There’s something profoundly healing in the music of French duo Javier Salazar, whose output embodies the true medicinal power of sound. 

This mix takes our mind’s eye into the sunshine - grass between our toes, spliff in hand - as we get intimate with the scoops, wrapped in a warm, enveloping blanket of sound.

We hope this beautiful contribution brings you an hour of peace, just as it has for us many times over the past month. Thanks, Leo & Simon <3

Spira invites @solmadj

Paris-based producer and DJ, and co-founder of Virtual Forest Records, Solma draws inspirations from the hypnotic aesthetics of modern deep techno and the vibrant energy of UK bass to shape a unique style that explores psychedelic territories where genre boundaries dissolve and textures take center stage. 

From high-energy sets to immersive live performances, Solma explores the full spectrum of electronic music — from introspection to dancefloor momentum. With a steadily growing catalog of high-quality releases, he continues to push boundaries and refine his identity.

While Solma is known for fast-paced rhythms and psychedelic synthlines, this time he masterfully explores the slower, deeper side of techno — presenting a one-hour mix for Spira Records that drifts through dub textures and meditative grooves.

Operating at the frontiers of electronic music, Spekki Webu stands apart as a true architect of his own sonic universe. The visionary behind the Mirror Zone label and a highly prolific producer, his work - including an excellent debut album last year - is a testament to a relentless pursuit of the new, sculpting a sound that is both boundary pushing and universally mind-altering.

Offering some insight into the deeply personal and experimental nature of this deep trip, the Dutch maestro explains:

“This mix is mainly music by myself, upcoming music on the label and some unreleased tunes by friends. I have been exploring lots of different tempo's the last few months and also been reprocessing a lot of field recordings which have been layered a lot in this mix. You can almost say that this is a hybrid mix where I am live layering field recordings and processing them in real time. But the main focus is of course the DJ part. Slowly unfolding and blending from chapter to chapter, I don't engage my mixes as mixes anymore, more like this feeling of reading a few pages from my personal book.

Minimalistic movements drowned in wider atmospheric arrangements within this story. A lot of this music in this mix has been made in the last months and dives into introspective moments. Blurring textures which have felt like clouded moments in my consciousness, like living in some sort of dream and moving on to the next stage. Preparing for changes. Waiting for new movements.”

With "Vivarium", Vienna-based live duo Mitra present their debut release and their first contribution to IO Records. Known for their immersive performances and site-responsive sound explorations, Mitra translate the raw intensity and spatial awareness of their live practice into a studio recording for the very first time.

The seven-track EP unfolds as a carefully composed sonic ecosystem. Each piece functions as a distinct organism within a living structure, contributing to a sound world that feels both precise and unpredictable. Rooted in deep listening, low-end exploration, and rhythmic subtlety, Vivarium invites audiences into an environment that is in constant transformation.

Rather than relying on fixed arrangements or traditional song structures, the tracks evolve gradually. Textures shift, patterns emerge and dissolve, and moments of stillness meet waves of tension. While firmly grounded in experimental sound design, Vivarium also reveals a sense of physicality and movement. The duo’s background in their live act is present throughout, channeling the energy of their performances into compositions that retain their organic, tactile quality.

Vivarium is more than a debut. It is an invitation to enter Mitra’s sonic world. It is a space shaped by intuition, presence, and the fluid relationship between listener, sound, and environment. With this release, Mitra opens a new chapter in their artistic trajectory, offering a compelling glimpse into the evolving potential of their sound.

this week on the 909 mix series forest on stasys brings a wormhole of locked-in grooves, percussive-driven rhythms & spacey soundscapes that exist around the sweet spot of 135pm ~ filled with that sweaty sensual late night energy. the buenos aires-based dj & producer shares, “i recently closed the night at the danza nativa showcase at under club and was quite inspired by the connection that was created with the crowd. so, you'll find minimalist techno at 135 bpm with energetic, deep, and abstract passages.”

that 90s-esque minimalist techno sound is something that forest on stasys has become renowned for within his own productions on labels such as space lab, hyphen records, crescent london, harmony records, lowless, accent records and worst records to name a few. alongside this, forest on stasys runs and curates the label aura sonora which recently released a record by dyl & tammo hesselink and he’s also part of the danza nativa crew which he has been co-running alongside alderaan and kyntral since 2018.

Minimal techno at 112 BPM with a steady, dry 4/4 kick, subtle sub-bass, crisp hi-hats, and tight percussive loops, The oud plays repetitive, plucked phrases with natural resonance and slight microtonal inflections, blending organically with the groove, No melodic lead, just evolving textures and rhythmic interplay between electronic elements and the oud, Sparse delays and reverb, used tastefully to keep the atmosphere minimal and focused, No vocals, no cinematic or industrial elements — pure stripped-back groove with a touch of traditional warmth.
