Varden Monument 2025

Live set demo-01

30 Years of Interdimensional Transmissions Tour came to Karmen Camina in Strasbourg on August 23, 2025 – celebrating 30 years of summoning music from the other side. We brought a special lineup reflecting the context of that city and artists we connect to, focused around BMG & Erika with venue transformations by Amber Gillen & the Infinite Dimensions Crew. For the show in Strasbourg, in addition to DJ sets from Ectomorph along with solo sets from Erika and BMG, we were pleased to welcome one of our musical heroes: the genre transcendent genius from The Hague: Intergalactic Gary. This was the final DJ set of the 30 Years of IT Tour. This set really aces the mission of the whole tour, and after guests like Rrose, dBridge and Clarisa Kimskii at other shows, we really feel like we expressed so many sides of our vision. IT’s first record launched with Ectomorph in February 1995, and we have been devoted to the left hand path of Detroit Techno to this day, striving to create music and environments that are both timeless and inspiring.

Dubwise atmospherics flood Guy Brewer's third RA Mix.

Hear the word "Dionysus" and you picture the Greek god of ecstasy: overflowing tables, delirious revelry, chaos. Not the austere soundworld of Guy Brewer, AKA Carrier. On the surface, the UK artist's latest alias feels almost Spartan. But look closer and the Dionysian link starts to show:  it's about shedding fixed forms and identities, to allow something more true, more alive, to form. 

RA.1011 marks Brewer's third entry in the RA Mix series, following editions as drum & bass outfit Commix (RA.269) and, later, the techno alias Shifted (RA.310). "I guess it's an effort to step away from purism," Brewer told <i>Resident Advisor</i> back in 2023. "Right now the thresholds between genres are where you find the most exciting music." 

Carrier's phenomenal debut album, <i>Rhythm Immortal</i>, delivers on that promise. Low-end pressure cloaks like foreboding shadows, punctured only by eerie, otherworldly percussion comparable only to Photek or T++. Listen to the LP in full and it feels like walking through a scene in a true-crime drama: a fog-drenched city street in the deep of night, ambushed by gusts of wind, whispers and strange noises—and it sounds totally, utterly original.

Tracing a line through dub pressure, fractured percussion and narcotic ambience, Brewer explores that same world on RA.1011. As with the album, there's a primal pulse that threads through the recording. Walls of negative space seem to hover before dissolving inexplicably, their tension intact; drums move more like the weather than rhythm. - Bella Aquilina

"This mix was recorded at Chillits, a nonprofit, DIY ambient-experimental-ish musical gathering in the woods of Northern California, now in its 26th year. I played late Saturday night, in the deep listening hours, following Rrose, Jon Carr, and William Selman.

I spent the weeks leading up to Chillits tinkering and editing some tracks, including recording and processing my own spoken word bits that I overlaid on two tracks (Ure Thrall and Aleksi Perälä). It's the first time I've ever done that, and I think it turned out well.

I'm very grateful to all of the Chillits organizers and volunteers for producing such a lovely gathering and to Hi-Vis for hosting this recording. Enjoy the mix!"
