Felix Joy - 24 June 2025

Ценители глубокой интеллектуальной электроники знают имя Heavenchord @nirgoona. С 2015 года артист выпустил более сотни релизов на авторитетных импринтах. Его творчество основано на экспериментах и синтезе звука, отражая наследие классического даб-техно.

Последние годы Артур с семьей живёт недалеко от Армавира, в удалении от мегаполисов и шумных тусовок. Этот трек он написал вместе с женой — Infinity Dots. Мы давно вдохновлены музыкой ребят и для нас большая честь представить эту красоту миру. 

На заглавном треке сингла слушателя ждёт умиротворяющая гармония и загадочная глубина. Это погружение к корням – к идеям любви, доброты и мира, которые вдохновляют авторов на творчество, где проводником является образ Ихтиандра. Второй трек сингла "Просто морской даб" с более созерцательным вайбом развивает заглавную тему растворяющей, гипнотической атмосферы. Следуйте за звуком и открывайте новую глубину. 

Арт: Вадим Слуф www.instagram.com/sloofcrueyeah/
Мастеринг: Евгений Щукин www.instagram.com/fmsao9000/

*** 

Connoisseurs of deep intellectual electronics are familiar with Heavenchord. Since 2015, the artist has released more than a hundred releases on reputable imprints. His work is based on experiments and sound synthesis, reflecting the legacy of classic dub techno.

In recent years, Arthur and his family have lived near Armavir, away from megacities and noisy parties. He wrote this track together with his wife — Infinity Dots. We have long been inspired by the guys' music and it is a great honor for us to present this beauty to the world.

On the title track of the single, the listener will find a peaceful harmony and mysterious depth. This is an immersion in the roots - to the ideas of love, kindness and peace that inspire the authors to create, and the guide here is the image of Ichthyander (literary character from the novel by Аlexander Belyaev "Amphibian man"). The second track of the single with a more contemplative vibe develops the main theme of a dissolving, hypnotic atmosphere. Follow the sound and discover new depths.

Eclecticist:  Reggae Special - From Mento to Dancehall - 2 July 2025

Felix Joy - 15 July 2025

My live set from an epic Saturday night at my home camp, CataLün Village, before the fireworks show show cut it short at Element 11 this year.  This set was a wild ride through some of my higher energy tunes I've been spinning lately.  I might have had a little too much fun playing this one! I'll be the first to admit this sets a bit on the messy chaotic side...  Much like E11 this year!  So-so mixing aside, this set has ended up meaning a lot to me and ultimately it felt right to tack on the ending I hoped for and get this thing posted! 

The crew stuck it out through some truly heinous weather and set backs only to rally so hard this night. I'm lucky to be apart of this radical community and I hope this set brings you back to that night as much as it did for me.  I will never forget this one as my days are long!

Enjoy!

Through The Years - Japanese Hip Hop w/ Caro: 30th July '25

this weekend is the 20th anniversary of one of the most beautiful gatherings that i have the privilege of being a part of. 

DUNYA
a community family gathering on a gorgeous property, curated and nurtured with love and care for decades now. so many friendships started and deepened, so many reunions, so many moments shared. one of the most receptive and vibey dance floors i have ever played for. 

in honour of this auspicious occasion i am sharing an extended version of my set from last year. i was inspired to re-record it after hearing the recording that was made in the room, i spliced in the first couple of minutes of it to give you a little taste of the energy in there. 

so much love to Anita & Nils for creating this precious space for us to gather and celebrate our love for life and for each other. 

love to the artists, the dancers, and to you dear listener

VIVA DUNYA!

HIJOS DE LA NOCHE

So when I set out to make this mix, I had the simple vision of a dancefloor friendly feel good blend of uplifting soulful music. But when I work on a mix I like to let the music lead me, in a way, and I gradually found myself in a darker spookier place.  I considered back tracking and making different decisions, but decided no, darkness can't just be avoided, the more important journey is how we build up out of it. I'm really glad I left this as is, and I think I've accidentally painted a pretty good portrait of how I feel about the world right now.  I'm an optimist at heart, I truly believe that good will triumph as long as people can envision a better place and work towards it.  Share ideas, solve dilemmas, talk about solutions and everything's gonna be alright.

Hydration Mix Series ep 36
Working on this during a time of such general unrest was more challenging than usual. With politics and the climate strike and the opioid crisis and so much wrong in the world, it felt false trying to force these lovely, lush sounds out.  After a few days of frustration, I stopped picturing a beautiful blue sky sunny day, and settled into a more overcast, warm rain melancholy view. I also slowed it down, and then started feeling the light beams creeping into this dark cave.  
Have a coffee. Look to the horizon. Drift away.

Hydration Mix Series No. 36 - The Willisist

Drifting between melancholy moments, bouts of longing, waves of bliss, and periods of perseverance, I think I’ve captured what happiness feels like as an adult. Not pure joy, but a balance between satisfaction and letting go. There’s light at the end of the tunnel, but even the best moments also pass. The cycle continues.

Please listen with intent. I put a lot of myself into these Hydration Mixes. This is not just a random collection of good tunes, but a meticulously crafted set with chapters and feelings. Put your life into these moments, I’m sure we can all relate.

These are the sparse lyrics I hear, some are hard to discern but here’s my interpretation:

I just wanna see you proud, wanna do something after this
Catch me I’m falling down
Nothing you say, sounds....
Do you control the dream? Or does the dream control you?
Im on fire. I’m over you. I can’t stay here.
Baby, here. I’m going to go.
Hold you close.
Some of your sweet time babe. Let’s rewind.
Do you wanna be mine? I don’t know.
Cuz we fight in the daylight, over night we relight.
Drifting back. Drifting. Drifting.
(Mumble mumble) that’s really incredible.
Oh baby, I was gonna be just fine. Even maybe.....
From creation.
The sounds, and the chord progression. It’s the law of music. It’s an attitude. You have to do what you feel. Then you can make other people feel it.
All I need.
Is this real? Does it matter?
These sounds....my heart....please forgive me.

The Willisist
Deep, rolling Drum and Bass. Heavy thick 85. Blissful liquid and half time. Expanding into 130 breakbeats, tech house, 2-step, low fi, dubstep etc. If it's good it's good. 
Close your eyes and listen closely, there's layers. 

Since 2007 The Willisist has been pushing the underground in Vancouver. With well over 300 shows hosted, at just about every venue the city had to offer, showcasing international headliners as well as the best new and veteran locals.  Still known for the now legendary False-o-Ween series, some massive NYE events at W2 and The Hive Climbing gym, and long running local nights with Nautilus and the Back Stage Lounge, he's also been a regular at Basscoast, and played Shambs and Wicked Woods. 

With a genuine love for Drum and Bass he has opened or hosted for the likes of Calibre, D-Bridge, Andy C, Dub FX, Dub Phizix, Blu Mar Ten, LSB, Spectrasoul, Breakage, High Contrast, Pendulum, Von D, Netsky and dozens more.

Tune in, let's roll.
