welcoming our talented friend and music enthusiast - forlorn - who we were lucky to receive a contribution from for the second episode of our sagebend series

a journey through sensoric satisfaction, soothening textures, and dripping percussive layers. it carries both warmth and serenity - yet also stirs your nerves and keeping you locked - a harmonious balance of comfort and intensity

forlorn, a Copenhagen-based DJ, is characterized by a distinctive sound that fuses deconstructed ambient textures with dub-influenced elements. her sets are a journey through electronic music, blending percussive, breakbeat, and bass-driven rhythms spiked with an experimental edge. she has contributed to creative projects including the record labels REIW and Katla To Records, and is a resident DJ at Malmö’s Retreat Radio.
hope you enjoy<3

sb mix 02: forlorn

Audio post production engineer, lecturer in music computing and sound synthesis. Shaped by the Berlin glitch movement of the '90s and the raw energy of the early 2000s European rave scene, his musical voice now fuses precision engineering with deep club experimentation. His productions carve out hypnotic soundscapes—equal parts immersive and unpredictable—balancing broken rhythms, fragmented textures, and unconventional tempos. It’s a journey through the fringes of contemporary electronic music, where structure bends and the unexpected becomes the groove.
