💎 The Gemstone series is all about the artists we love, the ones we support and believe in.
With this series, we are going back to the roots of the Crépite philosophy: Discovering and sharing gems.

• Let the magic of our beloved Apaj work on you. His music will scrutinize each particle of your body and soul. This gemstone is really special for all of us as it is the very first live performance of this talented artist but also the first live of the series. If Crépite is a family, that means this podcast is a fruit of it.

The Gemstone #09 | apaj *live

I crafted this set for all the innocents who have suffered and died, for all the innocents being forcibly displaced from their homes, and for all the innocents who are starving to death.

I am deeply sorry that we have failed you.

I struggle to find the words to express my feelings. As we watch the news, witnessing the senseless murders of children and women, witnessing entire populations being forcibly removed from their land, and witnessing ethnic cleansing happening before our very eyes, and still, we can't help but feel a profound sense of helplessness. We speak of freedom, love, and hope, yet suddenly, the world falls into silence. It's in these moments that we realize humanity has failed.

-Educate yourselves 
-Be Careful with the News 
-SPEAK-UP!

Chameleon #70, recorded live at the BeYond event Garden of Delights by true nature, is a sonic journey designed to balance opposites. With smooth, soothing tones at its core, the set invites listeners into a space of stillness and grounding. Yet, beneath this calm lies a gentle invitation toward lighter, elevated vibes.

Down From Another Town takes us on a journey through seductive sounds and atmospheric rhythms. This mix invites you to dive deep into a world of soft, organic melodies and hypnotic beats, floating through the soundscape like morning mist in a distant town. It's perfect for those seeking a calm, sensual vibe where time seems to stand still. A mix that slows down the everyday pace and tells new stories with every note.

Embrace the art of slowing down and let yourself be carried away by this sonic adventure.

Reflecting on the Sofacast journey reminds me of just how magical this project has been. So many DJs have led us through the depths of electronic music, uncovering hidden gems from a vast sea of talented producers, each with their own unique voice. It’s a celebration of music, creativity, and the passion that connects us all.

As we reach the 100th episode, instead of a big spectacle, I opted for something more intimate. My dear friend and seasoned DJ, Backhaus, brings his signature touch to this special mix—proof that sometimes less truly is more.

Thank you for being part of this musical voyage. Here’s to many more adventures together.

This is what I’ve been working towards lately, and I couldn’t have wished for a better time & place to share it for the very first time. Creating and playing this Live Set was absolute fun, and the entire process has been an incredible learning experience.

A huge thank you to my loved ones for supporting me on this journey.
Special thanks to @kauzmusik , @slow_love , and the wonderful @kollektiv-equilibria – your encouragement means a lot to me. 

Enjoy <3

Time folds upon itself like a living geometry, where shadow and light, order and chaos, converse in a dialect older than memory. Moments stretch and compress, revealing hidden patterns that vibrate beneath perception. Within these invisible laws, existence pulses: a sequence of thought and energy where every silence is measured, every movement reflects eternity. The cosmos whispers its algorithm, and the mind, willingly or unwillingly, learns to follow the rhythm of infinity.

Sacred Algorithm
