Ambient Sessions # 99 - Alessandro Crimi

Verveine ☉ Ouroboros Festival 2023

This summer, after working all the year imagining, preparing and designing our beloved Ouroboros festival, we had a special moment of relief on the Saturday morning, waking up with the ambient and dubby tones of Verveine, one of our members, and see that the first night as passed, everything finally went very well and it was continuing to flow till the next day. 

It’s hard to find the right words to describe the crazy vibes we experienced so we made sure to retranscrit with this podcasts a bit of it to transmit it. More coming !

Dive into this first mix of Ouroboros festival 2023 to live again this wonderful experience.

Good friend and constant source of inspiration Alex Albrecht, joined me to celebrate my 300th episode of Passing Notes.

Few artists channel a consistent stream of creativity like Alex Albrecht. With over a decade of music-making under his belt, Alex has cultivated a distinct and frankly iconic musical identity. Effortlessly shapeshifting between experimental jazz, ambient, atmospheric house, and deep techno, Alex’s compositions are marked by an environmental undertone that imbues them with a uniquely “Alex Albrecht” earthly sense of place. Simultaneously anchoring and weightless, the common thread between it all is Alex’s ability to leave listeners safely ensconced in a swell of emotional resonance.

Improvisation and exploration are at the heart of Albrecht’s craft. His constantly evolving and captivating live performances have taken him to far corners of the globe, with appearances at iconic venues like Bassiani in Georgia, Monument in Norway, and Vent in Tokyo just to name a few. Each journey fuels his exploratory nature, offering new opportunities to immerse himself in the world around him. Field recordings serve as an auditory journal—postcards sent home to evoke memories of space and place that form the ever-important foundation of his creative process. These recordings provide a naturalistic canvas upon which Alex layers syncopated rhythmic subtleties and soaring, colorful synthetic brushstrokes.

With a rich discography amassing on celebrated labels such as A Strangely Isolated Place, Constellation Tatsu, Apollo, Scissor & Thread, and his own Analogue Attic Recordings—also celebrating its 10th anniversary this year—Albrecht’s work reflects a steadfast commitment to artistic authenticity and a depth of accrued knowledge now expressed through a craft so refined that oft feels effortless.

It was an honour to have Alex performing LIVE in the studio to celebrate this milestone together and share in his music that will continue to inspire us all.

Madah Sounds present @up-4 (Upwellings)

Whispers of the setting Sun/
As the sun sets, we feel its warm embrace,  
Whispers of gold dance upon the waves.  
With the rhythm of the earth, we sway in this place;  
Nature's love reminds us that we are free and brave.  
We breathe deeply, allowing the good vibes to take flight,  
Underneath the painted sky, everything feels right.  
In this fleeting moment, our spirits intertwine;  
Let this magic linger as the stars begin to shine.  

Bio/
Upwellings is a Dub-Techno project created by the protean musician Vincent Raude. Cultivating a minimalist approach to techno and a strong affinity for micro-textures, he produces hypnotic music that draws its roots and techniques from Jamaican dub masters. Numerous EPs have been released on various labels since 2008. These productions have earned him the support of artists such as Alexkid, Laurent Garnier, Cio D'or, etc...and he has been working with labels Telrae ), MOSHItaka, Tiefenrausch, Spclnch, Greyscale, Dimensions Recordings for EPs that were very popular in the Dub-Techno's network. Performing exclusively live, from clubs to festivals, from Berlin to Montreal, it is on stage that Upwellings gives its whole meaning to the word "Dub."

Whispers of the Setting Sun

We asked friends of Stólar: What kind of music lives inside the A.Y.O.R.  Chair by Ron Arad? 
A chair made of polished steel and lead, its form evoking a tilting question mark. 
A chair that challenges the viewer to rethink the role of design. 

Listen to ORIONs answer - our friends from Italy present a one-hour soundtrack interpreting the spirit of this magnificent piece of design.

The A.Y.O.R. Chair  ||| Soundtrack by ORION

Amsterdam’s Ratherlost crew has spent the past few years perfecting the art of the marathon rave. Their home base is Lofi, a cavernous warehouse where sound, light, and visuals fuse into long-haul journeys that stretch well past the 18-hour mark. But epic runtimes mean nothing without the right hands at the controls, and Ratherlost has proven it knows how to curate, pace, and execute like pros.

Lofi’s two-floor setup allows for shifting moods: daylight hours wander through deep, dubby techno, slowly morphing into faster, syncopated rhythms as night tightens its grip. Pacing is everything in a space like this. And when it comes to the craft of pacing, few do it better than Bas Dobbelaer.

