emotional, powerful, and beautifully crafted, loved it

Hey everyone, I want to share a special mix I’ve put together as a tribute to my dear friend and talented Norwegian musician, Helge Tømmervåg, also known as Mind Over MIDI. Helge passed away on August 14, 2023, and he will always hold a special place in my heart. This mix is a small way to honor his incredible music and the beautiful person he was. Rest in peace, Helge—you’ll be missed but never forgotten.

Tracklist:
Sundown
Midnight 
Tetrode 
The five phases
Wave on wave 
Silence of the sea

Here and now
The rest is silence

Norwegian Midnight (Mind Over MIDI Tribute)

Today’s Pink Moon carries a gentle magic and is a perfect moment to share something truly special. Aligned with the energy of this lunar phase and her recent EP Pink Noise on Unrush, we couldn't imagine a better time to release Banu’s stunning mix for us.

Born in south-east Turkey, Banu is a DJ, producer, and sound artist who uses music as a political tool - a vehicle to express deep emotion and challenge systems of oppression. Her work sits at the intersection of contemporary art and activism, weaving together participation, social design, ecology, and feminist and queer theory into powerful multimedia installations where sound takes center stage.

This mix is a beautiful reflection of Banu’s multifaceted practice. Blending immersive soundscapes, Downtempo, and exceptional sound design, it’s a sonic journey that speaks to both the personal and the political - featuring some of our favorite artists and sounds we hold close. Tune in, slow down, and let yourself be moved...

For our 99th edition, we’re honoured to host Belgian producer Owl, whose meditative mix feels like a balm for overstimulated minds. Known for his collaborations as Glÿph (with Clearlight) and OZOH, Owl has been crafting deep sonic journeys since 2013 - seamlessly blending ambient, autonomic, and deep techno into a sound that’s as introspective as it is expansive.

With releases on some of our favorite labels like Silent Season, re:st, Lowless, and Huinali, Owl is a master of subtle textures and emotions. His mix for Unrush gently guides you through beautiful soundscapes and soothing atmospheres - the perfect companion to unwind, reset, and breathe a little deeper. It might just become your best friend in stressful times.

We’re taking a short summer break and will return in September with our 100th mix. Until then, let Owl’s sound world carry you through the quieter moments...

099 - Unrushed by OWL

When we first covered Les Chaos Ambiants, it was clear they weren’t aiming for the usual festival formula. Instead of big stages and brand sponsorships, they’re focused on how electronic music and art can interact with local identity and environmental urgency. For 2025, the festival returns to Sommant, right in the Morvan Regional Natural Park, continuing to build on this concept. There’s still just one stage, no clashes, no sprinting between acts, but now there’s added weight on multidisciplinary art, from Adrien Lamm’s sculptural installations by the lake to workshops exploring endangered species through sound and visual design.

The lineup remains eclectic but united by atmosphere, curated once again by Alfonso Pomeda, who’s also the artistic mind behind Barcelona’s Mostra Festival. The full lineup for 2025 includes ABSIS, Alcachofa, Avsluta, Faery, Fran Campos, Lynne , Merovee, Metshka Pampo, Myles Dillon, Nems-B, Orsu, Owl, Toé, and Sybil. Les Chaos Ambiants seems designed for people who treat listening as an experience in itself, a festival where silence and subtlety can carry as much weight as rhythm or volume. Which brings us naturally to one of this year’s standout additions.

Let’s be honest: some artists play music; others change the room around you. Owl belongs firmly in the second camp. Just a few weeks ago, he opened the infamous “La Cabaña”, the ambient and experimental temple at Perpendicular Festival, with a set steeped entirely in lush, enveloping ambient. It was a lesson in subtle power, transforming a cavernous space into something intimate and weightless. It wasn’t flashy, but it left everyone exhaling like they’d just remembered how to breathe. Owl’s ability to craft this atmosphere without ever sounding forced makes him a perfect fit for Les Chaos Ambiants. Here’s an artist who understands that music in a pine forest doesn’t need to shout. It only needs to glow...

Since 2012, Caldera (@caldera-caldera) has crafted a distinct fusion of techno and bass, known for its immersive sound design.

His rhythmic experimentation offers a fresh perspective on dance music, exploring a wide range of BPMs along the way.

His music has been released on respected labels like Nummer Music, Kimochi Sound, Pressure Dome, and Well Street Records.

About the mix:
“I wanted to start the mix slightly faster and with more energy than I usually do. I already had the Aleksi Perälä song in my head as an intro for a set so I went for it and built the mix from there. While doing the tracklisting the mix slowly dissolved into the emotional ambient ending which happened very naturally and felt right.”

Pintai Mix 010: Bas Dobbelaer

"A lucid dream is a dream in which a person becomes aware that he or she is dreaming, and it then becomes quite different from an ordinary dream. For one thing, it can be strikingly realistic - to the point of producing a convincing replica of the normal physical world - and for another, it has its own psychological characteristics and range of emotional reactions, which must be considered independently of those experienced in normal dreaming."

