Magician On Duty Podcast Series

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series! Magician On Duty welcomes a new chapter in its Journey Series with a deeply evocative episode from COTU (Citizen of the Universe) (@cotusounds) — a DJ and producer whose work treats electronic music less as genre and more as lived experience. COTU’s story reads like liner notes written in motion. Born in the Far East of Russia, shaped by distance and displacement, he carries the worldview of a true outsider — curious, searching, and untethered. His musical awakening came not in a studio, but at dawn: New Year’s Day 2017, at Thailand’s SIMIRAM Festival on Koh Phangan. A wooden dance floor hovered above the sea, visuals rippled across stone, fire dancers moved against the dark, and a violin cut through the air as the sun rose. It was there, in that fleeting convergence of sound, light, and human connection, that music revealed itself not as entertainment, but as transformation. That revelation followed him west. In the United States, during a period marke

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series! Magician On Duty Journey Series opens a new chapter in 2026 with Melamanos (@melamanos), a selector from Minsk, Belarus, whose relationship with music is less about genre and more about devotion. This is sound chosen with intention — soulful, patient, and unafraid to linger in the in-between. A true believer in the art of the slow dance, Melamanos moves through a wide emotional spectrum: from multicultural electronica and organic rhythms to romantic, introspective shades of tech. Since 2018, his path has been guided by downtempo and midtempo currents, tribal echoes, folktronic details, and the hypnotic pull of chillrave — music designed not to rush, but to breathe.

This episode reflects that vision with remarkable clarity. Moving through noir-infused electronica, hypnotic slow-burn grooves, and propulsive late-night energy, LUXUS curates a journey that feels like watching a new self assemble
