And what better timing than to bring a slice filled with summer feel goods to get you right in the mood for freedom day ❤️

Big thanks again to CZN for providing the perfect slice for July. You can check out more from him below:

Soma harnesses the power of poetic cadence to deliver a single of extraordinary charm that weaves a sonic tapestry of exquisite grace. Elegant, hypnotic vocals incorporated with multi-instrumental artistry layered over downtempo funky beats combine to create symphonic allure.

PREMIERE : Tribu Oro - Space Cruise [Sofa Beats]

This story is about us and the journey we undertake as the mythological archetypes which these songs represent.
We start as "RAMA".
The exiled one who carries a burning sense
of longing for sacredness. 
This eruptive energy wants to burn everything that is not serving us anymore. Through the singing of the mantra,
we tune ourselves back into the harmony of the universe.
Along the way we meet "SALMA". She playfully invites us to her nomadic tent in the middle of the desert. Here, we are comforted by her warmth and tenderness. Here, we are at peace.
Feeling energised and full of ecstasy we then embody the heavenly light of "KRISHNA".
The supreme beauty and bliss of life.
Now that we understand the dance of the Universe, we are ready to enter the path of the WANDERING SAGE
Welcome to the Initiation

PREMIERE : Tayr Anour - Rama  (Original Mix)[Sofa Beats] * OUT TODAY *

The song is about the infinite abundance and joy one discovers when surrendered to the true inner essence. The sound attempts to capture that  ecstatic moment of eternal peace, cosmic truth, the new dawn of transformation.

The creation of Morning Prayer has been a collaboration between the Takkra crew and the Hungarian producer Cord. Synth lines, vocal melodies, bass lines have been swapped around, inspired other parts and fuelled the creative process throughout, resulting in two extraordinary mixes. The genre is an eclectic blend of world bass, psyfolk, drawing from Hungarian folk heritage, but still remaining true to both parties' strong psychedelic roots.

OUT NOW - PREMIERE : Morning Prayer (Cords Sunyata Mix)

Sabda's music resounds of sophistication and suave. Finessed with melodically infused Middle Eastern influences and sublime vocals, these elegant tracks will snake charm dancers into a sexy groove on any chill stage.

PREMIERE : Sabda - Fuyu  (Original Mix)

It took me a year to decide to share the set. I'm not happy with some of the transitions but would still like to share it because the music selection needs to be shared. Thanks to the great artists with their works. Thanks to Lando Langsam, Saskia, Kevin, Max, Peter, Saritah... and the rest of the gang for standing by and dancing and dreaming.

This Is Acid Jazz Groove... by Dj OBD Aka Oliver

On a magical sunday morning playing at Bucht der Träumer* surrounded by beautiful people and kind souls, it was a dream come true.
I never imagined myself playing at a big festival like that when I first started mixing. Music has shown me a new way to connect with people and has brought so much joy in to my life!

A Special thank you goes out to @kollektiv-wintergarten and my lovely camp for all the support and the energy you brought to the dancefloor!
Thanks to the wonderful people from the @synthesis-festival crew for inviting me and taking such good care of me and making this unforgetable experience possible in the first place.

Enjoy the ride and take care ✨

ALL LIGHT

Après vous avoir remercié d’être de plus en plus nombreux à me suivre dans cette aventure musicale, laissez moi vous présenter le 4ème volet de mon projet Collection.

Même s’ils sont tous hauts en couleurs, variés en termes de provenances, de styles et d’époques, chacun des voyages que je vous propose a un cachet qui lui est propre et qui fait écho aux autres compilations de la série. 

Après avoir réuni tous les sons de cette quatrième sélection, je me suis rendu compte que ce sont surtout les années 2000 qui sont ici à l’honneur… et que ce nouvel opus a un fil conducteur très cinématographique. 

En effet, j’y propose quelques musiques utilisées dans des films grands publics tels que Les Gardiens de la Galaxie ou Mad Dog. J’y associe des mises en scène bruitées, à l’instar de l’introduction du mix représentant le hall d’un théâtre lors de l’entrée du spectacle, ou cette ambiance de gare et de trains qui tire un trait d’union entre Nightmares On Wax et la fabuleuse chanson de Diana Ross “Love Hangover” remixée par Frankie Knuckles.

Pour accentuer cette facette, les mélodies de tous les titres choisis font passer l’ambiance de la joie à la mélancolie et le montage raconte une riche histoire qui pourrait vous inspirer des images et des scènes. 

Les versions tantôt acoustiques, tantôt remixées, tantôt reprises par d’autres artistes, créent le décalage et l’appétence que je veux porter dans mon projet, en permettant de vous faire redécouvrir des thèmes et des chansons gravés dans nos esprits. 

Je vous encourage à écouter ce nouveau voyage musical jusqu’à son terme, car je le clôture par un mashup osé, dans lequel j’expose un montage entre un morceau de house percutant et puissant de 2019 et un thème que j’affectionne particulièrement de J.S Bach composé en 1730.

Je vous souhaite une belle aventure et - je l’espère - de bonnes découvertes.

Collection 004

That Escalated Slowly With Saygin

We all know this moment - you are lying in bed with a loved one and the world stands still.

You put on some music to set the scene for rising temperatures under the sheets…

The set you put on suddenly brings you out of rhythm, but getting up to skip the track is no longer an option.

We have been scouting for the perfect Sunday morning sets for quite a while already and while "Eigentlich heissen wir Klaus" & "Mattmosphere" have been steady suppliers of them for us, we also developed the idea of asking befriended artists to record one hour of music, to which they like to stay in bed with a loved one.

It's an intimate ask, but most of them said yes.

Cuddle Cast #17 comes from Amsterdan-based @ssuzen, who is releasing an EP with us this Summer.

It is a great first showcase of his musical skills and a perfect Easter Sunday journey. 

So grab your special person, get cosy, press play and be ready to let the love birds fly ❤️
