We all know this moment - you are lying in bed with a loved one and the world stands still.

You put on some music to set the scene for rising temperatures under the sheets…

The set you put on suddenly brings you out of rhythm, but getting up to skip the track is no longer an option.

We have been scouting for the perfect Sunday morning sets for quite a while already and while "Eigentlich heissen wir Klaus" & "Mattmosphere" have been steady suppliers of them for us, we also developed the idea of asking befriended artists to record one hour of music, to which they like to stay in bed with a loved one.

It's an intimate ask, but most of them said yes.

Cuddle Cast 16 comes from Berlin-based @madmoiselle_myrna, she is part of our friends at @wdlnds and has also played for our social partner @love-foundation back in 2022.

Its a beautiful dreamy journey that she created for us, so grab your special person, get cosy, press play and be ready to let the love birds fly ❤️

We are happy to welcome @steffisound for the next part of our spotlight series! Steffi's musical preferences as a DJ are characterized by his love for deep, emotional, and particularly melancholic music, as well as hypnotic, driving, and dramatic powerful music. Since the beginning of his career, he has aimed to combine these characteristics into a recognizable style, which sometimes makes him a secret weapon, especially for morning hours, afterhours, or closing sets in clubs or at festivals.

MINI-INTERVIEW

What was the intention behind your set?
In podcasts or live DJ sets, I always try to express my current mood and incorporate all the musical influences that inspire me. It's less about the mixing technique and more about the atmosphere and the storytelling and especially the closing of the set. I try to keep it deep and combine hypnotic/trippy with emotional sounds. In this set are some tracks I played at Zugvøgel Festival this summer, where I've been a resident for a few years now. I got this as a little present for everyone who was sad that I haven't uploaded the live recording yet.

What was your most significant club / festival moment?
In 2019 I played the closing set on Zamonien Floor at Zugvøgel Festival and at the end of the set I could hear and see people in front of the stage completely falling apart with their emotions. Between laughing and crying with joy. The Dj Booth was full of my dearest friends and I can't remember a moment where I didn't have goosebumps. Light, decoration, people. Everything was just right

Favorite release at the moment & of all times?
Even though it was released a while ago, I discovered the track Beatamines & Stephan Zovsky – The Island (Dole&Kom Remix) this year. I really love this organic and driving sound of the track! 
All Time Fav is hard!
Melancholic sound influences me a lot and if it's danceable to it, then it's perfect for me. I have played the track in a lot of closing tracks and therefore I would choose Skena – Too Late (Original Mix).

Avocado @ Suedpol Expedition 2024

Eines Tages... hüpften die Hoppelhasen fröhlich über die Wiese, als plötzlich eine Einladung flatterte: Der Petrified Phoenix lud sie spontan zu einem Ständchen in der funkelnden Rakete ein. Begeistert machten sie sich auf den Weg, doch mitten auf ihrer Reise – oh Schreck! – hatten sie eine kleine Panne, als ein loses Karottenrad ihres Hoppelmobils abfiel. Mit vereinten Kräften und einer Prise Hoppel-Magie schafften sie es aber gerade noch rechtzeitig, um an Bord zu hüpfen. Dort bouncten sie die Makrobe, während die Klänge von Stained die Rakete in eine galaktische Tanzfläche verwandelten. 🚀

Attached our short interview:

~~ INTERVIEW~~

✔️ What are your musical influences? What is your musical background?
I've been involved with music since I was young. 
Sometimes more, sometimes less, but music has been my daily companion for as long as I can remember. 
The festival scene has given me the opportunity to share what I love so much.
 
✔️ What do you think makes a good afterhour?
Afterhours are always very special moments for me. There's a very special atmosphere here that I only know from afterhours.... The sunrise! The melancholy in the air! Just extraordinary! The right people around you and good music combined with sleeplessness are crucial. 
 
✔️ What thoughts would you like to share with us about your mix?
Have a great 2025 everyone!

