.

After riding the line somewhere between dub and deep techno, with moments of detroit infused energy throughout the mix, the final tracks deliver some darker textures as we feel like the lights darken and we become fully immersed, lost in the finished canvas.
