MWNKI is the sound of sentient sticks beating syncopated secrets like a code that opens hidden doors and moves through you like bass shaking forest floors when the vibrations are right and you're looking for more. It's those songs you think you know in ways you never heard them before. It's human. Animalistic. Natural. It's a fleeting chance swinging from branch to branch. MWNKI is what happens when you say yes to dance.

It’s not often that you hear bass music as tranquil as the soundscapes of Krstos. The nomadic DJ and producer’s decade of travel has translated into an eclectic discography indeed, but all of his songs exhibit an instantly recognizable harmony between individual sonic elements.

The highs meet the lows in each of his complex and emotionally rich arrangements much like ocean waves meet with the shore. Having put genres like trap, dubstep and future bass through his own unique creative filter, he has boasts releases under the name Krstos through Bay Area imprints like Street Ritual, MalLabel, We Got This as well as Melbourne, Australia-based Adapted Records.

The impressive range of sound Krstos is capable of producing is also due to the wide array of artists that have directly influenced him. Born Christopher Hicks in Houston, Texas, he owes his earliest musical experiences to his godfather, Doug Pinnick , who was the bassist and lead singer of the metal band King’s X . At the age of 17 he moved in with his genetic father, who played a crucial role in his spiritual awakening by teaching him about sound healing & universal frequencies. Four years later, the two of them relocated to Tucson, Arizona.

Once he was old enough to leave home, however, Krstos set off to explore the West Coast like a gypsy. In the early years he traveled with little more than a laptop and cast-iron skillet in a backpack. At first he only ever recorded himself playing acoustic instruments like guitar, hand drums, djembe, didgeridoo and mandolin, but in 2009 he began teaching himself how to produce digitally in the DAW Ableton.

His subsequent releases under the moniker Seraphim Kristos arrived in a multitude of different forms. Albums like Nights & Days With or Without You consisted entirely of acoustic songs, while efforts such as Trail X Dust and his Endfull VISIONS EP resulted from more ambient, ethereal musings. By 2013’s SHADOWS OF LIGHT , elements of more contemporary electronic music like trip-hop and dubstep found their way into his productions – although in 2014 he released ELECTRO*MAGNETIC*RECALIBRATOR, a meditational chakra journey whose eight tracks consisted entirely of ambient harmonic sound healing frequencies.

By the time he abbreviated his name to Krstos in 2015, though, his distinctive synthesis between Oakland hip-hop/bass and more obscure, experimental electronic music began to fully coalesce. Hints of his over drive and distortion-laden sound can be heard in the StardustEP of the same year, and 2016’s Expressions EP demonstrated his keen sense of melody. By his three-track EP Spirals , which came out on MalLabel, his signature style began to garner significant attention.

When you take into account his spiritual background, it comes as no surprise that Christopher would consider sound to be the source of everything. It becomes immediately apparent that he does not take his role as a musician lightly. He simply hopes that each aural expression might serve to realign the mind, body and soul of its listener, humbly acting as an earthly conduit.

Now having begun to release material directly through music libraries for Film & TV, you can expect to hear even more diverse permutations of the Krstos sound in the years to come.

Dirtwire is a traveler’s collage of Earth-borne instruments and electronic sounds foraged from Electric Forest to the mountains of Tuva. From their home on the west coast of the United States to far-flung destinations all over the world, these troubadours are welcomed for speaking the most unifying language there is: music.

Every live set is a magician’s surprise show, an invitation to experience instruments that are usually heard only as samples in electronic music. It is a celebration of the art of the instrument, not just the sound you can record from it. Future revival, swamptronica, spaghetti-step, electro-twang — whatever you call Dirtwire’s music, what matters is that you can dance to it, as sure as a lizard dances in the desert.

Dirtwire, comprised of lifelong friends and musicians Evan Fraser, David Satori, and Mark Reveley, are touring now in support of their new record “Road Goes All Night”. The road goes further yet, friends. Come see where it leads at a show near you.

Big love and thanks for the reposts, favs, and share love.

EarthCry is Anthony Thogmartin’s solo music, serving as an outlet for his more "electronic" musical ideas, as well as a place to try experimental genre mashing, developmental frequency blending, and odd instrument combinations. Staying true to live roots, an EarthCry show can consist of any combination of live instruments, mixing, slicing, looping, and cutting overtop of arrangements that come out differently every time. All the while, electronic controls are always facing the crowd to encourage a deeper experience of interaction. His most recent release “Sun Path” “…emerges as an album meant for this moment. A soundtrack for the collective consciousness of today’s higher-level thinkers, intent on assimilating all of the old to push forth the new.” – Lost in Sound. Other notable musical outputs have been his debut album "Hear the Earth, Heal Yourself, Heal the Earth, Hear Yourself", a voyage into 6 solfeggio tones. He has also released 2 "Mother’s Mashups" which are combinations of 2 songs that mysteriously fit together in fun ways. As a beneficial operation, EarthCry also donates earnings to different ecological initiatives around the world.

Lapa weaves together musical stories with complexly textured harmonies, expansive melodies, and intricately layered beats. His music blurs borders and transcends boundaries, illuminating the resonance of universal forces and teleporting people to wild, dream-like places of serenity and connection.