Bas is one of our favorite DJs for a reason. He understands that a warm-up set is an architecture rather than just background noise. It shapes the room, sets the tone, and welcomes dancers into the story. The mix we’re thrilled to share today was recorded live at Ratherlost’s Easter Sunday session at Lofi, where Bas shared the bill with artists like Aaron J, Na Nich & Vera Logdanidi, Aurora Halal, DVS1, upsammy, Occa, Agonis, Dasha Rush, Seb H, and Oscar Mulero. Quite the roster.

In the face of that stacked lineup, Bas delivered a masterclass in restraint and elegance. His three-hour set unfolds like a novel, tracing dub techno’s DNA across the past two decades. The vibe is timeless, spacious, and beautifully measured, a perfect example of how to warm up a warehouse without blowing the doors off too soon.
This is precisely the kind of DJing we live for: subtle yet commanding, hypnotic yet full of life. Clear your next 180 minutes. Plug in. And get a little Ratherlost yourself.

Delayed x Ratherlost: Bas Dobbelaer

Nothing feels like before.

Not because everything has changed, but because you have.
Somewhere between now and then, something softened.

Time stretched, shadows lengthened, and the pulse beneath it all slowed — just enough for you to notice.

You don’t need to know where you’re going anymore.
It’s enough to drift, to dissolve, to listen.

Swiss producer Ben Kaczor and Swedish producer Martinou have been tracing parallel lines across the deeper shades of house and techno for over a decade. What began as a connection through SoundCloud has since bloomed into an understated, sonic kinship — now embodied in their joint alias: Terik Hensen.

With Nothing Feels Like Before, the 31st edition in the Discos Movimiento mix series, the duo opens a portal into something restrained yet expansive. A meditative flow of dub-inflected grooves and minimal percussion that moves like breath — steady, intimate, and full of space.

It’s not a beginning or an end.
Just a moment. A shift. A subtle unfolding.
And maybe that’s enough.

Tarik Hensen - Nothing Feels Like Before / Mixtape Discos Movimiento #31

things ive done sundays recently:  

- sat on the couch, watching horror movies on mute, drinking coffee, making tunes
- drove to Footscray to help my friend Reis record his band
- heated up leftover lebanese food and made a sort of shakshuka with it
- hung out with my Mum, looking at family photos
- nursed a hangover, drove to northcote plaza and bought 6 donut holes

Sundays are for... other joe

After visiting the lakeside dreamland last year I couldn't help myself but imagine on the moment what I would play if I had the opportunity to perform there myself (as any DJ would, I guess). I had different archetypes of sets forming in the back of my mind for different times of the day possible, if the opportunity ever came one day. 
So when I got invited to play the opening of Floresta on Sunday, it first came as a bit of a surprise, but the surprise turned into excitement and it was time to prepare a special set where I could dig into my dub techno collection. 
So, I am very happy to share with you the recording of my set, where I finally had the chance to play slow, deep, dubby and sunny techno in such a setting. 
Thank you @wakinglifeportugal for the opportunity. 
I hope you enjoy !

Altinbas at Waking Life 2025, Sunday Floresta Opening

How about something different this time ? 💛 Join me on a little trip to the deeper side of electronic music, recorded at one of my favorite places - Bar Ton in Bucharest. Hope you'll enjoy this journey, music lover! 😘

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/hame

Amsterdam-based producer and DJ Hame contributes to the IA MIX Series with a set that blends dubby textures, unreleased material, and tracks from artists including Martinou, Pango, and Leonel Castillo. In the interview, @hame-compathy reflects on his musical journey - from childhood instruments and early experiments with FL Studio to releases on labels like Noire & Blanche, Far Blue, and Project Indigo. He also shares the story behind @pintai growth, its sculptural and abstract visual identity, and the philosophy guiding the label’s carefully curated output.

This is 2 hour mix I recently did for a radio show hosted by the homies at Lips & Rhythm in San Francisco. The first hour is mostly spacey ambient, dub, and atmospheric, cosmic noodling. From there it moves into some deep, groovy house cuts. Suggestion for listening: cannabis and a hot bath.

Berlin Cocktail Bar - Thank You Brother

Inspired by the set we played in Amsterdam at this year's ADE Festival at the fabulous 'This is Not a Party' event. Unfortunately, 2 recorders let us down that night, but we wanted to recreate the vibe and atmosphere since we had lots of fun that night. It contains basically all of the tracks we played there, it just misses that 'live' moment, but that's ok. 
Get cozy, clear your schedule for the next 100min and let us take you for a ride.
