I... keep asking myself...
Was I too much for you?
What did I say or do 
that split us up in two?
What were our differences?
Did you meet someone else?
I guess I'll never know
Because.. we don't talk...

Our fragile love
Turned to memory
Your shirt is still buried
In my laundry
Intoxicating nights
Fully mesmerised
I was falling deep
Wondering...

Was it almost love
That we made
Was it almost love
That we shared
Was it almost love
Your embrace
Was it almost love
What I felt?

Enchanted I lied
On your chest at nights
Your presence made the sun
Shine brighter every time
Like my sexy dream 
Until you disappeared
Now i'm falling deep
Wondering..

Was it almost love
That we made
Was it almost love
That we shared
Was it almost love
Your embrace
Was it almost love
What I felt?

I guess
i'll never know
Because we don't talk
You helped me realise
All the love I need 
I have 
In my heart

Was It Almost Love?

Liquid Soma is a psybass/psychill DJ and producer. Big fan of Entheogenic, Kalya Scintilla, Ott and Shpongle, she takes you into the deepest psychedelic dimensions. Breakbeat, sound design, powerful basslines, Eastern melodies and ethnic voices – this is all that you need to know about her music. 

Started her DJ career from psytrance in 2008, and after falling in love with psychill performed with both styles. In 2013 started making her own music and after few psytrance tracks decided to do something freeform, and ended up with psydub. Making more tracks and playing them in her sets she got more and more demand from different labels.

Veronika plays her own music mixed with tunes by other artists with special effects and live elements in Ableton Live. Released her music on Mystic Sound rec., Free-Spirit rec., Sentimony rec. in the last two years. Performing all around Western and Eastern Europe and India, with top artists such as Entheogenic, Liquid Bloom, Terra Nine, Kuba, Kukan Dub Lagan and many others.

In 2021 joined a British label Visionary Shamanics records and became a label DJ and artist.

My second project is Chaosoma (psytrance, full on). Please follow if you love dancing and jumping! https://soundcloud.com/chaosoma

KASA BEATS (aka Karl Sageder) grew up in Austria at a time, when new raves took place at the coolest locations, the Love Parade was at its popularity peak, and ‘Clubbing’ became a thing. 

Heavily influenced by these BEATS, he has always loved the effect upbeat, electronic music has had on him. It still elevates his mood and makes him wanna move & dance. 

His tracks definitely have the rhythm and beat to workout, dance and be active. 

Without any paid ads, his track IGNITE took off on YouTube in July 2024 and stands at around 141,000 views at the time of writing. 

KASA BEATS is still at the beginning of his journey into music production and is just starting out as a DJ. He greatly appreciates your likes and follow.

Kat Kikta is a multi-dimensional artist, producer, singer, and songwriter.
Her creativity straddles music, film, and sound art. Through her use of sound healing instruments, her own field recordings, 'found' & electronic beats, and multi-layered vocals, she creates Avant-pop songs dripping with cinematic and ambient intentions.

Kat is a dedicated on-screen performer, and this becomes evident in the anticipated music videos attached to her work.
Many of the instruments Kat uses are normally found in the realm of healing, meditation, and spiritual mysticism. This is no accident, as she openly aims to create music that helps to heal and rekindle the spirit.

Katarina started life in the snowy mountains of communist-controlled Czechoslovakia, came to London with forty pounds in her pocket, and set about working her way through a Performing arts degree. Although she has always been a prolific writer of songs, she was to become a screen actress, video, and sound artist, before she started to write & perform her own songs.

On this journey, she overcame mental illness, a paralyzing lack of self-confidence, and recovered to become a qualified therapist & yoga and meditation teacher, self-funding her creative ambitions.

Self-development and growth are indeed strong themes running throughout her work. Whilst most of the music Kikta produces is comprised of electronic elements, she often employs exotic instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, water-phones, angel forks- instruments normally found in the realm of sound-healing and mysticism, perhaps evidence of her background, and a clue that she is interested in making music which elevates and inspires others.

