moth at Parameter 10

The fourth and final episode of our summer series comes from Somatic Rituals co-founder, Kombé. 

@kombe

The Basel based DJ and Producer channels a deep synergy between polyrhythmic hypnosis and tactile sound design, shaping a sonic landscape that pulses with kinetic urgency.

This mix combines field recordings from Nairobi with sub-heavy mutations, traversing a blend of organic drum patterns that sit in the liminal spaces between bass, percussion, and club experimentation.

𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗶𝘅I wanted to capture the sounds I’m currently into — a blend of organic drum patterns that sit somewhere between techno, bass, and dubstep. While recording, I was listening a lot to T++, whose shifting, intricate rhythms always strike me. The beginning also features field recordings from Nairobi, evoking a kind of big city energy — sometimes soothing, sometimes stressful.

My goal was never just to make functional club tracks, but to tell stories that resonate with me and my friends. The constant exchange with Mafou and Mukuna has probably shaped my music the most.

We’re always drawn to specificity and rhythmic complexity, paired with a sound design–driven approach and a general interest in futurism. The idea is not to repeat what’s been done, but to push electronic music into new territory — music for the heads, for people who enjoy the weird and challenging. A strong identity linked to our fathers’ home continent, Africa, is also at the core of the label.

we’re returning to kune festival today for the third edition in our collaboration where we will be sharing the sets and stories from their fifth edition earlier this year - taking a deeper dive into the scenes, sounds and style of the festival.

this week we’re spotlighting another århus gem and safe distro affiliate, alpo. previously working under the alias ‘the interest’, alpo is another one of those artists who unearths the most beautiful gems and binds them together in a way that wraps you within a spell. from twinkling, blissful downtempo and ambient to the subterranean elements of old school drum & bass and the immersive and bubbly energy of tech house and electro - his mixes has it all! and his opening set on the vessel stage is no different. starting the proceedings on an early thursday evening, alpo’s set is a playful workout of the sound and styles that make up the festival. bridging together all of his influences to create the perfect party atmosphere, the set is an exercise in long-form euphoria.
