01/ The Mix:
Amelia Holt’s mix is built on restraint and a steady descent as opposed to a strike, not through force, but a gentle driving course.
02/ The Object:
The sculpture released with this mix is inspired by all things Amelia Holt; feminine, seductive, alluring, and indulgent. Hard work need not be cruel when guided by pleasure, even the softest drop eventually hollows stone.
03/ The Artist:
Amelia Holt is one of New York’s most distinctive and forward-thinking selectors. Known for her instinctive command of rhythm, she crafts sets that fuse percussive intensity with experimental edge — moving fluidly through broken beats, leftfield techno, sharp electro, and the occasional dose of delusional krautrock. Her approach feels both studied and spontaneous, transforming dancefloors into deeply physical, culture-bending experiences.
01/ The Mix:
Priori’s mix begins and ends with a gentle embrace, prowling seductively with dub-driven grooves before retreating into the ether like dusk yielding to dawn. Consistently in motion, but never in haste. Don’t miss the lion’s roar.
02/ The Jewelry:
The jewelry is inspired by Priori’s fascination with labyrinths. Priori feels like mazes and labyrinths were omnipresent in youth literature and movies but hey rarely encounter them in culture these days.
03/ The Artist:
Under the Priori moniker, Québecois musician Francis Latreille has established himself as a crucial voice in underground techno. Priori builds a hyper-detailed world steeped in science fiction and fantasy, residing somewhere between the biological and the synthetic, the actual and the possible.
01/ The Mix: Lena Willikens’s mix for Forge is nothing short of a magical trip through an auditory kaleidoscope, so, turn on, tune in, and drop out.
02/ The Jewelry: The earrings were inspired by Lena Willilken’s fascination and love for all kinds of mushrooms. Lena believes that mushrooms rule the world – silently and without wars. In many ways, mushrooms can help humans grow mentally and find a more respectful way to treat each other and the environment.
03/ The Artist: Lena Willikens earned the enviable sobriquet ‘A DJ’s DJ’ by virtue of her endless versatility and word of mouth adoration. Playing no two sets the same, Lena’s fathomless variation is the tip of an iceberg-like record collection amassed over decades and constantly renewed via daily practice of listening, joining the dots, and nurturing an ever-growing worldview of dancefloor possibility. – Conor Thomas (@futura_artists )
01/ The Mix: The name of the mix is “Mermaid Leap” and it is inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson’s poem “The Mermaid” (1893); the mermaid appears towards the end of the session, so tune in and enjoy. :)
02/ The Jewelry: The pendant, Serve, was is inspired by Call Super’s infatuation with the form and purpose of kettles/teapots. He finds their purpose deeply satisfying and universal in a way that makes him feel calm, soft, and at one with the world.
03/ The Artist: Call Super is the primary moniker of Joseph Richmond Seaton, a DJ and musician from London who has carved out his own place in the landscape of electronic music. Defined by a meticulous approach to the composition, production, art direction and presentation of his work, every release encapsulates Joseph’s idiosyncratic vision. It is a colourful world that gives life to the shadows and throws a mist over the boundaries that have become so commonplace in electronic music.
