log_2023_12_21 (A Guide For Extended Dreaming (Mix))
Hello kindred spirits! Let’s celebrate the longest night of the year with this special mix of electroacoustic drones and soundscapes. Inspired by Pauline Oliveros’ practice of Deep Listening, you are invited to perform the following instructions:
Find a quiet and comfortable place to lie down.
Close your eyes, let go of your thoughts, and focus on the tiny sounds that tickle your ears. Connect with them, stay with them, and explore the boundaries of perception.
This mix contains mostly unreleased recordings from my personal archive and some moments from the tape “Music For Theater”, which I released on @kontrapunktsound .
All tracks are written, recorded and produced by Adel Akram Alameddine
log_2023_12_13 // Berlin 2013-2023
I moved to Berlin in 2013 and recently had a moment of 10 years reminiscence while going through the digital archives on my hard drive. Dancefloors, BPM and diversity have changed over the years – the latter mostly for the better! My haircut though – still the same! Music and working in clubs has always been a way for me to connect with amazing people and experiences. In the last few years my ears have been pretty busy with different responsibilities, but slowly I am enjoying music again like I did before the pandemic.
For those who are interested, I have uploaded a few DJ sets and mixes from a time before I put my records in boxes. I look forward to unpacking and rediscovering them in the coming months…
Expect some hidden gems, some nostalgic memories and a bit of Robert Ashley in there.
The playlist contains recordings from my glorious DJ days, a love mix, a demo I submitted to Herrensauna and recordings from Nachtdigital Festival.
Most mixes come with track lists, for those who don’t: drop me a line if you have any questions or are curious about certain track IDs!
