The Exciting Unknown

"The mix unfolds like a quiet procession, each layer moving with patient gravity, weaving textures that blur the line between pulse and atmosphere. Inspired by the spirit of Kyoto’s Gion Festival, it evokes a sense of timeless calm — a sonic journey where deep currents carry the listener inward, even as echoes of the ancient linger in the distance."

Yuddy Ash (@yuddyash) is a producer and DJ based in Kyoto, Japan. His music delivers a percussive, ritualistic twist on techno, weaving mysterious rhythms with subtle tension to stir profound emotions. Fueled by a deep bond with sound, his sets unfold as immersive journeys, where resonant frequencies sync with the body's pulse.

We all have core memories of special dancefloor moments. Audience fully hypnotised, beating as one, lost in the music. Pure instinct, and the wildest spirit within each one shining through. Some artists have an uncanny ability to channel that. And today we present 2 masters at making those moments happen, via Perpendicular Festival 2025. Part of the Ouroboros takeover on Friday night, their performance at the event was one for the books. 

Toé, one of the minds behind EWO collectif and the Ouroboros project, has been mesmerising audiences with some stellar performances. A testament to it was her set just a couple days ago on her home turf, when we witnessed her sorcery at the peak of it's powers. With music that taps into the most feral and primal, it's hard to explain the purity of the feelings she conveys with her mixes. One thing is for sure, Toé has an ability to get your inner animal manifest on the dancefloor. 

Vardae needs no introduction at this point. His releases on Samurai Music or Non Series have established him in that "timeless" space of music creators. One to blame for the expansion on half time and dnb sounds into new psychedelic territory. Vardae is at the very front of a movement that unites breaks, tribe, trancey sounds and techno energy into a new irresistible ritual. His live performance gets better every time, and he turned Ouroboros upside down a couple of days ago. 

Together, you can only imagine what these magicians summon with their sonic potions. And Perpendicular was the cauldron in which their perfect mix took shape. Impossible drum patterns, enchanting atmospheres and their particular flare for transcendental sounds. Combined, these two take their wizardry to the highest levels. 

We couldn't be happier to host these two beloved artists, friends and amazing creatives. Inspiring humans that we always wanted to have in our channel. Infinite gratitude to Melu, Cedric, and the Perpen team for letting us host this piece of musical history. This is HUGE.

Ambient Sleepers - Kir Kts - 22 Sep 2025

Sound can be perceived as a texture, color or as a path waving trough your brain and body. An Intensity heavier or lighter, coming from the ground or running in a high frequency that resonates with a color palette. 
synæ is about this neurological phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory leads to the experience of another.

The twentieth. This week's submission sees London based music head Passaat join the channel. Best known for encapsulating audiences at Above Below, an intimate, nourishing, underground festival set in the Chiltern Hills. His repertoire spans varying shades of techno, but he has been known to curate ambient sets that could inspire introspection in the hardest of hard-heads. 

The mix itself sees the Out Of Focus brief well and truly met. Ambience, atmosphere, aura. Long, velvety blends allow the mix to flow and seam, like clouds on a clear day. Subtleties are introduced throughout as the pace builds before granting us a moment of tranquility. It is moments of stillness like these that should be cherished. Moments where we can ascend, only to be escorted through the final section still clutching the cloud we ride upon, as it vanishes before our very eyes.

IMOX' set recorded live on Saturday, 20th of September 2025 at BOSC - A short story by Paral·lel in Gualba, Spain.

IMOX @ BOSC 2025

"i’ve always found the concept of healing to be very abstract and esoteric to the point it seemed somewhat inaccessible, like it’s for other people. for me it’s something that those privileged enough to be exposed to it don’t want to define. for men in particular it can seem more elusive as there’s an inherent hardness which is reluctant to soften. there is a femininty attached to the concept of healing which can feel exclusive.

because of this i find it easy to call bullshit when people describe something impractical (such as a dj mix) as “healing” because enforces this intangibleness. other people are healed by it, but i’m not etc.

i’ve come to realize that take this literally is to miss the point. the act of healing is so personal, complex and never ending that it can’t be explained or administered by some artistic piece, and that any expectation that this is the case can only result in disappointment and continuation of this exclusatory cycle.

