F-on, the alias of Alfonso Pomeda, is known for his profound progressive sessions with long mixes, creating voyages through experimental music, ambient, and dubby techno. His productions are 4x4 experiments at a low tempo, incorporating field recordings, timbres, textures, and cinematic structures. He is a resident at Alpenglühen and Taiga sessions and co-owner of the label Antimatter. Additionally, he runs the Alpenglühen label, which focuses on deep and ambient techno, exploring the line between light and darkness.

Mareena, the founder of Unrush, met Alfonso at the Mostra Festival in Barcelona un 2023. Their connection through music was immediate, making it natural to invite him to Unrush…

Grandma's Dub Bag

We are extremely happy to feature a dear friend from our home city of Munich, @samgoku, in this 20th episode of the Herbarium mix series. He is such a colourful artist as his specialty is to combine multiple genre styles and create an organic conceptual journey with these gems. This also applies to this beautiful mix which he put together for us. He deep dives into precious harmonious textural ambient, tribal rhythms and catchy melodic instrumental references.

About Sam Goku's choice of plant: 
The 'Epiphyllum oxypetalum', or 'queen of the night', blooms only once a year. Its flower opens at night and closes again before sunrise. There is also one growing on the staircase at my parents' home – it’s a mix that feels special and close to home at the same time.

About Sam Goku

It is a satisfying experience when an artist manages to create a modern sound by implementing what makes dance music so dearly appreciated amongst enthusiasts: Blended noises, repetition and some cheeky, unexpected madness.

Sam Goku does that in his productions - with a sleek straightforwardness that one would not expect from a rather hypnotic beat.

While appearances in some of Europes most established clubs and his eclectic set at the final rendition of Secret Garden Party put him on the map, he has never stopped to refine his skills as a mixer and selector.

He skilfully plays his way through myriads of subgenres and microcosm in the realm of (leftfield) house, techno and bass music, developing sets that are equally characterized by buoyant ease and yet great depth in the rhythmic, melodic and sonic details.

EMC welcomes Joan Gila!

Joan Gila, a vinyl enthusiast, is the curator of @hoc-radio and also manages a small cassette label focused on ambient, avant-garde, and experimental music called @red-edge-label. He is part of the duo @binomi with his friend @slim-jordi.
This DJ set was recorded in Madrid at the Temple event, curated by @machines-desirantes and @javier-camunas, which takes place at @espacio-perpendicular, an intimate venue with exquisite sound. This particular set is Temple 03 featuring @hardcore-chillout, and it's an exercise in mixing and merging an older record from around the 80s with a new one, playing with them in such a way that the listener doesn’t know where they are. 

Enjoy!

Richard Akingbehin @ Draaimolen x Sustain Release, Tilburg - May '24

A fittingly lush mix filled with dusty, wobbly perfection from the lovely Helsinki based @suskidj this week.

I met Suski when she warmed up for me the first time I played at Post Bar in Helsinki a few years ago - a place i've returned to a few times and truely adore! Suski is a resident at the much-loved Helsinki club. I was initially drawn to her dj'ing as the set she played as a warm-up in Post Bar was a pitch-perfect and contextually divine fit for the space & time. 

This mix is a poignant follow up - diving through through the rich textures of immersive techno, and an entire journey through the world of electronica & idm with broken beats, ambience and charmingly off-kilter percussive rhythms.

Thanks for the amazing mix Suski <3

Fresh off the release of his outstanding album ‘Berlin’ we welcome Felix K - a true purveyor of sophisticated, deep electronic music. His work explores the fringes of techno, jungle, dub, and ambient, building immersive sound worlds that defy easy categorization. Known for his meticulous approach to production and his ability to weave complex narratives through sound, Felix K has carved out a unique space for himself in the global underground scene.

For this marathon journey, Felix K delivers a masterclass in patience and precision, guiding listeners through a three-hour odyssey that is as introspective as it is rhythmically compelling. The mix is a testament to his expansive musical knowledge and his ability to connect seemingly disparate genres into a cohesive, flowing narrative.

In his own words: "The mix was recorded in my studio in Berlin. Beginning with slower Dub Techno, it slips into the early, minimalist 85/170 Drum-and-Bass era, showcasing plenty of those formative highlights before closing with authentic Amen Breaks combining with a sound design that actually anticipates the vibe of some of today’s darker techno productions."

 Welcome to the Transmissions mix series, featuring sets recorded at our parties at FOLD. 

For our opening mix, we’re delighted to share a recent Steam Room session with the Bangkok-based selector and producer Sunju Hargun. 

For two hours, he delivered a masterclass of immersive, deep and psychedelic techno. And true to style, the set is a seamless flow of intricate rhythms and subtly shifting textures, shadowy grooves and pulsating basslines.  

This mix was mastered in the Area52 Studio.

Producer extraordinaire and sonic explorer Adam Pits graced the Sauna in late Spring with this other-wordly mix that we've had on repeat ever since. Adam's mix evokes feelings best described using his own beautiful and poetic words: 

"Floating. Suspended by waves of sonic bliss reverberating to the heartbeat of the universe. As the never-ending thoughts dim, the soul grows, knowing that the present moment is all that matters. And in that knowing, the warm embrace of all that is good takes root."

Adam Pits | Ambient Sauna | July 25

This week’s interpretation of Far Blue comes from Berlin-based DJ and Refuge Worldwide and Kynant Records co-founder Richard Akingbehin.

Known for his dub-influenced sound, he takes a faster, techno-oriented approach here, showing a more driving side of Far Blue. Recorded live this summer at Field Maneuvers Festival, the mix balances between energy and depth. Faster motion, still floating.

A Far Blue concept by Richard Akingbehin - 'NBHDFM160825'

The Silence That Binds the Lost is a saga carved in breath, not stone. It begins with elders who carried grief in silence—never speaking, only carving memory into ritual. The warband forgot. The child hummed. Ash sang in sleep. A horn broke the sky.

Across twenty tracks, silence becomes flame. Names buried in shame are unearthed. The warband hears again. The elders rise in fire. And the tribe, once fractured, becomes one breath.

This is not an album. It’s a funeral chant. A sacred lament. A mythic inheritance. It binds the lost not with sound, but with silence that burns.

And this is not the final chapter. There are more breaths to carve. More silence to bind. More flame to rise.

You will not leave this unchanged. You will carry it. You will hum it. You will become it.

The Flame That Would Not Die
