Maya Jane Coles - Essential Mix

Maya comes back wit new essential mix and comes back with a bang.

Nicolas Jaar Live @ Boiler Room

Very slow but very good set from legendary Boiler Room. Absolutely love the track around 38 min, looked like the crowd liked it too. 

Catz'n'Dogz - Essential Mix

Historic, first ever Polish essential mix. A true head-nodder this.

Kenton Slash Demon - Daemon

Sarah McLachlan - The First Noel (Kintar & Maindave Remix)

Nicolas Jaar - Live @ Sonar Lab Barcelona

Another great live performance coming from Nico. Just listen to the incredible groove in the first track after intro.... Hypnotizing.



Genre: deep house, electronic

Gus Gus - Arabian Horse (Live)

William Fitzsimmons - Goodmorning (Pink Ganter Remix)

It's not often you come across really intellingent, elaborated remix, which at the same time is very groovy and catches your ears immediately. William Fitzsimmons' heavenly voice was featured on origamitracks before with couple of equally good remixes, but that's just not enough.

Holy Other - Yr Love

Berlin-via-Manchester shadow builder Holy Other released this single back in 2010 as a debut for Transparent label. It has Holy's specific  hollowed-out darkness to it but is much less dark and blurry than his previous stuff. "Yr Love" is not as heavy or abstrat as "Held" album, but still carries a patient darkness, just where you need it. Great track for afterparty.

Nicolas Jaar - Essential Mix

I think by now Nicolas Jaar needs no introduction. Here is his essential mix for BBC Radio 1, without Pete Thong's voice or skits. Very, very laid back thing, moments with steady house beat are rather occasional, in return you get many instruments spiced up with a twisted beats, compelling vocals and mesmerizing experiments.

I think it's the most laid-back essential mix I have ever heard and probably ever will.

Beautiful.



Genre: chillout, acousting, deep house

Active Child - I'm In Your Church At Night

Catz'n'Dogz - Petcast 29

Suprisingly chilled mix from Catz'n'Dogz.



Genre: chillout, deep house

Counting Crows - Colorblind (Oliver Schories Edit)

As heard in Origami 015 podcast, hypnotizing edit for hypnotizing song.

Eco - Mind Altar

I genuinly can't believe it took me such a long time to feature this track here. I've been deeply in love with this ever since the first listen and it just keeps getting better and better with every play. Eco from the U.S. made an incredible job of combining something that on the first glance can't be mixed together to create smooth deliciousness.

The Crystal Ark - The City Never Sleeps

Origami 000

Live recording from a recent gig I did, not particularly easy for the ears, but hopefully you'll enjoy. After a grouptogether old friends decided to play like in the old days so this is what happened while my hour.

William Fitzsimmons - I Don't Feel It Anymore

It's all really rather aboutthe remixes of the Fitzsimmons' incredibly emotional song "I don't feel it anymore". Two of them, one offical, one edit, both great. To be honest I prefer the remixes to the real deal, but, you know what they say - there's no accounting for taste.

M83 - Midnight City (Trentemøller Remix)

I suppose everyone in the world knows the original for this track but Trentemøller's version still hides in the shadow, so it's time to bring it back to the light. It is very different from the original, some might even say too different, but for me it is all what art of remix should be about.



And just to be balanced - my beloved original "Midnight City". Absolutely beautiful!

Friendly Fires - Paris (Aeroplane Remix)

Let me show you Paris you've never known before.
