Crack your egg

Episode 296

If this edition has anything to do with easter, it is some of tonight's artists live eastern from my place. No, it's quite about beatiful music tonight, so stash your eggs and pick up your bunny for a dance. We'll have a rhythmic ride along with tracks by Plasterdog and Smartfish (Pindaric), moonbooter (Live 4), Mateo Relief (Midnight Radio 37), Vadim Kotinskiy (Mood), Faris (Pause), and Abiz Sonko (Markarian 421).

Up and away

Episode 295

Last weekend I enjoyed the festivities of the Schallwelle award prize givings with about 300 artists, makers, and friends of electronic music. A real fun to meet all those people again and have nice talks all evening long. So, still being in a happy mood, tonight's choice of tracks surely reflects this, although it's rather quietly sounding. Ah, well, simply take half an hour and listen to the show, very nice tracks enlisted by Sebastien Marchal (Goldfish), Forrest Fang (Letters to the Farthest Stars), Altocirrus (Members of AmbiOfusion - Forever Together), Curious Inversions (Schoolyard Crows), and Mythos (Jules Verne Forever).

Freshly sliced

Episode 294

Spring, yeah, finally! And it started with a (partial) eclipse of the sun in this part of the hemisphere. And if spring fever cought you, check out tonight's episode providing a vast bunch of electronica with tracks by Xenoton (Traveller), Exit Project (The Past is the Future), Angström Institute (Origin of Ghosts), Harald Nies (Horizon), Yunas (Yunas), Beat.dowsing (Rising Current), tonblende (Zeitreise), and DFRNT and Nearfield (Phaeton Chronicles 2).

Resting well

Episode 293

Do you believe in souls? Strange question, you might say. But having a soul seems not obvious and especially not very scientific. Nevertheless, tonight's show presents music for your soul. Beautiful scapes floating and tickling all along, calm but still breathtaking. So, find a nice and cosy place, lean back and dive into the aural scenes by Marsen Jules (The Empire of Silence), FlatOpus (Melancholy Monk), Leniad (Threads), Harald Nies & Wolfproject, Keving Lyons (Night Visions), Amotken (Kuro), and Numina & Zero Ohms (Broken Stars Through Brilliant Clouds).

Festive lookahead

Episode 292

Tonight's a special episode, looking ahead at the upcoming E-Day festival in Oirschot, Netherlands on April 18th. It's also special as it is a call to action, as we are close to the action date for the event, that is March 12th to decide upon the event taking place. And to make sure, the more tickets are booked the more likely E-Day will continue to present great artists in an enjoyable environment. So best go for it as soon as you can. And to give you a tiny help, you will get the full range of live acts of E-Day on this show. These are Peter Nooten, Filterkaffee (Schönwälder & Rothe), Baltes & Erbe, Skoulaman, and Air Sculpture. Great stuff for a good price.

Gents at keys

Episode 291

A joyride with sequences and more traditional electronic elements is on tonight's playlist. We actually have the gentlemen of synth musicians in this episode. And as kind as the guys are, as kind is the music playing for us in many different colors. Join in for great tunes by Kellerkind Berlin (Signs), Broekhuis, Keller & Schönwälder (Direction Green), Howard Givens & Craig Padilla (Life Flows Water), DigitalSimplyWorld (Seeds), Helicon Wave (Black Halo Pyramid), and Alba Ecstasy (Unpredictable Intersections Over the Time and Now). And don't miss the opportunity to experience Broekhuis, Keller and Schönwälder live on March 13 and 14 in Repelen.

Delicious beats

Episode 290

We're more on the rhythm side tonight, let the drums talk to our heart and body. Just the right pace to enjoy the flight of sounds and images entering our mind. Best for this episode to sit back and let the beats grab you for an aural journey of chill. And this is what you get to hear: Baltes & Erbe (S-thetic²), Harald Grosskopf (Synthesist 2010), Organoid (Spectral Theory), Beat.Dowsing (Rising Current), Seazo (A Tribute to Cosmos), and eCe boas (Fischland). And don't miss out the upcoming events by Baltes & Erbe (E-Day and more) and Stefan Erbe with Harald Grosskopf on March 7.

Aural pleasantry

Episode 289

Just found some snowdrops on our houses corner these days, what a nice and beautiful sight. Those dainty and frail flowers finding a little spot to bloom. Is it coincidental that I picked just such kind of tracks for tonight's show? Maybe, but I think not. Well, after last week's wild ride we now have the wonderful world of harmony on the playlist. I hope, you enjoy the music as much as I, as it eased my mind during a busy week. On this show you get tracks by Bruno Sanfilippo (Inside Life), Alio Die & Lorenzo Montanà (Holographic Codex), Psicodreamics, Cousin Silas (Amidst Silence), and Michael Harris and Owsey & Resotone A New Beginning, For All of Us / Compilation).

Salient ingrediences

Episode 288

Boy, it is freezing out there. Finally. This is what winter is meant to be in Germany around this time. Not that I would miss it, if it were warmer. What I would miss though, is a change in style and some listening challenge in electronic and ambient music. So tonight's such a night, where I have more not so easy listening tracks on the show. And I really hope, you enjoy the music to broaden your senses and musical experience. So open your ears and mind to have fun with: Abjective (Black ][ Trees) Catacombs of Doom and Hagen von Bergen (Midnight Radio Compilation 34), Noston (Malkuth), and finally Madstyle (Threads). Head your phones.
