Sundays are for… Lilli Zylka
 
This morning we are joined by Berlin based DJ and curator Lilli Zylka. Whether through her Bluets series on Operator Radio, or her contributions to Radio Punctum, her ambient mixes have a distinct feeling and flow that sets them apart. Today is no different, so sit back, take a sip of your coffee or tea and enjoy the textures and sounds...

Release Date: March 4, 2021
Pre-order: https://theorytherapy.bandcamp.com/album/the-best-people-are-like-water

Theory Therapy’s first cassette release comes from Concave Reflection aka Tommy Paslaski, one-third of Chicago-based group Purelink.

Calm but rarely completely beatless, The Best People Are Like Water hovers in the interstice between the club and the comedown. The tape consists of 11 immersive tracks that split the difference between atmospheric downtempo and hypnagogic ambient. Side A is predominantly beat-based, channeling the best elements of ’90s chillout room music, while side B is a more celestial affair — the aural equivalent of noctilucent clouds swirling slowly in the sky.

The album displays many of the qualities found in Purelink's music — syncopated breakbeats, pristinely mixed drums and airy atmospherics — but an added sense of intimacy runs across its 11 tracks. Paslaski has described his process as "layering and layering until I have a cohesive thought, then sometimes playing my loop pedal cello stuff over it and seeing where it takes me". This improvisational approach translates into an album that feels aleatory, organic and extremely personal, as though it was produced by some arcane and abstract method, like wind roiling midnight air or slowly crystallising water.

The Best People Are Like Water was mastered by Joseph Buchan aka Other Joe. Ben (kindtree) consulted on mixing for the A side. All tracks were written and produced by Tommy Paslaski.

There are a limited run of 50 cassettes, all made from recycled materials.

TTT001: Concave Reflection - 'The Best People Are Like Water' (Snippets)

Living Room n°28 ~ @malvern-brume

q. pls introduce yourself

I'm Rory, I live in South East London, spend a good deal of time working with sounds and putting various names in front of it, but mainly do things as Malvern Brume. I run a small label with my good friend Ben Waggett called Infant Tree and do all sorts of other stuff in and around those things.

q. is there a story behind the mix?

Not sure there's much of a story in terms of a narrative but usually when approaching these things, unless i've got a burning urge to do something specific, its a case of playing the music i've been listening to most at that given time (which is why in most of my mixes you'll hear something to do with Af Ursin or Karla Borckey because I seem to listen to them all the time!). I find I fall quite easily into listening to music that reflects how I'm feeling, as I'm sure most do so it's nice to have a document of it to look back on. I like music that challenges me and my perception of what I would deem to be good. Quite often I find things like the music I've played at the start of the mix to be confronting, something to do with the minimal instrumentation and probably some emotional entanglement. I think writing about sound can be an impossibly difficult thing to do and there's very few people who do a good job of it (in my opinion) so I'm hesitant to say too much! haha

q. what's the best way to enjoy your mix?

All the music I've picked is stuff I've listened to whilst walking or cycling so I'd say that would be one suggestion. I really enjoy the disturbances and interactions that come from listening in a less controlled listening environment, especially when you come across tones that oscillate against what's happening in the music. Walking is a really important part of the Malvern Brume stuff in general. Most of the music for it is based on walks I've done or graphic scores I've made whilst walking. When I'm listening back to the recordings it's usually when walking that I decide whether to do something with it or not.

q. describe a favorite object in your living room

I've got a painting by Ben Waggett who does Infant Tree with me (it's titled Shoreham Hovel https://www.victorwaggett.co.uk/threeanchorites/). I love it, I think I asked Ben for it when he was finishing uni and hope it stays with me forever. I live in a shared house with some friends so it's probably the most sentimental thing I keep down here (I'm in the living room now)

q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

Yeah, I've got a few things on the go. Next thing to surface will be a tape for Kashual Plastik, which may even be out by the time this surfaces (Last track in the mix is from this tape). Very stoked to be working with my friend Frank to get that music out and I'm really happy with how it sounds. Myself and Sholto Dobie have been editing some recordings we made when I was in Vilnius to see where that will go, which I'm excited about (again I played one of the tracks in this mix). There's another release lined up with some music I made early 2020, not sure when that will surface but it's in the works, and then I've started recording some new MB stuff and am working on some music for different projects. I like to take pictures and recordings of bird houses I find on walks so i'll be keeping that up for sure and maybe one day i'll do something with that, and there's some other work i've been doing with walking and graphic scores for a couple years now but i'm in no rush to share that just yet!

Experimental sound artist KMRU(@kamarujoseph)is a master of quietness. His music is as much about empty space as it is the delicate field recordings that fill it in. The Kenyan artist has been perfecting this balancing act from his base in Berlin, most notably on 2020 full-length Peel. It's a record of slowly unfolding synth beauty and drawn-out drone mindfulness. Soft focus chords bleed and blend into one another like different shades of watercolour paint and the environmental nature of the sound sources lends it a gorgeously natural atmosphere.
For this week's most meditative mix, KMRU puts together an hour of soothing sound in a painterly fashion. It is unhurried but always going somewhere thanks to a gentle underlapping rhythm, expansive synth arc or little hiss of static. What sounds like distant vocal calls drift in and out of the mix which at times is like a recording from the furthest recess of the cosmos, at others the pleasant ambiance you might hear out of a Berlin window on a sunny afternoon.

Sundays are for… Ocram Orchestra

Sundays in general are a pivotal part of all lives. For many, they announce the end of a period of relaxation, for others the beginning.The former, acts as a grasp of levity and escapism, the other a breakage from the grip of a banal day to day. Today’s mix is quite special as it encompasses the passion, direction, and style of Ocram Orchestra who guides us through an intensely personal interpretation of the above. This mix adds a layer of reflection and introspection not often seen. Today is Sunday, and the morning is for Ocram Orchestra…

Today I am happy to share the latest edition of Deep Mind Music. This one is a live recording of the set I played on the 8th of May at Sonic Garden, sat on a very comfy sofa in the tree-covered terrace of IKLECTIK in South London 🌱

Many thanks to @avsluta & Christian Duka (@dvka) of Amoenus for the invite, it was a joy to play an extended set to such an engaged audience of listeners. The Amoenus sound system at IKLECTIK also has to be the most beautiful system I’ve ever played ambient music through, everything sounded so crisp and warm.

This set features a lot of the ambient and experimental music I’ve been enjoying lately, with an extended expedition into the ~dronezone~ (🖤)

There are some special tracks in here I treasure very dearly, and I’m happy they found a home in this mix. Whilst selecting these tracks, I was reflecting on the energies of spring, that shifting feeling of shedding off the last of winter’s introspection, whilst reaching forward into summer’s vibrant energy. I hope the mix provides a dreamy and expansive landscape for drifting away 🦋🍃🌤

Nexcyia is making his debut on the radio with a mix recorded on a quiet sunny day, proposing some of his favorite ambient affiliates.

Theory Therapy 39 is a strangely beautiful balm of textural drifts and atmospheric leftfield by Alma G. Ferrer aka Mim. 

Based in Mexico City, Alma is an art historian and founder of Mitamine Lab, one of the longest-running and best mix series I can think of. She’s also a unique selector and musical storyteller so we're very happy to have her contribute to Theory Therapy.

There’s so much love in this mix. It was recorded in Mim's mum’s garden while they both recovered from COVID and there's a playful, almost psychedelic quality to it. “I can't smoke or drink so this has been a mix created between plants, medicines, coffee, tea and lots of elderberry gummies.”
