"Exploration trip; after crossing the wormhole, I head towards the epicenter of the radio waves I captured. Futuristic melodies change to earthy and organic ones. An immense satellite orbits that wonderful blue sphere. I look at it holistically, in the background that tribal sound sucks me inside. Textures, different landscapes but forming a whole. I can’t intervene anymore, they would discover me and it’s not time yet. With melancholy jazz I have to come back, crying but smiling at the same time."

Slowfoam (@slowfoam) is the sound and DJ moniker of Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist Madelyn Byrd. Their work stems from a curiosity about subconscious realms, the slippery nature of perception, post~capitalist musings, and joy in the mundane. She's currently working on an installation in collaboration with AI, curating a monthly radio show called 'our tomorrow' on Internet Public Radio, and working *slowly* on a couple of albums. Madelyn is also a founding member of the dream~tank and art collective, MOLD, which will be presenting Magdalena Jadwiga Härtelova's 'How Do You Talk Across Distance When All You Have is a Flying Goose' at Cross Attic in Prague on October 30th.

HOCast #83 - Slowfoam

Let me invite you to a brand new travel with Coral Club! Throughout our program we will visit ancient monasteries, distant villages and untouched nature sites. We will sit by the fire near the ocean watching outlying stars, sleep lulled by crashing waves, fall under tropical rain, and while hiding from it in the ruins of the temple, we will listen to stories that ancient stones will tell us. We will visit the tribes living in harmony with nature and learn from them. We will return refreshed, harmonized and more calm. So grab your tent and sleeping bag, we're taking off just now!

Technically, it's a compilation from my older unreleased works. Some tracks I was planning to finalize and include in some LP, but I am writing too much new material and do not have enough time to work with old ones properly. But I still love these sounds, so I decided to combine it all together and fill with field recordings, to create immersive journey for you. Enjoy!

Khotin has been a key figure in the developing Electronic music scene emerging from Canada - for over ten years he has been producing and releasing music.

His sound has evolved exponentially, weaving between sounds and styles with cohesive ease of which others might only dream of. His records have found a home somewhere between the heady 90's ambient and trip hop era, deep house and has drawn upon abstract influences from balearic roots, trance and a whirlwind of other other cultural guises.

All of this makes his music remarkably interesting and hard to pin down.

His forthcoming album "Release Spirit" is forthcoming on acclaimed label Ghostly International. It features a collection of ambient soundscapes, tape recordings and off piste samples as Khotin draws inspiration from far reaching influences such as World of Warcraft, train journeys through Europe and Japan, family vacations and beyond.

We asked Khotin to record a mix which reflects a similar nature of the new album - the result is a delicate assortment of textures which lend themselves to a brooding optimism for the year ahead. At least we hope..

Khotin: The Ransom Note Mix

‘For home use only’ is an anti-club social, a chance to get to know someone/something. A series of transmissions purely dedicated to exploring the other side.

Big breath in. Local deej Danimoto provides us with a rare chance of relaxation, a soundtrack to hibernation, a one way ticket to divination. Breath out. 

His words >>> 

By dj and producer Danimoto aka Daniel George, who has released music via Addition by Subtraction, Aedi Records and self-released the piece Analog Meditations. He works in the realms of House, Techno & Ambient. 

About my productions: I try to make the intention around my productions natural, almost sub-conscious - intention when producing music can get you into some tricky spots, where you aren’t really feeling anything but rather just forcing it. I was chatting to a friend the other day and he was showing me some of his music, it was so pure, authentic, i could tell it was a labour of love and i thought that’s when you make the best stuff, when you pour it all out, it doesn’t have to be hard, but it does have to be real.

About the mix: Dance floor direct stuff has an immediacy to it, when you are crafting something to be played at home, the reasoning changes, as if you almost want to be immersed in its temporality. For me these records recall a lot of the initial moments of connecting with something which validates an experience. 

Headspace when i made the mix: I’m not a fantastic sleeper, i’ve always had issues with that. I wouldn’t say i’m terrible, i mean i’ve survived but it does agitate me. If i can’t sleep, i’ll usually head to my studio to make or mix music. It’s always weird & somnambulistic but i feel at peace there and i’m never trying to make too much noise. In this case, i felt recreating some dream-state, slipping between moods and riding the very soft ebbs and flows of energy i get from mild insomnia.

Sounds carry intelligence.
