"The approach behind this mix is different to what I normally do, it starts from another point of view. 

I decided to dedicate this mix to one of my inspirations and true musical pioneers Steve Roach. The whole mix is based around his work and tries to balance it with work of other artists and friend producers who are subconsciously following the same musical path as he did. It contains a full range of atmospheric shape shifting rhythms and well blended, storytelling fractals that emerge into a variation of seasons and styles. I'm trying to earmark what Roach did within his musical work."

There’s something profoundly healing in the music of French duo Javier Salazar, whose output embodies the true medicinal power of sound. 

This mix takes our mind’s eye into the sunshine - grass between our toes, spliff in hand - as we get intimate with the scoops, wrapped in a warm, enveloping blanket of sound.

We hope this beautiful contribution brings you an hour of peace, just as it has for us many times over the past month. Thanks, Leo & Simon <3

Since 2012, Caldera (@caldera-caldera) has crafted a distinct fusion of techno and bass, known for its immersive sound design.

His rhythmic experimentation offers a fresh perspective on dance music, exploring a wide range of BPMs along the way.

His music has been released on respected labels like Nummer Music, Kimochi Sound, Pressure Dome, and Well Street Records.

About the mix:
“I wanted to start the mix slightly faster and with more energy than I usually do. I already had the Aleksi Perälä song in my head as an intro for a set so I went for it and built the mix from there. While doing the tracklisting the mix slowly dissolved into the emotional ambient ending which happened very naturally and felt right.”

this week on the 909 mix series forest on stasys brings a wormhole of locked-in grooves, percussive-driven rhythms & spacey soundscapes that exist around the sweet spot of 135pm ~ filled with that sweaty sensual late night energy. the buenos aires-based dj & producer shares, “i recently closed the night at the danza nativa showcase at under club and was quite inspired by the connection that was created with the crowd. so, you'll find minimalist techno at 135 bpm with energetic, deep, and abstract passages.”

that 90s-esque minimalist techno sound is something that forest on stasys has become renowned for within his own productions on labels such as space lab, hyphen records, crescent london, harmony records, lowless, accent records and worst records to name a few. alongside this, forest on stasys runs and curates the label aura sonora which recently released a record by dyl & tammo hesselink and he’s also part of the danza nativa crew which he has been co-running alongside alderaan and kyntral since 2018.

We’re excited to welcome back @zvrra, a gifted Haitian artist based in Illinois. After releasing their ‘Mica’ with us earlier this year, they are showing how to spin the decks properly for our 31st Herbarium episode. Their mix features hypnotising textures and patterns fully loaded with energy and drive. Zvrra chose White Pines (Pinus Strobus) as their inspiration. 
They say: “White Pines are my selection for the Herbarium mix series. I chose this plant, because of it's unique ability to grow in all seasons. Also I often spent many winter nights in Illinois and Wisconsin surrounded by these beautiful plants.”

Herbarium No 031 - Zvrra - Pinus Strobus

Hagva began in 2022 as a shared experiment between CP1 and Not Mass, artists closely tied to Milan’s Evolvere collective and Stagno Records. What started as a dialogue has grown into a practice of dismantling rhythm and building it back stronger, threading techno through post-club ruptures, industrial grit, and deep ambient undertones. From Evolvere’s underground nights in Milan to RSO Berlin, Module CPH, Buka Milano, Tempovìa, and Zurich’s D.A.S., their sets have carried the same uncompromising edge: a refusal to settle into comfort, constantly pulling dancers into new terrain.

The mix we present today is a three-hour live recording from their set at D.A.S. in Zürich earlier this year, capturing Hagva in full flight. There’s no easing in, it’s a straight leap onto a fast-moving train, powered by relentless percussion and groove, with sudden swerves that snap the floor awake. Heavy, urgent, and unpredictable yet always precise, it’s a reminder that energy doesn’t need excess to be overwhelming. For those hearing them for the first time, it’s the perfect entry point; for those who already know, it’s another layer of proof. With their debut EP arriving September 15 on Stagno Records, this set stands as a clear statement of intent.