one thing i am sure of however is that the entry point is to first feel. feeling creates the conditions for exploration and acknowledgement of what is there, and only from here can we begin to look at what healing looks like for us. art generally and music specifically are cheat codes to feeling - they can reveal a numbness we may not know we had.

so this 2 hours of music was never intended to heal (though making it was healing for me). it was made instead to help us feel. it is a personal reflection of heartbreak and grief in its many forms, but i don’t consider it sad. i hope it helps someone who needs to feel, feel(:" - kraka

sounds of healing vol. 9 w/ kraka

Step aboard Owl’s intergalactic vessel and drift through the eerie beauty of the cosmic void, where particles of sound float freely - weightless and untamed. They begin to spiral toward one another, forming a swirling horde that grows stronger with every pulse. From their majestic collisions, new worlds emerge - each beat a planet, each drop a creation.

Belgium‑based artist and sound‑sculptor Pierre Nesi performs under the moniker Owl, crafting immersive deep‑space soundscapes where rhythm and atmosphere collide. With roots in drum & bass and ambient textures, his music invites listeners into orbit around pulsating atmospheres and emergent worlds. First spotted on Nord Label, and more recently appearing on Silent Season, Lowless, Huinali, Stasis, DNO, re:st and Muzan Editions, Owl’s subtle but distinct sonic journeys continue to evolve. His discography spans autonomic DnB, dreamy melancholy ambient, and genre‑bending leftfield explorations, further cementing his reputation as a master of sonic depth and expressiveness.

What we get to hear during this one hour of “Dynamic Spheres” is nothing less than a cosmic ritual. Taken from ambient worlds of divine purity the mix gradually builds up into deep and hypnotic breakbeats, which oscillate flawlessly between a spacey trippyness and more tribalistic streams. This is not a journey forward or back, but through: a descent into weightless space where halftime meets progression, and silence becomes motion.

Continuum: a coherent whole characterised as a collection, sequence, or progression of values or elements varying by minute degrees.

Some magical moments are impossible to capture. I am sure you have been there before: you try to explain, to put words on it, but the energy, the essence, just doesn't come through. Even the sharpest pens or the most eloquent talkers, are sometimes lost for words on those instants when everything clicks, when everything is in harmony. 

I've had the pleasure of meeting someone who has the power to convey those moments, distill their essence, and turn them into sound (and lately, also into images). Those who had the pleasure of meeting Ameeva, will know what I am talking about. He composes with emotion, shares sound that is full of passion and has a unique sense of feeling. Coming fresh from a performance at Casa Montjuic in partnership with Mostra, he is no stranger to those that love the most atmospheric ambient sounds. Head to his Bandcamp for a sample of how his music manages to touch the most feral and deep of emotions. 

The moment he captured for you, and all of us, happened some months ago on the outskirts of Madrid. And for me, it was an eye opener. A bunch of friends, many of us recently met, sharing food and drinks. Just a night of classic spanish "sobremesa", gone a bit out of hand. At that point, Alex and some others have a simple idea and ask if we can move the soundsystem to the garden, set up the hammocks outside, connect the Digitakt, and do a live set under the stars. Bear in mind, it is 2am. 

If you are with a group of people that asks these types of questions, and the answer is yes, you are in the right place, with the right ones. 

The rest of what happened, is here for you to listen to. 

Thank you Alex. This is it. This is why we do this.

"Two waters converge ~
currents twist, merge, and arise,
a new river is born."  - ϙue

slyn (live) | biorhythym x Gravity Pleasure @ Kwia | 26.10.25

"I dream of journeys repeatedly:
Of flying like a bat deep into a narrowing tunnel
Of driving alone, without luggage, out a long peninsula,
The road lined with snow-laden second growth,
A fine dry snow ticking the windshield,
Alternate snow and sleet, no on-coming traffic,
And no lights behind, in the blurred side-mirror,
The road changing from glazed tarface to a rubble of stone,
Ending at last in a hopeless sand-rut,
Where the car stalls,
Churning in a snowdrift
Until the headlights darken."
