The Magician is a collaborative prose and ambient piece composed by A. Calin Ion and authored by Sonia Chien. The two sent samples of compositions and writings back and forth over text message, culminating into the final work.  Calin's composition recontextualizes anonymous field recordings of public spaces, abstracting their familiar textures into uncanny, intimate soundscapes. Sonia's prose explores a month of experiences with a stream-of-consciousness approach, skipping between small moments of purpose, aimlessness and all that lies between.

Calin Ion & Sonia Chien - Synthetic Tales - 26/06/25

for this months episode of spiral sonic we invited Australian producer and dj eastern distributor to the show. 

Sitting at the forefront of Australia’s newest wave of psychedelic, percussive and soundscape driven techno and drum & bass, Eastern Distributor has in his growing successes demonstrated a deep reimagining of the worlds that these genres sit in. A dedication to the unseen architecture sitting between these sounds has established his work among fans both at home and abroad – two of them being us here at betonfm. we hope you enjoy this mix as much as we did!

Hagva began in 2022 as a shared experiment between CP1 and Not Mass, artists closely tied to Milan’s Evolvere collective and Stagno Records. What started as a dialogue has grown into a practice of dismantling rhythm and building it back stronger, threading techno through post-club ruptures, industrial grit, and deep ambient undertones. From Evolvere’s underground nights in Milan to RSO Berlin, Module CPH, Buka Milano, Tempovìa, and Zurich’s D.A.S., their sets have carried the same uncompromising edge: a refusal to settle into comfort, constantly pulling dancers into new terrain.

The mix we present today is a three-hour live recording from their set at D.A.S. in Zürich earlier this year, capturing Hagva in full flight. There’s no easing in, it’s a straight leap onto a fast-moving train, powered by relentless percussion and groove, with sudden swerves that snap the floor awake. Heavy, urgent, and unpredictable yet always precise, it’s a reminder that energy doesn’t need excess to be overwhelming. For those hearing them for the first time, it’s the perfect entry point; for those who already know, it’s another layer of proof. With their debut EP arriving September 15 on Stagno Records, this set stands as a clear statement of intent.

IREMTOURFM 03 - Basic Chanel

This week's animix comes from the incredible duo, Atrice (@atricemiras) - a mystical pairing who are part of a pool of insanely talented artists in the small Central European state, Switzerland -  there is a seemingly bursting ratio of talent per capita in this country!.

Drawing inspiration from everyday encounters and digital overstimulation, Atrice's music is refreshing, unique and modern - idm, experimental & bass driven - it somehow also sits perfectly amongst the class & purity of old school & solidified genres like dub, bass, techno - which is seen in their releases on labels like Illian Tape. 

On top of their productions and live sets, Lino & Pablo extend their craft with their on theme DJ'ing - always presenting new & exciting.. and always making perfect sense. For their animix, a beautiful journey through dub and beyond. 

Thanks so much for the mix Lino & Pablo <3

« The urge to squeeze a cloud between one’s palm. »
- Sanary, [Le Monde Toupie], 1942

I threaded the mix as a continuation of this phrase of Sanary I recently read.

Popsicle drip to stalactite. Swim to the surface. Wash off the shore. Drop glide along a wire. Muddled wired thoughts of ours.

Three hours of my favourite Muslimgauze tracks, plus a Boss RE-20 delay pedal, recorded live on 24th September 2025 at Ikii, Berlin.

I was first exposed to Muslimgauze in 2017, when Simon Scott opened the Mungo's HiFi stage of Dimensions Festival with an all-Muslimgauze set*. I'm slightly ashamed to say that at the time it wasn't really my thing, but I was intrigued by the sound and I kept my ears open for more in the years that followed. I imagine I had a similar experience to many who cross paths with his music: I picked up a couple of his albums, but his daunting discography of ~200 releases put me off from digging deeper.

Over the past few months I've put in a determined effort to listen through most of it. I discovered a vast expanse of interesting music, a unique soundclash of rhythm, dub and tape loops, all coloured by Bryn Jones's obsession with the Muslim world. I was pleasantly surprised by how much good stuff there is - while there is a lot of repetition, much of it is genuinely hypnotic. It's also raw, experimental and fiercely political.

To help prioritise my digging, I went through several lists of other people's top Muslimgauze releases. One thing that struck me was how different these lists all were, and how little they intersected with my own favourites in the end. Different listeners clearly come away with entirely different takes from his discography. So while I hope this recording piques your interest, I strongly encourage you to go on your own Muslimgauze digging journey and find your own personal favourites. Thanks to the crew at Ikii for giving me the opportunity to share mine.
