arch Selections & Live Recordings

DJ & Live Mixes

Lily Ackerman’s mix for arch guides the listener through a wide range of human emotions, starting with a quiet and pleasantly naive intro before a dark and dramatic mid-section takes hold. Relief arrives with a fantasy journey through a jungle-like natural landscape, evoking an extravagant and euphoric state. 

The mix concludes with the calming sounds of everyday human life and nature, in the form of three field recordings, from places that hold meaning to Lily: Berlin, her current home, Vietnam, where her mother was born, and San Francisco, the last American city she lived in.

Exploring every avenue of electronic dub, hazy catacombs of smoked-out ambience and summery IDM, Inverted Audio founder Antepop delivers our next arch podcast. In his own words, “this vinyl mix marks my first recorded mix in 8 months, my Technics had been in storage for way too long, but with an invite to record an ambient mix for arch and some recent new additions to my collection, I had to get them dusted off and spinning again.”

The British selector recorded the mix in a conservatory surrounded by plants in the heart of rural England. “I dug out some of the finest ambient and downtempo records in my collection and put them together with a lone listener in mind. This is not for the dancefloor, it's to let the mind wander. I hope you enjoy listening to it.”

Join us for arch 0.4 July 9th at about blank berlin. Tickets via Inverted Audio.

Arch presents the next chapter in our mix series with Munich’s Sam Goku in control. Following his impressive and wide-reaching debut album 'East Dimensional Riddims’ the burgeoning artist, real name Robin Wang, focuses on the more experimental and transcendent side of his record collection in this special new mix.

“I wanted to put together a meditative set that transports different forms of blissfulness - from the floating energy of calmness through the holistic energy of mother nature to the ecstasy of pure rhythm. Accompanied by melodies that inspire my imagination and animate some fond memories.” - Sam Goku, August 2021

US producer, DJ and journalist Chloe Lula delivers our next installment of the arch selections series with a story-like mix, bluring futuristic electronics, modern classical, shoe-gaze and spooky night-time textures.

In Chloe’s own words, “this set is filled with some artists I discovered during the lockdown and played a lot throughout last fall and winter. There are a lot of processed stringed instruments throughout this mix that I love as well, especially since I use so many strings as textures in my own productions.’’ @chlo-lula

Currently splitting his time between Nairobi and Berlin, Bush of Ghosts is the alter-ego of UK-born David Tinning. The Santuri East Africa co-founder and long-time Cashmere Radio host shows off his eclectic and expansive collection of glistening electro-acoustic music from around the globe. Spanning decades, continents and micro-scenes, with a distinct focus on polyrhythmic percussion and tumbling time-signatures, we are delighted to welcome him to the series.

In David’s own words, “…this mix was a real pleasure to put together - it contains some of the pieces I play on my Bush of Ghosts show on Cashmere Radio, when I’m feeling more of the meditative / beatless vibes. There's music here from some favourites such as Jonny Nash (opening and closing and the mix), Vivian Koch, Space Africa, Alejandro Mosso, Brian Eno and Micheal Brook, as well as some sounds from my current location in East Africa - including Msafiri Zawose and Sven Karicek.”

São Paulo-based DJ. producer and curator Amanda Mussi drops in to provide a hypnotising down-tempo, psychedelic mix for our next podcast. As she prepares the next chapter of releases on her Macro Hits label, she takes a momentary sidestep into the world of cerebral, after-hours electronica.

A rising figurehead in her scene, Mussi layers a stunning mix of “ambient electronics, combined with drone, stoner’s doom and IDM - a mix of styles that I enjoy off-dancefloor, featuring many emerging latin-american artists.”

Amanda Mussi - Arch Selections X.8

Respected underground mainstay Irakli, the Georgian-born, Berlin-residing creator of the Intergalactic Research Institute for Sound label, provides the next selection for arch: edition X.9.

Known for his vivacious brand of electronics ranging from sci-fi infected idm and ambient, to morphing contemporary techno, the busy artist recorded a spacial, textural mix exploring the melodic end of the drone spectrum, juxtaposing vintage electronica bleeps with ultra-modern experimental transmissions.

For our 20th mix we welcome Dutch veteran DJ & producer Nuno Dos Santos under his Dwaalgast alias. Expect a masterclass traversing the full spectrum of transcendental drone, ambient, and stargazing idm minimalism. 

In his own words, “…My idea with this mix for Arch was to create an underwater mood. At moments you will dive deeper and darker and other moments you flow more to the surface and above for lighter and brighter surroundings.”

Deep-diving San Francisco-based selectors Mozhgan & Solar are our next guests, showcasing their most spaced-out, psychedelia-rooted records in this special mix for arch.

From android electronics to avant-garde fantasy soundtracks and electro-acoustic manifestations, there’s an audible thread of historian-like knowledge throughout. A window into an outernational post-everything twilight world, trainspotters beware!

Long-serving North American selector Cooper Saver supplies the next arch podcast. Cooper’s bright and distinctive style traverses genres, movements and continents - in this gorgeous home-listening mix he shines a light on the records he enjoys outside of the clubs.

“This is a selection of moody records both recent and old; things that I have been enjoying as my personal soundtrack to the spring showers and foggy evenings at home. Heavily influenced by my mountainous surroundings overlooking the western shoreline of British Columbia, Canada.” Cooper Saver, May 2022

Horkheimer is a Frankfurt-based DJ and producer known to dive deep into dub, aquatic techno and spaced-out electronica. As A/R for the Live at Robert Johnson label alongside Ata, his sonic landscape is as broad as enigmatic - a perfect meeting of minds for Arch.

Horkheimer’s selection blurs the boundaries between down-tempo techno and electronica, scanning the far reaches of Balearic spin-out vibes with an alternative twist. Often mysterious, at times deeply melancholic, and almost always drenched in smoky dub aesthetics!

German selector Lux, equally known for her storytelling skills in ambient and leftfield electronica, just as she is for her control of the dance floor via diverse house, electro and techno, provides the first arch podcast of 2023. In this serene 70+ minute trip we dive into cascading dub sequences, filtering waves of synthesised melody, and sparse minimalist dub electronics.

"Mixes have always been a way for me to express myself. I started doing them at a very young age, way before my dj career got underway. I would make them for friends, girlfriends, and even for myself. They are a great way to share your music collection and your feelings. At this  moment in time they seem more important to me than ever, since going out to listen to music has been put on hold. This mix was conceived as a non dance music mix, but I’ve never been one to conform to what that should or shouldn’t be. So feel free to get up and have a dance if it moves you. X" Justin Strauss

Lumière - arch 0.4 selections

Arch was born in 2020 when a strange and invisible beast issued from the depths and caught us all off-guard. The antidote for three electronic-music-lifers in Berlin was to create a series of carefully curated live concerts, an exercise in the new and bizarre language of socially distanced happenings. 

Great joy was to be found amidst those challenging months. Boundaries were crossed, expectations exceeded, and a wave of new music came into existence as the artists on stage adapted and opened up to nutritiously rich, meditative zones. Hybrid strains of experimental, avant-garde, IDM, electro-acoustic and post-club ambience were witnessed and enjoyed responsibly. 

Three sold out concerts later, we find 2020 drawing to a close with ‘Life on Small Planets,’ a 10 track curated album featuring many of the artists who performed at arch. 

Featuring Amandra, Fred Mann, Inland & John Gürtler, Jamaica Suk, Johanna Knutsson, Kev Sheridan, Magna Pia, Mathias Schober, Merrin Karras and Perm & HAL, ‘Life on Small Planets’ is a refreshing reminder of the power and importance of contemporary (electronic) music.
