Lifting listeners into a sky-high dimension, UK duo NIGHTLAPSE make their Purified Records debut with ‘Weightless’. Forming an instant connection with listeners during Nora En Pure’s DJ Mag Top 100 stream from Bali, this melodic cut provides a sonic escape with rippling synth work and soaring vocals.

The ‘Weightless’ artwork features a powerful underwater still, shot by Daniel Nicholson. For decades, large corporations have poisoned rivers, devastated forests, and displaced communities. Now, they’re rushing to mine minerals from the last untouched frontier on the planet — the deep sea. The deep sea may be vast and unexplored, but it is incredibly important. It encompasses 95% of the ocean’s volume and is the largest and least explored of Earth’s ecosystems. Some scientists believe that the deep sea and its water column may be the largest carbon sink on Earth, and new species are still being found there. Deep-sea mining would dwarf all other mining operations in human history, and it would take place in a part of the planet that we are only just now beginning to understand. If this dangerous experiment goes wrong, it risks triggering a domino effect of unintended consequences that could destabilize the ocean, trigger food insecurity, and affect all life on Earth. Organizations like Only One and The Oxygen Project are dedicated to shaping a climate-resilient future, and calling for an end to deep seabed mining.
