“Curating music compilations has taught me that the best results often come from following an intuitive approach based on respect and trust. This collection is a mix of sonic contributions from irl & Internet friends, their connections, and talented artists I've discovered through platforms like SoundCloud.

“The selection is deliberately eclectic, spotlighting some of Morocco's most underrated musicians who are redefining the boundaries of electronic music (in my opinion). In this context, all the featured artists are best described as "musicians/artists" rather than just "producers."

This compilation breaks away from commercial norms, steering clear of the commercial rap, pop and DJ scenes that often dominate the spotlight. The goal was to present a diverse and forward-thinking collection that offers a futuristic perspective on Morocco's electronic music scene.

At the moment, there’s an inspiring wave of Moroccan musicians, artists, designers, filmmakers, and thinkers creating groundbreaking work and elevating Morocco’s cultural presence on the global stage. Bringing these incredibly talented individuals together has been an honor, and I hope it sparks even more collaborations across the various creative scenes in the future.

What makes this project even more meaningful is that all profits will be donated to INSAF, a nonprofit organization that has long supported mothers and children in Morocco and is now extending its efforts to assist victims of the El Haouz earthquake. I vividly remember writing a school paper about their impactful work growing up in Casablanca—this feels like a full-circle moment. Big thanks to 3xOJ for bringing their mission back to my attention and inspiring this connection.” - Bergsonist 2025

what is place: a location specific electronic music compilation series where all proceeds are donated to local groups working on important causes in that area such as environment, human rights, conflict aid, and support.

The goal is to build a global network of music producers bringing important issues to the electronic music community and world at large.

Electronic music is a truly egalitarian, classless, and empowering art form. 1000's of producers have emerged from every corner of the globe in recent years, infusing their own culture and influences into the endless mix.

Let’s highlight more producers than the few who constantly tour, show up on the same lists and parties. Let's promote electronic music as an activist artform by and for the people.
