The Architect roams the lower levels only to find familiar corridors leading somewhere else entirely. Doorways open to impossible landscapes, buildings breathe, and time inside the city no longer matches the clocks. Reality is melting into dream logic — and no one seems to notice but him.

The Architect has been wandering for days, though time has lost its grip here. In this place, streets rearrange themselves when you look away. He passes a corner bakery and, seconds later, finds it replaced by an open shore where waves hiss against cobblestones. No one seems alarmed. People walk as if nothing changes — their smiles faint, their eyes slow to blink — as if they’ve already made peace with living inside a dream.

The city feels alive, but not in the way machines live. It breathes, shifting with the rhythm of an unseen sleeper. Doorways lead to places that could not exist: a stairwell descending into clouds, an elevator that opens to a forest in autumn, a library whose shelves are lined with the names of people who haven’t been born yet.

The Architect begins marking his path with chalk on the walls, but each mark fades within moments, erased by the city itself. It’s as if the place resists permanence, as though it doesn’t want to be mapped — or remembered.

One night, under rain that tastes faintly of the sea, the Architect hears a voice from a window above: “It’s not the city that’s dreaming… it’s you.” The shutters close.

He stands in the empty street, unsure whether to move forward or to wake up — if waking up is still possible.

“Cities Made of Sleep” depicts a dreamlike, unstable world where urban landscapes shift, dissolve, and rewrite themselves, blurring the line between memory, illusion, and reality. Streets vanish, towers turn to grass, oceans appear and fade, and even names and maps cannot hold their place, suggesting a city that is alive, fluid, and indifferent to human attempts at permanence. The inhabitants, numbed to the constant transformations, accept the unreality as normal, while the narrator resists, trying to hold onto meaning in a place where nothing endures. 

The final twist — “it’s not the city that’s dreaming, it’s you” — reframes the disorientation as a projection of the self, making the city both a metaphor for the subconscious and a mirror of fragile human perception.

Steph Copeland - Nadia (NEW)

I was making this instrumental, and a strange mouse mistake made me drop an acapela track from "Bounty Killa - Dead Zone"  instead of a crash sample!
Here is the result, one of the best mouse rip i ever experimented, I think Mr Random is the best artist to collaborate with :)

Space Coast [Feat Mobb Deep & Bounty Killa]

We are proud to present you a compilation of the best tracks of the Athens based Trip Hop duo The Blue Square.
Limited ed. 12" vinyl in red or black colour: http://bit.ly/2fo1wbQ
All platforms: http://smarturl.it/thebluesquare

Conceived in Athens, Greece, The Blue Square is the duo of Radim (Vasilis Sourais) and Radical (Christos Volotas) who have come together with a love of noir atmospheres, old spy films, and dusted, jazzy beats. Since their beginnings in 2010, The Blue Square have been making waves with their explorations into instrumental hip hop, nu-jazz, and trip hop, and earned slots DJ’ing alongside Wax Tailor, ASM - A State Of Mind, Bonobo, and Gramatik. Paul Cheeba of Morcheeba is also a fan, premiering a track by The Blue Square on the widely listened to Trip Hop Nation podcast.

The pair’s self-titled debut album – and their first release on vinyl – has been issued by Greek label Melting Records and delivers heaps of cinematic vibes and crucial rhythms. The Blue Square have expressed a desire to create ‘soundtracks for imaginary films’ and their album certainly fits the bill. “Believe’, the opening cut, quickly sets the tone with a heavy lounge feel wrapped in vibraphone melodies, saxophone riffs, and classic beats. “Tic Toc” mashes together a number of styles and sounds, featuring desert guitars, vintage keys, and hip hop vocal drops over some seriously dope drums. “Mama”, with vocalist Esterina, showcases the diversity of the crew, as it’s a deliciously jazzy vocal number that transports the listener to a nostalgic club scene while firmly rooted in its contemporary base.

These are just a few highlights from the eleven track album, and the different moods and sounds provide an infectious ‘sonic film’ from The Blue Square’s imagination. Dive in and drift away.

ANKO "WAVED" FULL EP

Darkside - The Lonely

Komoriuta

After a long hiatus, we are delighted to announce the ninth part of our flagship compilation - We Got it in Nature. This is by far the most diverse volume we curated. 23 tracks full of surprises, that will take you on a journey through colours of downtempo. 

The album starts with a climatic accent and does not abandon the tone until the very end. Again, We have the pleasure to listen to songs from our old friends. Again, We are pleased to introduce fresh tracks from our new friends. This is the whole quintessence of this series. The ninth volume represents the quality of WeGrowWax in full splendour. No fillers. The compilation will neatly guide your senses through this intriguing story 

Trip-Hop -> Electronica -> Hip-Hop -> Chill-out...Here is the path that We Got it in Nature 9 takes. Of course, this is a fairly general statement, because the flavour here presented is not what one can measure. We are sure that you will stay here longer, and these songs will be worthy of accompanying you in the conquest of reality.
