Ørjan never ceases to amaze me. I thought his previous guest mix, Rift Zones, was a true classic and now he does it again.

With Hollow Cloud, disguising under his dj alias kompressorkanonen, he manages to create such an intense, timeless and dynamic musical journey that I feel like a parrot because I think I’m repeating myself. Didn’t I say all this the last time?

I’m short of adjectives as well – do I sound too corny if I put it this way? “Let the music do the talking”? Oh well, enjoy!

In his own words:”More than a year after “Rift Zones” I decided to record a new mix that covers a somewhat similar territory. Once again, not particularly genre-specific, but I feel that there’s still a fairly common aesthetic going on here, even though you have a few electro, techno and even slightly IDM-ish tracks. A useful mantra might be “It’s all music innit!!”

Some of these tracks are recent discoveries for me (for instance, Z-Formation was a chance purchase at a record fair in Oslo three months ago) whereas others have been with me for a long time, such as Ismistik (one of the best things ever to come out of Norway) and Wamdue Kids.

I also took the opportunity to sneak in Virgo (lifted off the compilation LP on Radical – and that record is one of the best things to come out of anywhere, any time) and Luke Slater’s debut release. Enjoy the music!”
