A studious mix by DJ Ilmajaam is like a surreal Chirico's painting “The Seer” where lonely mannequin figure sits under the transcendental light.

The author of the mix is Viktor Vinogradov, Tallinn based electronic music DJ, better known as DJ Ilmajaam. After starting a DJ’s carrier in the late 90's, Viktor accumulated a considerable collection of diverse and rare vinyls. He has shared a stage with authoritative figures like Vladislav Delay, Kangding Ray, Move D, Anders Ilar and is a member of noticeable Freerotation festival. Viktor is also an organizer of intellectual music festival “KURUKRILL” and a curator of several continuous event series like “KODU TUNNE”. He is also active in the field of culture and human rights where he fights against global injustice.

“Secret Thirteen Mix 017” is a communicative musical compilation which consists of 29 precisely selected individual creations. All works in this less than 1 hour mix are around 2 minutes long and clearly mirrors Viktor's plentiful musical experience. The emotional balance is continuous even though each track has a different structural background. The mixing is quick, but accurate and delicate. A cinematic ambience is enhanced by occasionally emerging glitched rhythmical layers and frequently changing variable unique sounds, melodies. This selected music is carrying a reformative message to the people who care about sensitive worldwide processes and who seek justice and peace.

“Secret Thirteen Mix 017” is like an Italian surrealist Giorgio de Chirico's painting “The Seer” where lonely mannequin-like hybrid figure sits under the transcendental light which surrounds all other dreamy architectural objects.
