AHIL joins the Monument Podcast from Rotterdam with a rich and immersive addition to the series.

Episode 511 unfolds as an ever-evolving journey, blending depth, energy, and seamless progression throughout.

Some words from the artist -

“Having the opportunity to create a mix for Monument, a platform and festival that has shaped my sound over the past six years, feels truly special.

I approached this mix the same way I would approach a festival set, I want this to feel as a journey shared between artist and dancer. It begins with space to arrive, to settle into the moment, and to prepare for the adventure ahead. Slowly, percussive and deep hypnotic elements emerge, inviting the body to move almost unconsciously.

As the story unfolds, rhythms intensify and tension gradually builds, guiding the listener deeper into the experience. What starts as a subtle pulse evolves into a more intense flow of energy, leading towards a final moment of release”

We welcome Horston with a deep dive recorded live at FOLD in London, capturing the moment he stepped up to open the night.

The set unfolds with patience and intent — a carefully shaped journey through shadowy textures and driving rhythms.

A snapshot in time from the floor of one of London’s most revered spaces.

Some words from the artist -

“MNMT has been my key source of inspiration for some time now, so it feels very surreal for my Unfold Opening set to be featured as a MNMT Recording…

I came to Monument as a volunteer on the bar last year…

After leaving Veggli, having experienced the music I love in the most idyllic setting on earth, dancing in the mud with no shoes, watching the rain fall through the smoke and being able to look at stranger as if they were my lifelong friend, I knew now more than ever that this was the sound I wanted to strive towards in both my DJing and productions.”

Moon Patrol is the musical project of Irina Kotik and Giles Wasserman - here the duo join us with a recording of their set at Barcelona's Laut.

Words from the artists :

This set means a lot to us, and we are super happy that it found its home with Monument! It was recorded at the HOC Radio x Delayed night at Laut in Barcelona on May 30, 2025, a collaboration we put together with our friends from HOC Radio. Binomi and Hue joined us behind the decks and helped make it what it was. One of those nights that stays with you, built with friends and shared with everyone who came through the doors.

Pianeti Sintetici, the alias of Italian producer Davide Perrone (also known as one half of the duo Primal Code), kicks off his set whisper-quiet and spacey, like echoes in the mountains far away. The soundscape is vast, and he slowly introduces curious, organic whooshes and creature-like noises, melodies that feel like they could be from another planet.

It’s all done live, spontaneous and reactive to the crowd’s energy. The skilled artist creates a journey into a sci-fi dreamworld, an emotional sound bath that makes us forget time. Which is perfect.

Pianeti Sintetici enters Varden at 1PM on Sunday, on the fourth and final day of the festival. The weather is cloudy but still warm, a nice Norwegian summer day. At this point we want to lift people, gently, and give everyone time to find their mind, body and feet. And get moving again.

When he has everyone's attention, the Italian introduces a little more color with multiple drum patterns, creating a comforting and uplifting danceable energy.
