In "Contour," Bepo (@bepo_daune) crafts a deeply immersive sonic experience, masterfully aligned with the ethos of Magician On Duty—a label known for curating textured, emotional soundscapes. The track opens with a restrained elegance, inviting the listener into a hypnotic rhythmic pulse that feels both intimate and expansive.

Anchored by a subtle yet steady groove, Bepo balances minimalist percussive elements with warm, atmospheric pads that breathe in and out like distant waves. The production is clean and deliberate; each sonic element feels precisely placed within the stereo field, offering both clarity and depth. The harmonic layering gradually evolves, never rushing, building a kind of meditative tension that’s as cinematic as it is club-ready.

There’s a distinct narrative arc here—one that rewards patient listeners. Rather than chasing trends, "Contour" feels timeless, reminiscent of artists like Stimming or Kiasmos, while still carrying Bepo's unique fingerprint.

This remix breathes deep within the atmospheric niche of downtempo and melodic deep house — a genre that relies less on maximalist impact and more on subtlety, tension, and immersive groove.

Production & Atmosphere:
From the first few bars, the production is immediately cinematic. Layers of ethereal pads hover in a warm stereo field, drawing you into a hazy, almost meditative space. The mix boasts a remarkable balance: each element — whether it’s a crisp hi-hat pattern or a slow-burning synth swell — feels intentional, placed with an ear for both space and texture.

The remixers, Bianco & Schlemann, are clearly versed in restraint. They stretch the dynamics patiently, never rushing the progression. Percussion elements are minimal but meaningful — a syncopated rim, an understated kick — and they serve the greater mood rather than dominate it.

Melodic Content:
Melodically, “Contour” feels like it was sculpted rather than written. Subtle motifs drift in and out, often more hinted at than stated. This impressionistic approach keeps the listener engaged — it’s music for both the dancefloor and introspection. The remix isn’t about hooks; it’s about contouring emotional space, staying true to the title’s namesake.

Remix Interpretation:
Bianco & Schlemann don't overhaul the original; they distill it. They pull it through a lens of smoky lounge vibes and subdued psychedelia, adding just enough rhythmic propulsion to make it club-worthy without losing its ambient core. It’s the kind of track you’d expect to hear at sunrise on a Tulum beach or tucked deep into a Berlin after-hours set.

CONTOUR: Episode 3 ft. Elias.

https://linktr.ee/magicianonduty

Adrian emerges as a luminary in a celestial constellation of emerging artists, sculpting a realm where influences, moods, and genres converge, defying the confined borders of established soundscapes. His sonic palette, a masterpiece of carefully woven layers, unfolds like a cosmic ballet, an invitation to extraterrestrial dance floors where tempo metamorphoses between tracks, and melodies intertwine like a continuous string of celestial sonnets. Here, quality transcends the mere metrics of intensity and speed.

In Adrian's sonic realm, each performance is a signature manifestation of "the calm before the storm," a ritual where the listener is immersed in anticipation, a prelude to the tempest of emotions that follows. This is the alchemy of Adrian's musical sorcery, an enchanting journey through the uncharted territories of sound.

As the chronicles of 2025 unfold, Adrian's sonic odyssey echoes across diverse landscapes—from the mystical echoes of Agartha in Turkey to the blazing sands of Burning Man in the United States, from the rhythmic heartbeats of Katzensprung and Lusatia Festival in Germany to the sun-kissed shores of SXM Festival in St. Maarten. His notes resonate in the neon glow of Playa Playground Festival in Las Vegas, the vibrant energy of Richkovyi Rave in Ukraine, and the transformative fires of Love Burn in the United States.

On these sacred stages, Adrian has shared his musical revelations alongside a pantheon of world-class artists—YokoO, WhoMadeWho, Echonomist, Roy Rosenfeld, Gorje Hewek, and a constellation of kindred spirits. Together, they weave a sonic tapestry that transcends boundaries, a testament to the boundless creativity that unfolds when musical souls unite.

I love music and produce the genre that I love which is Progressive Trance specifically in the style of Trance music from the late 90s to the early 2000s. When I started this project back in the summer of 2002. After coming up with numerous names that would suit my style coined as ‘light, airy and melodic Trance’ I settled on the name ‘Goldengate’..

"This album is wistful and downbeat, yet comforting and captivating. It's a beautiful work of art, and a wonderful display of musical talent. Brilliant stuff." Fog Songs

Wholeness (released 2020): https://thelastdinosaur.backl.ink/wholenessalbum

"Wholeness is wonderful. Rarely has sorrow sounded so seductive." Elizabeth Alker, BBC Radio 3

"A deeply personal record and all the more affecting for it." Electronic Sound

"A very personal & artistic triumph, ‘Wholeness’ shimmers and dazzles like no other. Truly outstanding."
★★★★★ Get Ready to Rock

"The ultimate message of the album is that hope remains possible even in the hardest of circumstances. Demons can be conquered, at least for a time, long enough to declare the essential goodness of life." A Closer Listen

"Wholeness speaks to the heart with unrelenting intensity." Echoes and Dust

"This follow-up is poles apart from its predecessor. To use a Talk Talk analogy, if The Nothing was the semi-mainstream The Colour of Spring, Wholeness is a leap into Spirit of Eden/Laughing Stock territory." No More Workhorse

"Prepare yourself for a timeless moment of twenty-six minutes of delicate reverie between trembling folk, orchestral, and rainy ambience."
★★★★ 1/2 Sound of Violence

“Life is a muddled melting pot of uncertainty, joy, emptiness, confusion, hope and longing, one that we only drift through for a brief time before realising that everything is temporary and there are no real answers, and this album is no different.”
82% Belwood Music

"Wholeness is an acknowledgement that a human’s state is always temporary and mostly random, whilst at times exponentially breathtaking."
7.5 out of 10 Live4Ever

The Nothing (released 2017): smarturl.it/TheNothing

"Elegiac, cathartic, rewarding, and beautifully moving."
★★★★ Uncut Magazine

"A labour of love about life's transience and fragility."
★★★★ Mojo

"An extended meditation on life, death and memory."
★★★★ The Independent

"This profoundly personal album will linger long."
★★★★★ Music News

"All told, it’s the kind of record you could obsess about; the kind of record you’ll foist on friends, music that you know you’ll be playing months from now. Highly recommended."
★★★★ The Skinny

"Poignant."
★★★★ Classic Pop

"A wide-screen dreamscape of a record, brimming with emotion without ever becoming maudlin."
★★★★ NARC

"It's one of the albums that just needs to be heard."
★★★★ Norman Records

"An outstanding second album & mesmerising musical journey."
★★★★ AmericanaUK

"To say this is one of the best albums of 2017 doesn't do it any justice. It's beautifully written & composed, from its delicate atmospheres to its sweeping harmonies and bright, elaborate arrangements. One of the most accomplished indie folk albums you'll come across this year besides Father John Misty's Pure Comedy."
91% Sound & Silence

"It's soul bearing, heart wrenching & most importantly; breathtakingly honest. These qualities are the hallmarks of truly great artistry and Jamie Cameron has firmly cemented himself as a time transcending artist of impeccable quality."
The Line of Best Fit

"The Nothing manages to be elegant without pouring into the lachrymal or the neurasthenic. And just for that, it deserves all your attention." TSUGI

"The Nothing is an album of transcendent beauty and is one of the finest pieces of music I’ve had the privilege of reviewing."
