HAROLD @ SEASON1 - HALCYON FUTURE

As 2023 approaches, we are asking artists to reflect on the year just gone through a series of mixes built from new music they’ve discovered or enjoyed in 2022. 

For Thessa Torsing, the only way is up – upsammy, that is, her most recognised alias and one under which she shares playful productions that touch on IDM and ambient, and takes to the controls for rousing DJ sets. Torsing traversed the globe this year, hop-skipping between Barcelona and Budapest, or Australia and London, with plenty more shows closer to home, in her native Amsterdam, as she continued to raise her glowing profile.

Her set for our end-of-year series starts on an amorphous and vaguely aqueous note, as squelchy synths and moon-lit atmospherics evoke a sense of submersion into a vast body of water. “This mix is a combination of murky low-end, tickling melodies and free-spirited micropercussions by some of my favourite producers of this year,” Torsing says on the recording, which features tracks by DBR, Andriy Kostyukov, CS + Kreme and more.

Copenhagen-based musician Jakob Folke Ivarsson collected a wide shade range of molten electronic sounds & muffled patterns.

  Slow resplendence to the darkened crevice - instrumental loops, celestial backcloth, shifting structures & tavernous melodies fuse together as fissures amidst the lurks, unrelenting in the acoustical strata.
