Benedikt Frey says Yes.

Consisting of the core creative duo of John Balance (formerly of Psychic TV) and Peter Christopherson (formerly of Throbbing Gristle), Coil emerged into the post-industrial era with a hunger for experimentation that was uncompromising and unparalleled. It led to a heaving discography covering ambient, neo folk, goth rock, and any strain of experimental music you could imagine. Their often otherworldly and beautiful creations explored fitting themes of the occult, dreams, drugs & sexuality. 

This In Focus is a two hour trip through the experimental universe of Coil.

In Focus Coil

Sonic storytelling from Glasgow's ambient power duo Somewhere Press. The mix is, according to Caapi and Lizzie Urquhart, a musing on the Divine Feminine, which got me thinking about something James Hillman, archon of all things archetypal, said about the study of Beauty. Apparently (so says James) the ancient root of the word "Aesthetics" comes close to meaning "I breathe in" and the mixes, releases and vibe of Somewhere Press has certainly breathed something beautiful into Glasgow's musical landscape. We hope you enjoy this latest Forecast addition and urge you to keep an eye out for the upcoming "The Blue Hour" compilation coming out soon via Boomkat. We can assure you that you wont be disappointed.

Lyrics:

(Whispers in the dark… we are the same…)

In the hush of hidden rooms
We breathe in shadows, bloom in gloom
Your eyes a mirror I can’t escape
Tangled hearts in a secret shape

You speak in codes only I can hear
A language soaked in want and fear
The world would drown us, call it sin
But you’re the fire beneath my skin

This love was never meant to be
But it burns inside the veins of me
Twisted fate, forbidden flame
We wear the scars but feel no shame
In the dark, we are the same
Two broken halves without a name

A bond too deep for light to claim
No guilt, no god, no rightful blame
The night forgives what day denies
In stolen hours, no more lies

Maybe we're wrong but still we feel
This pain is real, this wound won’t heal
Your breath, my pulse — we intertwine
Crossing every holy line

This love was never meant to be
But it burns inside the veins of me
Twisted fate, forbidden flame
We wear the scars but feel no shame
In the dark, we are the same
Two broken halves without a name

We bleed in sync
One heartbeat split in two
No one sees — but I see you
They’d never understand
But still we stand
Beyond their truth, beyond command

This love was never meant to be
Still it sets the sinner free
Twisted fate, forbidden flame
We chose the dark, and not the blame
In the night, we say our names
And vanish into silent veins

(We are the same… in silent veins…)

new depression altcoin season live recording

Twice does not lead to a tradition - but it feels like playing for @swimsupply 🏊 . Whenever the community organisation focusing on lysergic sounds calls, I am more than happy to meet beloved Ellen, Mark Lando and Tesdorpf and to play for their fine events.

So here is a 2h recording from my gig at Wurm in Basel / Switzerland a few months ago where I met and played with fantastic @sellyourmania and @sprtsmanship and its a rare past forward 🦦💃.

Fam Mixtape with @hipushit.
On the collage-like nature of the mix and a childhood-born sense of beauty — read his commentary:

“In my mixes, I often try to create a collage of dissimilar, contrasting, sometimes even opposing tracks. One condition of the collage approach is that the result should feel like a whole — all the elements blending into unexpected harmony.

A mix on a physical medium feels special to me. So, beyond the collage approach, I tried to reflect a few more bits of magic that matter to me in the art of DJing — the balance between the dance of the body and the dance of the mind, a sense of timelessness, and my own idea of beauty.

By the way, the artwork — a wildflower with thorns and spikes — is one of those things that shaped my sense of beauty as a kid. I used to believe they were planted by aliens.”

Surreal reflections from Lyon’s Jonnnah

"Sharing these mixes allows me to step out of introspection and connect with people who are far away, sharing a moment together through sound."
