@tammohesselink has always been enthralled by rhythm. He explores the unknown areas in between the UK's broken beats and hypnotic trans-Atlantic techno. Hailing from a small town, he did things himself to start with and soon turned heads with his respected The Invariants label. After that began to get wider attention for its spacious and supple sounds, he went on to become a regular on Nous'klaer Audio and has just minted another new label, Real View Memory. The first EP, Borrowed Wheels, touches on percussive techno abstractions, halftime drum & bass and deep, atmospheric bass. 

All of that comes out in this week's mix. It is a 90-minute showcase of Tammo's ability to lay down body-popping rhythms. Sometimes they are silky and seductive and worm their way deep into your psyche, at others that are heavy, upfront and smack you over the head. The skillful balance between the moments of airy suspense and dense, unrelenting drums is what makes this selection so compelling.

Tobunga - 1998 - 16X (25th year jubilee)

The Nostro Hood System summons forth it’s second full-length album from Berlin-based Eduardo Pesole, titled ‘Botanical Garden’. Taking influence from a beloved flower species, Eduardo takes the name ‘Hypocyrta Glabra’. Bringing a wealth of knowledge from an instrumental background, morphing further into sound engineering and composition for both short film, fashion and interactive media & video games, the sparse influences and practices result in a oblique approach to electronic music that takes form as fluid, organismal growths of xeno origin to that of earth.

We see the vision for the album germinate: ‘After 2 years of wandering through videogame sound design, abstract ambient live performances and improvisations, and the Berlin club scene I decided to synthesize my journey into music with this record, the botanical garden in berlin has been my peaceful oasis in which I could escape from the mess of the city and with the years passing this became a ritual, tripping at the botanical garden to reconnect myself with nature and escape the city. In a way composing this album has been the same thing, escaping from the boredom of the daily routine after being impacted by a lay off from the gaming industry. The composition process became a playful and peaceful ritual to escape from bad places of my mind and reconnect to my true self, finally I had time to nourish to my true essence.’

Our artist realizes a world that wholly occupies the NHS galaxy: ‘Each year, the inhabitants of planet BLIN journey to a place forbidden to all others: The botanical garden. this is the sole location on the planet where life still springs forth from seeds, water, sunlight and the lunar cycle. Yet, for this to occur, those who still posses knowledge of the ancient botanical techniques (a small group passing down these generational skills) must initiate a ritual wherein the old world and the new are able to coexist. The soil, no longer soil becomes fertile, the water, no longer water, becomes nourishment. it is the most primordial ritual in existence. None are permitted to observe the act of generation, yet all who have survived the new world shall, for the remainder of the year, partake of its fruits.’

Across the entire collection, an effervescent spirit of youth and life springs out, bubbling through the feverish palette of sounds, primarily propagated via granular synthesis and resampling techniques. The overarching intention takes form as a ‘digital forest’, channelling the chaos of nature through computerised, alien-like aesthetics and structures that are constantly evolving and re-forming, like sped up evolution occurring before your ears.

Hypocyrta Glabra - A Pët

Nr. 49 mit einem krämerlichen Geburtstagsspecial. Der Vortänzer des ganzen Schmierentheaters heisst Xen Chron und kommt aus den USA. Danach, unter starken Ausfluss nachdem der Einfluss beendet wurde: Ulf Kramer. Wie lang sein Geburtstagsständer öhm Ständchen wird weiß niemand so genau...länger als deiner alle mal....🙈 Auf deutsch es wird Gottschalk mäßig schamlos überzogen.

Jogeir Liljedahl - Out Of Silence

This song was made by <a href="http://www.lynnemusic.com/jogeir-thewanderer.html">Jogeir Liljedahl</a>, not me. It was originally a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOD_(file_format)">MOD file</a>, which meant, as a composer, you had to make do with a maximum of 4 sample-based instruments playing at any one time, full left/right panning whether you liked it or not, and some very limited effects. I've taken the liberty of adding a little reverb to mask some of the 8-bit harshness but, apart from that, it's unmodified.

I think it's a masterpiece.
