A resident at Athens based Revolt! party series and just a truly great DJ, Anestie has been cutting his teeth playing alongside some of the brightest names in our scene on a regular basis. Fresh off his release on Project London Records, this fellow is versatile enough to go from deep to trippy tech and minimal like a real smooth operator, and this mix is a perfect showcase of his abilities. 

Welcome to  "Ears Wide Open" #2 - Anestie Gomez.

o•rbyss aims to help soothe the queer spectrum and focus on the well-being of the community. Queer DJs are invited to submit a mix to showcase an alternative side to their music library outside of a rave and take us on a meditative journey. ✨

Notes on the mix:

"This mix sets off with immersive ambient soundscapes before gradually evolving into soothing downtempo sounds and beats. It is a journey through space and time, weaving together music from across four decades, spanning from 1986 to the present. The selection highlights artists from around the globe (from Japan to Egypt, Brazil, Austria and beyond) while also honoring voices of different diasporas. This mix is also a very personal one. I dug into my old CD collection to unearth tracks that have marked pivotal moments in my life, songs I’ve taken solace in, and sounds that have shaped my musical path."

Born in Buenos Aires (ARG) to Cape Verdean families, Rumi's DJ sets reflect the richness of musical influences that have shaped him since an early age with jazz, Brazilian and African music being omnipresent during his childhood.

In the early 2000s, inspired by the likes of Masters At Work and Kerri Chandler, Rumi started his journey into djing while studying and living in Florida. Many years of academic work and some relocations later, things started to take a serious turn after moving to Vienna in 2016. Initially immersed in the local ballroom scene, Rumi soon discovered his tribe of house music enthusiasts, culminating in the inception of "A Party Called Jack" – a collective and revered dance event in Vienna that celebrates house music and its origins in funk, soul, and disco. In 2021, Rumi also co-founded GAZE, an event and platform dedicated to amplifying the "queer gaze" within electronic music, visual arts, live performances, and fashion. GAZE has since then become a cornerstone of Vienna's LGBTQI+ community, inviting local talents, international DJ acts and collaborating with several festivals.

While Rumi might find his musical homebase in house, his versatility becomes apparent in the way he effortlessly navigates between disco, breaks, and techno as well. His DJ sets are infused with jazz nuances, soulful vocals, and Afro-Latin rhythms: the sounds of his childhood. His musical diversity is also documented in his heart project "GEMS", a radio show with contributions on RES radio (Vienna) and Refuge Worldwide (Berlin). With a decade-long background in social research, Rumi's musical endeavors resonate beyond the dancefloor, offering a unique fusion of sociocultural exploration and sonic innovation.

We asked friends of Stólar: What kind of music lives inside the Steam Chair by Bae Se-Hwa?
A poetic silence folded into walnut grain,
an artistic echo shaped by steam,
a musical breath that bends time. 
Where tradition hums softly into the future.

A closing set is always something special, and here is no exception. Thorgerdur (@thorgerdur-johanna) saw Space out with just over 3 hours of playful progressive wizardry. It’s deep whilst remaining ecstatic, charged; an ode to dancing impulses.

Hi all! More than happy to share the sixth Hyperborea session, featuring guest @ricardotobar. An artist whose work has been a deep influence through the years, bringing inspiration with his signature sonic character.

In this mix Ricardo has built a hypnotic meditation with long transitions and textured layers, inviting listeners to close their eyes and quiet the incessant movement of news and time, entering a slower, timeless flow of sound.

Alongside the mix, there is also an interview where he shares thoughts on his process and approach. You can listen to the mix and read the interview now at https://futurenevercomes.net
