Badawan (Tsunami) is a multidimensional being of many names and forms, also known as Jolie Roger and Looping Louie.
Badawan grew up in the jungle and drum and bass scene, playing gigs as Jolie Roger for Tsunami and WCC. Helping to establish the infamouse Lost In Nature festival. Meanwhile his musical focuse transformed and is now meandering between psychedelic influenced midtempo, santeria - sattelschlepperstep, galloping dancefloor soundscapes and dark progressiv sonic adventures.

This is my set, I played at the awesome @opposite-perception NzNz party night alongside @verve7 and @cosmic_analytica who played a deep, dark rolling techno set together, topped of by the the fantastic @herbatechno and Lee (who I can't find on SoundCloud somehow :-))
I had to re-record the set, coz unfortunately the recording of the night didn't work out! So the mix has one extra track in it, which I didn't play at the party coz I only had a one-hour slot. 
So, here we go, enjoy the deep driving, progressiv sonicsoundscape I'v woven to please your hearing senses :-)
Sincerely, your beat magician

Finaly I found some time and muse to dive back into my beloved slow dancing sonic realms. Deep baselines and quirky melodies for daydreaming about a naked radical self expression, on a deserted tropical beach. Let us all helicopter for a harmonious future human family. 
If you like my mixes, like, share, comment and tell your friends :-) And keep swinging those butcheeks! 
Peace

Zu hören gibt's mein Opening-Set von der UnderDive am 11.04.2025 im Club Zimmermanns.

Es ging diesmal ein bisschen flotter zur Sache – wobei das natürlich, wie immer, relativ ist 😄
Ich hatte auf jeden Fall riesigen Spaß und hoffe, der Dancefloor hat es genauso gefühlt.

Vielen Dank an die UnderDive-Crew für die Einladung und diese wunderbare Nacht – und natürlich an alle Tänzer:innen vor der Booth! ❤️

Viel Spaß mit diesem absoluten Gem voller Drive und Groove den Schluchten der Katatonie!

FRUITCAST #88 I [äis] I two mango maniacs mixing la mota

although the sound quality isn’t quite perfect due to a glitch in the recording,
capturing this moment again just feels impossible…
(truth be told, i don't seem to have much luck with the recordings of my uptempo sets...)

so I’m sharing it as it is, in all its raw energy.

it was truly something special to express through this sound,
weaving the oriental influences of my roots into groovy, driving techno.

endless thanks to @omar-al-naeb for the invite,
and to the dancers and producers who gave this music its heartbeat ♡

the next 2.5 hours will be up very soon ;)

Aus dem Herzen Hessens begrüßen wir diesmal Timon, besser bekannt als The Juice. Dieser steht für positive Vibes, ansteckende Lebensfreude und eine musikalische Reise, die gerade erst beginnt.

Wer ihn kennt, weiß: Timon ist ein durch und durch positiver Mensch. Sein Lachen ist so ehrlich wie seine Musik – und beides wirkt lange nach. Mit seinem offenen Wesen und einer spürbaren Leidenschaft für Downtempo zieht er Menschen an, begeistert und verbindet.

In diesem Jahr darf er sich auf besondere Meilensteine freuen: Auf Festivals wie dem CoSy und dem Eulenfestival wird er seine ersten großen Gigs spielen – begleitet von einem Teil der Spulenigelbande, die natürlich mit am Start ist, um gemeinsam neue Kapitel aufzuschlagen.

Doch das ist erst der Anfang. Seine Sets sind nicht nur Sound, sondern Gefühl – eine Einladung, sich treiben zu lassen, zu tanzen, zu lächeln. Die musikalische Reise von Timon ist wie er selbst: ehrlich, lebendig und voller Vorfreude auf das, was kommt. Wir freuen uns aufjedenfall darauf, was da noch so kommen mag.

