The recording of my set at Paral·lel Festival 2022 🌲⛰🧡 @parallelfestival

I was on 12.30-14.30 on Saturday afternoon. When I started playing, grey hazy clouds were still drifting across the panorama from Friday night’s storm, and by the end of my set, the sun was shining down on all of us.

This set meant a great deal to me, and being gifted the task of drifting from ambient expansion into trippy rhythms, coaxing everyone up off the floor and into movement, was such a dream.

Hope you enjoy this memory from an amazing weekend in those magical mountains 🧚✴️

"We recovered a treasure from just over 4 years ago. A treasure from the legendary mouseDown set at Parallel in 2019. We advance the Christmas gift a few weeks so that you can enjoy and teleport to the Pyrenees once again with this vinyl set that is a fantasy. Enjoy!"

MUSIC, NATURE & INTIMACY

Paral·lel Festival is characterized by a curated musical selection that is largely based on uniqueness and promoting differentiated musical paradigms. Trying to move away from massification, we created an intimate event with a limited capacity.

HOCast #169 - mouseDown (ABSIS) - Paral·lel 2019

"With closed eyes, I'm transported to a forest, surrounded by the scent of pine and wet grass. Sunglasses on, I settle into a camping chair as the psychedelic downtempo beats of the second day at Parallel Festival unfold. Feeling completely at ease, I sway to the music, and later, I rise from the chair to float, ensuring this magical moment becomes a cherished memory."
