@__a__c__t__r__e__s__s__ has carved out a singular space in electronic music since the mid-2000s, blending abstraction with emotional depth across a deeply textured sonic palette. Known for his fractured rhythms, spectral melodies, and submerged atmospheres, his work resists easy categorization—oscillating between club-rooted structures and avant-garde experimentation. Ahead of his Durations 2025 set, tonight, 11.6, we selected four essential cuts. Catch him in the Sound Room at @publicrecordsnyc — tix available via the link in bio.

Saturday, 11.8, the final club night of Durations 2025 invites you to stay through sunrise. @margaret.dygas channels deep, dubby rhythms under the @publicrecordsnyc skylight until 7 a.m. Joining the night-to-morning affair: @playvlada_ brings hypnotic basslines and brooding acid blends to the Sound Room at @publicrecordsnyc . @tornadowallace joins with ‘90s euphoria and percussive minimalism, while @sybil_dj brings deep, emotional rave trips through techno and breaks. @kammakamma_ & @masalo.music deliver radiant energy and crate-digging gems, and in the UPSTAIRS room, Detroit’s @scott_zacharias ties it all together with a psychedelic, freeform touch.

Co-manager of Shelter Press, @felicia_atkinson is a French electro-acoustic composer, visual artist, and writer whose work blends voice, field recordings, MIDI instrumentation, and essayistic language in layered compositions, assigning narrative and voice to landscapes, images, books, memories, and ideas. New York-based singer and pianist Elian Glass [@ladyliana ] eschews traditional performance, capturing the voice as object, singing long-form text with effortless enticement and transportive abilities. Her debut record, E, is out now on Shelter Press. The pair joins Durations 2025, SAT 11.8, for a @shelter_press showcase. Grab tix via the link in bio.

Friday, 11.7, Durations club programming brings an unmissable debut of @marron.ec to @publicrecordsnyc with his signature Afro Deep style. @Dorisgburgbg performs his repertoire of psychedelic hypnotism live. Clarisa_kimskii’s propulsive and atmospheric techno meets them in the middle. Kyoto-born, Berlin-based @alex__kassian brings a lush, cinematic, and uplifting sound, rooted in spontaneity and crafted for transcendental dancefloor moments. The Level Party’s Yibing [@yowaitup ] opens with an extended set. Tranquilamente Radio, her show on The Lot Radio, traverses a wavy mix of ambient dance, balearic house, and breezy downtempo. @smilegoth is an LA-based DJ, curator, and event promoter. A member of indie band untitled (halo), an NTS resident, and an affiliate of Stones Throw, her leftfield taste ties together post-punk, shoegaze, and hip-hop with a gritty, SoCal vibe. Durations is a week-long festival across @publicrecordsnyc , @pioneerworks + @whitneymuseum , spanning live performances, club shows, and discussion-based programs. Tickets + festival passes on sale at the link in bio.

Amsterdam-based label @music_from_memory brings their continued collaboration with seminal Spanish ambient musician @suso_saiz to The Sound Room. Sáiz has been a central figure in Spain’s experimental scene since the late 1970s, known for his richly textured compositions built from acoustic instruments; field recordings; and slow, evolving processes. Inspired by her life in Portland, @patriciawolf_music ’s work sonically unites natural and modern worlds, integrating ecological sources into her minimalist electronic compositions. Using melody and repetition, she lures listeners to her hypnotic inner space, conjuring vivid textures and atmospheres imbued with emotion. FRI 11.7, the pair joins Durations 2025 at @publicrecordsnyc live in the Sound Room. Grab tix via the link in bio.
