Mad Professor Mix

You’ll mostly find PrisZilla dancing the night away in a front row somewhere in Zurich. Beyond dancing, she’s passionate about the endless journey of discovering evocative tracks from inspiring artists, using music as a way to connect with others and herself. Her sets float between dreamy and highly energetic, occasionally adding her own vocals. She especially loves shifting between Jungle, Breakbeats, Bass, Dub, DnB & experimental stuff. 

Beside enthusiastically splashing around in Zurich’s nightlife, PrisZilla is engaged in various collaborative projects and community spaces. Lately she also started her Master in Transdisciplinary Studies at ZhdK. Her creative focus spans a variety of mediums, including performance, photography, textiles & jewellery, social art, events and music.
This set is dedicated to the feeling of beautiful melancholy—hopeful and playful, yet sometimes a little lost, and fully embracing it. Guided by gloomy basslines, crisp percussion and promising melodies, it invites you into a dreamlike and wistful soundscape.

RADICAL ANTENNA 40 - PrisZilla

https://scale-limited.bandcamp.com/album/fargazing-grscl43

Sephirot’s debut on Greyscale, Fargazing, is a stunning exploration of sound that gracefully balances synthetic textures with organic atmospheres. Across ten tracks, the UK-based artist produces a creative sound design, crafting an album rich in depth, spaciousness and emotional resonance.
The journey begins with 'Chúl', where a broken beat emerges from a dense static interference, gradually unveiling luminous chords and a clever rhythmic interplay. This introduction to the album immediately shows how it thrives on subtle evolution and intricate layering. 'Deep [SEM]', a dub techno gem, has a melodic beauty and progression to it. Its harmonious interplay of evolving melodies creates a lush, layered soundscape that feels like a serene paradise. 'FP/B6' leans into a techier groove with a tight beat and organic landscape, giving the track a natural vibrancy. 'Midnight, Our' is a standout, with its shimmering melodies and subliminal bassline revealing their full intent in the latter half. The track’s final moments become a breathtaking crescendo, leaving you wanting more. 'Holding Patter(n)' serves as a contemplative intermission, blending orchestral tones with dense delays before transitioning into a whimsical conclusion. It’s a perfectly placed pause, preparing the listener for the second half of the album. Tracks like 'Midsummer' and 'Ochred' embrace the genre’s dub roots, combining broken beats with airy, uplifting production. The latter, in particular, radiates positivity and hope with breathtaking chord stabs and a expansive energy. 'Ellipsoidal' deepens the immersion, constructing scenic depth and an enveloping sense of distance. The album closes on a dreamlike note with 'Shon', blending angelic tones and IDM-inspired rhythms. Its wistful conclusion feels like the end of an extraordinary journey.
Fargazing is a brilliant debut for Sephirot. Throughout this album, the artist consistently shows their ability to create emotionally moving dub techno. It’s a deeply rewarding listen that invites repeated exploration. The label’s dedication to releasing exceptional music from global talents continues to be a trademark for themselves.
