Pink fog rises amidst the hills; dew covers all in silver paint glittering in the background. layers covering layers of low clouds, fog and haze.
Shimmering city lights. Silhouettes of figures sitting in the hills, hanging in bridges, on top of houses, looking upon, observing city drive from up high as if it was a meditating bonfire. A notion of something going to happen. But all that remains is a glimpse of pink fog hanging static in the air.

Risks Issues Opportunities, the third release from berlin based R.I.O. Label brings together a collection of electronic wave music from six different performers with one common ground: their mysterious & slightly melancholic aesthetics.

Houschyar - Melanzani

Tortoise, Goblin, Iron Maiden and the soundtrack to Labyrinth

On labels such as:   Invisible Inc Records // Huntley&Palmers //  Power Station // Gated Recordings // Lunacy // Silver Dollar Club // Higher Hopes // Blue Night Jungle

🌀BIO

Sounds Of Ogigia is Pako Vega's label—a portal into psychedelic soundscapes and the hidden corners of the mind, drawing inspiration from Greek mythology. The label finds its roots in the show of the same name, which aired on Edinburgh’s EHFM from 2018 to 2023. Praised for its dreamy, ritualistic, and otherworldly selections, it captivated listeners and carved out a unique sonic space.

Pako is also the founder of Aquelarre nights at FAB Leith Cricket Club in Edinburgh—gatherings that summon witches and misfits alike, giving the night its raw energy and sonic curiosity.

In the club, Pako's sets are anything but predictable. He drifts between slow, dreamy rhythms and intense, fast-paced beats—always inviting the crowd to lose themselves in the music. It’s a ride through sound, unbound by rules or expectations.

Beyond music, Pako runs Teviand Cinema Club in Edinburgh, a monthly movie night showcasing films with potent aesthetics and surrealist undertones.
