Written & composed by Lukas Zangerle

The track "Chasing Horizons" by Lukas Zangerle tells the personal and inner journey of someone who chooses to step out of their comfort zone to discover new experiences and themselves. The protagonist of the song talks about how each step and each new experience defines them, while searching for meaning in life, exploring the world, and facing challenges. The main theme is the continuous search for meaning and enlightenment, symbolized by chasing horizons. The song emphasizes the change and growth that occur as one leaves the past behind and opens up to new possibilities, with each journey enriching their identity.

"Chasing Horizons" - Lukas Zangerle

No one can live for me,
There are no substitutes in life.
Leaving comfort isn’t easy,
But it’s the way to feel alive.

I’ve ridden trains,
Flown through distant skies,
Seen foreign faces,
Heard unknown stories.

I keep moving, I keep dreaming,
Chasing light, chasing meaning.
Every step, a part of me,
Every road, a memory.

Touched beliefs I couldn’t name,
Fed my mind with new words.
In every port, I left a piece of me,
And those who couldn’t follow, I left behind.

I keep moving, I keep dreaming,
Chasing light, chasing meaning.
Every step, a part of me,
Every road, a memory.

Now I watch the world through a window,
A moving circle of light.
Always moving, never still,
Chasing horizons.

I lost and found myself in quiet streets,
In waves that broke and carried me.
I left my past in every place,
Lighter with each step,
Deeper with each thought.

I keep moving, I keep dreaming,
Chasing light, chasing meaning.
Every step, a part of me,
Every road, a memory.

And though I move, I carry it all—
Faces, voices, cities, skies.
But I’m still here, always seeking,
And in every journey, I find more of me.

SMOOTHSTRANGER - #czdjcontest007

Welcome one and all! To my 'Out of the Box' and 'Out of my Comfort Zone' Hard House guest mix for the 'System Damage Hard House Sessions'. Big thanks to Vaughan Murphy for the invite.

The remit was an out of the box mix, and as Hard House is far from my usual style it was an 'Out of my Comfort Zone' set too (I hope that doesn't show too much)!! I like my hard house bouncy and chunky! I tried to keep it that way ;)

I really enjoy HH but really don't play it as much as I should :(  I aim to change that :)
I am quite proud of this mix, its not perfect, its not what a pro HH DJ might play, but I enjoyed it and in all fairness, It's all about enjoying the tunes \o/
So with that said, thank you for clicking here and I hope you take a listen and ultimately enjoy <3 
Big Love!

Comfort Zone Radio Episode 059 - In Memory Of Joee Cons Mix

SHLAM Live @ Comfort Zone, Toronto - 6AM Set, July 4, 2025 (FULL 2 HOUR SET)

New LQR single: Comfort Zone
From the upcoming album Infused, to be released in 2025.

Lyrics:
I don’t remember your name, but I’m not to blame
How did we end up like this?
We just met and now we’re in bed
Let me tell you our love story, miss ...

When I went to the party I was all alone
Last I remember was on my own
I must have entered the comfort zone
And I’m gonna party like it’s my home

Ja la, la la, lai lai, ja la, la la lai
Ja la, la la, lai lai, la la la la la lai

I’m going for a beer, ‘cause that’s good for me
I could drink all night, so I hope they’re for free
Not sick of being drunk, ‘cause that’s my way to be
I’m running to the bar for you and me

Ja la, la la, lai lai, ja la, la la lai
Ja la, la la, lai lai, la la la la la lai

I’m gonna get another drink, I’m gonna get a draught
This may be my last, no probably not (no!)
I hardly know you, but I like you a lot (he thinks you’re hot!)
You’re going home with me, you’re all I got

Ja la, la la, lai lai, ja la, la la lai
Ja la, la la, lai lai, la la la la la lai

Comfort Zone

Are you stuck in your comfort zone, waiting for someone or something to rescue you from yourself? You're not alone. So many of us live in what Tracy calls "the box"—that familiar prison where we feel safe but never truly alive.

We tell ourselves we don't need approval. We act like we don't give a shit what anyone thinks. But deep down? We're still waiting. Waiting for the right person to make it safe. Waiting for the universe to send a sign. Waiting for someone else to take the emotional risk first.

