Snow Storm – Steam-Boat off a Harbour’s Mouth by J. M. W. Turner’s (1842) immediately immerses the viewer in a tumultuous scene where nature and machine collide in a whirling storm of sea, wind, and snow. At first glance, the painting feels almost abstract a vortex of movement and light that seems to spin endlessly around a fragile vessel caught at the storm’s center. The steam-boat, barely distinguishable amid the swirling brushwork, becomes a symbol of human ambition and vulnerability, its mechanical strength rendered powerless against the immensity of the natural world. Turner’s mastery of texture and motion is on full display here: thick, gestural strokes of grey, white, and muted brown evoke the chaos of the storm while dissolving traditional boundaries between sea and sky. The viewer is pulled into the turbulence, sensing both awe and disorientation, as if standing within the tempest itself.

The painting feels less like a literal depiction and more like an experience an emotional and sensory translation of the sublime. Turner claimed to have witnessed such a storm firsthand, allegedly tying himself to a ship’s mast to study its violence, a story that, whether true or not, underscores the intensity of his vision. The work captures not just the external drama of the sea, but the psychological weight of isolation and surrender before forces beyond control. The faint glow that emerges from the center suggests a struggle toward survival or perhaps enlightenment within chaos a hallmark of Turner’s late period, when his art transcended realism to approach the expressive freedom of modern abstraction. Seen today, Snow Storm – Steam-Boat off a Harbour’s Mouth stands as both a technical marvel and a profound meditation on the limits of human power, the majesty of nature, and the beauty that can be found in the midst of turmoil.

For this episode of MuséeCast, Habikat shares a set that reflects his steady curiosity and deep connection to sound. A sonic explorer since 1999 and part of the Afterhour Sounds collective, Habikat approaches mixing with patience and focus never in a rush, yet always attentive. The set drifts through downtempo, deep, and subtle psychedelic shades, staying mostly under 116 BPM. It unfolds with quiet intention, where each transition feels natural and every texture has room to breathe. What emerges is a grounded journey immersive, measured, and true to his way of listening a space where rhythm becomes observation and sound moves without hurry.

Creatures Corner | FRIDAY 05.09.2025 | 10PM

For me, something really special: my first live set in years and then of all times at 10 o clock on the Creatures Corner stage at the @mystic-creatures-berlin Festival. This year I got to play twice, once at the @klangtherapie-festival and now here. Both times the floor was packed with people full of good vibes. I still haven’t fully processed it.

This project has cost me many hundreds of hours of work. Now I’m taking a little break. If I notice that you enjoyed what I created, maybe I’ll do it again next year. So feel free to share it.
Much love ❤️

Denn baumelts Schnurrhaar im Sumpfkrug plant die Katz' meist nur Unfug.

Danke für die Einladung - es war mir ein Fest <3

Eine Sage aus dem Raucher*innenzimmer sagt:

Geh'n wa Rewe'n oder Denns'n?
Ach. Aldi alten Geschichten.
Aber auf ein paar Lidl können wir schon hin.
Und Netto lohnt es sich dann schon.
Und wenn nich, dann geh'n wa Penny!

Danke an die Alte Hölle und an den Late Night Frittierclub. Und eine Ode an die Krokodile im Sumpf gab es auch. 

Das war schön, und schöner mit euch.

Enjoy!

Mal wieder ein für meine Verhältnisse etwas schnelleres Set um für @saburaa ordentlich einzuheizen.
War ein Bombe Abend, danke dafür!!
Playtime 0:30-2:30

A deep 110 BPM electro journey under the “Last Moon 9” — a cosmic night where fears dissolve like blue clouds and the path to abundance finally opens.
Mystical textures, golden sparks, slow-burn grooves and a rising energy that feels like a spiritual reset.
This track is a symbol of completion, transformation and liberation before stepping into a new cycle.

Perfect for late-night sets, meditation in motion, or anyone needing a wave of deep, celestial power.

Happy Birthday Mira!! 😻

Here comes my set from Mira's 48 Katzen Tanzen auf'm Tisch. A huge thank you to Mira for being who she is, for inspiring my always and of course for inviting me to play mighty Säälchen on Sunday night. I could have not imagined a better moment to play the set I have poured all my soul, heart and creativity into. I feel so honoured to play among some of the greatest artists out there! 

Another huge thank you and my deepest respect goes out to all the incredible producers who are dedicating their time and energy into making these gems that I have selected for this set. 

A big thank you goes also to everyone being there and experiencing the magic that happened during these 3 hours full and bathing me after in all your love and joy ☺️ Since the recording unfortunately did not work out, I dared a re-record and beamed myself back into Säälchen and went through my memories one more time. 

All the love 🚀
