For the second edition of Rugged Sessions we have invited the multi-talented Adam Stromstedt. The Sydney based DJ/Producer has had some excellent releases on labels like KANN, Banoffee-pies, Gestalt Records, Bossmusik and more. 
Adam is also host of his own radio show called Always Sometimes and he is co-founder of Lyssna Records. He has recorded a beautiful laidback 1 hour mix for us filled with soulful and dubby house with a lot of warm jazz influences. Just like his production style, this is right our cup of tea. Enjoy and make sure to check him out !

RM241221 Preview - Olsvangèr/Tim Schlockermann/Adam Strömstedt/ Barney in the Tunnel

After a year and a half of regular shows on Orbital Radio it's time for Always Sometimes to go into hibernation. We're rounding it off exactly how it started, with a 2 hour back to back from the shows founders Adam (@adam-stromstedt) & Onnie (@oncumyilmaz). 

We'd like to extend our gratitude towards all the guests and the people who have supported the show from the start, it would have been a lot harder and a lot more arduous without you all!

Thanks (in no particular order) to: Estimulo (@estimulo),  Flord King (@flordking), Andy Green (@verdant-recordings), Mihail P (@mihailpetrovski), Idit Frenkel (@iditf), @Aspetuck, @Trackwerk, Ezra GB (@ezragb), Rabbit Taxi (@rabbittaxi), Metropolitan Soul Museum (@metropolitan-soul-museum), Art Alfie (@art-alfie), Rubsilent (@rubsilent), Rich H (@black-key-records), Code 618 (@code618), Caillou (@cailloulapierrequiroule), Benj (@benj_schmidt), Alec Pritchard (@alecpritchard), Garth Linton (@garthlinton), Paul Rimbaud (@distantworldtransmissions), Kleo (@kleekrecordings), LOVE APE (@loveape), Swisherman (@swisherman), BufoBufo (@bufobufo-1), Niklas Andersson (@anderssonniklas), Samir Yosufi (@samiryosufi) and Biancolato (@biancolato)

Always Sometimes #50 with Onnie (01/02/2022) FINAL SHOW

Six months after releasing the 'Half Light Half Dark' EP, our fellow NY-er and usual suspect here at Delayed, Aspetuck, releases a remix package. The release features incredible talent from around the globe like Adam Strömstedt, Ben Kaczor, Jónbjörn, Sanguine, Forest On Stasys, and Caldera. Each track gives a new life and unique take on Aspetuck's already exceptional originals.

Our premiere for today comes from Lyssna Records founder and KANN affiliate Adam Strömstedt. Adam creates rich atmospheres and complex rhythms that work in perfect balance in his productions, and we see that recipe works magic once again in his take on 'Holding Pattern.'
The track is driven by carefully constructed broken rhythm layered with warm, cosmic pads, which lead to a signature moment of this journey when melancholic minor piano chords create a 'call and response' effect with a catchy tom sequence. This remix is an ideal soundtrack for sunny mornings on a fog-filled dance floor.

The 'Half Light Half Dark' remix package is coming out on March 25th on Bandcamp.

Mr. Tophat & Adam Strömstedt - Tingeling (2011)

READ > inverted-audio.com/premiere-adam-stromstedt-reptile-boogie

@adam-stromstedt 'Reptile Boogie' is a proper infectious laid-back number. Coupling thermal synthlines with skittish percs and acid bass jags on stealth mode, the track puts on a cozy, summery vibe interspersed with vibrant speech moments, but certainly doesn't lose sight of its club-ready attributes

Adam Strömstedt – Reptile Boogie [Lyssna Records]

This week is really special to us as we have the privilege of sharing the airwaves with the show's first guest mix, coming from the British DJ duo and purveyors of fine music @trackwerk.

Trackwerk consists of Scott and Carl from the English city of Sheffield. They started DJing in the late 80s when house music exploded onto the UK scene and have been collecting and playing music ever since.

You can read more about the duo and listen to previous mixes on their website trackwerk.net or on their soundcloud, soundcloud.com/trackwerk.

Founded in Brooklyn and run by a team of music producers, DJs, and perpetual music addicts.

MR. TOPHAT

Born in Sweden in 1990, Rudolf Nordström—better known as Mr. Tophat—has long been a defining force in Stockholm’s electronic music underground. A producer, DJ, and sonic architect, his deep passion for dance music has driven him to create hypnotic, genre-blurring productions that transcend traditional club sounds.

With a history of curating unique musical experiences, Mr. Tophat co-founded the revered Karlovak label with Art Alfie in 2011, a platform for house music built for nights that defy endings. He also helms Junk Yard Connections, established in 2008, a label known for its strictly limited, no repress approach—making each release a sought-after collector’s item.

His solo work has garnered critical acclaim, with both of his solo albums receiving Grammy nominations, a testament to his ability to push the boundaries of electronic music while maintaining a deeply personal and innovative sound. Following the release of "This Is Pop" (PIAS x Twilight Enterprise), he continues to explore new sonic territories, with upcoming music on Karlovak and a highly anticipated new album with Axel Boman, blending dancefloor euphoria with avant-garde textures.

His collaborations span both the mainstream and the underground, having worked with Robyn, Kleerup, XOV, Lune, and Jelly Crystal, among others. He has been spotlighted by major global media outlets, including MTV, New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Billboard, and Pitchfork, further cementing his status as a forward-thinking artist with a broad cultural impact.

On stage, Mr. Tophat continues to appear at some of the world’s most intriguing venues and festivals—sometimes in grandiose settings, other times in shadowy, elusive late-night sanctuaries. Whether behind the decks or orchestrating immersive live performances, he remains an unpredictable and compelling force in electronic music.
