“Life starts to look like one great big
movie, and you are the unmoved Witness watching the show. Happiness
arises, you witness it; joy arises, you witness it; pain arises, you witness
it; sorrow arises, you witness it. In all cases, you are the Witness, and
not some passing surface wave of silly sound and fury. At the center of
the cyclone, you are safe. A deep and inward peace begins to haunt you;
you can no longer manufacture turmoil with quite the same conviction.
But that doesn’t mean that you can’t feel desire, hurt, pain, joy, happi¬
ness, suffering, or sorrow. You can still feel all of those; they just don’t
convince you. Again, it’s like being at the movies. Sometimes you get so
caught up in what is happening on screen that you forget it’s just a
movie. At a thriller, you might actually become frightened; at a romance,
you might start crying. Then your friend leans over and says. Hey,
lighten up, it’s just a movie, it’s not real! And you snap out of it.” - ken wilber 1996

A slow-building current that draws you inward, then sweeps you away. Jorg traces the fluid line between tension and release, stitching together deep percussion, dubwise textures, and submerged melodies that shimmer just beneath the surface. This is sound designed to move like water: patient, powerful, and impossible to pin down.

Need something to listen to en route to FM? Toshiki Ohta has got you covered

As both a meticulous technician and a built-in-the-90s raver, Toshiki Ohta is the kind of DJ who can mega-mix his way out of the tightest genre corner. Which is handy, because his gift to FM this year is a near-three-hour mix crafted entirely from this year’s line-up – a task so excessively awkward you have to wonder if there’s some sort of masochistic kink going on here.

Now the risk, obviously, is completing the task to the letter only to deliver a rizzless plodathon of C-tier tunes and awkward transitions. But this is Tosh we’re talking about: no half measures! The result is monument to the moment: hoving into view under a fog of ambient Midland, it starts heady and heads-y, flowing through chuggy electro (auratekh, Lena Willikens) and rugged club tesselations (Ikonika, Prince of Deptford) before hitting a shinier seam of techno intensity (Roza Terenzi, Benton) and exploding into confetti cannon rave (Angel D’Lite, Big Ang).

Unsurprisingly, Tosh rates it as one of the most time-consuming sets he’s ever put together (including his recent eight-hour Goodhood mix). “It was a massive researching process – there were spreadsheets,” he sighs, “because I treat every mix that I do like I’m recording a mix CD in 1995.” Standing O, please!

All i see is you

There is no one quite like Dave Huismans, aka A Made Up Sound. The Dutchman, who's of course also known as 2562, has been in a musical world of his own ever since he first turned heads with his debut in 2006. As of that decade, he has continued to confound expectation and operate away from any prevailing trends, mostly on his own self titled label, but also for other cult outlets like Clone, Trilogy Tapes, and Delsin, where he just dropped his newest release. His music toys with convention, finds rhythm in unknown places and cooks up textures you didn’t think were possible. Broken and abstract yet absorbing and emotive; his sound is a left-field marriage of techno, bass and electro that has proven impossible to imitate. 

Over the course of ninety minutes, The Hague man showcases his penchant for kinked grooves and for high pressure drums. He manages to be maximalist and in your face one moment, then subtle and subversive at others. From disco to electro and techno, it’s all here. It all creates a rugged, seat-of-your-pants ride that throws up plenty of curveballs along the way.
