For the third installment of our podcast series, we welcome Australian-born Berlin-based dj, producer, and soundscape artist Sa Pa. With a name referencing northern Vietnam's high, foggy mountains, expect a live recorded podcast from our May party that resembles the northern parts of Vietnam: Hazy, clear and unclear, mystic, and at times pushing forward, finding directions, this podcast feels like a (musical) journey of ambient soundscapes, dub, and pitched down that leaves one to reach the higher spheres (of Vietnam).

Sa Pa - NLDMIX 003

For this episode of transience we are honoured to have sound artist and practioner, @sarahwreath 's live gong and electronic set, which uses a 110hz frequency to help with emotional processing and relaxation. About her contribution for transience she says the following;

"This is a version of my current ambient live set containing the pure tone of the 110hz frequency. This frequency – widely known as the fundamental pitch of the human voice used by ancient practitioners for mantra chanting – has been shown to help with emotional processing and relaxation, and has a profound effect on the right hemisphere of the brain. The right brain is known to be the seat of artistic expression, spirituality, emotion, imaginative thinking and breakthrough innovation. Research has shown that accessing and stimulating the right brain leads to better problem-solving skills and less conflict in people.

This live set was originally created to be performed together with a Chao Gong. The pulses and acoustic waves played promote a state of relaxation and a healthy nervous system."

EOS Radio - Sybil ◍ Invited by One Instrument

Somewhere lurking under the last leaves on the ground, squirming and squelching with the mycelium and microorganisms, we find Timnahs sonic world tucked away in a sacred place. Taking inspiration from the natural world, she has solidified a name for herself as a purveyor of psychedelic rhythms and carefully curated cacophonies. As a resident at the renowned Elysia club in Basel, she has honed her skills further and expanded her sound into ambient and experimental territories. 

This edition of Unrush is a testament to Timnah's ear for the uncanny and sense for crafting a dynamic narrative. Solemn drones guide us like a soft breeze into the winter months, only interrupted by washes of organic textures and subtle electronics. We hope you enjoy this masterful mix from one of Switzerland's finest.

Today I am so happy to welcome my friend fka boursin to Deep Mind Music, with a quietly reflective entry for the end of January. 

It was around this time of year back in 2022, that I first remember having a deep chat with fka boursin about our mutual interest in the power of ambient. We were both equally enthused to encounter another AmbientAddict and quickly rattled off artists, labels and tracks for each other to check. I have found in fka boursin a similarly discerning soul, not just in music, but life in general, and his intricate mix for Deep Mind Music reflects his thoughtful character.

A patient mix that rewards patient listening, fka boursin has crafted a narrative that skilfully dances between washes of sepia-toned warm drones, and–as he puts it below–“material sounds”, such as whirling whizzes of machines or twittering birds, which give us a sense of place. The perfect soundtrack to a meditative drift of the mind between thoughts and reality. I have greatly enjoyed listening to it on cold misty walks over the past week, and hope you do too ☁️🪶🤍

Some words from fka boursin about the mix:

When considering the themes for this mix, I drew from the different approaches that Sybil and I use in our work. Sybil says that themes for her come from “more of a feeling/colour/texture than something     explainable” which is in contrast with my desire for explicit material reference points. Though these approaches might be seen as existing on a somewhat linear abstract vs material scale, there is a large overlap in the sonic characters that they each employ. Here, I have deliberately mixed with tracks that perhaps encourage one to get “lost” (abstract) before pulling the listener back into the room using what I consider to be “material” sounds. Paradoxically though, those sounds are often perceived as feeling/colour/texture anyway, leading Sybil and I to the same musical end points. To me, this firstly emphasises the limitations of audio and secondly may partly explain why Sybil and I get on so well.

"Playing music at Temple was a real pleasure, thanks to the organizing crew, Espacio Perpendicular, and the attendees. A beautiful memory for those who were there, dancing and daydreaming. As the last DJ set of the event, my intention with the mix was to encourage swaying, static dancing. Just like in Telaraña, my show on Radio Relativa, I tried to harmonize classic sounds from the '90s like dub, downtempo, IDM... Inspired by the significant chill-out movement of that decade. CHILL OUT OR DIE!"

Fear of Music (http://fearofmusic.org) was in many ways a precursor to Standards & Practices @stanprac — we threw sporadic events and shared mixes online, made by likeminded midwest techno fans during the 'dark years' (the aughts, when minimal ruined everything). This was the first release in our mix series and, as of today, it's exactly 15 years old. To us, it still sounds ahead of its time.

From @karlpmeier — 'It's hard to believe this mix is 15 years old. Pretty soon it'll be asking for the keys to the car and the ability to stay out past 10pm. Funny story - one night Jeff and I were at Smart Bar (I think; "the mind plays tricks" as Alan Partridge famously said) and Jeff had been telling me about this artist named 2562 who had released his first LP, "Aerial", the year prior. Jeff had been listening to it non-stop and told me that I absolutely had to investigate. Well, long story short - we were approached by friends that night to open for him at Lava Lounge. We could hardly believe it - it was such a odd coincidence. Now, at the time, I knew very little about "dubstep", ultimately - that was more Jeff's area of expertise. But I was intrigued, and it was a fairly exciting time for electronic music, as there was a lot of genre "cross pollination" going on. All the cheap rave revivalism hadn't started to happen just yet, and there was seemingly a lot of room to explore combining techno and other genres with this new form of music. Jeff and I had expressed some interest in what we could do DJing with Ableton, and this inaugural outing is fairly representative of what we were listening to at the time - and also reflects other influences that we thought might fit in and work well. Really, we were just drunk on the possibilities of what we could do - and ultimately I thought it all worked out quite well. The night ended up being probably one of the most successful gigs I'd been a part of in ages. The crowd was up for it, and the atmosphere was fantastic. Anyway, that's enough nostalgia - hope you enjoy, and thanks for listening.'
