Phonons' Seasonal Mixes: Autumn 2013 by Nems-B

What if we never ever endeavor? Recorded on September 6th, 2025.

Ever Endeavor pt1

Continuum: a coherent whole characterized as a collection, sequence, or progression of values or elements varying by minute degrees.

We all have core memories of special dancefloor moments. Audience fully hypnotised, beating as one, lost in the music. Pure instinct, and the wildest spirit within each one shining through. Some artists have an uncanny ability to channel that. And today we present 2 masters at making those moments happen, via Perpendicular Festival 2025. Part of the Ouroboros takeover on Friday night, their performance at the event was one for the books. 

Toé, one of the minds behind EWO collectif and the Ouroboros project, has been mesmerising audiences with some stellar performances. A testament to it was her set just a couple days ago on her home turf, when we witnessed her sorcery at the peak of it's powers. With music that taps into the most feral and primal, it's hard to explain the purity of the feelings she conveys with her mixes. One thing is for sure, Toé has an ability to get your inner animal manifest on the dancefloor. 

Vardae needs no introduction at this point. His releases on Samurai Music or Non Series have established him in that "timeless" space of music creators. One to blame for the expansion on half time and dnb sounds into new psychedelic territory. Vardae is at the very front of a movement that unites breaks, tribe, trancey sounds and techno energy into a new irresistible ritual. His live performance gets better every time, and he turned Ouroboros upside down a couple of days ago. 

Together, you can only imagine what these magicians summon with their sonic potions. And Perpendicular was the cauldron in which their perfect mix took shape. Impossible drum patterns, enchanting atmospheres and their particular flare for transcendental sounds. Combined, these two take their wizardry to the highest levels. 

We couldn't be happier to host these two beloved artists, friends and amazing creatives. Inspiring humans that we always wanted to have in our channel. Infinite gratitude to Melu, Cedric, and the Perpen team for letting us host this piece of musical history. This is HUGE.

The Continuum: Toé & Vardae - Perpendicular 2025

Perpendicular Festival unravels as one continuous thread, bending and reforming across days and nights until the sense of time itself begins to dissolve. From Friday afternoon to the first pale hints of Monday light, the forest carries a constant flux of sound, shifting from floor-focused intensity to moments of near-weightless suspension. The turning point comes when the moon hovers over the DJ booth on the main stage and the current draws inward: La Cabaña, a wooden cabin hidden among the pines, becomes the gathering place for music at its most unguarded and exploratory. Here, reality softens, and performances take the shape of dreams.

It was in these hours between Friday and Saturday that STBL opened the portal. His set arrived quietly, almost imperceptibly, whispers in the air, static drifting like dust in moonlight. Slowly, harmonies began to shimmer and unfold, shadowed by pads that seemed to stretch toward some unreachable horizon. Beneath it all, a subtle rumble grew, reassuring, like company long imagined finally appearing at your side. Nothing felt rushed; each sound seemed to wait for the moment it was meant to reveal itself.  

The power of the set lies in its restraint, in the way it suspended time and quietly rewrote it in the minds of those present. A moment like this resists fading; it lingers, carried forward as a story that will be told again and again.

Delayed x Perpendicular: STBL (live)

To me, this mix is every bit as nostalgic as the Radio 1 Essential Mix shows of the 90s, and I've listened to it more times than I can count. Will mixed this in March 1999; while I lay in an extremely spaced-out heap in his student house in Tottenham. Even more impressive is that this was one of those grab & go mixes where he included records we'd just bought. This mix is typical of the evening sessions we'd have before heading out to the likes of Lost, The End and the Velvet Rooms.

Artisan Dub Soup - IV

In my mind, Jamie has curated some of the finest and most elegant deep dub and immersive ambient music and to achieve it so consistently is truly impressive.   Particularly with his Silent Season project, I was introduced to many new producers with some of those then becoming part of my Verdant Recordings family.   

We've exchanged music and thoughts since the early releases of SS but this is the first time i've hosted a set on this cloud so undoubtably, this is a very special moment for me. 

I wanted "Dub Soup" to present music from across and beyond the dub techno spectrum and this set fulfills those aims superbly....    Thank you!

Please share, comment or request some Ids.   The tracklisting is whispering through the forests of Vancouver Island and expected soon.

Artisan Dub Soup VI - Jamie McCue

From the forthcoming album 'Part of the Picture' from Will You. 

13 tracks that showcase the slower, more introspective side of my production. Lots of ambient tracks and a few excursions into deep house and techno. Ideal for long journeys, home listening and rainy autumn evenings.

Premiere: Will You - Tellisford Loop [Oleeva]

Cloud Bloom

Volume was a one-day event held at Auditorium San Fedele in Milan on October 10, 2025. Conceived in memory of Loris Moretto and on the occasion of his birthday, it brought together artists, friends and sound. A gathering built from frequencies, echoes and silence - a collective act of listening. Volume is the measure of sound, the space it fills and the energy it leaves behind.
The program featured a DJ set by Luca Renton, Simone Merli and Eli Imsirovic (Concentric Records and E/Tape), followed by the screening of the film "Messengers" (2022-ongoing, 23'51'') by Rebecca Salvadori and a unique live performance by Tobias Freund (Tobias.) called "Semblance of Nature"
