Amor Fati

Another deep and delicious journey at one of my favourite venues in Bali - the Yoga Barn. 🔥

It's been such an honour to be given the space to share my most authentic expression as a DJ. 🙏

Shadow Dance is my gift to the community, and to the world. ❤️

Thank you all for your continued support. If you're in Bali, join us at the next Shadow | Dance, the first Wednesday of every month.

May this mix give you the permission you need to be your wildest, sexiest, darkest self... and allow all the parts of you to rise from the shadows.

Blessings,
-Toltech-

XIV Winter Mix Volume 14

Stream & DL : https://talex.fanlink.tv/illusions

TALEX makes his debut on Gravitas Recordings with a powerful EP out March 31st on all platforms. The tracks bring cinematic and emotional qualities while keeping a bass music foundation, telling a story in a beautiful way. Most of the inspiration for this EP came from modern forward-thinking electronic artists such as Flume and CharlesTheFirst, and also a great deal of inspiration from film score composer Hans Zimmer. This blend of inspirations creates a poetic bass music composition that really moved us.

“This project is meant to be a cinematically, emotionally driven piece to help make sense of the constant cloak we, and society, wave in front of our eyes. Covering the illusions of: Reality, Love, Spirituality, and Perception, the music is supposed to be heard front to back and provide a sense of comfort in knowing others can be facing the same confusion about life that the listener might be.” - TALEX

Illusions opens up with a beautiful soundscape, slowly bringing in a reese bass and building with enchanting vocal chops and pads. The drop pulls back and introduces a catchy drumbeat while continuing to build into something even bigger, the last drop lands much heavier while still keeping the same beauty from before to create a surreal listening experience. Desire continues this beautiful atmosphere with chopped vocals and an epic breakbeat build into a huge half-time drop. The vocals and bass are mesmerizing and truly take the listener somewhere special. Skies Above brings in captivating singing from ALEA and showcases a much deeper bass heavy sound, while still maintaining the cinematic feel of the whole EP. Perception closes out the release with rapper Malik Elijah for a blend of bass music and rap, with heavy sound design and enchanting synths. It continues into an epic breakdown full of breakbeats and ends with a drum & bass drop to bring it to its peak energy, a perfect journey.

Skies Above

TALEX - Skies Above (feat. ALEA)

I've had the absolute pleasure of creating and hosting my own event, Shadow Dance, at the Yoga Barn, here in Ubud, Bali, over the last year or so. 🥰

It's been such a joy and honour to create this space, to give myself permission to play all of my favourite, deepest, darkest, sexiest tracks, and to give SO many people, who come to the dance, permission to be their most wild, free, embodied selves. 🔥

Thank you to everyone who has ever attended a Shadow Dance, or any of my sets. I am beyond grateful to be able to share my magic and medicine with one of the most incredible dance communities in the world! ❤️

This was probably my favourite Shadow Dance yet! It was so yummy, and such a deep journey. ✨

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

ETHNO is releasing his debut EP “Musicology Vol. 1” on Gravitas Recordings September 1st.  This EP is the beginning of the artistic gates opening for ETHNO, sitting on hours of original music and ready to show the world this first chapter.  Jeffrey Franca (ETHNO) is the drummer and musical director for Thievery Corporation and has a full lifetime of touring and influences under his belt.  His unique approach on global bass music incorporates all of these influences from around the world into a special blend of sounds.  We are excited for what is next for this legend and his project ETHNO.

“This is an amazing introduction to the experiences and influences realized by a life in music.  The EP is a unique approach to global bass dance music, crossing genres and borders alike. This sound and approach stand out sonically and rhythmically amongst the masses of bass producers and DJs, a truly unique experience” - ETHNO

The Journey opens the EP with panning female vocal chants, flutes and synths filling the air and painting a beautiful soundscape.  It drops into flowing bass and beautiful stabby synths, epicly building into a larger drop incorporating a new lead and a flow beat. Awake again (ft. Celestine) slows down the tempo and starts with lush string instruments and beautiful vocals that immediately teleport us to another world.  Building on top with catchy electronic synth leads and a catchy chorus, this one can put anyone in a good mood. Exhale has a beautiful downtempo intro and slowly brings in electronic leads and similar sounds to the previous tracks, maintaining the same vibe yet showing a different side to the project.  Leaf Water opens with beautiful analog synth stabs and vocal chops, echoing around the soundscape and immediately enchanting the listener. Slowly building and layering new ideas, this meditative beat brings in heavier bright synths that brings us back to the old school electronic music sound.  My Personality (ft. Born-I) switches it up and brings a higher energy groove and brings in iconic rapper Born-I.  Focusing more on the beat and rap than the synths and other ideas, while still incorporating the sound and style that ETHNO has created for this release.  A perfect end to the release that leaves us wanting more.
