Substak - Beatless Tales Mix

A welcome return to the series for our friend Faru with an inspired hybrid mix that captures the bittersweet essence of summer's farewell.

Faru is a Berlin-based musician, designer and explorer. He is crafting Drone and Ambient music from his nature recordings from around the world. His works have been described as a natural orchestra in a dream-like manner. Exploring movements of nature, noise and harmonics. Labels include Silent Season, Faint and Carpe Sonum (FAX)

About the mix he said:
"This hybrid mix drifts through layers of sound that feel like half-remembered dreams and moments suspended between past and present. It carries a sense of nostalgia, of looking back at places and times that still echo somewhere within. The sounds paint old memories into focus, though never quite as they were. Sometimes blurred, sometimes distorted, always shaped by the way we remember them as individuals. Textures and gentle warmth intertwine, like memories fading in and out of view. It’s music for reflection, for wandering through old feelings, and for revisiting those fragments of time that never completely leave us."

Deep Breakfast 325 ~ Faru

"Old walls breathe with the sound of running streams.
Here, resistance turns to melody and memory to light.
Through the hush of ancient laundries, water carries forgotten voices."

Author’s note: In this set—beyond the water theme, where we play with certain field recordings that evoke it, like the dripping of irrigation systems, the Mediterranean Sea (since we are in Catalonia, with a poem by Ovidi Montllor at the beginning and another by Salvador Espriu near the end), rain, or even the washhouse itself—we also wanted to play with sunlight. Our set began in the sun and ended at night, and the musical progression was designed to follow that change.

Binomi (@binomi) is the project of Jordi Aparicio (@slim-jordi) and Joan Gila (@joan-gila), born from a friendship forged through music and a constant exchange of records, recommendations, and sonic curiosities. DJs and record collectors from Tarragona, they run the radio program of the Mostra festival together with their friend Javi, and have appeared on stations such as Dublab Barcelona with a show dedicated to exploring the history of musical movements across different regions.

DIGIT is a decentralized micro-festival of electronic music and digital art taking place on 12–13 September 2025 across Montbrió del Camp, Pratdip, and Reus (Tarragona). Organized by the cultural association El Rampell (@elrampell) - based in Pratdip, about 150 km from Barcelona - the festival brings contemporary culture to rural settings and the wider Tarragona region.

As part of the program, Binomi will perform at Els Rentadors during the deep-listening journey, sharing the stage with Bastien, .apart, Perila, and ABSIS.

HOCast #259 - Binomi - Digit 2025

We are delighted to bring you a gem from this year’s Mostra Festival: a two-hour live recording from Lynne, captured in Barcelona 2025. In this set, she moves with ease through ambient textures, deep basslines, rolling percussion, drones, and surprising rhythms. Her love for drum & bass and dubstep quietly ties it all together.

Lynne’s story began in Tokyo, where a first night raving to drum & bass changed everything. It sparked a move to London, where she soaked in jungle, dubstep, and the UK’s raw underground energy before returning home to shape her own sound within Tokyo’s experimental scene.

Now moving between Tokyo and London, Lynne explores the in-between spaces of techno, experimental, and drum & bass. Her mixes feel like small journeys: thoughtful, a little mischievous, and always true to the rhythms that first lit the spark.

Please enjoy this moment with Lynne’s musical selections - let it unfold slowly, take its time, and maybe surprise you along the way...

Thanks a lot to @lynne-tokyo

Lynne @ Mostra 17.04.2025

We were lucky to be joined by Hasvat Informant, a rare guest known for his swampy take on trance & techno. For this hour, he guides us through a meticulous trip of trippy textures and oozing low-end.