Self-expression through songwriting, dance, and painting carried her through the hardest times and her self-confessed mission is to help others through her music with her truthful, unpretentious, and vulnerable lyrics.

A reoccurring notion prevalent in much of her work is that there is no experience that is so dark and intolerable that cannot be turned into a strength that can serve you.

Many of Kat's lyrics have come about in sudden moments of 'enlightenment' and clarity, most of them just 'came to her', as if downloaded.

“It is my responsibility in this life to channel and translate the things that come to me and find the best way to bring them into the world through sound, lyrics, melodies & atmosphere so that they can move onwards on their own journey. It’s important they don’t stop with me, but touch other people the same way they touched me."

Her music encounters our everyday stories and questions our perception of time, present moment, dreams & realities, space, and atmosphere, this is augmented by her visual work. She has produced and performed in a number of music videos to accompany her sounds, which often cross the boundary from music video to art film to drama and back again.
Kat is currently releasing songs from her debut album Moldavite.



SOPHIA AYA 
Introducing a new dimension of artistic expression—an elevation into sacred sound and contemplative artistry—brought to life by Kat Kikta.

This innovative persona embodies a pursuit of higher consciousness, channeling a deeply spiritual and poetic approach to music. Rooted in Kat's lifelong journey of healing, self-discovery, and mysticism, her work explores the boundaries between ambient soundscapes, ritualistic tones, and transcendent melodies designed to evoke reflection and inner awakening.

Drawing from a rich tapestry of ancient instruments, sacred resonances, and organic field recordings, her compositions serve as portals into meditative realms and higher states of awareness. This phase of her creative evolution is intentionally crafted to inspire reverence, stillness, and spiritual connection—an invitation to listen with intention and to explore the depths of consciousness through sound.

Her background—shaped by childhood in the mystical landscapes of High Tatra mountains of Central Europe, overcoming personal challenges, and studying holistic healing—continues to inform her artistic vision. This new musical language is a vessel for exploring mystical themes, plant medicine, healing energies, and the profound power of presence.

Through immersive sound and luminous visual accompaniments, she creates experiences that transcend entertainment, becoming sacred rituals of reflection and transformation. Her intention is to foster a space where listeners can reconnect with their inner truths, guided by music that seeks to elevate and inspire.

While Kat's work engages with lyrical and more traditional song writing, this refined expression delves into the high art of spiritual exploration. It is an invitation to venture beyond the ordinary and into a realm of sacred sound, where music becomes a catalyst for awakening and divine insight.

Currently, she is releasing a series of transcendental compositions—meditative, ritualistic, and deeply resonant—designed to guide listeners on their own journeys of inner discovery.

Danny Berman aka Red Rack'em is described by Juno Records as 'one of the most respected figures in UK underground house circles'. Creator of classics 'Wonky Bassline Disco Banger' (hammered by DJ Harvey, Moodymann and even Elton John), 'In Love Again', 'How I Program', 'Kalimba', 'Tomato Pope', he's also a much loved broadcaster working with SWU.FM, Rinse FM, WWFM and NTS and guest spots on BBC Radio 1 for Pete Tong, Mistajam and Gilles Peterson. He's been even more busy during the pandemic supporting other artists with his 'How I Program' music producer community.

Since returning to the UK (after 8 years in Berlin), he's been releasing killer records like 'Wonky Techno Banger', 'Overthinking' and his Red Baron collab with Ron Basejam from Crazy P (huge support from Gerd Janson, Avalon Emerson and more), as well as undertaking huge tours of USA, India and Asia playing at clubs like Tag in Chengdu (Chinas Berghain), Rhonda in LA (one of the hottest pan sexual parties in the US) and Smart Bar in Chicago.

He's a super adaptable DJ, just as comfortable playing blazing disco boogie at Pickle Factory in London, deep house at TV Lounge in Detroit or raw swingy techno at Mothers Finest in Berlin.
