damn what a track !!!! love the set so far thanks for sharing

" An afro-celestial journey to celebrate the start of summer, the end of the pandemic and the beauty of house music." - @courtneyscott

Courtney Scott is a Brooklyn-based artist who is driven by music's power to build community, to heal, and to transmit love in its purest form.  Her performances are visceral; taking you on a deeply personal journey into diverse sounds that are not without risks or surprises, but woven with soulful melodies and addictive basslines that move you to the highest frequency.  Her sound is heavily influenced by the rhythms she has discovered in the last 12 years as a nomad and by her New York City roots.  Her sets are infused with afro, acid, nu-disco and indigenous subtleties that delicately blend to create her signature sound.

Courtney Scott [Amaya] - Mix #108

Bonjuk Bay Stories // 01
This is the first of a series of sets I have been playing in the beautiful Bonjuk Bay, Turkey. I spent a fair amount of time in this magic land this summer, and I played long hours, that for once, I thought of recording ☺️ 
Every session is a new story unfolding, and I chose to start with the most recent one, a spontaneous sunset playtime that happened mid-August 2021.
I played this one on a Sunday,  it was actually my 3rd set there that weekend, and I had fun exploring my old collection. From atmospheric sounds to groovy beats, I hope you have as much fun listening to this one as I had playing it 🌅 
Stay tuned, more Bonjuk Bay Stories to come 💕

Hola!

 Here is the recording of my very first sunrise set at Burning Man 2018 in the Black Rock Desert. I started playing around 5:45 am, the lights and lasers were still glowing in the cold darkness of the night..as the songs were passing by, the sky turned blue and the horizon warmer. Burners were all facing the deep playa, waiting for the sun to appear. It was an honour to soundtrack this moment and share music in such a magical place. No matter how hard I try, words can barely describe the energy and emotions felt in that instant... I hope music can express it better. 

I'd like to thank Maxa Camp & The Gardens of Babylon for inviting me to play on this beautiful Xaman Art Car...the mystical blue deer.   I’m very grateful to have shared this moment with so many incredible souls, old and new friends. 

Merci à mon ami Vince Dub d'avoir photographié ce moment!

CHAPTER II

[...]
B L A C K O U T. No sound, no light, it is total darkness on the dance floor, a complete power outage. I immediately tell myself it must be the breaker or generator. The technician appears and he start troubleshooting.

I grab my african shaker and play a little rhythm to keep people entertained. My loyal trooper friends in the DJ booth start humming a song to mask the silence.

Four, five, six minutes pass by, but it feels like an eternity. People from the crowd are slowly walking away but the people who were the most in the flow remain on the dance floor, optimistic that we will solve the problem. We conclude that the powerbar where all the DJ gear is connected is causing the breaker to shut down, with too much water leaking on it during the storm. We quickly find a replacement, unplug, replug, and turn it on again. SUCCESS! All the lights are shining and the gear is back online again. 

Decision time–  in what direction will I take this set now? Do I start where I left off, or should I build a new set? Over 10 minutes of dead silence, the energy from the previous set is completely lost. The people on the dancefloor are patiently waiting for the next chapter and I trust them immensely. 

They are troopers, music lovers, as they remained with me through the downpour. This trust allows me to take my time to rebuild a new foundation for the rest of the journey. I go into my “Intro & acoustic”  folder again and choose a record. Chapter II begins. 

I truly felt grateful for Mother Nature playing her part in this adventure by joining us on the dancefloor. I was overwhelmed with a sense of being alive and present, and I was so grateful & thankful to share this experience with these beautiful people.

"Lonely days come and go. When you need them most, call on a friend."

Canopy Sounds returns this with our good friend, trustless.

Few can rival this Munich based producer and DJ's tender and careful ear for introspective soundscapes that pair with soft and thunderous grooves alike. As one of the founders of the beloved Nie Wieder Schlafen label and music collective, trustless and his friends yearned for something different than the music that was around them early in 2014. While waiting for a David August performance during the wee hours of the morning, Steppi and his crew knew they could not sleep, hence the meaning of NWS (Never Sleep Again). This whimsical story would become the root for what was to become one of the most captivating and inspiring underground deep house collectives around. Since then, the ideas has moved from festival fields, to T-Shirts, Youtube and finally a juggernaut label with releases from artists including trustless himself, Quatri, Modulo, Padre, Sam Goku, Kotu, Jayden Klight, Timo Chinala, Varaz and more.

The idea of being "trustless" evokes feelings of having your head a bit up in the clouds. It embraces uncertainty but with an excitement for what might be uncovered. The music of the NWS crew aims to create atmospheres where a distinct emotion isn't so clear. In our current global context we are all asked to embrace the unknown, however we embark on this journey together, not alone. We hope you can find some solace in this special selection of tunes from trustless...

Make sure to follow trustless and Nie Wieder Schlafen on social media and SoundCloud.

