Hello friends! Here is the recording of my very first set at Stereo Montréal

A place that truly feels like (((home))) 

A room that means so much to many of us and that sparks wonders for those who haven't been yet. A space where we can be free, all together. A spaceship that uses vibrations to bend space and time. A temple where music becomes alive.

It was an honour to have the chance to play in this room for 11 hours to the most amazing group of humans. It's been a dream of mine for so many years to have the chance to play there and it's one of most meaningful moments I ever lived. Stars were aligned, the collective energy was truly beautiful and I am happy to be able to share with you the soundtrack of that night. 

Thanks to all the @stereonightclub team for the incredible work to co-create such a sacred space for music. 

A special thanks to Luc for the cosmic visuals during the night.

And thanks to all of you family and friends who joined the journey.

This is Part One, between 00:00 and 06:08 am.

With love,

Mikael

“On sacred Colombian territory we entered a challenging and rewarding adventure that will help us deconstruct limiting beliefs to access and ignite our authentic self.” (Re-treated)

It was night time and the full-ish moon was smiling down as the river flowed and all the creatures made their distinct sounds. A fire warmed our bodies as music feed our souls. 

Inspired by the human experience that unfolded in a beautiful container surrounded by Mother Nature. This set was a celebration of the journey’s ending … or was it the just beginning ;) I was in a complete flow state, I knew two tracks I wanted to start with and two towards the end. Tunes were pulled from many different pockets of my collection.

On the property was an amazing labyrinth. Our journey and realizations through it weaved their way into this set. I later googled life and labyrinth and found this:  

“Our life path can be viewed as a labyrinth guiding us to deeper meaning and fulfillment. Walking a labyrinth takes us through numerous twists and turns that symbolize the ebb and flow of life. Like the design of a labyrinth, what looks like an end point in life can also be a beginning point.” (link below)

I’m now obsessed with labyrinths!!! Thus the title of this release.

Special thanks to the Re-treated family 001 - “Class” of Feb 2023 - Santa Marta - Colombia! Your love and energy brought this set to life. Eternally grateful to each of you!  

Let’s keep dancing together ❤️💪

Live At Fusion 2023, Panne Eichel, Sunday

Australian DJ /producer Uone is the next guest to step up for a Balance Selections podcast. Known for his fun and energetic DJ sets, Uone has become a regular on lineups for some of the more upfront global festivals and events. With a sound that initially drew on elements from all genres of the electronic sphere, he has now found his niche in producing and playing deep, chunky and twisted tech house - and it is with this resolve that he has managed to carve out a name for himself on the international circuit.

Raised in Melbourne’s Peninsula Coast, demand for Uone's sets has truly transgressed the borders of Australia with invites to play at Burning Man (Nevada), Fusion (Berlin), Glade (UK), Universo Paraleo (BR), Boom (Portugal), Ozora (HU), Eclipse (AUS), and more recently, the Rainbow Serpent Festival in Australia. He will be returning to Europe and the United States for a string of events over the Northern Hemisphere summer which includes Burning Man in the United States, the Secret Garden Party in the United Kingdom, and the Heinz Label Night in Berlin.

Production-wise, Uone has released a steady stream of dance floor weapons which has led to him being signed with Beef Records and Chameleon Recordings, and his array of deep house and techno tracks has found a home on labels like Katermukke, Heinz, Light My Fire and Tonkind Records.

As Uone celebrates his 15th year of Dj-ing, he delivers a mix that is filled with audible nostalgia as he opts for orchestral melodies and percussive blends that signal to the old and new. Watch out for tracks and remixes from a diverse group of artists like Tube & Berger, Loco Dice, Maya Jane Coles, and of course Uone himself – all bookended by a special Balance Intro and Outro which Uone has produced exclusively for this podcast.

Balance Selections 009: Uone

Some words from XLR8R:
"[...] And then there's this podcast. It's one of the most scrumptious, gorgeous sets that XLR8R has run in recent months—which, consider we've hosted mixes from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Audiofly, Dance Spirit, Fort Romeau and Virginia lately, is saying quite a bit. As YokoO explains in the video, the session's emotions run the gamut from joy to sadness, love and loneliness and back again, its soothing passages punctuated with moments of pure drama. In short, it's a musically rich hour of listening pleasure. Our suggestion: Grab a glass of wine (or whatever) and settle in for a while."

The story

XLR8R Podcast 391 - YokoO

La RunkyDunkFunk

"2016 was the fifth consecutive sunrise for me on the Robot Heart bus. It was the first one where a silent and beautifully spread out deck of clouds filled the sky, and played hide and seek with the sun for the first hour after sunrise. I had another amazing morning that I will forever remember. Hope you liked it too, and looking forward to sharing the recording with all of you!" - Scumfrog

Scumfrog - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2016

It was Wednesday night, and anticipation was high. Robot Heart and Mayan Warrior were to link up for the very first time in Burning Man history. So despite it being my third Burn, and second time playing the bus, it felt like my first time all over again. There is truly nothing like seeing the surreal orgy of lights from atop the bus; its glowing, pulsing heart serving as a beacon admidst the entropy. A sea of neon bicycles followed us until we found the perfect spot in the desert. Suddenly the crowd kept multiplying as the Mayan Warrior converged. The energy in the air was palpalbe and increasing in intenisty by the minute. At one point after mixing a record I looked back up to see my surroundings and realized our meeting place had completely transformed into another dimension. It was the beginning of one of the most intense nights of my life. And I am extremely grateful to have been a part of that mystical experience. Thank you to Robot Heart and everybody involved in creating the magic. I will never forget it.

"Tangential Dreams is a climbable sinuous tower made from off-the-shelf timber and digitally designed via algorithmic rules. One thousand “tangent” thin wooden pieces are held in position via horizontal pieces rotating along a central axis, gently moving in the wind like leaves of a giant tree. "

The art piece was "a homage to all artists and day dreamers, people living on the tangents, exploring possibilities creatively and with passion”. - Arthur Mamou-Mani

Jon Charnis - Robot Heart - Burning Man 2016

ta taaaaaa! 

here is my set I played at the legendary Kiosk at KaterBlau in Berlin Sunday night for Britta Arnold's party Grrr mit Brrr ⚫️✖️

KaterBlau for me has always been more than a club, it’s a musical landmark, a playground full of surprises, a cosy and unique space to be free and one of my favourite places on earth! 

the Berlin crowd is very educated. they are in a way even spoiled with good music all the time, yet they are so open and welcoming to anything and you can see and feel that they want to support new and excited faces! 

i felt very comfortable and welcomed behind the decks even though i was beyond excited to play amongst my biggest inspirations and my legs were still shaking towards the end of my set.

the sound of the recording is unfortunately not the highest quality, but i still want to share it with you and i hope you enjoy it as much as i enjoyed playing it 🌟💫 

It was a super fun party. thanks to everyone who came, danced, cheered, showed love. 

hope to be back very soon!