In this episode, Tracy explores:
* Why seeking approval keeps you trapped in avoidance patterns
* How "safe" actually means familiar (and why that's dangerous)
* The difference between avoiding life and living in flow
* Why emotionally risky action is the only path to freedom
* How to break free from your own fucking prison, one small step at a time

"You have to create your own safety. And stepping forward and taking an emotionally risky action is the only way that you live a life where you feel it's full of joy and happiness." ~ Tracy Crossley

Comfort Zone Radio Episode 061 - Theta State Guest Mi‪x

„Lieblingslieder“ ist ein Indie-Song über das ewige Aufschieben, über große Träume und kleine Ausreden. Mit einem Augenzwinkern erzählt er von verpassten Chancen, heimlichen Schwärmereien und dem inneren Mantra „Raus aus der Komfortzone!“. Doch am Ende bleibt immer noch die Musik – als Zuflucht, als Trost und als Motor, um weiterzumachen. Ein Song zwischen Selbstironie und Sehnsucht, der das Lebensgefühl einer ganzen Generation einfängt.

“Lieblingslieder” is an indie song about procrastination, big dreams, and small excuses. With a wink, it tells the story of missed chances, secret crushes, and the inner mantra “Get out of your comfort zone!”. In the end, there is still music – as refuge, as comfort, and as the drive to keep going. A song balancing self-irony and longing, capturing the spirit of an entire generation.

Lieblingslieder

Warum bin ich so selten leise?
Und dreh im Garten meine Kreise
Denke nach über den Sinn
Warum ich bin so wie ich bin
Warum bin ich nicht längst weise?

Warum hab ich im Leben noch nix erreicht?
Warum mach ich‘s mir am liebsten leicht?
Und häng gechillt auf‘m Sofa rum
Bring Monster auf der Playsi um
Warum bin ich nicht längst reich?

Meine Träume?
Schon immer riesengroß
Und trotzdem
Lass ich all den Schrott nicht los
„Raus aus der Komfortzone“
Hör ich immer wieder
Doch ich träum weiter
Summ meine Lieblingslieder

Warum gehört Sophie nicht längst zu mir?
Warum sitz ich noch alleine hier?
Warum sag ich ihr nicht wie‘s um mich steht?
Wie sehr sie mir den Kopf verdreht

Warum sprech ich sie nicht einfach an?
Hast doch nix zu verlieren, Mann...

Ich träum schon immer riesengroß
Und trotzdem komm ich von hier nicht los
„Raus aus der Komfortzone“
Wieder und wieder
Ich träum weiter
Sing meine Lieblingslieder

Hat sie mich gerade angelacht?
Oder war das nicht für mich gedacht?
Komm schon, Alter - die Zeit läuft ab
Wenn ich sie mir heut Abend nicht schnapp
Schnappt sie sich bald ein anderer
Ganz sicher

Ach, ich weiß nicht...

Ich träum mal wieder riesengroß
So ist das
Immer wieder

Und am Ende bleiben mir
Nur meine Lieblingslieder

Lieblingslieder

Send my first track into the universe after ages and ages of procrastination, delaying the inevitable and being too frightened to actually finish a project for once. Now I launch it into space before I'm ready to get the momentum going. The song is about this process of overcoming myself.

Escape

I am Lukas Zangerle, an archaeologist, teacher, and generative music composer. My music arises from emotions, memories, and spontaneous thoughts that emerge from my imagination and daily experiences. For me, creating generative music is like writing a diary, transforming these feelings into sounds where rhythm sincerely expresses my state of mind.

SMOOTHSTRANGER isn’t just a DJ—he’s a driver of the night, steering through sound with the precision of a veteran racer and the instinct of someone born behind the wheel. Originally forged in the coastal circuits of BC, he now roams the GTA—no fixed route, no known destination.
His sets aren’t just music—they’re motion. Cinematic. Tactile. Temporal. Equal parts control and instinct, SMOOTHSTRANGER doesn’t just mix tracks—he drives through them, shifting gears across electro, indie-dance, synthwave, dark disco, and house. These genres melt together in motion, echoing futures imagined and pasts reawakened. Smooth. Fast. Untraceable. 
His sessions are more than mixes—they’re transmissions through time. A lost highway of sound, weaving its way through the night.
You’ll find him in the shadows—spinning at unlisted venues, cutting through fog-drenched rooms and underground gatherings. For those tuned in, his signal hits every first Friday at midnight: Midnight Drive—a monthly broadcast available wherever podcasts live, with the full archive on Mixcloud.

A lot of us live in our head, disconnected from our feelings and intuition. This podcast touches on releasing insecure attachment, accepting your authentic self and getting “unstuck” by connecting to how you FEEL instead of how you THINK. I’ve been there, and discuss sensitive subjects using my own experiences with a lot of laughs and even more empathy… because we’re all flawed humans.