Spanish sonic alchemist Camu joins us on the series with a deep session recorded at Lucid Dreams at Espacio Perpendicular, a Madrid-based event space he co-founded with like-minded individuals who share a beautiful ear for the more obscure shades of electronic music.

The Observatory - Camu @ Lucid Dreams, 2025

The haze of Paral·lel festival has barely lifted, but we’re rewinding to another moment worth lingering on, February in Granada, at the Moonback club. There, under the warm glow of the Extramostra banner, Mostra linked up with the Klub Collective for a night that balanced local soul with an international touch. The lineup reads like a heads-only dream: Timnah, Antonio Vázquez, Refracted, and a solid core of Klub Collective residents including Fran Acosta, Kaizen, and Utopian. The kind of night that reminded us why the first slot matters more than most people admit. It’s the architectural role: shaping the night’s flow from zero.

Utopian did just that. His set unfolds like a slow exhale, dub-laced ambient that creeps, swells, and gradually transforms into chugging, low-slung techno hypnosis. It’s a patient climb: syncopated, restrained, precise. Not a single cheap move, just deep focus and floor logic, the kind that sets the table without stealing the meal. But make no mistake, this was a statement. A warm-up that didn’t just support the night, but elevated it.

An ambient journey into harps, moods, chords and beyond

Spiritual Armor (Divine Shield) is a comprehensive and intelligently designed protective field that surrounds you with a multi-layered energetic shield. It provides powerful and lasting protection against a wide spectrum of harmful influences. This field safeguards your energy, consciousness, and spiritual space while integrating a divine intelligence that discerns and filters what enters your energetic field.

Core Layers and Protections
1. Negative Energies and Toxic Emotions
 This field repels low-vibrational energies such as anger, fear, envy, grief, hatred, or anxiety—whether directed at you intentionally or absorbed from your environment. The shield works by transmuting these harmful frequencies before they reach your energy body.

2. Evil Eye Protection
 It neutralizes the effects of the evil eye, whether cast knowingly or unknowingly. This includes energetic envy or malice directed toward your health, success, or well-being. The shield disrupts these energetic imprints and stabilizes your field.

3. Metaphysical and Psychic Attack Defense
 This layer offers active defense against curses, hexes, psychic hooks, implants, energetic cords of control, remote viewing, and other forms of unwanted metaphysical interference. It forms a resilient energetic boundary to keep your aura sovereign.

4. Entity Interference Blocking
 The field prevents the attachment or influence of parasitic and malevolent entities. It severs energetic cords, clears subtle intrusions, and creates an environment that is energetically inhospitable to these beings.

5. Protection from Mental and Energetic Manipulation
 It guards against subliminal influence, mental programming, energetic persuasion, and NLP techniques used with malicious intent. It also filters out manipulative or controlling energies that attempt to bypass your conscious will.

6. Blocking Harmful Informational and Morphic Fields
 One specialized layer is attuned to identify and block morphic fields or informational energy tools that carry harmful, exploitative, or malicious intent. This includes fields that aim to hijack your energy, override your will, or manipulate your consciousness.

7. Divine Discernment Layer
 At the heart of this field is a divine intelligence that evaluates incoming energies with sacred wisdom. This divine layer does not operate on personal bias, but on higher truth. Therefore, what you perceive as harmful and what is deemed harmful by this layer may differ. It blocks only what is truly not in alignment with your highest good, regardless of how it appears on the surface.

How to Use
Recommended usage: 2 to 3 loops per day
Effects last for at least 24 hours, so it is advised to listen daily for continued protection
Ideal times include in the morning, before sleep, or before entering intense or crowded environments

Spiritual Armor (Divine Shield) is your energetic guardian—working silently and powerfully to keep your space clear, your mind sovereign, and your energy untouchable by outside harm.

From the frozen ruins of forgotten realms to the endless skies of alien worlds, OrchraX invites you into a saga where fantasy and science fiction collide. Inspired by the grandeur of Skyrim and the vastness of Halo, this album blends orchestral power with ambient mysticism, creating a soundtrack for a roleplay game that exists only in imagination.

Opening with “The First Legend”, a spoken-word prologue delivered with the weight of ancient prophecy, the journey unfolds across cinematic soundscapes: battles fought beneath shattered moons, ruins echoing with the voices of the past, and destinies written among the stars.

This is more than music — it is a tale told in sound, crafted for dreamers, gamers, and seekers of other worlds. Step beyond the stars, and let the legend begin.

Legends Beyond the Stars

U N R U S H is an experiment in sound, a crystalline vision of eternal pause. Through our record label, podcasts, interviews, and event series we focus on presenting a diverse array of alluring ambient music. With each guest contribution we search for a serene space within the mind that is free from the encumbering stresses of daily life. Our events will act as a platform for distinguished artists and take place in stunning cultural surroundings both in the city and in nature, taking a step away from the pounding hedonism of the club to showcase the other side of electronic music.
