Floating Machine's "Peace of Mind" (2022) takes a while to get going (~2mins), but becomes increasingly hypnotic, taking you to "the zone"...
John Heckle - Inhuman Nature (Vercetti Technicolor's Undead Nature Remix, 2014)
Road trip memories! Love that track (once it gets going)! 🥰
Spring is here and this is on #PermaRepeat today:
Martinou - An Inclination (2023)
Lovely modern mix of oldskool breakbeats (ala MOY), big analog bassline, some trancy synths (in a good, not in a clichéd way) and a dash of melancholia. Beautiful result & energy!
Zeta Reticula — The planetoid (2023)
The brand new Caterina Barbieri album "Ecstatic Computation" is... splendid! Amazing synths & compositions!

Don't judge a track by its first minute: Strangely addictive and yearning harmonies, layers & vibes once it all gets (slowly) going... Metropolitan Soul Museum -- Smooth Mission Control (2023)
The sound design & harmonies of the synths playing the main melodies in Bauri's Kirmumxyl (2017) make my heart melt and are the perfect counter balance to the minimal, glitchy percussion... So soft, gentle, fragile and melancholic all the same time (esp. the last 2-3 mins) 🫠
This dubby mood just feels very right for this first evening of spring...
Martin Goodwin - Nekoya (2017)
It's #303Day today! Let's celebrate with one of the classics: Hardfloor's chill Dadamnphreaknoizphunk aka Dubdope (1995) - chef's kiss! 🤌
DJ Koze's classic remix of Herbert's It's Only (2012) is one of those tracks & tunes you just cannot ever unhear or forget after 1st listening. Its minimalism, simplicity, quirky sound design, chill factor and vocals all goes straight the heart... On frequent repeat for already a decade here!
This unofficial video featuring amazing footage from the 1980 #MountStHelens explosion (and its aftermath) is just so perfect for Blamstrain's eerie and eerily addictive track Turn Back (2003).
Having hiked on the mountain myself a few times a few years ago, this still gives me absolute goosebumps each time (and missing my #PNW adventures...)

#Music4Coding Totally feeling the brooding energy & mood of Dianthe's new track Portal:

Not everyone manages to create a plausible mix including Hildegard Von Bingen, Future Sound of London, Deep Forest, Apollo 440, Sol Seppy, Justin Bieber (800% time stretched) and more, but hats off to those who can (i.e. Planet Uterus/Traumprinz)! Not just plausible, but a totally unexpected beauty and quite a journey on this freezing morning...
#Music4Coding The new #Plant43 album Silver Streams is full of lush analog, cool & crisp multilayered synthesis, constantly evolving arps, atmos, and being largely beatless, also somewhat of a (little) departure from his usual signature electro sound, placing the synth work front & center... Recommend!
#Music4Coding Full on positive #SuperSaw vibes in About Leaving, track 3 from the hypnotic new Planet Uterus album: Life (2023)

#Music4Coding Donato Dozzy's stunning, largely beatless, yet varied 1h mix for Labyrinth Japan (2022) is just exuding the perfect vibes for this calm snowy Saturday AM... ❤️
Time for the first #Music4Coding of 2023...
Having enjoyed heavy rotation on many a roadtrip and whilst working on my laptop outside in nature, City Of Ys by A Sacred Geometry (2015) is one of those tracks I just can never get enough of and have so many great memories associated with... Slow build-up, perfect blend of introspection, meditation, hope & melancholia...
#Music4Coding Even after almost 10 years since its release, I've yet to find a better electronic dub album than Blamstrain's deeply personal, non-cliched, minimalist and spontaneously improvised & recorded "Sunday Dub" - each track named after its time in the day it was recorded (my faves: 1am & 4am) - embrace the (incredible!) bass, chill & enjoy!

#Music4Coding Underjack's "Entering Transistor Bay" album (2016) is the perfect meditative and transportive accompaniment to this seemingly timeless transitionary season & period: Sizzling with static and a looming, brooding dark energy, never quite fully surfacing or overpowering the warmth of this journey 🤌
