This episode of Eterna series features a mix from Copenhagen based djGEM. The American-Scottish artist represents herself in the Nordic underground through DJ performances and curations for her radio residencies and event series Liminal Spaces via Copenhagen's Drift Radio and Hexercise via Malmö’s Retreat Radio, as well as her memorable, trance-inducing yet genre-fluid journeys for dancefloors such as Essence Cph and Endurance. Her current sensibility-in-focus is for deep, immersive listening sessions that move through ambient enchantments, experimental layering, and nostalgic archival pieces, with performances in chillout rooms and stages such as Kune Festival and Distortion Ø. As a selector, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist with a background in yoga, meditation, and sound therapy, she weaves multiple disciplines and forms of expression into intentional journeys for both body and mind. “For this mix, I wanted to share something sensual. A meditation on the gentle and the powerful - ambient, psychedelic, and dubby atmospheres nestled together with some of my most beloved sonic antiques. Hope you drift somewhere along the way and enjoy the ride. <3” @djgem

This episode of Eterna series features a mix from Lychee. Resident at Yerevan’s Stardust and Diaries collectives, Lychee shapes her sound with a love for the golden age of trance and a commitment to honest, curious expression. Her music is built on rolling, progressive foundation and swampy, humid textures which stretch across psy territories. Emerging from Yerevan’s close-knit scene, her approach has quietly found resonance beyond it, connecting with dancers and selectors across different corners of Europe. “A softer and more spacious selection, moving through ambient, dub and hypnotic sounds. I wanted to explore a more laid-back feel for this edition of Eterna. Hope you find something you like in there.” @lychee_lychee

This episode of Eterna series features a mix from Martyn Päsch. Päsch's identity lies in the balance of paradoxes: robust percussion driven by authoritative kick drums that organically coexist with synthesizer melodies of captivating harmonic fragility. His music is distinguished by the strategic use of the breakbeat; sudden appearances and disappearances that do more than just disrupt the rhythm—they define his sonic signature. It is an invitation to introspection through movement, positioning him as a fundamental piece in the global evolution of deep sounds. Since founding his imprint, KVLTÖ RECORDS, in 2018, he has traced an editorial line dedicated to exploring hypnotic textures and rhythmic landscapes that challenge the genre's linearity. “During the process of crafting this set, there was an incredible synergy in the studio; the elements, textures, and sound design of the tracks clicked perfectly right from the start. This synchronicity allowed me to design a highly fluid progression, where the aesthetic of my project and Stardust’s forward-thinking curation merged into a single journey. The result is a deeply cohesive session that truly reflects that creative synergy and shared energy.” @martynpaschmusic @kvlto-records

Despite the messy life, music is the tool to remind oneself to slow down, to enjoy, dive into peace and create something special. I imagine that anyone who decides to listen to it will get cozy, dim the lights and shut down all the worries for 1 hour.” @ana-marjanidze

Deeply tied to oldschool trance, free tekno and acid in all its forms, he explores a whole range of varied influences which act out of a flawless curiosity. Between hybrid forms and primitive rhythms, no doubt he’ll drive you in his grooves. “I’d say this mix is a blend of everything I love across the trance spectrum, moving between deep progressive structures, acid lines flirting with Goa and tribal grooves touching techno territory. It brings together tracks from the early 2000s era with more recent productions, and that dialogue between old and new / nostalgia and forward motion, is something I always love to explore!” @pascalmental

Influenced by sensory atmospheres and organic sound design, his sets move between light and shadow, seeking depth, continuity, and connection on the dancefloor. “I approached this mix as a gradual progression through contrasting sonic states, moving between hypnotic techno, mental trance, ambient passages and more deconstructed rhythms. With this selection, I wanted to shape a space held in tension, where pulses, suspended atmospheres and shifting dynamics converge into a gentle sense of inner drift.” @teworina
