SKKIN VELVET — MIXES

ELV/RA x VER:AIR w/ Victor Ruiz, Mikah uvm.

𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐭𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐳 [ˈ𝐯ɛ𝐥𝐭ʃ𝐦ɛ𝐫𝐭𝐬]
(n.) lit. „world-pain“; the depression you feel when the world as it is doesn’t reflect what you think it should be

» 𝘈 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘴𝘢𝘥𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘤𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 « (𝘑𝘢𝘤𝘰𝘣 & 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘮 𝘎𝘳𝘪𝘮𝘮) 
» 𝘗𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘺 𝘨𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘺 « (𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘯 𝘏𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦) 
» 𝘞𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 « (𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘴 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘯)

Since the 24th of February I am mute and paralyzed. I can’t explain what I think and I can’t think what I feel. Sometimes I can barely breathe.
But what I feel, I wanna share with you.

Maybe this mixtape will make you cry as I did while recording it; but maybe it will wrap you in its arms and keep you warm and give you a shelter for 90 minutes.

Feel your feelings, guys, they are real.
All of them.

weltschmerz [ˈvɛltʃmɛrts]

ELV/RA - weltschmerz [ˈvɛltʃmɛrts]

Energy is the ability and strength to do active physical things and the feeling that you are full of physical power and life. Energy flow is the flow of energy through living things within an ecosystem. All living organisms can be organized into producers and consumers, which are in a constant energy exchange with each other.

𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠

this is a november blues
it often comes, it rarely goes
colors fade from blue to anthracite
everything melts and we solidify
slowly into crystallites 
memories become requisites
most of all 
during those grey and melancholic
nights

while days are moving 
we are choosing
to stay distantly apart

hey, little one
we cannot have another start
feeling sorrow and sorry
it's confusing

this an ode to losing

some things go, something lasts

ELV/RA - some things go, something lasts

My recording straight from the ewiges nice 🐧❄️ Enjoy listening and dancing as much as I did while playing <3

ELV/RA @ RITTER BUTZKE ÖLFASSLAGER | 10 03 23

on these wonderful warm early summer days i often think back to my first open air gig this year at atmosphere events at edelfettwerk. what a magical day with a tremendous and electrifying atmosphere that was! after my live recording was only available privately on soundcloud for weeks, i have now decided to release it after all.

enjoy this summer with every breath, guys. it is finally here 💛

ELV/RA - SPRING AWAKENINGS OPEN AIR @ EDELFETTWERK | 22 04 23

From 125 to 147 bpm in two hours - What a dynamic and energizing ride this has been. Glad to expand my soundcloud portfolio with a straight techno set now. Enjoy listening!

ELV/RA - SUPPORT FOR NICO MORENO @ UEBEL & GEFÄHRLICH | 12 05 23 - [TECHNO SET]

would you believe i wasn't the least bit nervous before i got behind the dj booth and started playing?

for months i was so awestruck and joyfully excited knowing i am going to play at the pavoia festival in the holy halls of the majestic palac stage - i was so full of anticipation that there was no room and lastly no time to get nervous.

it was by far one of the most intense gigs of my life and my heart immediately starts to flutter again when i think back to the charged room, the electrified vibe, your hands raised incessantly. with my set i tried to capture and reflect the elegance by day and the pressure by night of this wonderful festival - and i am so grateful to you guys for understanding it in that night. 

thank you to every single person who hugged me during or after the gig, thank you to every single one of your words, thank you for every single lovely message. i have never received sooo much feedback for a set, so it is my heartfelt wish to share it with you now. i am happy if it reaches you the same way as it did a month ago.

feel invited to leave a little comment or like if you want to support my algorithm and therefore me 🫂

sincerely yours,
elvira

SKKIN VELVET @ VER:AIR W/ OGUZ & AMELIE LENS | 29.06.24

400,000 souls, 300 DJs, 30 floats, and somewhere in the midst—me and my 45 minutes of playtime, probably the shortest three-quarters of an hour in my life. standing up there, sharing energy with thousands, being part of something so big and important, fills me with deep humility.
thank you, rave the planet, for having me.

enjoy listening <3

[ kinetik : 05 APR 2025 ]
recorded live at uebel & gefährlich in hamburg, opening the night for schrotthagen. 

so here it is – my first melodic techno set after one and a half years.

i had no idea i’d be standing there, crying through the last fifteen minutes of my set. overwhelmed. wide open. goosebumps all over.

hamburg, you broke me in the most beautiful way.
thank you for your energy, your arms in the air, your tears, your love.
you reminded me why i started all of this.

this live mix is emotional, driving and raw. trancey textures, melancholic melodies, and destruction wrapped in velvet.

let me know: how did it make you feel?

skkin velvet – melodic techno live @ uebel & gefährlich (schrotthagen opening set)

this was one of the most special sets i’ve played in a long time.
floor takeover from paraçek at uebel & gefährlich for ver: - this night stuck with me and i'm still deeply in love with it. if you were there, you know. if not – press play.

hit follow to stay close to future releases & live moments.
& leave some love if this moved you 🖤
