Mix On The Desk VI ( Electro, Florida Break )



«A collection of pieces about the discovery of sounds and sonic universes hidden in objects, places and within yourself.» - Feldermelder & Julian Sartorius

Commissioned by the legendary concert venue Bad Bonn in Düdingen, Switzerland, and the KRAN project, ‘Bonn Route’ is a collaborative album by electronic musician Feldermelder and percussionist Julian Sartorius. A location- based sound walk that can be experienced both on-site in the village of Düdingen, and as a full-length album. The eleven tracks are a sonic homage to, and an artistic interpretation of, a small village in Switzerland’s heartland.

Building on his practice of site-specific performances and percussive sound walks, Julian Sartorius captured sounds and patterns at eleven locations: the train station and cemetery, on the banks of a stream, on a bicycle path, and in an intimate cavern above the village’s lake, amongst other locales. Sartorius documented the soundscape of the village in field recordings, recorded samples of objects and captured percussive patterns by playing on the architecture and vegetation found on-site.
Feldermelder then processed these recordings into eleven compositions, preserving the locations’ acoustic identities, but expanding on Sartorius’ material. Besides the bassline on ‘Veloweg’, Feldermelder used only sound reactive synthesis and resonators to create additional sounds, layers and tracks, thus multiplying the spectrum and rhythms of the original material. ‘Bonn Route’ is a musical journey rooted in the emittance of sound, and our resonation with the world around us.

Feldermelder is a Swiss musician, sound designer, producer and installation artist. He is co-founder of -OUS and part of the audiovisual collective Encor.studio. He has previously released several releases on -OUS, both solo and in collaboration with Sara Oswald.

Drummer, artist and percussionist Julian Sartorius’ precise and multi-layered rhythmical patterns are keen excursions into the hidden tones of found objects and prepared instruments, bridging the gap between organic timbres and the vocabulary of (experimental) electronic music. He has previously released his album «Locked Grooves» on -OUS.

Axaxaxas - Radio Buena Vida 07.11.25

This morning’s Music To Make Your Ears Smile session felt like a slow-motion sunrise — a set built around space, warmth, and a bit of wanderlust. We started adrift with Ecovillage feat. Nightlands, drifting through ambient textures before Yarni’s The Romantic Ghost pulled us gently into cinematic grooves.
There was something powerful in Soo Chul Kim’s The Way to Hades — that bridge between ancient and modern always catches me. From there, we eased through the Balearic glow of Statues’ Radiant Sun, the feel-good shimmer of Ralph Myerz, and the hypnotic funk of Prado.
Old friends returned too — Mary House’s Searchin Dreams, Love Quartet, Avarice, Chris & Moi — all those early-90s moments that shaped my love for downtempo and Italo house.
We closed on a high with Bel Batista’s Disco Mousso — a cosmic French-disco gem that lifted the whole morning skyward.
A mix of pulse, nostalgia, and calm — still glowing hours later.


Music To Make Your Ears Smile 1BTN November 2025

Senglar & Arçon de Nièze- Ruoja (Version)

Started out with a straight rhumba, and decided to add berimbau, running through a pedalboard. I am big into crossing musical continents. The berimbau, borrowed from Kimbundu mbirimbau is a traditional Angolan musical bow that is commonly used in Brazil. It is also known as sekitulege among the Baganda and Busoga.

It consists of a single-stringed bow attached to a gourd resonator and is played with a stick and a coin or stone to create different tones and rhythms.

The berimbau was used in many parts of Africa and Brazil during the 19th century to accompany chants and storytelling. It is part of the candomblé tradition, later incorporated into the Afro-Brazilian art capoeira.

Originnal release on LOUDsilence:

„Psychedelic, expansive multi-layered soundscape journeys swirl and blend in dark ambient, drone, noise and industrial atmospheres.“

„Look out of the spacecraft's window.
Take in a vast array of shapes and wonder.“

The passage to a dimension beyond belief and common sense.
Vast, majestic and terrifying in its rawness.
Unfolding the subconscious in inscrutable ways.
Sunken dreams resurface on strange and alien landscapes.
Traversing the ineffable while shades of black
darken the eternal crimson red sky.

Recorded, mixed and mastered between Fall 2023 and Spring 2025. The Minilogue XD synthesizer was my main instrument. All tracks on this album are one-take live-improvisations. Additional atmos, pads and granular synthesis.

First Frequency Agency Invites Delano Legito & Vuur - 11th November 2025

This set explores the meeting point between acoustic and digital sound, a reflection of my current listening habits and obsessions. I’ve been drawn to how organic textures and electronic processes can blend into something that feels both organic and constructed. The selection moves between experimental electronics, contemporary acoustic work, and the spaces where they overlap. I’m interested in moments where an electronic element feels tangible and fragile, or an acoustic sound takes on a synthetic edge.
