Listen to "Regret" by Jack Ward taken from VA "Aerga Vol. 01" out on 17th November via Ethereal Skies

Pre-order: https://etherealxxskies.bandcamp.com/album/aerga-vol-01

Ethereal Skies are a Dublin based party and platform dedicated to avant-garde electronic music founded by Mark Davis aka darkmavis and Sean Murray debuting our first label release with Aerga Vol 01.

Aerga, aka "the air or the ether" (as Gaeilge) comes in the form of a jam packed VA compilation featuring twenty one up and coming and also established artists from the emerald isle and afar presenting avant-garde and genre bending club music which knows no bounds.

A project planned and developed to traverse the soundscape of alternative club sounds through local Irish artists and friends, the vision of what our Ethereal Skies platform seeks to present to the world musically comes to life. Aerga is a sonic journey that defies genre boundaries, contrasts the new skool with the oldskool and presents the dysfunctional possibilities of electronic music.

Aerga is a spectrum of sounds from ambient dreamscapes, to avant-trance, to breakcore, to experimental pop, to donk, to gabber, to neo-grime, to prog, hard groove and more.

[Premiere] Jack Ward - Regret (Ethereal Skies)

Join Phambinho as he takes you on monthly deep dives into music that should never be described as 'exotic'. But expect a heavy Asian bias.

Phambinho w/ 700 Feel 230124

Usual set up this month, me for the first hour skirting across all things bass and UK techno, little bit of ambient/atmospheric stuff too. Had a lot of fun with this one, covering quite a lot of ground in terms of what was on my USB and playing tunes at all the wrong tempos. Sorry Dual Monitor for playing Level Up about a third as fast as you're meant to.

And then taking over for the second hour, delighted to be able to share with you an hour long mix from Berlin based, 4 person collective: Poems. Formed in 2022, they’ve recently picked up a head of steam curating their first party at Berlin’s OHM night club with Phil in the maze and Cassius Select on the billing. I was first introduced to poems via Derive – an incredible DJ in her own right, someone who can (and does!) literally play anything, all with relative ease. As a collective they're really challenging the norms of Berlin, flirting with weird UK Bass, techno and breaks all on the more experimental side of the spectrum.

Made up of German quartet derive … genus Aix … pesadj ... and dypere, they’ve come together to create a beautifully intense wormhole of a mix.

slung and slow bass music w lots of fizzy bits and echoes, 100-120bpm to warm the club up ahead of henzo's set at flipside. recorded live from the hallowed la cheetah booth and if you listen carefully you'll hear henzo's dub siren towards the end too.

type of music i most love playing in the club atm:))

Here's the last episode of Bad Timing : the show has been jinxed by the devil and will forever drop that name. 
Once more, the show pays attention to weird rhythms trying to tamper with time.
Pépine's magical set in charge of breaking the spell, leaving us with soothed and powerful chakras for the summer.

Bad Timing w/ Pépine [27.06.24]

End of a cycle... They fall, winter, spring, summer... Gates of a city...
Imagine the cycle of seasons
Planes flying in every directions
Up, Down,
Left, Right,
Forward, Backward
From Aéroport Charles de Gaulle to...
Rome?
Tokyo?
Bogota?
London?
Philadelphia?
Valencia?
Where are you going this summer?
An ambient mix to pack you bags with Caroline Shaw, Tojiko Noriko, Brian Eno &ampamp; Doopees fused with recordings of CDG airport...

brutalist poem w/ silver pearl - 4th July 2024

For this month’s Bodyvision West installment, host Gavilán Rayna Russom is joined by “local dj” (artist Adonis Huff who also performs noise as Mercury Symbol) for an hour of party jams with sharp teeth. Bodyvision West is the NYC local offshoot of Gavilán Rayna Russom’s residency show Bodyvision on Mutant Radio Tbilisi. Both shows explore the connections between bodies, sound, memory and knowing.
