About this journey :
"*As the new year dawns, a dance begins,
Hold my hands, let the rhythm wins.

In the cadence of time, our journey's flight,
Through destinations unknown, bathed in starlight.

Hand in hand, we'll travel far and wide,
In the book of adventures, side by side.

In moonlit shadows, where dreams take flight,
Hold my hands, let's dance through the night.

In every chapter, through every page,
Experiencing life in a new age.

Lets hold our hands, our journey starts,
An endless symphony, of all our hearts."*

On the day of the winter solstice, Hekske (the little witch) had a vivid dream about her friends the wolves of the Gugu Peak, the enigmatic mountain in the Godeanu ridge which mysteriously disappears every now and then. She looked at Falke (the 10 year old witch apprentice) who was still sleeping underneath their cozy moss blanket … and smiling while sleeping. A few minutes later Falke woke up and enthusiastically told Hekske that she had a vivid dream about their friends the wolves of the Gugu Peak. Now that was strange. And the next nights it became even stranger as the witches kept on dreaming about the Carpathian wolves, every night in a different location and every night a bit closer to the witch’s forest, leaving Transylvania and passing by lake Balaton before crossing the snowy peaks of the Styrian Alps. Night after night, their collective dream became more and more vivid while Hekske and Falke snuggled close to each other under the warm moss blanket in the rainy and soggy winter forest. After passing through the Black Forest and crossing the River Rhine, the wolves ran day and night until they finally reached the Dender river, which they followed downstream while enduring the lashing rains and gale force winds. The normally gentle flow of the Dender river had transformed into a wild torrent which had flooded the entire valley.
That morning Hekske and Falke woke up very early as they sensed that their friends were now really close by. And just before sunrise, the girls heard the all-pervading howl of a wolf in the distance. The elated witches ran through the mud of the soggy woods, and encountered the wolves at the edge of the beech forest. They gave a long fluffy hug to all the ebullient wolves. When the initial euphoria had abated, the girls noticed how thin and emaciated the wolves were. They hadn’t eaten for a whole week. 
Hekske and Falke took the wolves straight to the nymph’s pond, where they all took a bath in the frigid water. Despite the cold, the water was really pleasant and they stayed for a really long time in the pool, playing with each other all the time. They hadn’t even noticed that meanwhile the rain had stopped. Finally, they decided to get out of the water. The winter sun had broken through the clouds and the witches and wolves dried their bodies in the soft sunlight. Miraculously, the wolves suddenly looked strong and well-fed again, and their fur was glistening and fluffy.
The Carpathians wolves stayed in the witch’s forest for over a week, while the temperatures plunged below zero and an immaculately white snow carpet covered the witch’s forest, creating an enchanted atmosphere. During the freezing cold nights, the wolves and the witches huddled together and kept each other warm. And every day, they took a collective bath in the nymph’s pond and every time the wolves came out of the water stronger and fiercer than the day before.
Finally, the wolves were strong enough and time had come to return to the Carpathians. Hekske and Falke gave one last hug to all their fluffy friends, promising to visit them back in Dacia next summer, on the slopes of the enigmatic Gugu Peak which mysteriously disappears every now and then …

