Words and curation by Kyra Khaldi.
Fred Nasen – Gravity (Visitor)
Sick EP with three tech-house club tracks from 2006. They sound incredibly full and are very driving.
The Journey – Kyra Khaldi & Mixolydian (Foresight Records)
An EP built around one track and the iconic vocal from “Celeda – The Underground”, featuring four different mixes. I made this together with Mixolydian, and it was released on my own label. It almost never leaves my sets. What I really like about it is that there are different versions suited for every type of set.
Biran Kage – Dubz on 12 (Michigander)
Dub house/techno records that fit perfectly in both house and techno sets. Very few elements, yet such a full and atmospheric sound. Extremely driving, and they sound incredible in the club..
Luna Ludmila – Sitges (KANN)
An EP by Luna Ludmilla, one of our sickest ditch producers in my opinion. This one s a recent one with (tribal) tech house tracks, with deep baselines, spacious sounddesign, dubby chords and some acid.
Opal Sunn – Liquid – Phases I – III
Opal Sunn is a collaboration between Alex Kassian and Hiroaki Oba. After their first release, Elastic, Liquid became their second. A deeply atmospheric 3-track EP ranging from club tracks to ambient, all tied together by the same dreamy elements. It’s amazing how they manage to create such a strong atmosphere in the club tracks while still making them absolute dancefloor killers.
Uruk – Traffic Jam (Remix) (Zoharum)
An atmospheric, glitchy broken beat track with dreamy vocals.
Marshall Jefferson vs. Noosa Heads – Mushrooms (Mazi’s Audio Soul Revamp) (Airtight)
A sexy and deep house track from 2001 with a cute storytelling vocal.
Get Fucked – Unearthed Stash (Sushitech Records)
A 11-track album, packed with tech house rollers, percussive elements, vocal phrases, and atmospheric, hypnotic synths.
Big mono – Sex Operator Dub (Energy Spin)
A super playful track with a bouncy bassline and a really strong acid line that does exactly what an acid line should do, in my opinion. There’s a lot of tension created by taking the drums in and out, and every time they come back in, it hits so perfectly. Without overcomplicating things, it keeps delivering every single time. The track touches on different styles, which also makes it a great bridge in sets when moving into more unexpected territory.
Tommy Chikara – Let The Light In Album (self released)
A beautiful independent 13-track album by Tommy Chikara. Very diverse; ambient, downtempo, breaks, house, dub, DnB, and techno, but the atmosphere throughout stays incredibly cohesive.
Molen – Future is Gone (Spectral Bounce)
Sick EP by Molen on Spectral Bounce. Trippy club tracks with amazing sound design, plus a beautiful downtempo track, that I LOVE SO MUCH.
Kaap – Godspeed (ÆX)
A really beautiful spacious dub track by Kaap. Lots of layered pads that complement each other and create a huge, wide sound. Such a talented producer.
Layers – Various Artists LAY001 (Layers)
An VA compilation by Flinta artists, with nine tracks, including amazing producers as Aldonna, Katia Curie, Organza and more. All proceeds go to GLADT Berlin.
V/A LOCH INN at De School (Loch inn)
A compilation by Loch Inn marking the end of their series at De School. A super diverse compilation with all kinds of genres mixed together, yet every track feels deeply narrative and distinctive.
Placid Angles – A Detroit Summer (Kalahari Oyster Cult)
Such a beautiful EP, filled with dreamy vocal choirs and so much emotion. These tracks can make you feel everything, from crying on the dance floor to feeling grateful while sitting in a train. I love it when music can open up different emotions and take you through a range of feelings. The level of detail is incredible, and the sound design is stunning.
Thredd – It’s Lovely, Come On In (Scenic Route)
Super beautiful Indie-pop album with dreamy vocals, rock drums and guitars.
Mayo – REBIRTH (Intercept)
Amazing album by Mayo, where she explores many genres. Cinematic atmosphere, rock elements, breaks, FX and her own vocals all wrapped in melancholic experimental synth pop tracks.
