Live From APOG 2024

As sun sets on island's ledge,
Families gather, twilight pledge.
Sky meets sea in hues divine,
Magic afterhour begins to shine.
Twilight's sway, music's guide,
Rhythmic journey, deep inside.
Melodies through salty air,
Join in mystical dance affair.
Laughter echoes, stories told,
Within music, they unfold.
Generations linked, delight,
Under starry blanket's light.
Rhythms pulse like waves ashore,
Guiding spirits to explore.
In twilight's hour, they find grace,
Bound by music's warm embrace.
Night descends, stars ignite,
Carrying enchantment's light.
In music's spell, they've found their way,
In island's bay, family sway.

Up next on Digital diamonds series is SAN MIGUEL. His musical signature is defined by his various interests and influences of his travels through time and space which manifests itself into a soundscape of hypnotic spheres and deep driven basses. Often combined with folkloric elements and a range of organic instruments, his sound weaves unique tales that carries the audience gently and straight into an ecstatic dance experience. He is a master for clashing the styles and shows a deep instinct for timing and suspense as he draws a bow throughout his mixes that will move any dancefloor that thrives on powerful global beats and psychedelic rhythms.

Wildwood / APOG 2024

At APOG 2021, my partner Skye and I were camped in the back of the tea tent we brought, we talked about what  it would look like to make a decompression space that was also a stage. Wildwood was a dream of both of ours for a space and vibe we felt lacking in the excitement of most festivals. Somewhere you could take a load off without retiring for the night or feeling removed from the experience. Over the past 3 years I've dove into curating that sound.  It is an exciting and unique vibe to curate, chill but energetic, calming but not sleepy, groovy and powerful but not overwhelming. All the music curated for this set was with the intention of supporting the energy we wanted Wildwood to hold for the community, as Skye put it "music you fall in love to". Hope you enjoy =)

Falling For Wildwood @ APOG 2024

My set from APOG Festival in Darrington Washington, a cozy festival tucked away in the wild woods of the pacific northwest. Enjoy.

Samaha at the Wildwood // APOG Festival 2024

My closing sunrise set from APOG just landed in my lap.

Tap in, for it, here.

Much love to my De Wanna Wanga fam for absolutely smashing their stage this year and keeping it running to the early morning.

The intricacies of this space are not missed by me... what you don't get as an attendee is all the fun little gems hidden in the booth. So much love and care was put into the De Wanna Wanga stage for every one involved, attendee, stage crew and djs. They thought of it all.

Wanting to "Do it for Wanga" it was important to start hot and heavy for dem. I covered the full spectrum of music heard throughout the weekend in all spaces. A final tasting of all the sounds we love wrapped up nicely and I kept the sleepy time music for very last. We got every last bit out of this weekend as the sun rose up through those trees in a breathtaking way.
Thank you to those that stayed up all night to rock it out, woke up early to join for this session in the morning or fought their hardest and listed to their bodies and got rest.

I was surprised to see halfway through my set the recorder running, we'll call it a happy little accident. Thanks Hannah and Sean for setting that up earlier in the night and letting it roll through.

My hope is this hour of music will transport you back to the dancefloor if even for a brief moment where we shared laughs, smirks, some unmentionables and even tears.

Love you all!

❤

“There is light in the dark”, Nico Tober is back. 
For the second time he serve us from the best audio plates in downtempo, and if they aren't 'down', he will make them. Somehow Nico manages to balance vocal melodics and lush harmonies with the more unpredictable beats. The goodiebag is open, from the Sofa we bow and give him a high-5-support.

I am Orlando/ Gamme dee Meo, at home in Switzerland and belong to the wonderful music family OCTO Records.

I started mixing music 2004 and took whatever was there, hard acid, house, progressive, generally Tekkno, so to speak.

I played Goa and organized parties for a very long time.

I also played ambient, drum n bass, lounge and electronic world as I worked at Sony Music.

This was soon followed by big beats, trip hop, jazz, no jazz, funk, with which I played at festivals in Switzerland such as Bluebals, Jazz Festival Montreux, Greenfield.

My interests became even more diverse over time. I also really enjoyed Irish folk, medieval music, Balkan style and electro swing.

In addition to these, I played tech house and minimal for a while.

Last but not least, and for several years now, my heart has been beating at around 80 to 110 bpm to ethno, downtempo, deep house, 

world music, melodic house, oriental, Dub, organic and I love soulful, warm, invigorating, sunny tracks that tell stories. .
