recent mixtapes

This mix is to farewell us into the upcoming season, which I sure hope will be recharging and contemplative. Some tracks that once touched my soul, put together in hopes of touching yours. Suitable for walks, talks, gymnastics as well as static activities.

Oddities Vol. 1

At an uncertain time of the twilight, in one of the deepest, darkest but also most pleasing corner of Helsinki's underground, we got the chance to share our night journey with https://soundcloud.com/thisandthatkita 

In between psychedelics murals and ultraviolet lights, an apparent kindness and a shared appreciation for progressive music led us to fastly create bonds and become friends with this young and passionate soul. Nikita and his collective Hotspot contribute to the too-little known but flourishing scene from Helsinki, by putting together events and podcast series to keep the fire burning. In those cold forests and windy concrete corridors, where saunas are sometimes the only source of heat, we were gifted by his encounter and are happy to have him on-board the Aquatic Gardens series.

Recorded when our paths crossed again in Amsterdam, this set filled with dancefloor weapons will accompany your misbehaving thoughts, getting you ready for a night out.

For the next episode we are pleased to welcome Nikita K to the mix series.

Some words by the DJ about this mix. "Some of my favourite 90’s progressive house tracks with a few modern trance bits. Feels like the most old-school set from what I’ve recorded so far. Bouncy to flowing and back again."