It was mid-January in the witch’s forest, and after the floods came the sudden cold. It was freezing day and night, and the nymph’s pond was covered with ice. And after the first snowstorm since 3 years, the whole forest was covered with an immaculately white carpet of snow. Everything had gone silent.
But the next day, the sun was finally shining and despite the subzero temperatures, Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the 10-year old witch apprentice) decided to take a dive in the nymph’s pond. While making as little noise as possible, they broke the ice and waded into the crystal clear water. Despite the cold, the water felt as pleasant and revitalizing as ever.
Meanwhile, Lalita (the Asian nymph) was already preparing a delicate massage oil in her little cauldron using spices from her home country of Sri Lanka.  She had prepared the oil according to an old ayurvedic recipe which had been passed on from nymph to nymph for over 2500 years.
By the time the massage oil was ready and had cooled down to the ideal temperature, the witches had finished their bath and Hekske lied down on her belly on a comfortable soft bed of moss, waiting for what was about to come.
Given the freezing temperatures, Lalita didn’t waste much time and poured the first few drops of the warm ayurvedic oil on the little witch’s legs, after which she gently rubbed the oil into her soft skin, while the sophisticated scent of cinnamon and cardamom spread through the forest.  The massage oil quickly warmed up her feet and legs, until her whole body was glowing while her mind slowly drifted away in a state of deep relaxation. 
Strangely, the air on her skin gradually changed from ice-cold to tropically hot. And the quiet winter forest was suddenly lush and green and bustling with life. The little witch listened to a spellbinding concert of unknown song birds, like the yigüirro and the quetzal. And in the distance she heard the calming sound of the Nauyaca Waterfall. This place felt like a true garden of Eden.
Meanwhile the massage was still going on, deeper and more soothing than ever. While still keeping her eyes closed, Hekske was trying to figure out who was massaging her now. She tuned in to the energy field of the man who was giving her the massage. Never before had she felt so many different layers of energy, each layer deeper and more sophisticated than the previous one. Finally she connected with the purest energy she had ever felt, while her whole body and soul drifted towards complete ecstasy. This massage touched her to the deepest part of her soul …

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this edition we welcome Oondza (@oondza)

Oondza is an electronic music duo based in the Laurentians region of Québec, north of Montréal. Known for their open-minded approach and fearless exploration of sonic landscapes, Oondza seamlessly blends individual influences to create a distinct sound that transcends genres. 

Fueled by a shared passion for heavy bass lines and hypnotic rhythms, Oondza's musical journey aims to blur the lines between downtempo and techno, inviting listeners to join them on an otherworldly adventure.

Oondza's commitment to pushing the envelope extends beyond their studio wizardry. With each track, they beckon listeners to join them on a transcendental voyage, where the destination is as elusive as the beats are infectious. It's more than music; it's a cosmic dance that blurs the lines between reality and imagination.

Here are a few words from the artists:

This set represents our path since we started Oondza in 2019. We've blended our original music with tracks from artists we've collaborated with, respect, admire, and who've shaped our sound. We hope you enjoy the journey.

Oondza [Journey Series]

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.

@iris_anahata is a member of the @somethingslow family and she created a beautiful journey for those Sunday mornings that we love.

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

Cuddle Cast # 13 - Iris Anahata

We are happy to welcome @aka_tony, the curator of the Aka-Tapes podcast series and a swiss downtempo connoisseur, to the @bitmalschritt podcast!

Have fun with this dark downtempo set!

Having been attending Origin Festival for over a decade, this was a dream booking come true! South Africa's premier psychedelic festival and I had the honour of kicking the Beats Floor off on Saturday morning. It was an early start just after 8am, so I selected tracks to ease everyone into their day: whether they were grooving on the floor, lounging next to the river a couple meters away having their morning swim or chilling in their campsites just over the river, this selection was bound to get them ready for the madness of the day that lay ahead.

The mix features a ton of new releases as well as some throwback classics (both tracks that make regular appearances in my sets and a couple I haven't played for a while). I hope you enjoy listening back to this as much as I had putting it together and playing it. And big thanks for all the love from the dancefloor and those that made it out - was so epic seeing you all moving and having fun out there!

KataHaifisch Podcast 359 - Laaar Hybrid Live Set

In 2004, legendary and genre-defining Danish label Iboga Records donned their slippers and smoking jackets, reclined, and cozily launched a new sub-label: Sofa Beats. The idea was to broadcast their previously unprofessed love for the myriad of shades and styles that make up mid-tempo and downtempo electronic music. 

Sofa Beats is run from Copenhagen by the laidback yet discerning A&R Alexander Descroix. The chill out legion of Sofa Beats aficionado is secretly among you in every corner of the world, rhythmically nodding to his headphones, quietly content and in-the-know. 

Sofa Beats abides by their motto: 
A COMFORTABLE MULTIVERSE OF SOUND

Going slow since 2004
