This EP dives into the roots of subculture: deep house and rebellion. Shaped in New York, inspired by art and Brooklyn’s underground energy. It questions how we perform ourselves in society and on social media: music as protest and peace offering at once. 
A sound for outsiders, dreamers and night owls.

After a nice summer break we're back with our latest release. Greg Ochman keeps on producing astonishing records and 'Hili' is again taking our breaths away. With lush subtle sounds that breath warmth and love the English craftsman create a timeless organic house track. Add to the the catchy piano melody and special arp sounds and we have a record that will stand the test of time and will be played on many festivals to come. On remix duties we have three guys that each give their own interpretation to the original. Argentina based Valdovinos never sees to amaze and adds his recognizable organic sound, Tekniq from South Africa adds wonderful rhythms and gives extra attention to the piano and last but not least we have Germany based Skydrips who slows it down a bit and adds a tropical vibe to close off this release in the best way possible

Greg Ochman - Hili (Skydrips Extended Tropical Remix)

Above the rooftops of the metropolis. There was a line between music and sky.
Downtempo for body and soul.

After Skydrips & Tiefe Wasser Berlin released their joint debut track “Du bist hier” last year, the story goes on.

'Nach Hause' - is the first single of their upcoming EP 'Heimweg'.

The way home after a club visit can sometimes be more exciting than the previous party itself. 
Mysterious, impossible to classify, or filled with special and abstract impressions.
That is the theme of this song - from the parallel society back to reality or the other way around. After a journey through the big city life, this track welcomes you with open arms, hour, (after)hour.

Releasedate 31st of May on Amselcom.

Skydrips & Tiefe Wasser Berlin - Nach Hause

After releasing „Nach Hause“ (back home), the first track of their EP „Heimweg“, Skydrips & Tiefe Wasser Berlin now take a different direction into the wild.
‌
„Acajou“ presents a great mixture of complex beat architecture and intimate, ethereal vocals. The song makes you feel like you step out of the shadow of a cool tent just to watch over the endless dunes of a vast desert.
So hop on your camel and enjoy this ride towards the next station of their exciting journey.

Thanks to for your support.

Love!

Skydrips *Live @ 3000 Grad Festival 3024

With „Sonnenmeer“, Tiefe Wasser Berlin and Skydrips douse us with a shower of pure sunlight.
Like lying in a hammock and letting the flickering light between the leaves above you blur your thoughts. 
And words pass by like a distant caravan, accompanied by the sound of the Indian Harmonium.
A magic blend between east and west. Between „Here & Now“ and „Once upon a time“…

Sonnenmeer

At the beginning of the year I visited Lena and Mike in their apartment in Kreuzberg. A Berlin winter day. Cold, unpleasantly grey.
And to be honest, all in all, I wasn't in the best shape at that time. Visits were very selective and rare. But I felt well surrounded by my friends.

There was tea, homemade waffles  and we talked about anything. A great moment. A familiar moment. A safe moment.

And for sure - later on, At some point in the evening we talked about music.
We were quickly moving on to imaginative levels and, best of all, we were imagining ourselves in a souk in Beirut. 
One of the fundamental ideas in this track. 

This song envelops all other tracks - just like a cocoon. You know?
And that's what it's all about. 
It is about the space you need to let go and feel comfortable.

Skydrips & Biljana Pais - Guidance
Cat-No: UYSR147
Label: Underyourskin Records - GVL Labelcode 83623
release: July 18th 2025

01. Skydrips & Biljana Pais - Guidance
02. Biljana Pais & Skydrips – Love as New

We’re excited to present a special collaboration between two unique artists: Biljana Pais and Skydrips. What
began as an inspiring phone conversation evolved into a creative exchange—each artist sharing an unfinished
idea with the other, laying the foundation for two deeply personal tracks.
‘Guidance’ is a delicate and emotional journey, driven by warm FM synthesis and soft textures that gently carry
Biljana’s vocals. Despite its faster tempo, it’s the more sensitive of the two tracks—offering comfort, depth, and
a sense of fragile beauty during uncertain times.
‘Love As New’ takes a different route. Slower, rawer, and grounded in gritty textures, it reflects the pulse of
Berlin—its contrasts, chaos, and poetry. From the scent of steel at Kottbusser Tor to the ever-changing rhythm
between Wedding and Lichtenberg, this track is a love letter to the city’s diverse musical soul. A sonic cocktail
of electronic and hip-hop influences, ready to be savored or devoured.

TRACK LYRICS - GUIDANCE

as I see you
rather feel you
save the game
mood of darkness
turning out
to be red s
ee the bottom
every day
but I am grounded
see the darkness
in a way
it's my guidance
I will travel over night
see you laughing over night
sun is on us over night
remind me if I lose you over night
holding your hand over night
young is your hand
shoulders bright
you were keeping me alive
over night
remind me if I forget how you smell
like grass like earth
like hope
like wide path
like barefoot
cut wood
lime gone time
52 summers alive overnight
do I fall for you
sleep with wings
so I can learn to fly
carrying bags
hoping I would
take a ride
follow stars
they are in every glass
changing colours
so I can reach your grey eyes
do I fall for you
52 summers alive over night

TRACK LYRICS - LOVE AS NEW

left for new
loss for few
can't fight back
can't talk back
don't turn back
don't love back
serve for peace
serve you
left for new
loss for few
loss for you
love as new
serve for peace
serve you
solve for them
search for me
left for new
loss for few
loss for new

Love As New

Biljana Pais & Skydrips - Love as New [UYSR147]

Most people are aware of their existence. They can perceive time in relative terms and possess the ability to reflect on themselves and their actions.