Nur Simon presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 298

We are happy to welcome @fauxpas_bln for the next part of our spotlight series! 

FAUXPAS presents "Synaptic Shift," a journey into new sonic realms that marks a pivotal turning point in their musical evolution. After intensive years in indie dance, where they crafted their unique style, they now dare to venture into the deep, hypnotic spheres of psy-tech.

What was the intention behind your set?

"Synaptic Shift" represents more than just a genre shift—it’s a rewiring of the mind, a shift in perception. With dark, driving basslines, shimmering synths, and pulsating rhythms, FAUXPAS creates a soundscape that moves both body and mind. This set invites you to let go, open your mind, and embark on a journey between dimensions.

What was your most significant club / festival moment?

That was clearly our first festival gig in 2022 at the Feel Festival.
Before us, a group played with a completely different sound than ours, bringing a totally different vibe to the floor.
Of course, we were a bit nervous, but once we realized that our sound was well received by the crowd, smiles started spreading, hips began shaking, and the pressure lifted. We were able to fully enjoy the experience. It was truly wonderful!

We are happy to welcome @granular-heat for the next part of our spotlight series!

Granular Heat is a 29 years old Melodic Techno DJ and Producer out of Hamburg in the north of Germany. His signature sound is a blend between Melodic Techno and Progressive House with emotional breaks, characteristic vocals and rhytmical basses and synthesizers.
 
What was the intention behind your set? 
With my DIT KLINGT JUT set i want to express my style in playing music. I want to take the people with me on a musical journey through time and space and tell them my story with the songs i choosed. My sets are known for emotional breaks and vocal parts, which are there to close the eyes and to take a deep breath, before the next drop will hit in. So I hope I make the listeners dance and I can leave a smile on their faces.
 
This set is filled with my favorite releases of the year 2024, songs of really good friends of mine and also own unreleased music.
 
What was your most significant club / festival moment?
My most significant club moment was my set in the club Zimmer in Mannheim, where I took in December 2024 over from Kevin de Vries to play the closing set of the night. Kevin was one of the artist, with who my love for Melodic Techno started, so it was a special moment to share the decks with him.
 
Favorite release at the moment & of all times?
Right now: Goom Gum - Staccato EP
All time: Eric Prydz - Opus

Ich hatte so viel Spaß bei meinem Kater Debut, niemand weiß so genau wie oft ich gesagt habe dass es niemals aufhören soll. 🪄💖🪩
An einem Sonntag Morgen im Kater Kiosk in so viele befreundete und grinsende Gesichter zu schauen, mit der süßesten Muna und Kater Crew und Herzensmenschen um mich herum. Schöner hätten diese zwei Stunden im Sonnenaufgang garnicht sein können! ✨

Träumchen können halt wirklich wahr werden. ❤️‍🩹

Ganz viel Liebe an meine friends, die Muna und den Kater. Machen wa wieder!
DANKE!

all cats are beautiful 🐈‍⬛🧚‍♂️🌈

Es war einmal ein Samstag im Ziegennest. Die Uhr schlug 4 Stunden in die Abendstunden hinein. Genauer genommen war es der Zeitraum von 23 bis in die Morgenstund um 3.   

Meine gedrosselte Meinung zum Abend: Ein Schwoffest von der Ziege bis zur Drossel! Danke für den wilden Ritt ihr Herzis <3

Expedition Schwofpol mit den Ziegen (01.02.2025)

Ein guter Freund hat neulich zu mir gesagt, spiel genau das, was du grad am meisten fühlst. Und genau das hab ich gemacht und zusammen zu diesem Set gebaut. 

Das war ein richtig schöner Abend und es hat mich so gefreut zu sehen, dass die Musik, die mich grad am meisten bewegt, auch ganz viele andere bewegt hat, im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes.

Danke für die Einladung an die dreifachen Dreißiger und für die lieben Worte danach.

“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.
