Roll up Roll up!  We have a seriously tasty package for APPIAN019 and have gone back to a Various Artist format for this one. 

Here we share 4 sets of artists that have been on our radar for some time - some new joiners to Appian and some old friends : ) We think each track stands out from their past discographies and offers something special. 

Timeless cuts to suit intimate dancefloors.

Hope you enjoy : )

MAKE RAP GREAT AGAIN. (PROD. HATRED)

Ra-ngom (ระงม) describes a swelling, resonant hum, a collective vibration of sound that entrances the senses. Following the path of Vinyan and Kāthā, Ragom marks the third curated cassette transmission from Siamese Twins Records.

A continuation of deep excursions across Asian terrains rooted in exploratory listening, psychic levitation, and serpentine flow. Ragom sources energy from the rhythmic ecology of Eastern nocturnal cycles, where cicadas rise in chorus and currents shimmer through thin air while rippling through consciousness. Creating an imaginary sonic reality through layered field recordings, raw electronics, and ceremonial textures, converting natural phenomena into granular soundscapes.

A meditative body of work, Ragom captures the quiet intensity of natural repetition: the kind that stirs slowly, building in waves until it becomes inescapable.

Mastered by Neel at Enisslab.

The next Deep Mind Music comes from one of my dearest friends, and greatest inspirations - hems

hems and I have a special connection, we both love to adventure through musical lands strange and beguiling, evocative and unusual, and have spent many hours together digging through obscure backcatalogs or making our own noises experimenting with hems’ many synthesisers in his studio in London 🧡

hems plays music like no one else I know, he has a magic touch and deep sensitivity for representing all shades of human existence. From the sublime to the transcendent, the unsettling to the hilarious, hems’ sets takes listeners to the beyond and then further still.

I first invited hems to make a mix many years ago, so I am very happy to finally welcome an entry from him. This recording is the first 2.5 hours of an all-night 8 hour set hems played at an intimate private gathering in Mexico City in March of this year.

In this recording hems coaxes us to drift inwards, to enter into an unusual landscape, to open up to all the elements of sound, contrasting pre-Hispanic music with vintage synthesizer tracks and much more.  

Listening to hems’ sets over the years has expanded my mind towards new possibilities, his selections and genius touch for programming evoking many deep epiphanies and insights. This mix is brimming with vitality and life, I hope you enjoy this kaleidoscopic voyage into the mystical 🌿 ~

Alongside DJing, hems produces very deep and intricate experimental electronic music I highly recommend checking out, often utilitising spatial audio systems or even playing gongs live, and he also runs the amazing Titrate records with @o-utlier, as well as his own mix series @hardcore-chillout with @EightFoldWay

For this next entry in the Embodiment series, we’re proud to share a deeply atmospheric and intuitively woven mix by BLUME.

"Lately I’ve been dwelling in a strange in-between," BLUME shares, "and this mix lives there too. No bpm to hold onto, no genre to fall into. Ghosted rhythms, soft dissonance, moments of friction, and traces of fourth world brass dissolving into smoke. Not meant to resolve, just to linger."

One thing we resonate with deeply is how BLUME moves fluidly across genre boundaries not as a showcase, but as a way of creating dynamics and narrative. The tracks don’t just follow one another, they speak, echo, and unfold together like fragments of a larger story.

No need to overthink it just press play and see where it takes you.

Bambi - 26 Juin 2025

Khun fluff returns with a downtempo bender, forthcoming on the 'Ragom V.A' cassette.

Khun Fluff - Yant

Surrounded by and giving life to one of the northern-most, temperate rainforests in the world, the Pacific Northwest's chalak’At’sit (Hoh River) carves its way from the glaciers of Mount Olympus towards the Pacific Coast.

Close your eyes and let the soundscape of chalak’At’sit envelope you in her emerald, verdant embrace. Layered embers of ethereal tones flicker, then quickly disappear across undulating waves of pirouetting idiophonic vibrations. Thus begins a psychedelic trip through exothermic rainforest-scapes and climaxes nestled in lush, majestic reverie.

Headphone listening recommended, for the sonic details.
The immersive audio-visual trip is best viewed in HD on Youtube:

The moon remained silent

Chang and Eng, born in 1811 in Siam (nowadays Thailand), were the first documented conjoined twin brothers. Their fame propelled the expression “Siamese Twins” to become synonymous for conjoined twins. It is also a record label based in Bangkok run by Sunju, Johan, Taychin and Yoshi. A home for authentic, tribally rooted sounds introducing Asian artists and creating symbiotic dialogues with producers around the globe.

Two heads, one path, one pace.
