Nachtblumen Podcast #25 Severja

DJ, composer and label manager of Accents Records, Sub Accent work mainly with analog and modular instruments.
He borrows codes from conventional club music as well as elements from the grammar of nature. His music traces shapes and textures that bring up both physical and mechanical phenomenons : thus you can hear different aspects of a granitic strate, oscillations and triggers, even the echo of infinite spaces. Dedicated to boldness in terms of rhythm and structures, his compositions remind us the mythic journeys of Detroit pioneers, the tough manners of Rotterdam electro or the experimental tradition of the Sheffield scene.
Besides his contributions to V/A compilations on finest labels like Concrete Records, One Instrument, On Board music, Future Past, WhypeopleDance, He also released EP’s LP’s on Cellar Door, Unheard, Secuencias temporales, Deflection, KVLTO Records...

“The mix was recorded in Melbourne a few days after my experience at Diega, a beautiful outdoor festival, or bush "doof" as Australians call them. The mix is essentially resuming a day in a doof. It starts with slow/chill sounds in the morning, moving towards groovy afternoon euphoria, and finally ending more techno oriented for evening vibes. I want to dedicate this work to the people I spent time with during the last two months I've been touring, in Australia and Asia!”

Severja is a multi-disciplinary artist, DJ and founder of the legendary Midgar records. Not only known for his exceptional label curation and genre-defying versatility behind the decks, he is also responsible for the incredible designs of Monument.

Mariachiara Troianiello, the Italian sound artist behind the moniker Katatonic Silentio, works at the crossroads of electronic music, performing arts and sound studies. Active as a DJ for more than 15 years, her sets adopt multiple forms, fluctuating between an analogue past and a technological, fast-paced future. At times, her sets focus on pure abstraction, consisting of ethereal soundscapes that seek to transcend the tangible through a mix of musique concrète, world, spoken word, ambient or dub. At others, they come across as concrete and club-oriented, crossing techno, broken beats or drum'n'bass.

For MNMT 457, Katatonic Silentio presents this exceptional mix that intricately evolves with subtle and nuanced layers into a delicate yet mind-bending trip of unconventional rhythms and textures. Float into the depths now.
