The closing set at the Varden stage is always a special time; Filled with excitement, tears, hugs, and exhaustion, it marks the end of four incredible days at Monument Festival.

This year Japanese maestro Wata Igarashi stepped up and delivered a legendary closing set. A psychedelic vortex of sound thundered across the forest as the dance floor was illuminated in radiant colors and fog, with smiling faces and dancing bodies all around. 

So find your best headphones or sit down in front of your speakers, turn it up, and time travel back to the Forgotten Valley. Guided by our friend, Wata Igarashi. Enjoy.

Since 2010, Djrum has been concocting a late-night melting pot of dubstep, garage, techno and dub, maintaining a gold label quality control throughout. 2016 sees a three-part series of releases on 2nd Drop Records and, to mark the occasion, Felix has put together a 30 minute Worldwide mix.

Beverly Glenn-Copeland is already known amongst collectors and music heads for two sought-after albums of folky jazz in the key of Joni. But it was this album, originally self-released on cassette in 1986 that really caught our attention. The album, entirely recorded on DX-7 and TR-707, lies somewhere between digital new-age and (accidentally) early Detroit techno experiments. The inimitable style of BGC here is both peaceful and meditative while simultaneously rhythmic and bass heavy. The album was recorded in the northern Canadian town of Huntsville where BGC was living at the time and is a beautiful fusion of personal vision, technology and place.

Poimandres sect. 24, by Hermes Trismegistus

"The image of the soul ascending through the planetary spheres and hearing the planetary music on the way is one of the most powerful and recurrent in this collection. The ascent may take place during life, in a trance or dream, or else after death, as here. The Hermetic voyager transcends the planetary harmony-the realm where Souls are made- to rise in his/her purified being to the harmony of the invisible world, whereupon another ladder of ascent leads eventually to his deification. Elsewhere in the treatise Poimandres also describes the decent of the soul, which takes on the psychological qualities of each planet, to varying degrees, as it passes down through the spheres. It is these qualities and energies that are summarized in the natal horoscope, which charts the moment at which the Soul brings these tendencies into the earthly realm. Each incarnate being therefore sounds, as it were, a different chord of the planetary or psychological harmonies, and it is this that causes musica humana (the music of the human being) to resemble musica mundana (the music of the worlds or spheres). "

Inspired by the graveside oration of French philosopher Jacques Derrida to Louis Althesseur.

The melody, like the wounds of history, is given room to decay and seep.
