To come ‘Full Circle’ is to travel the path and arrive back at the point you think you left from.

Full Circle, also known as Alexis Le-Tan (Wonders Ovze World) and Joakim (Tigersushi, Crowdspacer), a long term project with close friends Le-Tan and Joakim music project and “concept band born from loving ears that want to re-process our electronic past.”

They’ve delivered some amazing edits of obscure Goa tracks and remixed the likes of Die Orangen, 10Lec6, and Tapan and released on Good Morning Tapes and Vladimir Ivkovic’s Offen.

“To complete a journey is to learn and to slow down and re-imagine is to enrich – Full Circle hears the hedonistic sound of the 90’s in a light that reflects a different space for our current time and beyond. Always bridging the gap between the past and present: they are and continue to go Full Circle.”
 

You got that? Good… then let’s get our ears round their first recorded mix action and dig into their minds a bit more.

London-based Ario is a practitioner of transportive and inquisitive music? both as a DJ and curator of his label, Astral Industries. Pushing sounds that are as much drone-inspired as they are psychedelic and nature-driven, his remit falls within the deeper shades of electronic music. 2019 has proven to be a busy year so far, with shows in London, Berlin, Lithuania, Morocco and Tbilisi to be followed by an Astral Industries x Mysteries of the Deep Far East tour, which includes a night in Seoul (at vurt) on October 26th. 2019.

런던을 중심으로 활동하는 Ario 는 그의 레이블인 Astral Industries 의 DJ 이자 큐레이터이다. 드론에서 영향받은 소리만큼이나 환각적이고 자연에 이끌리는 소리를 밀어붙이며, 그는 전자음악의 더 깊은 면에 집중한다. 그는 2019년에 런던, 베를린, 리투아니아, 모로코, 트빌리시 등의 공연에 이어 오는 10월 26일 서울 vurt 를 포함한 Astral Industries x Mysteries of the Deep 의 아시아 투어로 바쁜 한해를 보낼 예정이다.

Oslated Mix Episode 163 - Ario

Golden Ratio Frequencies are pleased to announce our 8th release, MIND GARDEN by POOL OF LIGHT. 

Pool of Light is the psychedelic drone project by Siberian born, China based musician, Anton Bogdanov, focusing on subconsciousness, tranquility states and a search for inner awareness.

Utilising an array of instrumentation such as guitars, synthesisers and loops, Bogdanov weaves a tapestry of cosmic folk drone, influenced as much by ambient post rock as by Gagaku music. 

Mind Garden, Bogdanov’s thirteenth release to date, and first for us here at Golden Ratio Frequencies, continues his path of reflective explorations with two side long excursions, perfectly conveying the experience of passing thoughts in meditation. 

“When meditating, one is exposed to thoughts, often chaotic and random in their appearance, but through practice one is able to let them pass, anchored by focus, mantra, or in the case of Mind Garden, sound, finding stillness and calm within the flow. This practice is often likened to maintaining a garden, a garden of the mind, where creativity and awareness can bloom."

With Mind Garden, Pool of Light takes the listener to serene tranquillity, perfectly reflected by the artwork’s photos of Zen Gardens taken by the artist in various locations in China, and the 45 mins of beautifully unfolding mind music within, that calls for stillness and centring. 

Physical copies are realised on professionally dubbed C45 cassette, with on body print, double sided full colour two page inlay, and acetate golden spiral. 


Pre- order begins August 12th, fully releases and ships August 26th.
