Chillout

Digital Nomads — Concert for Victory Beats

Digital Nomads is a psychedelic chillout electronic music project that was created out of the desire to collaborate with other musicians after experiencing the producer/musician community on the V/A compilation, ForeverShpongled, released in September 2021 on Chill Space.

The project is led by four unique individuals:

  • Ari Z Satlin (Zman8) is a music producer based in New York City, releasing electronic music mixed with live instrumentation, after being heavily influenced by the Ozric Tentacles and the UK techno scene from 1990 to 1995. Ari grew up in the West Greenwich Village NYC and in 1990, when he was 20 years old, he moved to the UK for 5 years just at the right time when the acid house electronica scene was ripe and blooming with free raves & sound systems & DJ’s setting up guerilla style in the fields of England.
  • Eduardo Arenas (V Lam Beat) began his electronic music journey back in 1998, a key piece of the evolution of the Mexican electronic music scene, sharing the stage along with artists like Total Eclipse, Koxbox, Infected Mushroom, Shakta, Medicine Drum, and many more. He is the legendary producer of Return to the Source Mexico Festival in the year 2000 and the Earthdance Festival in 2001. In 2016 he started his own music Label FrequenSeed Music.
  • Paul Hamilton (East Coast Electronics) started DJing when acid house hit the scene in '88 in the UK including stints at a pirate radio station. In the mid 90's ECE moved to the Spanish Mediterranean coast and DJing took a back seat to music production with those influences of original house along with funk, reggae and assorted eclectic styles ECE creates genre bending electronic sounds.
  • Vissudda (Dudley Burrell) is a drummer, composer, producer, and keyboardist who, along with Zman8, created the cult underground band Spangle Head 90-95.

The debut album by Digital Nomads, "Walkabout (The First Gathering)", is just the beginning. The four are now preparing to finally merge as one creative force, blending their musical and spiritual paths together with strength in unity and progress in community.

Digital Nomads invites you to join them on the dub side of the moon. 🌘

Zvøner — Tea Time DJ Sessions

Zvøner (Yura Kostyukevich) is a Ukrainian producer and DJ. Starting his musical journey as a bassist in grunge and funk bands in Odesa and Lviv Zvøner later moved to the dark side of electronic music, working on a combination of genres, sounds, and instruments. Because art knows no bounds, and Ukraine knows no defeat!

M&Ms — “THE A.I. ORACLE”

Music simply fascinates me, its like an internal organ that you can’t live without. My musical influences were many and diverse: Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Supertramp, The Pogues, Sonic Youth, Buthole Surfers, Nick Cave, Diamond Galas, Mozart, Chopin, Rachmaninov, The Swans, Dead Kennedys, Joy Division, The Doors and so on, but my very first favourite Album was Neil Diamond’s “John Livingstone Seagull” that forever gave me a deep connection with Soundtrack Music. I would spend days recording my favourite tracks to cassetes and being very serious about the exact perfect order to build a story with them. It came to the point that some of them were made for different purposes like places and times of the day.

DJing come has something natural after returning from South America after a 7 year period doing volunteer work, then raising a family and working with bambo has a business around the year 2000, first mixing psy trance, and gradually slowing down into more downtempo psy chill and latter to ambient, psy/nu jazz, post-classic, acoustic and instrumental music and movies/games Soundtracks.

I have to say that i really love mixing different things in one set to again get that story going somewhere, sometimes Im sure where im going others the Music takes over. 

By 2005 started a club in Lisbon with my brother called Tuatara, we held events of all sorts for some years, from psy-trance to D&B, Techno to Rock, but my interest was more into the many Chillout Sessions we organised.

My musical selections are always about the melody and its textures to create a broad emotional landscape, love the fusion between instruments and electronic input, but i like music to have soul, light and air from which we can all breath and nourish.

Catan Cotie — Alignment

The remarkable mix “Alignment,” released by the Brazilian DJ Catan Cotie around 2012 is a real masterpiece and reveals the peculiar moment of the Dj Set project around his own oldschool moments in his career. The sound evolves distant styles inside this intense laboratory of Mashups and exotic mixes. A fine selection, revealing new producers and new experimentations on that period of time, composes and conducts through an alchemic and ethereal experience on this masterpiece.


It’s time to keep going. To see what is in front of us and still climbing the mountain. Patience and knowledge are always welcome in our lives. Alignment.
