Ambient

'i remember' edit

Bill Kouligas is the mind behind one of modern electronic music's greatest and most innovative labels, PAN. His remarkable ear for music meant that he released some of the earliest records from luminaries like Yves Tumor, Helena Hauff and Eartheater, helping to jumpstart several remarkable careers. And each PAN release is lovingly and lavishly packaged like an art object in itself, an approach you can read more about in this month's feature-length cover story.

The Berlin artist's RA Podcast is an audio companion to that cover story, and it underlines not only Kouligas's range as a label A&R but also as a DJ. Reflecting the label's evolution from straight-up noise to musique concréte to leftfield dance music and then avant-pop, the mix cycles through stages of strange, staggered beats, almost celestial ambient music, passages of overwhelming noise and sound that sublimate into floating clouds before solidifying back into club music, and a couple engaging spoken word passages and endless manipulations of the human voice. In other words, it sounds a lot like PAN.

Bluebird 

At nightfall, his senses alert to the shifting between wakefulness and dreams. Lost in reverie, he dreamed of fireflies, their soft glow offering a flicker of hope in the darkness.

Recalling Memory I: He reflected on fragments of his father’s tales—the legend of the Bluebird, a symbol of adventure and possibility. Memories of their shared moments filled him with warmth as he embarked on his odyssey to find this holy creature, leaving behind the familiar streets of his hometown. 

Recalling Memory II: A shared laugh with his mother, her voice became a comforting presence amidst the play of carillons against the wind and the uncertainty of what’s ahead.

It didn’t take him long to realise that the Bluebird was not merely a destination but a journey—a journey woven with memories, dreams, nostalgia, and the relentless pursuit of hope and tranquility.

Viva el Amor



Long Live Love.

we breathe for it, for the awe,

for the warmth of belonging,

the holy moment of listening,

together.

A tickle in the heart 

by the silence of the desert.

Love is communication,

and language is a bridge:

between you and me,

from us to all of you,

everything and everybody

in connection.



Love is the spice,

from intoxicating romance 

to communing with the forest,

the soft love of coming home,

of a deep breath,

and the pain, darkness and loss.

It is all of it,

and more.



Viva.

El.

Amor.

My Eyes Might Leak

this is my most ambitious project to date and i spent a good amount of time working on this! this is my first actual album under this new name that doesn't include any tracks from my previous self.. this album dives into my mental state and how i feel most of the time + this album is the last project i'll release before i start my life as a "non-teen" experience in life.

after this releases, i'm gonna evolve into a new person, abandoning my past self and my mistakes to become a new and better version of myself.

thank you, everyone who stayed around for this moment! <3
