Was it a crime to daydream your life away? Thinking about the what ifs and the should haves; imagining yourself in scenarios so far removed from your reality... There was certainly no harm in it, idealism was an escape, it provided a respite from what was happening here on solid ground. If you preferred to live way up above the clouds, drunk on fantasies and wishful thoughts, what of it? Let yourself drift... at least just for a moment.

rRoxymore has proved herself a master of leftfield electronics. These sounds have come via releases for Ideophone, Timedance and Don't Be Afraid, the longtime partner who've housed several of her records since 2016. On her new EP, I Wanted More, a debut outing for Aus she continues her exploration of contrasting textures and atmospheres - intricate and tender synths combat crunchy, powerful drums to create a "perfect elixir for any morning dance floor".

PREMIERE: rRoxymore - Drunken Clouds [Aus]

Outsiders: Gravity Network w/ Marie Pravda @ Kiosk Radio 30.09.2022

Tifra is a DJ/producer from Utrecht, The Netherlands. The budding DJ and producer shows his predilection for leftfield house and old school breaks. Punchy acid lines, balearic beats, electro tropes, and a delightful dose of deep house for your listening pleasure!

You might have heard his music on "Trans Atlantique" EP for Gestalt Records, a massive 90's-inspired 3-tracker full of proggy leftfield, old-school breakbeat and trance-laced electro. Or his “Mesoamerica” Vinyl EP for SNIPPETS including remixes of Marco Lazovic and KSKY. And not to forget his Plastic Replicant vinyl release on Duality Trax with Roza Terenzi on remix duties.

Hoshina Anniversary is from Hachioji, westside of Tokyo. His new LP of fluid, experimental dance music draws upon his influences of jazz fusion, electronica, and Japanese heritage. HakkyouShisou translates to “going crazy”, which captures the intensity and movement of a rhythmic / club atmosphere. Crisp, minimalist beats and melodies build at an urgent velocity, while a smoky piano plinks out chords.

“We slowly rot” was originally a tag that Front de Cadeaux found on a chair in the botanic garden in Rome. It refers to the necessary and permanent epistemological breakdown that music creation and its evolution requires.

A call from Turkey and the world to all music enthusiasts!

On February 6, 2023 Turkey and Syria were struck by two massive earthquakes (7,7 - 7,6 on the richter scale) in one day. The severity of the earthquake, the size of the area, the demographic and the large number of people being caught unprepared, combined with the harsh weather conditions, dramatically heightened the effects of this disaster. Since then a lot of local and global efforts have been put together to gather and transfer urgent help to the area, however these efforts are unfortunately inadequate in the face of the size of this catastrophic event. In a bid to help our country and its neighbours, Müstesna Records (TR) have decided to put together a relief compilation in collaboration with Ransom Note on their Dance Music From Planet Earth compilation label (UK).

As of now 48 artists from around the globe have contributed some of their beautiful work. The compilation will be released in two parts with the first part shared on Wednesday 1st March.

„Mokyklos suole naršydamas per nespalvoto telefono WAP naršyklę akis vis kliūdavo už paslaptingo renginio "Minimal Mondays". Smalsumo vedamas netrukus pradėjau jame lankytis. Galiausiai prisijungiau prie minimal.lt komandos, su kuria keliauju jau 10 metų. Minimal Mondays buvo tas renginys, kuriame debiutavau kaip DJ’us. Dėkoju komandai už sutiktus žmones, išgirstą muziką, aplankytas vietas ir neįtikėtinas istorijas. Linkiu pagaliau šiam renginiui patekti į UNESCO paveldo sąrašą.” — pasakoja Karolis Urbonas. Kartu su juo Minimal Mondays 19 gimtadienį švęsime jau rytoj: bit.ly/minimalmondays19

"While browsing through the WAP browser on my non-colored phone in the school hallway, my eyes stumbled upon the mysterious event called "Minimal Mondays." Curiosity led me to start attending it soon after. Eventually, I joined the minimal.lt team and have been traveling with them for 10 years now. Minimal Mondays was the event where I debuted as a DJ. I thank the team for the people I met, the music I heard, the places I visited, and the incredible stories. I hope that this event will finally be included in the UNESCO World Heritage list." - Karolis Urbonas remembers the good old days as we celebrate Minimal Mondays' birthday tomorrow: bit.ly/minimalmondays19
