DJ SETS - Sound Metaphors Djs (Castro & Nemo)

Deep House Set  at Club Joule Osaka 2024.05.02 /On Larry Heard aka Mr. Fingers Japan Tour 2024

Sound Metaphors (@sound-metaphors) is Nemo Ripoll and Castro Moore, but it is also the name of their famously well-curated label and record shop in Berlin. As such the pair has been helping to define the sound of the underground on many different fronts - electric DJ sets, cult events and even through the custom-made sound systems built for customers worldwide. With a vast musical knowledge between them and a never-ending supply of their own unreleased edits and DJ tools, they are able to tell musical stories that draw from all across all genres and many different eras.

That plays out in the superb mix they have put together for us this week. It's a full-bodied selection that shows off their love of contrasting styles - loose, percussive house music brushes up with deep and dubby cuts, dark acid grooves sit next to '80s synth sounds before a disco finish goes from stomping to funky. The exuberance of it all is infectious and leaves you wanting more.

It is clear that the environment fostered by this platform functions around a radical notion of sharing that involves many layers of our beings, from what we are and do to what we have and want. After all, this is how we link up with people hailing from every corner of the planet, regardless of how far away we are from each other, artists and listeners alike. More than a meeting place, this is a mingling space for anyone willing to partake in the principle that guides this collective endeavour, the same that allows us to share a lot more than a few seasonal commonalities with our current guest. Thus, beyond the fact that we experience similar weather cycles at the same time of the year, we found plenty of connective elements with the musicality of this gifted Aussie selector that prompted us to invite her to add some of it to our ever expanding mosaic of mixes and what Evie brought to the collection is nothing short of everything wonderful we already expected. What we have here is an adventurous admixture of grooves and textures that packs enough energy to traverse the globe back and forth.

"Inspired by the first traces of spring on a sunny Saturday in Berlin, the mix starts slow and atmospheric, gradually moves into a romantic mood aka “Spanish romance”, and ends with heavenly Gregoryan songs. Some new discoveries, some oldies and a record from my dad's collection. Strictly on vinyl." Llupe

Hyperterranean #029 with DJ Brada

Next up in our mix series is Shoal, a Dutch producer and DJ who recently relocated to Prague. Known for his hypnotic, emotionally layered sound, Shoal crafts deep, transportive journeys through trippy textures, modular synthesizers, and rolling rhythms. A core member of the ISOTOOP collective, he’s performed at leading underground spots like De School, Tresor, and Ratherlost. His releases on labels like Tikita, Harmony Recordings, Monument, our own Ute.Rec, and most recently Animalia, continue to expand and refine his unique sonic voice within the scene.

In this mix, Shoal delivers a 1.5-hour live set full of acid-dripping techno, spacey atmospheres, and heads-down minimalism. It’s a slow-burning, carefully building mix that captures the raw live sounds and subtle depth that define his sound. A live-set working just as much the mind as the body.

With the dog days of summer in full swing, we're really excited to welcome Iffie from Athens as our special guest for the 316th episode of the Deep Breakfast Series.

Iffie is a dj & founder of “Into The Abyss” podcast series, based in Athens.
Her sound explores dark and deep elements with an affinity for modern techno.
She loves making her sets as cohesive as possible, intertwining ambient & deep techno by leaving no room for sudden transitions.
In 2020 she founded “Into The Abyss”. Through her widely-acclaimed platform she contributes to the scene with podcasts & premieres of new releases, promoting & supporting various artists & labels.

About the mix:
"This one hour mix moves through ambient and experimental sounds with a personal touch. It was recorded during a time of change, and that feeling shaped the flow. The mood is emotional and reflective, built around soft textures, slow shifts and quiet intensity. It’s less about structure and more about capturing a moment. It’s a huge pleasure to contribute something to the Deep Breakfast Series."
