Had the pleasure of playing a set at the cosy @praeriefestival this weekend - resulting in an hour of uplifting disco and house music sweetness. Thanks for everybody who danced along and for the opportunity to play (and party) on this very sweet event.

Anne Karmané - Opening @ AMUSE Festival 2025

The cosmic shaman that is Octave Marbot re-emerges from the celestial veils, bringing forth a sacred ritual of 106-123 BPM, where sonic magic weaves the fabric of reality itself. His hypnotic basslines, ethereal synths, rhythmic incantations, and eldritch voodoo spells conjure a portal to otherworldly realms, dissolving the ego into the swirling mists of the psychedelic abyss. 

The DJ from Kaiserslautern is your trip-sitter from the electronic underground, diving through audio galaxies since 1999 to bring the sound of the universe to your dancefloor.

Surrender to his mystic symphony, and upon emerging, be transformed, renewed, enlightened, reborn, carrying the whispers of the cosmos within your soul.

Counterterraism Guest Mix 377: Octave Marbot

This set was recorded on August 1, 2025 in Veggli, Norway.

Inspired by the landscape that surrounded us that weekend, I wanted to experiment with different textures and layers, creating a soundscape that reflects both the space and the feeling of being fully immersed in it.

I also played around with some new influences and sounds I’ve been drawn to lately, weaving them together to capture the spirit of this unique moment and place.

This set is a reflection of that experience :) moving between softness and intensity, stillness and motion — like walking through shifting light and shadow in the wild.

🖤

Thanks for the recording

Maltitz at Disco Bizarre (Berlin) 05. October 2025

Welcome to the Luniverse! We are back with the "LUNACY PICKS" series, where @cyranotauruscortex and @Freudenthal curate their artist picks, setting the vibe for the notorious House Of Lunacy events at Berlin's iconic Renate.

Event: https://de.ra.co/events/2254399

lunatic, be prepared, she will say: ich bin der liebling der götter,
while you ask me whether we are already about to decay.
in this manic world, we still desire to call the ball.
in our collective grave, we still invite them to this panic rave.
this will make them go haywire–
they will even end up calling it tripwire–
while reflecting on past deeds during the eternal afterglow.
you said: i do it for you, send me those silver sparks, 
so this g/rave hosts another cyberdance.
were we lost in translation? 
calling both our pet iguana and our diamond ring yuwana?
asking ourselves with our backhead-stored french: mais qui es-tu?
wait, we are still decades full of decadance, we are still strong, we are still vampires.
listen, she said: no matter whether it’s heiss oder kalt outside,
we remain dancers in the dark,
no matter whether we are only fed on bitters and bread,
we keep on going in those dark rooms in the basements, in our sanguine lust.
this tricks them into their wildest minddance,
while she says: es wird so schön wie es niemals war.
yes, war is war, love is love, we dance forever. 
we bet our souls on black, we bet all or nothing.
we will defend our queen, no one will steal from her, 
and, for her, we are der räuber und der prinz
every single one of us can at least say: she is the one i love,
and this is how it’s always gonna be.
when it’s getting cold outside but sweat still drops like tears in the rain,
they should not tell her that they will not come, 
she will notice it and tell them: 
ach, immer noch die alte leier, mann!?
