Terra - a musical audio play

Berlin-based DJ Vera presents a new ambient project entitled ‘Terra’. Consisting of three individual chapters, Terra is a musical audio play that tells the story of a night in the rainforest. Paying homage to dear planet Earth, mother nature’s unmistakeable beauty and endless peculiarities come rising to the fore. 

A sprawling journey into the great unknown, each mix takes the listener progressively through a myriad of wild and liminal spaces. Spanning all corners of ambient, avant garde, and experimental electronics, to ethno, Jazz, and beyond, Terra lavishes everything from moments of quiet introspection, spacey drones, chugging beats, hypnotic rhythms and select climactic peaks. 

Carefully woven together as a multi-dimensional tapestry of sound, scenes transition gradually between environments, moods, and states. As the night progresses, forms shift endlessly under moonlit sky, and subtle shades of every kind make their stroke before the sun breaks free once again. 

An intoxicating trip through dense jungle paths, untouched rivers and deep mountain valleys, we dive headfirst into Vera’s kaleidoscopic world of unusual creatures and bewitching natural phenomena. Uncovering the weird, forgotten, and mysterious, Terra invites the listener to co-create the rainforest as an imagined space and to discover the storyteller within. 

Terra started as an earnest musical exploration, but through collaboration and further development Vera hopes to unlock its greater potential as a communal arts platform and ongoing multidisciplinary project. With this audio play as the starting point, who knows what the next chapters will bring...

This mix was recorded live at Hoppetosse Berlin on Sunday, at the unofficial "New Kids On Acid" after hours, where I spontaneously and totally unexpectedly accepted to take over the party. I didn't have my records with me, as I wasn't booked for the party, so I ended up playing for 8 hours from my USB key I had in my wallet. We finished at 1pm on Monday. Despite some sloppy mixes I decided to upload the whole recording, only the last 3 h are missing- unfortunately the recorder stopped earlier then the party :)

Vera @ Robert Johnson 28.01.11

Vera Heindel is a gifted selector with flawless technique. Playing records in the way she does takes skill, yet the casual observer might not realise just how much. Technical proficiency is vital but only part of the picture. Her style requires a deep connection with her records, one that lets her join the dots throughout hours of music to create a fluid, mesmerising journey for the dance floor. With Heindel on the decks, you might hear shuffling minimal mixed into acid house, or electro into dub techno, bridged by subtle, speedy transitions that never sound rushed or disjointed. You may not realise a new (and very different-sounding) track is playing until long after the old one has been mixed out. It's an ego-free method that puts music above showmanship.