Flow Sessions 042 - Malin Linnéa

"By continuously letting go, it is possible to stay in that state of freedom. Feelings come and go, and eventually you realize that you are not your feelings, but that the real “you” is merely witnessing them. You stop identifying with them. The “you” that is observing and is aware of what is happening always stays the same. As you become more and more aware of the changeless witness within, you begin to identify with that level of consciousness. You become progressively primarily the witness rather than the experiencer of phenomena. You get closer and closer to the real Self and begin to see that you had been duped by feelings all along. You thought that you were the victim of your feelings. Now you see that they are not the truth about yourself; they are merely created by the ego, that collector of programs which the mind has mistakenly believed are necessary for survival.”
David R. Hawkins, Letting Go

On the past year and during the current year I've been busy with learning this advanced skill of "letting go". Incredibly hard yet so rewarding. 

Tunes in this mix lately accompanied me during my letting go journey,  and its ups and downs. Hope you get some high vibrations from these elegant melodic house tracks. Enjoy <3

Gimerique (https://soundcloud.com/gimerique) presents "Alpine Rush" Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 207

Unsere Nr. 207 kommt heute von einem Schweizer/Belgischen Duo, welche ich seit einiger Zeit verfolge. Melodisch und mit der gewissen Tiefe an danceability schaffen sie es ein aufs andere Mal faszinierende Sets aufzunehmen, welche nie ein Bein ruhig stehen lassen. Auch heute.

Nachdem sie sich 2013 auf SC kennengelernt haben, arbeiten Florian und Benoit heute im Tandem, um verträumte elektronische Musik mit einer erzählerischen Mischung aus sowohl deepen als auch lebendigen Elementen in die Welt zu bringen. Unter seinem Alias https://soundcloud.com/bigasti veröffentlichte Benoit auf Imprints wie Steyoyoke, Lost Diaries oder Einmusik und erlangte durch seinen einzigartigen melancholischen Ansatz in der elektronischen Musik schnell Anerkennung in der Szene. Floloco, Florians DJ-Projekt, hält sich weniger streng an nur ein elektronisches Musikgenre. Das Thema, das seine Sets oder Mixe verbindet, ist der besondere "https://soundcloud.com/floloco"-Groove. Nach jahrelanger Erfahrung in der elektronischen Musik als Einzelkünstler, vereint Gimérique den Signature-Sound der beiden Elektronikmusik-Enthusiasten zu einem neuen Kapitel auf ihrem vielversprechenden Weg in der elektronischen Musikszene.

Alles begann mit einem gemeinsamen DJ-Set, das auf der weltweit angesehenen Schirmchendrink-Mixshow veröffentlicht wurde, die die beiden 2015 gemeinsam gegründet haben. Nach mehreren gemeinsamen DJ-Sessions spürten sie, dass es an der Zeit war, das Projekt auf die nächste Stufe zu heben: et voilà, Gimérique war geboren!

Mit ihrer ersten gemeinsamen Produktion im Jahr 2020 hat Gimérique Lerrs "Hummingbird" in ein tiefes und verträumtes Territorium gebracht. 

Gimériques erste Originalproduktion, 'Calm at Heart', wurde im Frühjahr 2020 auf Harabe Recordings veröffentlicht und erkundet eine ambientere Landschaft ihres Sounds. 

Voller Ideen und Inspiration haben sich die beiden während der Pandemie im Studio verkrochen. Mit purer Aufregung können die beiden nun endlich ihre kommenden Projekte ankündigen, und das schon bald.

Anbei habe ich es mir nicht nehmen lassen Ihnen einige Fragen zu stellen:

Erzählt uns doch mal ein bisschen was über eure musikalischen Einflüsse und eurem Hintergrund.

Florian (ich): Geboren anfangs der 80er bin ich in den frühen 90ern mit elektronischer Musik in Kontakt gekommen. Bald einmal, und dies ist heute immer noch der Fall, begann meine Faszination von NYC und French House (oder Filter House sagte man dem eine Zeit lang). Mein Stil wurde sicherlich stark geprägt durch den mehr Techno/Elektronica-orientierte Stil in Europa später. Und, aufgrund meines Freundeskreis', erachte ich Hip Hop (Golden Era bis heute) ebenso als wichtigen Einfluss in meinen Musikgeschmack.

Ben kommt vom Rockigen, er spielte  Schlagzeug in seiner Kindheit und in Bands mit seinen Freunden. Erst später, mit dem Ausgehen in Clubs, begann seine Passion für elektronische Musik. Ben hat ein Faible für melancholische Melodien.

Zusammen ergänzen wir uns perfekt. Wir beide haben ein Faible für cineastische Klänge. Ich bin eher der groovige und Ben der melancholische - dies ergibt einen recht coolen und passenden mix, so finden wir zumindest ;)!

Was macht in euren Augen eine gute Afterhour aus?

Oh wow, dies ist schon eine Weile her. Afterhour haben eigentlich einen schweren Stand - wir gehen mal von einer guten Haupt-Party aus. Daher macht eine gute Afterhour für uns aus, dass es gelingt den Drive und die Stimmung zu verlängern, ja bestenfalls sogar noch zu übertreffen.
