Samuel van Dijk is an electronic music producer, sound designer and media artist from the Netherlands releasing deep electronic music as VC-118A, Mohlao, and Multicast Dynamics.

Drawing inspiration from technology, nature, film, and fiction, his productions and live sets embody a dynamic musical framework. Since the Dutchman surfaced as Mohlao for labels like Meanwhile, Field and Other Heights at the turn of the decade, van Dijkʼs music has found a firm position; the ethereal electro VC-118A project, deep ambient techno as Mohlao, and subterranean ambient as Multicast Dynamics.

The beautiful four colour sleeve is designed by art director Markus Clemmedson and include Sebastian’s poetry.

Vill jag gråta eller skratta? 
känslor som virvlar i en ström av otydlighet 
släpp det lös, vilken frihet! 
inte hålla tillbaka, visa 
det som hållits stelt istället för att släppas 
fritt. 
detta ständiga sökande på ett svar,
denna jakt på mening som bara förfl yttar 
mig från det som är sant, 
inga svar 
ingen mening
vila i den tillit och varje stund fylls av liv
som formas, flyter, lever

där är vi ... 
en ström 
en rörelse 
en medvetenhet

Noods Radio Freerotation Special 

Noods Radio - Freerotation Special 2020-03-29 - Alex Downey

As a result of and a response to the confinement of spring 2020 a new sonic collaboration was formed between three artists, challenging the idea of isolation and perception of space we are confined within.

Exploring empty vacated sites in East Berlin, the trio found their creative recluse in an abandoned hangar built in 1918, an architectural heritage, protected but abandoned, where a sequence of dome-like structures provided a stage and an instrument at once for musical improvisation to occur naturally.

A sense of sacred den, the building itself felt like a sonorous body, with high concrete ceilings swirling upwards and hollow, porous flooring below allowing a psychoacoustic phenomena of natural resonances to manifest.

Spontaneous improvisation took place, using found objects inside the hangar - pieces of wood, rock, glass and metal, together with other acoustic instruments brought by the musicians - double bass, accordion, cello, turkish cymbal, tibetan bowl, bells, and the voice as an omnipresent tool.

The supernatural echo of the building, almost sinister at times but hauntingly transient depending on the position of the sound source allowed the musicians to experiment with textural elements of their instruments and the impulse responses of the building.

Embodying the endless flux of vibrational energies, the trio created interpersonal resonances by engaging in a ‘Deep Listening and Deep Playing’ rituals, taking in the entirety of the sound-world around them including the acoustics of the space and the incidental sounds such as birds, insects, children in the playground, or rain dropping from the indented ceiling of the ruins.
All the elements in the compositions have been recorded on site and their unedited and raw qualities have been persevered in the pieces.

Music by Zoya Zerkalski, Edvina Fahlqvist, Charly Roussel.

When you listen to Sebastian Mullaert’s music you will feel something enchanting, a resonance that delivers truth, integrity and reminds us to simply be. The Swedish artist has a distinct approach to life, as well as music, which is centred around tranquillity, stillness and the convergence of Zen meditation, nature and creativity. Known for his work as one half of Minilogue, Sebastian is also an accomplished solo artist with new material ready to roll. As an artist that is constantly evolving he has taken a bold new direction in his sonic exploration, immersing himself in the neo-classical scene and joining forces with one of the top 10 philharmonic orchestras in the world - Tonhalle Zürich. Working with great care and innovation he has created a truly immersive audio-visual performance experience, combining a mesmerising integration of electronic and classical instrumentation, with a visual art installation based on breath taking nature landscapes shot from a helicopter perspective. With such an innovative approach he aims to bridge the gap between classical and electronic music and introduce a whole new generation to the neo-classical concept. 

Sebastian's deep connection with music can be traced back to his formative years; from playing the organ and violin as a child, to performing in orchestras, string quartets and pop band, progressing into electronic music in his late teens. Discovering house and techno in the mid-nineties was the catalyst behind a revolution in his life, he set out on a new musical pathway, to promote the simplicity of being. Throughout the late nineties he experimented with electronic sounds, forming cult duo Minilogue with a friend and releasing with Crosstown Rebels, Traum Schallplatten, Wagon Repair and more, plus two albums via Cocoon – ‘Animals’ (2008) and ‘Blomma’ (2013). In 2014, the duo decided to take a break and invest their time in solo projects and Sebastian has since been hard at work cultivating a collection of new music already snapped up by hugely influential labels such as R&S sub-label Apollo, Drumcode, Hypercolour and Minus.

Sebastian Mullaert’s live performances are awe-inspiring, combining technical wizardry with energy, atmosphere and euphoria, you only have to watch his “Interpretations” performance for XLR8R or Boiler Room appearance for examples of his prowess. Recognition of his aptitude has led him to perform at institutions and festivals such as Panorama Bar - Berlin, Labyrinth Festival - Japan, Fabric - London, Concrete - Paris, The Block - Tel Aviv and Blackmarket - NYC. 

Sebastian’s collaborative work runs parallel to his solo endeavours and he has teamed up with several figures in the techno world to produce some unforgettable releases. Collaborators include Mathew Jonson, Eitan Reiter, Aril Brikha and Ulf Eriksson, and releases have come via underground platforms such as Hypnus, Mule Musiq and Kontra Musik. He also produces under the alias Wa Wu We, offering a serene, understated take on the techno aesthetic. Furthermore he is involved in the new Be Yokai project, a trio formed of Sebastian, Douglas Holmquist and Kristoffer Ström. The three men formed a natural alliance, finding their flow after several sessions together. Their first EP is signed to Hypercolour sub-label Space Hardware, with a live show and more music in the pipeline.

Sebastian Mullaert is already established as a potent force in the world of electronic music. Serious about reminding people to BE on the dance floor, or in the comfort of their own home, the music he makes is deep, progressive and utterly unique. Whatever the future holds, you can be sure he will continue to channel the infinite energy that surrounds us into every facet of his life.
