Indelible downtempo selections from one half of the a.s.o duo.

Theory Therapy 52 is by Berlin-based Aussie singer, songwriter and DJ Alias Error. Alia is one half of a.s.o. (the other half is Tornado Wallace), a duo that have been releasing some of the most memorable downtempo we’ve heard in a long time. Can’t wait to hear their debut album out next month. Also highly recommend checking out Alia's monthly radio show on Refuge Worldwide too if you haven’t already. Like this mix, it’s chock-full of indelible downtempo and trip-hop selections.

Washington D.C. artist soso tharpa explores the theme of intimacy for the latest instalment of Untitled 909's mix series. With questions like 'what does it mean to be intimate? Does intimacy thrive off curiosity? At what point does curiosity end and intimacy begin?', soso tharpa throws conventional mix formulas out of the window to create a session that flickers between the challenging and the bliss, floating through the bass-heavy soundscapes of dubstep, dub techno and some wonked-out techno moments including a personal favourite Mike Parker track.  

This contrasting element of chaos and balance is something that is found within soso tharpa's productions too, like his most recent release 'Fistful of Shells' on Nervous Horizon. The six track EP released in September last year drew influences from bass, techno and IDM and unfolds like an ever evolving journey, continuing to discover new ground as you listen through. Noting DJ EZ's Boiler Room as one of his most formative musical experiences, this moment led soso tharpa down a rabbit hole of bass and garage music, citing that 'something about that swing and micro-riddim spoke to me'. This influence can still be found across his productions, releasing his first track for a Bon Appetit Records compilation in 2019, as well as tracks  on Future Times, Rhythm Section, 1432 R and Human Pitch. Being nestled within the small music community of Washington D.C. has allowed soso tharpa to create a sound of his own, nurturing a slower approach to his output and appreciate every artist that comes through the city.

🌾 SESSION XVIII — CHALGA OF THE CARPATHIANS  

Enter the mist-wrapped mountain passes of the Balkans. “Chalga of the Carpathians” weaves hypnotic non-lexical chants, polyphonic vocal trills, and breath-punctuated harmonies into a forest-born ritual. Gadulka drones, kaval flourishes, and tapan drum rhythms echo through the Carpathian dusk, accompanied by goatskin frame drum taps, swirling Şalgam reeds, and pine-shaded field recordings.

This session honors the ecstatic tradition of mountain song—from Bulgarian village calls to Romanian forest hymns. It’s a trance of stone and smoke, echo and breath.

▸ Region: Carpathian Mountains — Bulgaria, Romania  
▸ Vocals: female choir–style Balkan trills, breathy chants, ritual syllables  
▸ Sounds: gadulka, kaval, tapan, Şalgam wind textures, goat-skin drums, forest ambience  
▸ Mood: dusk ritual • mountain trance • ancestral glow

e O is the shared moniker of sibling artists eleu and Olson, whose debut self-titled album ‘e O’ arrives as a beautifully blurred portrait of two inner worlds colliding. Raised on parallel but distinct soundtracks, their collaboration captures the hazy overlap of childhood memory and present-day influence—filtered through a language all of their own.

The record shimmers at the edges of genre, folding together fragments of ambient pop, left-field R&B, experimental electronics, and traces of shoegaze. Olson’s production is built from gently layered textures that ricochet and swell, creating a sense of movement that feels both precise and ineffable, while eleu navigates the album with intimate, delicate vocals. It’s music that feels like stepping into a dream already in progress.

e O draws from a palette of softness and distortion, of digital haze and real-world textures, echoing those in-between hours where clarity and feeling drift in and out of focus. A work of intuition and subtle transformation, this is a debut that doesn't introduce itself loudly—but lingers long after.
