IO Podcast Series Episode 060 mixed by Caldera.
@caldera-caldera

-


For this 60th episode, we invited the talented producer Caldera who enlights us with a very beautiful and deep mix.
If you don't know him yet; since 2012, Caldera has been creating a unique and personal blend of Techno and Bass music with a love for detail and a dedicated sounddesign that immerses listeners into imaginary worlds.
His experiments with drums and rhythms result in grooves that explore a deeper side of dance music while leaving bpm and genre restrictions behind.
Caldera's creations have found a home on labels such as Berlin's Nummer Music, Chicago's Kimochi Sound and Bristol's Pressure Dome while his Loop LF moniker has previously been a mainstay on London based Well Steet Records.
Right now we're eagerly waiting for his upcoming release on @melifera_records.

When we asked the artist for a few words about the mix he told us, that the inspiration for it stemmed from a preference for slower, more meditative transitions and a deliberate, gradual increase in intensity.
The mix aims to evoke a sense of transitioning from the somber winter into the hopeful beginnings of spring, reflecting a personal journey from adversity towards renewal and positivity.

@turtle-gate is hard to catch. No socials, only a Soundcloud profile and a good old phone number. But a strong reputation as an eclectic DJ for his shows on @radiody10 and as a member of the renowned @ozcollective, a group famous for their razor sharp taste in modern psychedelic electronic music. 

After exchanging a few messages soundcloud, we got on a call. I immediately understood his strong passion for his craft and was excited to get him on board.

And so the artist delivers a very special mix. More than a mix, an insane journey through dark, smoky 90s psychedelic atmospheres, leaving us confused and unsure of whether we are travelling through old school sci-fi alien movies, a silent hill remake, or an acid-fueled psychosis. Listen to this show and you will be constantly shuffled around nostalgic voices, weird industrial noises, long running delays and other reality-bending effects. Truly an other worldly experience !

Having an artist feel inspired by our project to get out of his comfort zone and explore the weirder spectrum of music is really what we strive for and what brings us joy. We wish you all to feel the same joy !

Tacking the Sand**

*Tacking the Sand* is a high-energy, psychedelic dance album built for endless nights on the floor. Inspired by the image of a sailboat racing so close to the limit that its keel touches the sand, the record captures the adrenaline rush of risk, the euphoria of speed, and the hypnotic power of music that never lets go.

With **driving beats, spiraling synths, and mind-bending layers of sound**, each track pushes higher and harder, like waves that refuse to break. The album is pure momentum: vibrant, trippy, and unstoppable — a soundtrack for those who love to dance at the edge of chaos.

*Tacking the Sand* is not just a record. It’s a ride beyond the limit.


Tacking the Sand**

*Tacking the Sand* es un álbum de dance psicodélico y explosivo, creado para noches infinitas en la pista. Inspirado en la imagen de un velero en regata que vira tan al límite que su quilla toca la arena, el disco transmite la **adrenalina del riesgo, la euforia de la velocidad y la fuerza hipnótica de una música que no suelta nunca**.

Con **beats intensos, sintetizadores en espiral y capas sonoras alucinantes**, cada track sube más alto y más fuerte, como olas que nunca se detienen. El álbum es puro movimiento: vibrante, lisérgico e imparable — una banda sonora para quienes bailan al filo del caos.

*Tacking the Sand* no es solo un disco. Es un viaje más allá del límite.

꿈 Kkum 02 - Ntogn Live at vurt. (recorded_2019.02.18)

2019년 4월 1일, 
두 번째 꿈 Kkum 에피소드는 스웨덴의 테크노/앰비언트 아티스트이자, Hypnus 레이블의 설립자인 Ntogn의 3시간 20분 세트와 함께 합니다. 이 세트는 지난 2019년 2월 Ntogn의 아시아 투어 중 Ambient Bar x vurt.에서 플레이하여 녹음된 6시간 앰비언트 세트에서 발췌되었습니다.

Ntogn (Hypnus, Tome / Sweden)

40,000여 년 동안 인간은 신성한 의식을 치러왔으며 이는 삶을 지배하는 힘, 그리고 움직임과의 교감을 위한 것이었다. 성스러운 불길로부터 뿜어져 나오는 연기 속. 환각적 성찬에 취한 우리는 재빠른 박자에 보폭을 맞추어 춤추고 환희한다. 차원이 맞닿은 경계의 지하 아래로, 또 우주의 머나먼 외곽 너머로 우리는 여행을 떠난다. Ntogn은 이러한 성스러운 불꽃과 환영적 연기구름을 구현해낸다. 청각적 마법을 부리기 위하여, 그는 소용돌이로부터 솟아 나온 주문, 즉 어둡고 사이키델릭한 테크노 의식을 통해 오망성의 다섯 가지 원소를 녹여낸다. 동시에 그는 신화적, 신비학적 내러티브를 창조해낸다.

For 40'000 years, man has performed sacred rituals in order to commune with the ruling forces of life and motion. In pace with rapid beats and under the influence of entheogenic sacraments, we have been dancing and raving in the smoke of sacred fires in order to travel inwards to the undergrounds of bordering dimensions and beyond to the distant fringe of the universe. Ntogn wants to embody these holy flames and visionary clouds of smoke. To act as a sonic magician, not only fusing the five elements of the pentagram with spells evoked in swirling, dark and psychedelic techno rituals, but also to create a mythological and occult narrative.

Body. Mind. Spirit.
