Never is a meditation on a simple melody. I recorded it in one take almost two years ago. In need of some space and inspiration, I mixed Never into a companion track, and I'm releasing the pair of them together.

Freerotation 2024 : The House Of Crocodiles Part 2 (Live Recording)

Neel B2B Wata Igarashi [21.11.24]

Today we open another page of our Herbarium mix series. It's DJ Winggold's turn to show us his musical translation of the plant he picked. He created a colourful story full of energy and dynamics. It's definitely a mix which urges you to move your body while listening, what a banger.

DJ Winggold selected the Kudzu Vine (Pueraria Montana) for his mix, let's lean about his thoughts behind this:
By its nature, the kudzu vine is a relentless plant that is infamous for its ability to invade its surroundings and constantly be growing. Given the way it bulldozes through its environment, overrunning everything in its path, It’s seen as a negative thing, but I wanted to turn it on its head - what if the leaf could represent love and the way we need to constantly feed love in our lives, allowing it to unrelentingly flow in order to be truly fulfilled? Given the wriggly, unrelenting energy of the kudzu vines, I wanted to play wiggly, unpredictable tunes that fan out in multiple directions.

With this starting point, the mix inadvertently became a mix of distinct parts - there’s a point where the energy shifts and gets murkier, representing negative energy fighting against the warmth of love, with the kudzu leaves starting to gnarl, tangle and creep out further. From there on out, the battle intensifies with the mix getting more frantic and frenzied, with this representing the way love needs to be fought for on a daily basis.

About DJ Winggold
DJ Winggold is one of the key minds behind Unbound Events, a London-based events platform and monthly radio show carving out a space for minorities in the underground scene through the medium of forward-facing music. 

As an artist, he uses Afrofuturism as a guiding principle to direct his creative pursuits, focusing on the intersection between race, identity, history and culture. Sonically speaking, this manifests through the fusion of lysergic, hypnotic techno with sub-bass heavy global sounds inspired by and from across the hardcore continuum. This comes together to create something respecting the black roots of electronic music whilst remaining firmly forward-facing and unique.

SPF 50 at Dripping 2025

“Dispatches from the NYC underground: left field electronics, raw live cuts, unreleased gems and other oddities selected by the Lost Soul Enterprises crew and extended family, this week featuring live recordings from Sleep 300 (NYC duo of Salem Hilal and Jeremy Krinsley), and a listening mix from Lost Soul resident selector Heidi Sabertooth, respectively. 


Sleep 300 was born in NYC when Salem Hilal and Jeremy Krinsley were both on Godmode records alongside Yaeji, Malory, and other like-minded souls. It was love at first loop. Over the years they’ve played caves, barns, spaceships, and H0L0 a few times too. You can find their improvisatory style on full display over EPs and albums released by the kshack imprint.

Heidi Sabertooth crafts gritty drum loops and vintage acid on labels like New York Trax, BPitch, and Lobster Theremin.  A fixture in NYC’s techno scene, she delivers live hardware sets and vinyl-heavy DJ performances.  She co-founded Synth Library NYC, expanding access to music tech, and is one half of synth-pop duo Zeta Sect with R Gamble.
