The passage of time is subtle, almost invisible until you stop to notice it. Remnants of the past linger in the neon glow of an old sign, in the hand-painted lettering on a shopfront, in the quiet corners of a changing city.

TROVE 014 | Marli

Channeling this optimism, Marli has been on a writing spree lately, putting the final touches on not one, but two new EPs. The first of these is set to drop on the prestigious Parisian label, Skylax. Like any savvy expat, Marli has timed her return to Paris as spring begins to bloom.

“ZAZA” ft. Yeti | Matteo Just | Phelt Phinds 040

Yeti, a solitary fellow armed only with his BMX and a few cigarettes, lingers on rooftops and cruises down foggy streets, perpetually fearful of some unseen enemy.

“Mirroring” | Louf | Phelt Phinds 039

This curtain closer feels like a ballsy venture to a far-flung planet. Picture a solitary astronaut hopping into a shuttle and blasting off towards a vibrant sphere, with no clue as to what lies on its surface.

TROVE 013 | DJ Popup

Listening to DJ Popup is like sipping a drink so zesty, it fizzes over the rim. His five TROVE picks are no different–venturing through early 90’s American House, squelchy dub groovers and smooth tech house from the dawn of the new millennium.

Good Mourning | Nick Bannehr | Phelt Pheatures

That passion for sequencing still burns brightly in Good Mourning, a striking photo book chronicling Nick’s first weeks in London. Through distinctive portraits and snapshots, Nick offers a glimpse into a city of nearly nine million at a time of sorrow, uncertainty and indifference.

“Bliss Song” | Soria | Phelt Phinds 038

“Bliss Song” by Irish producer Soria is a walk through a garden that has just experienced a healthy dose of rain. Made up of synths that sound like walking towards an altar and whispered voices, this one feels like everything is going to be okay.

“Blue” | Freya McKee | Phelt Phinds 037

Scuttling drums and perky guitar chords meld wonderfully as Freya laments about the weight of having to try and front up when things with a loved one just aren’t right.

TROVE 012 | Soul Wun

Not only is the instrumentation and production superbly tight, but each song is attached to a particular moment of struggle or triumph Blake has endured over the last few years. After hearing the album, we thought I wonder what other audio Blake drinks in? And for that, there’s TROVE 012.

TROVE 011 | Hannah D

After listening to her Melbourne Deepcast mix we had to have this purveyor of progressive sound on for a TROVE segment. A set of Hannah’s is a smorgasbord of the deepest cuts from across the prog, house and trance galaxies.

TROVE 010 | Anna Lunoe

People adore Anna for her curiosity about new sounds and her drive to propel producers who make them into the spotlight. Anna is forever sponging up music, looking into the nooks and crannies of a vast club world; therefore, this treasure TROVE should be a ball.

Photo Booths Of Berlin | Yvette Scott

In Berlin, the chemical photo booth is an institution, with booths, or ‘Photoautomats’, located all across the city. While visiting Berlin in the summer of ‘23, I decided to locate these booths as a way to explore the city, an easter egg hunt of sorts.

Nomadic Perfectionist | George Hatton | Phelt Pheatures

George’s creations pop. There’s a freshness to his output that feels like a garden hose aimed at you on a scorching summer day. The typographical explorations are bold and clean, leaving an indelible impression on both the page and the mind.

Subcultural Exuberance | Saul Good | Phelt Pheatures

Studying Saul’s work there’s a playfulness and zest to every subject matter he tackles. In one piece, a painter whistles a merry tune as he heads off for a day on the job. In another, a jolly fruit vendor juggles oranges in a commissioned work for Atomic Beer.

Delightfully Deviant | Kim Manning | Phelt Pheatures

What Kim puts down on paper is stunning, an unbridled depiction of sexual pleasure. Wielding an array of watercolours she brings raunchy and arousing scenes to life. In one work, women explore each other's soaking bodies in the shower. In another, a man enters his partner as they writhe under the sheets.

More Than Human | Bela Rofe | Phelt Pheatures

The Australian artist (now based in Berlin) leans into the growing posthuman and ecocritical art movements which focus on decentering Human beings and reminding us of the interconnectedness of all life; fauna, flora and beyond. Sparked by her innate “curiosity about if and how other organisms think, feel and communicate”, Rofe uses her work to remind us we live in a “more-than-human world”.
