Emerging from a thick spiraling haze, is the debut album from Mystic AM – a new project from Rod Modell and label founder Ario Farahani. Conceived as an immersive fictional soundtrack piece, the release tells the story of a traveller, some centuries ago, and the rather intense metaphysical experience he unexpectedly stumbles into whilst taking shelter on a hot desert night at Zein-o-Din Caravanserai, near Yazd in Persia. Dusk envelopes the vast barren landscape as the protagonist enters the ribat, treasures of woven silks, ornaments and exotic spices glint under the flickering oil lamps, swirls of perfumed vapour dance mesmerisingly in the darkness. As the music unfolds the events of the passing day quickly melt away, and the unsuspecting traveller is plunged into an otherworldly dimension.

Utilizing an extensive collection of old Iranian records as source material, the album is an intoxicating mise-en-scéne of whispering melodies, undulating rhythms, and atmospheric sound details. Ario began the process, extracting and editing samples from old records acquired during frequent trips to Iran over recent years – during which the mood and flavour of the project began to crystallize. Once handed over to Rod for further processing and arrangement, the album took its final shape – an endless tapestry of sights, sounds, and memories that fade mysteriously into the night’s reverie. Textures seep into one another in washes of colour, and hallmarks of classical Persian sounds filter through – the slow stroll of the daf, scintillating runs of santoor, and solitary lines drifting out of the kamancheh. Bridging the realms of the real and the imaginary, the collaboration signals the first contribution to Mystic AM’s enigmatic concept.

Cardamom & Laudanum 

Premiere: Mystic AM - Spirit Lamp [Astral Industries]

Krivina, the name of an old ruin and paint balling ground that in June 2019, played home to an incredible rave and the first ever Threads* pop-up in Bulgaria! 

Our memoirs starts with the live performance of Sofia based Lesnik duo.

Kalin Baichev (SuB) and Kaloyan Gavrilov (KANZ) have more than a decade of experience in electronic music. Formations such as porno bpm and 80s Clash are maybe the most iconic projects they've been involved in. In 2017, they revealed their new alter ego - Lesnik, which is a mix of FM synthesis, heavy kicks and acid bass lines. In 2018 Lesnik becomes part of the launching label Sofia Records, founded by the living legend - KiNK. Тhis trip begins with the other local heroes and Sofia's artists - KEi, Raredub and Qaseo aka Recidivist. Kalin and Kaloyan have performed gigs with Antigone, Shifted, Dario Zenker, Helena Hauff. Their TECHNO path is yet to begin and believe, their sound will blow you away from planet Earth!

Campfire Stories 100 (Through Friedrichshain) by @Chryslsm

~ About The Story ~

I sit by a dancing choir,
of flames that burn in towers.
there are cabins and woodlands,
and pastel and faded flowers.

there is a strange maniac,
that sits on a bucket by the trees.
he sings songs between puffs of smokes,
about horror stories, fates and dreams.

I listen to the chilling crackle,
that lights my eyes in mini-fires.
and hum to the beat of the ukulele,
on the grass path with tracks of tires.

whistle of the ancient winds,
that tell stories of bears and poisonous pears.
the campfire singes down; cool and crisp,
and the maniac disappears.