The Gentlemensch does not align with societal norms, as these can vary greatly across the world. A handshake, for example, might mean something entirely different in one region than in the place where you were born. Time also plays a crucial role what was acceptable yesterday might be offensive tomorrow. The Gentlemensch, however, has detached from all of that. He acts from the depths of his soul, understands his place in nature, in the universe, and within the social fabric.

Unfortunately, history has shown that humanity often forgets what it was truly meant for: togetherness.

In the meta-text, I invite you to allow your softness to surface and to recognize the potential you hold not by becoming hardened, bitter, or walking through the world sad and depressed, but by laying down the first stone and saying: “Hey everyone, look I am gentle and joyful. Who wants to join me?”

Mankind

Skydrips - Gentlemensch

You can wear a thousand masks without ever dressing up. A game of expressions, gestures, and words can be nothing more than a facade, a shimmer, an illusion. A smile without joy. A tear without sorrow.
How are you? “Good!”
Nothing is as it seems - or at least, rarely is. Or is it?

Rude Boy loosely translated: misbehaving boy, troublemaker.
In this song, the character repeats these words to himself over and over, rapidly, almost as a mantra trying to believe them by force. It becomes an outward-facing shield meant to maintain its effect. This constant repetition continues until exhaustion sets in and only then can he begin to question everything.

It’s time to realize who he once was:
A boy.

Of course, this character is also a part of me. As an artist, the creative process is an ongoing act of questioning everything. An emotional rollercoaster.
Each new piece opens up new philosophical themes.
Am I still myself or have I become a reflection of the market?
Who could possibly grasp the thoughts and emotions flowing through my body when I stand on stage and perform my music?
What expectations do I project onto the music itself?

On social media, the mask fits perfectly. Always positive. Good vibes only!
That’s what I kept telling myself.
But life isn’t like that—and we can only truly appreciate and enjoy the light if we’re willing to look at, accept, and allow the dark as well.

Yin needs yang. Black needs white—and vice versa.
And that’s okay with me.
I’m happy being the grown man who still carries a child within 
embracing the full spectrum of emotion.Rather than following conventional narratives, @Skydrips embraces ambiguity and softness as acts of quiet strength. These tracks don’t shout. They listen. They ask. They shift between states of questioning and letting go, between social masks and personal truth, between the need to protect and the desire to connect.
This is music for those who feel out of step with the world yet deeply connected to something greater. It speaks to the ones who carry contradictions, who challenge fixed identities, and who believe that real transformation begins where defense mechanisms end.
Sonically subtle yet emotionally charged, the EP offers a soundscape where tension dissolves into introspection. With deep rhythms, atmospheric layers, and a voice that is more invitation than instruction, Skydrips invites the listener to pause, reflect, and gently reassemble themselves.

Skydrips - Distorted Boys

Contemporary Love is the first glimpse into @Skydrips' upcoming EP - a three-track journey that, for the first time, will feature his own voice (on other tracks). While this single remains instrumental, it sets the emotional tone: a deep, evolving piece that reflects on the question – can love itself be a form of anarchy?
Fans will recognize it as a subtle continuation of Contemporary Anarchy - capturing the process of being shaped, resisting, rising, and ultimately… offering love. With its signature blend of analog percussion, FM textures, and organic field recordings, Contemporary Love dives into that space where structure collapses into emotion.

Skydrips - Contemporary Love

Growing up in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, I’ve been accompanied by the sounds and spirit of the @3000-grad Festival - and the label behind it - since my youth. This year, I had the special honor of opening the Schatzinselfloor - and with it, the festival itself. 
Thanks to an invitation from the wonderful @Meeresrausch Festival crew & @Meeronautenmusik, this moment became even more special, connecting two kindred musical worlds.

The set flows between Chill House, Deep House, and Downtempo, woven with diverse drum grooves and warm dub elements.
Sometimes driving, sometimes gentle, always carrying a feeling of openness and a hint of sea breeze.

Skydrips - That blurry line between ocean and sky.
 
Growing up on the german coast, he always remembers the dip of the horizon while looking at the ocean. Skydrips captures adventures in nature which are the base for each of his tracks. Analogue synthesizers and digital effects are built on top until his signature trance sound comes alive.

Inspired by the free techno festivals in Mecklenburg where he observed how people got lost in the music led Skydrips to create music himself. Now he also wants to curate moments in which the audience might forget about the world.

Skydrips is an eternal dreamer living between the city of Berlin and its close-by nature. He can be found in his studio for days but also out in the plain nature doing nothing for the same amount of time.

These days everything is focused on creating music and performing it live.  Combining edits of his own tracks with spontaneous moments that can only be heard once. Meanwhile uncountable pieces of gear passes Skydrips hands, so there is constant change and alteration in his music that can be heard throughout the releases. 
 
The duality of this scenario resonates in each of his lovingly crafted dance tracks. You will always find a robotic groove paired with a light hearted trance theme contrasting as much as possible with each other.
The challenges of this twist might be heard in Skydrips tracks. That is why he believes in the energy that is being transmitted with his Music.
