With deep gratitude to the magnificent Monument ! ~∆*

Text Monument (by Joe Mayberry)

What’s better than a mix from electronic music royalty Cio D'Or ? Two mixes. This week we present something very special, a tale told across two chapters. As a mainstay of techno for over two decades, Cio D'Or has consistently pushed boundaries, gracing the decks of revered institutions worldwide and crafting a legendary discography with releases on Prologue, Semantica, Hypnus, Time to Express and more.
Across both mixes you will hear Cio’s unparalleled ability for sculpting minimalism and sonic architecture, masterfully recontextualizing familiar and obscure tracks alike, breathing new life into them and unveiling hidden dimensions. She dissects, reassembles and creates intricate connections between disparate sounds, all flawlessly executed with an alchemist’s touch.
Prisma 33 starts at a slower tempo, delicately building into an eruption of psychedelic minimalism. Dada grows with kinetic energy, with Cio sculpting sounds and textures into a deep trip where time seems to bend and dissolve, finishing with an unexpected wildcard that only a master selector could make work.

With special thanks to all the splendid artists who made this mix possible (alphabetical):
Brian Eno - Ben Klock & Fadi Mohem - Brendon Moeller - Denise Rabe - Floid - Floid & W92 - Format Value - Joachim Spieth - Konduku - Lemna - Mike Parker - Mindspan - Popol Vuh (Mika Vainio Rmx) - Refracted - Stanislav Tolkachev - The Verve

This approx. 40min project mix ‘dada’ (80bpm), moves surreal from ambient to fast, furious build-up and ends unexpectedly ,)

prisma 33:
With special thanks to the following splendid artists (alphabetical)
Aleksi Perälä - Alva Noto - Donato Dozzy - Gravity Waves - How to Levitate - Konduku - Marco Shuttle - Mike Parker - Pete Namlook - Plastikman -Sleeparchive - Wata Igarishi

With this approx. 35-minute 80 bpm mix I wanted to achieve a tonal transparency that leads away from earthy themes

Dear music lovers - friends and - colleagues
today the live mix from the wonderful Draaimolen Festival is posted (photo©Sissys Reiterstaffel). At the beginning you can hear the sound of water, because I had to set up all the technical equipment (1210 turntables, audio interface, compu ect) with the help of the lovely crew. Since I prefer project mixes, I will release the essence of the mix (SAPHIR 77) on my Soundcloud page in February.
In April you will then hear a current 35min intro mix called ‘PRISMA 33’ for 2025 via the soundcloud page of the fabulous Monument.
Bright greetings into dark winter days, grateful! Every day is a present! Y. Cio D´Or ~∆*

My dear music lovers,
I wish you all a magnificent new 2025 in the hope for more freedom in this world (inside and out).
... usually a relaxed Dubmix for travelling would have been online a few days ago, but the date seems to be delayed.
The Draaimolen Festival is presenting my live set from Sept.24 on 22nd of january 2025.
As a consolation, here is a New Year's Eve set (last part) from wonderful Osaka @ Universal Adventure - Countdown from 2013 - 2014
(from about 5min you can see Dasha Rush and me dancing Menuett to Murcof ,) please see Link below, thanks)
Cordially, Y.Cio D'Or ~∆* grateful
& and much love also to my Japanese music friends like Ryosuke and Dai and the fantastic crowd (arigatou!!!) ***allover YOU

My beloved follower of music,

on 06.09.2024 I will play a DJ set at the Draaimolen Festival in the Netherlands and - God willing - accept selected gigs again: Occasionally as a DJ (Traktor Scratch Pro), preparing a live set with Ableton Live 12 Suite (I'm a newbie!), which the wonderful company "Ableton Live" gave me and for which I am more than very grateful!
My ambient and piano albums are also in the starting blocks and are paused because of the DJ set.
There are still some fine points to work on.
I will also continue to pursue my piano exercises and compositions with the aim of hopefully being able to play some of them myself in public.
In addition to all these musical endeavours, I have switched from MacPro Intel to Apple Silicon. Unfortunately, some updates to some of the music programmes have become more complicated for the workflow. The installation and "move" became a time-consuming adventure. In addition, some important effects are still not compatible.

Every day is a gift! ~∆*** allover You, Cio
...looks like I'll be meeting some long-term music friends, colleagues, at the festival ,)

Dear music lovers and readers ,)
The wonderful alphabet composer Cédric Finkbeiner (Hypnotic Techno Circles) and I played letters ping - pong for several month, resulting in a " loooong interview" for Orb Mag of a extended time period in music. Anyone who feels like reading on an early spring evening is cordially invited.
Now I will go into silence again and after my operation on 04.04. (incisional hernia from the big operation). From mid-July rather - August/September 2024 - God willing - I will perform for you again and announce all news about music and confirmed gigs for you. Thank you for your understanding! Enjoy the wonderful early spring despite the many bad and sad world events!
Under which certain conditions I will perform is not yet 100% clear, I will let you know at the right time.
Warm wishes Y.Cio ~∆***

Dear music lovers and interested visitors,
the wonderful magazine Groove asked me 28 questions (German).
If you are interested in the answers, you are cordially invited to read them.
God willing and if I can stay healthy, there are already new requests for the second half of the year!
Grace for this world! ~∆* allover Y.Cio D'Or

My dear friends and colleagues in music, first of all, I wish you a marvellous, inspiring and lighthearted 2024 with open ears for exciting soundscapes, techno as well as for the quieter nuances with great impact. For consolation in difficult global times, I send you music for quiet moments

© cio d'or stilldichein, played by Denys Proshayev after the Festival of the Musikfest Wasserschloss GesmoldIn, where he became the artistic director. The recording was made in a church without an audience on a Steinway grand piano.
Gratefully healthy "in the present", I am mentally preparing my new music studio and, God willing, looking forward to the day when I can spread music for you again!
During my rehab, the highlight was an "out-of-tune piano" on which I was allowed to play between treatments until I contracted corona and was sent home.

Cordial + ~∆* Your Cio D'Or

Why?
My conviction arises not only from my personal contacts with Israel and Jewish fellow citizens in Germany as well as my intensive involvement with the expulsions and murders of Jews! I have also had many also nice conversations with Muslims. I am open to all people. What I reject is the condemnation of an entire nation, a race, a religion! You can find background information and facts in my links. I also post the Hamas charter. Anyone who is interested in my opinion is welcome to read it!
Heartfelt blessings and peace for all human beings!

Hello marvelous music friends, - colleagues and - follower !
With deep thanks for all your encouraging and empowering comments and prayers! I am very touched!
A short update:
It's like a miracle: I am living in TODAY and currently healthy with a Parp Inhibitor (tablets) !
After the effective treatments I still need some time of recovery as well as a rehabilitation at the beautiful Chiemsee at the end of this year.
God willing, I will follow my permanent vocation of music again around the middle of next year in order to be there for you musically: Every day is a gift!
As a consolation, I am sending you a video snip of my ambient album "raumlos", which is almost finished in 2022 and which I was allowed to realise within the framework of a Gema scholarship.
Hopefully you all are doing well in these crazy times!?
My thoughts are also with the noble people who are dying of hunger and thirst as a result of the drought and heat, and with the people who are suffering in war zones. Greed for power is a wrong guideline for life.
Cordially + ~∆* Your Cio D'O
