Vinyl mix for Nühn Records Radio, hypnotic deep and dub techno from start to end.
“This is a journey between two worlds, the sound and the mind, the bassist element in all the set from Ohrwert declares pure groove volume to lose the mind, mental Techno is not another sound. When the fields crash into distorted pads and every track emerges with force after the equalizing entrance is more than dark music, it’s a mental man controlling a story on the most huge imagination voyage. Arjen knows the meaning of the Hypnotic sound in modern Techno music. This is another Nühn Records Radio Set. Try to connect to this set from the first minute and you will get stormed.”

Out now on all digital platforms and released by the Spanish Nühn Records: “Oneiron”. A hypnotic two-tracker, where “Morpheus” is a bit rougher around the edges than “Phobetor”, but both tracks retain their deep technoid foundation.
“Let the water take everything. In a realm where shadows reign supreme and whispers of the river haunt our dreams, resilience is an intangible yet profound concept. In the depths of darkness, it’s often found in the water, a symbol of life’s relentless flow, Swirling, consuming, with an undertow. Yet, within it, we glean a lesson of resilience and license as an ever-present theme. In the village of the mind, where fears reside, resilience stands as a beacon and a guide. Through the tempest of doubt, it holds sway and Leads us through the darkest days. When the waters rise and all seems lost, resilience emerges a steadfast frost, a force unyielding against the tide, And the ebb and flow of life’s relentless ride. So let the water take everything it may; Resilience will endure, come what may; in its abstract embrace, we find our might, Guiding us through the darkest night.”

This album started out as a spiritual successor of “Tracing Rays” (Wil-Ru Records, 2013), an album that was constructed using meticulous sound design and processing. A similar approach was used for “Aˈkʷaː.ti.kus”, but limited to one piece of equipment: a Nord Wave 2 performance synthesizer, processed with my digital audio workstation of choice, Renoise.
The track titles are in line with the aquatic album title, each of them representing a different zone in the ocean, in order of depth.
As the chords gently ripple through each track, the rhythms shift between various forms, deviating more often than not from traditional technoid drum patterns.
Ohrwert presents “Recordings From A Dimly Lit Studio” by R¥S. An alter ego once thought of to use for tracks that felt different from my other bodies of work, but rarely used to release any music. The artist name is a play on my first name, phonetically spelled (r+yen = Arjen), and the initial of my last name.
Much thought went into the decision wether I should release it through Ohrwert or not. It is not dubby, and not particularly deep, but it does share some common grounds and sheds light on music I have been working on in parallel to dub techno, which would probably not see the light of day otherwise.
Recently I collaborated with Martin Stürtzer, Martin Nonstatic, and Luftrum on a soundset for U-He Diva. Really loved working on the sound design and very pleased how the complete soundset turned out.
“Dive into the hypnotic world of Dub Techno with Dub Diva, a collection of 137 expertly designed synth presets, brought to life through the collaborative synergy of Dub Techno artists Martin Nonstatic, Ohrwert and Martin Stürtzer, and sound designer Luftrum. United by their passion, this dream team has joined forces to craft an outstanding compilation of synth presets for U-He Diva.”
