Let's welcome back our dearest @cafe-de-la-jungle to the thirteenth episode of our Herbarium mix series. We are still swaying in hot memory of our recent QEONE x On Board Music night at OHM Berlin and feel that this mix mirrors some bits of his groovy side which he presented back then.

Cafe de la Jungle chose the Monstera Deliciosa for his musical journey here.
What he says about the connection between this plant and his mix: 
The monstera plant's ability to thrive in the rich variety of the jungle, from shadowy undergrowth to sunlit clearings, mirrors my versatile view of electronic music inside the mixtape. Just as the monstera effortlessly adjusts to its surroundings, my mix weaves a sonic journey that spans an array of electronic music genres, from the slow dubby beginning thru more high-energy rhythms towards the melodic end. 
The plant’s adaptability and resilience find reflection in the the mixtape's capacity to traverse musical terrains, providing listeners with a multifaceted journey through the electronic music jungle.

Herbarium No 13 - Cafe de la Jungle - Monstera Deliciosa

As the year winds down, we wanted to send you off with a bang – a deep, rumbling bang delivered straight from the Utrecht underground by the one and only Vand. We've known this sonic sorcerer for ages, watching him transform from a bright Dutch talent to an artist whose output has been recognized and cherished in underground scenes worldwide. 

Over the years, Vand has made a reputation for himself as a producer who is equally prolific working alongside like-minded piers like Bas Dobbelaer, Alfred Czital, and Shoal, as well as working solo where he conjures deep, dubby adventures that twist and turn like Escher sketches, always one step ahead of the dancefloor drone.
Releases on labels like Something Happening Somewhere, Nyame, Alpenglühen, Harmony Rec, and Konstrukt speak for themselves. 

Speaking of labels, Vand just launched ISOTOOP, a sonic beacon birthed from the ashes of a great event collective (initially founded by Van Anh and featuring Ben Buitendijk, Shoal, and Koen Hoets). Their debut, a Vand & Shoal juggernaut called Voal, has been on heavy rotation in our HQ and has found its way to crates of many DJs worldwide.

With that fresh fire in our ears, we present you with Vand's mix for us – a darkroom dub journey built for late-night explorations. Buckle up because this isn't a stroll in the park; it's a 200km/h Autobahn voyage on cruise control, smooth as silk yet peppered with enough twists and turns to keep your heart hammering. Deep bass dives will massage your soul, dubby echoes will swirl around your head, and when you think you've got it figured out, Vand throws in a curveball that'll leave you grinning like a Cheshire cat.
This mix is a reminder that the best journeys often take you to unexpected places. And hey, who knows what 2024 holds for Vand and ISOTOOP? One thing's for sure: we'll be right here, front row and center, ready to lose ourselves in the sound.

If I'm not mistaken, it's been 7 1/2 years since I last made and shared a 'techno' mix. Despite a few years away from the scene, and a less techno-dedicated approach to buying records these days, the idea of putting something together has been niggling at me for a while. I had in mind a deep, mid-paced journey inspired by some of the festivals that I've attended in the last few years.

The tracklist isn't an exercise in wilful obscurity (there's hardly anything released in the last 12 months!), and I nearly abandoned it due to some scruffy transitions, but life's too short to obsess over such things!

Velvet Podcast _ 001 - Vanda

"Lost In The Cavern" is something I've been working on for quite a while now. In the middle of putting project aside and downright throwing them out, this one miraculously made it to the light of day! I can't express how much I love this EP, crafting it was total fun and craziness at the same time, a lot more works similar to this one are coming soon so keep an eye open!
