Raised in the underground music scene of Buenos Aires, recent years have seen Blume (@keinblume) continue to hone her vision in Europe - first in Amsterdam and now Berlin. With a complex approach to beat programming, hip-hop inspired use of samples and a melding of odd melodies and experimental textures, her sets are distinctive, technical and enthralling in equal measure. 

A passionate contributor to the scene, Blume hosts the bi-monthly show "The Otherness" on @noodsradio, and runs the record store Format Wars, which provides her with another channel to express her unique tastes - from lavish ambient to bracing jungle and beyond. Originally a digital shop, Format Wars will move into a physical space in early December 2022. 

Blume’s Patterns of Perception 104 is an homage to a multitude of formative moments in Berlin: indelible, visceral musical experiences that have shaped her vision and being. 
Crystal clear reflections of hazy sequences in which the unexpected became the norm. An emotional connection of disparate times as unfettered energy warps into mind-bending experimentation. Sharp polyrhythms expanding out of mesmerising, high-speed techno trips. Endless energy and motion. 
This mix reflects the feeling and eclecticism of odd Berlin nights - the discovery, the euphoria and the memories that never die.

We´re closing the month with 2 sets recorded live at Perpendicular Festival last May plus a live performance by Ameeva performed at Espacio Perpendicular the next week.
Every year in a forest  In the centre of Spain there is a private meeting limited to 180 people with the same purpose as Espacio Perpendicular: the pure enjoyment of underground music. The first live act is by STBL, a wonderful journey that explores subtle ambient territories; after him, Paduan, resident dj at Into the universes parties in Amsterdam, and regular one at Balamii radio in London, carries out a well-driven drone and experimental ambient set. The last hour is for a live performance by Ameeva. A delicate and smooth journey with gentle and hidden melodies, field recordings and ASMR voices

R1BS - It Ain’t Me ( Free DL )

Maryam, by Les Étoiles Pastel. Four new songs make up the 23-minute EP inspired by female Ascended Masters and Goddesses. Clarinet and synth now trademarks, it is calm but also able to shake with tempo changes, while maintaining the verve of an electronic Gong Bath. Melodies performed and recorded in the Parma hills in June, reworked in November in Paris. Les Étoiles Pastel denotes itself as an avant-garde project in modern transcendental music, the Maryam EP denotes an acquired development of maturity compared to the debut Self-Titled. A clarinet melody acts as a witness between the two records, like the feeling that certain sounds come from a metaphysical dimension.

✨Don’t miss it!

“In a year that has been exhausting, confusing, and frustrating for us all, I've rarely had the mindset to listen to or produce anything that is high-energy or aggressive. I've basically not listened to a DJ set that is dancefloor-aimed since April of 2020 when everyone was doing livestream events. My mind these days is far more interested in keeping it deep and calming, more for the meditative state than the excited state. Again I find myself in the deeper corners of my record shelves for this all-vinyl mix of world-building soundscapes and dubby cave exploration. Enjoy!” - Eric Cloutier.
