Variations w/ Echium - 11th October 2021

@philipp-otterbach

Holiday wishes from Berlin!

For the last mix of the year we have one of our close friends and label's artist on board. Philipp Otterbach used a lot of guitar tracks in here, however he mentioned that “he hates it when people describe their mixes as a "Special guitar mix" or "vinyl only" or whatever”, it’s a logical followup on Philipp’s previous mixes. It contains favorite tracks from Philipp’s youth, stuff he found over the years and some new records he digged and ordered through the pandemic. A lot of 7inches in here, more than in any other of his mixes. 

Phillip has some great new music coming out soon - don’t forget to follow the news.

Our next mix is from Glasgow sound-artist Velvachell, a new solo project by Rachel McDermott of WomenSaid. Her recent installation 'to yourself' at Listen Gallery totally blew us away - an immersive multi-channel environment capturing the frenetic energy of Jilotepec and its neighbouring Mexico City.

The mix uncovers a sonic palette that has informed her sound work. Rachel artfully builds tension through the esoteric murmurs of fragmented vocal drones, distorted field recordings and pensive string instruments. In heightened surroundings, a frenzied energy emerges in the post-punk and industrial sound that has informed her previous work. The diverging of these sounds is totally intoxicating, and captures the potent energy of her exciting new sonic explorations.

Julia Mira is a DJ, multidisciplinary artist, and LYL and Echobox radio resident from Estonia based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Inspired by a background in painting, as a DJ she takes up music as her palette. Her selections are utterly unpredictable, layering all in all, depending on the specific occasion. Her sets are expanding to a transcendent sound exploration with elements of left-field ambient, polyrhythmic rave insertions, and delicate electronic experimentalism. Approaching each set like a canvas, a blend of sensations are evoked, leaving sensual, imaginative space for lucid dreams, vivid stories, and an air of mystery to arise.

The next instalment in the Theory Therapy series comes from a particularly special selector, Russia's Sophia Zhuravkova.

Sophia adores nature and it clearly shines through in all of her work. In what seems like a very short space of time, the composer has established herself as one of the most impressive young ambient artists to emerge from Russia in recent years. In 2020, she captivated us with an appearance on Stay in Bed Vol.2 — released on DJ Earl Grey's Best Effort Records — put out her debut LP Unseen on Prins Emmanuel's excellent Ny Agenda imprint and then gifted us with the expansive Obstacles in October. Like the best ambient producers, her music expertly balances background and foreground. Field recordings — from spoken word and white noise to the soft lapping of waves — intersect with more melodic passages: reverberant drones, diffuse pads and the occasional acoustic instrument. 

The same can be said of her Theory Therapy mix. It replicates the experience of being somewhere special — like the stillness of an empty park or a rainy city sunrise after a night out. Sonically, it is both intimate and immersive; synths, dronescapes and haunting vocals pull you into where it was recorded: in the warm confines of her home during a wintry day in Kiev. So put the kettle on and get comfortable; this is music made to be listened to closely.