#131 ☆Igelkarussell ☆ The Juice 🧋

Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose (1885–1886) by John Singer Sargent is a captivating vision of twilight a poem in paint where innocence, light, and time converge. Set in the garden of Farnham House in Broadway, in England’s Cotswolds, Sargent began the work during the summer of 1885, not long after departing Paris in the wake of the “Madame X” controversy. The idea was sparked during a September boating trip on the Thames at Pangbourne, where he saw Chinese lanterns glowing among trees and lilies at dusk. The painting depicts two young girls Dolly to the left and Polly to the right lighting paper lanterns amid roses, carnations, and tall white lilies in bloom. Originally, Sargent had planned to use the dark-haired daughter of his friend Frederick Barnard as a model, but she was replaced by the Barnard sisters for their fair hair, which better suited the luminous palette. Painted en plein air with impressionistic spontaneity, Sargent worked each evening for just a few precious minutes during the fleeting “blue hour” to capture the delicate balance between lantern glow and fading daylight. As real flowers wilted with the advancing season, he replaced them with artificial ones to preserve the harmony of the composition. The canvas was originally rectangular but later trimmed by about two feet on the left to emphasize the central figures and bring it closer to a square format. When it was unveiled at the Royal Academy’s Summer Exhibition in 1887, it received both criticism for its “Frenchified” style and praise from admirers, including Sir Frederic Leighton, who encouraged its acquisition for the nation. It became the first of Sargent’s works to enter a British public collection, and today it resides in Tate Britain. The scene captures the quiet enchantment of evening the hush of a garden, the gleam of lanterns, the fragrance of blooms distilled into a single suspended breath where the ephemeral beauty of nature and the artistry of light merge into something timeless.

In this MuséeCast session, Jonas Studer, performing as Badawan, delivers a set that bends genres and redefines the dancefloor’s edge. Moving between deep, psychedelic textures, hypnotic midtempo grooves, and driving rhythmic progressions, he shapes a sound that feels both raw and deliberate. There’s a storyteller’s pulse to the way he shifts from shadowy, progressive passages into bright, kaleidoscopic moments each change carrying its own sense of momentum. With roots firmly planted in underground culture, his music carries an untamed energy, rich in detail and layered with atmospheric depth. This is Badawan at his most fluid and focused, blending instinct and precision into a performance that stays with you long after the last beat fades.

CoSy Cast #003 - Calaido LIVE @ eindingdermoeglichkeit

Here is the recording of the liveset I played at cosy festival last Sunday! I am so happy I decided to hit record on this occasion, which I rarely do with live sets, but I had the feeling, like this one could be special and it was! It was such a huge joy to close this stage for the festival with the cutest crowd ever. I just felt a calm and warm joy with everyone happily wobbling to the downtempo flow, like everyone is taking deep happy breaths. It was exactly that deeply heartfelt energy I am missing on dance floors these days so often. So I am mega happy to have captured it and am able to share this with you guys. Its some old tunes, some new tunes, I hope you like it never the less <3


Iorie Live In Concert @ Cosy Festival, July 2025

☀️ Habikat [ at ] Kompaz Festival [ Live-Special ] ☀️

A new member has arrived at the charming Afterhour and is treating us today with his deep and hypnotic downtempo sound of the very highest quality. Immerse yourself and enjoy a top-class warm-up from the Kompaz Festival.

<<>>

✔️ What is your musical background?

My first important contact with electronic music came with my dear friend Dennis (Ganji) who carried niche Downtempo genres into my Munich suburban bourgeoisie environment when I was a teenager.

However, the main influence for my DJ project were - believe it or not - intense sonic confrontations with Full-On Psytrance in 2022. Luckily, once I had my first controller Downtempo and Tech genres took over my library published by labels like down., Talpa Rec. and Crépite and produced/mixed by artists such as Riyoon, Frida Darko, Reyneke, Temple Tears, Antaares, Matildoutz, LENI and - of course - Ganji.

 

✔️ In your opinion, what makes a good afterhour?

Self-confident but mellow and conscious people. No phones, a deep gripping yet suave sound. Eye contact that gets replied with a smile, a caring question or a friendly chat.

 

✔️ How did you feel about the gig?

When Benja from Kompáz asked me to open the event, I did not know what to expect and started planning from creative scratch. Though not many people arrived this early at the Salon floor and  personally I was very troubled beforehand, the time behind the decks was my perfect start for a deeply touching and wholesome weekend.
