After yet another busy week, I prefer a bit lighter evening. Especially, before hot and stormy weather reaches us on the weekend. Crazy world. Also crazy is that series I am watching, where people's brains get split to properly seperate work from life. Quite a popular show, it seems, which I only found out about as I watched a video by Charles Cornell, who was amazed by the tv's title theme. And I agree, the intro music is really cool and to the point, very much what I like about cinematic music. Kind of like the title theme for the Westworld series, which got me immediately, when I heard it. Well, we are not in the world of cinematic sounds tonight, but rather one the easy side. But, of course, I have great music for you by Enigmatic Obsession (Secrets of Seduction), Tony Sieber (Because we are), Matt Goodluck (Portals), Ambient Ballroom (Bionic Steam Stream), Lane, Gregorius, Smith (Lost Desert Highway), Roberto Sass ft. Enlia (We're so much more than shadows), Code Indigo (Endgame), Erik Wøllo (Gateway (remaster)), Dino Pacifici (Unfocused Dream Fragments), Marcator (PanAroma Reincarnations), moonbooter (Syncope 1).

 Have you heard of this 100 percent AI band that gained momentum the past weeks? I've seen several reports on this artificial artists on Youtube and it's quite astonishing how well their music is received. The Velvet Sundown was created completely from artificial intelligent sources, especially their music and their band photos. And still, people seemed to like it, as the numbers on Spotify and otherwise say. I only heard some excerpts, definitely not my style of music, and it did sound kind of bland. But quite a lot of current popular music does. So it's great to be back on the side of human made electronic and electric sounds and music with tonight's great edition featuring Wildsilences vs Progeny -1 (Wild Moon Remixes), moonbooter (Syncope 1 & 2), Spiralectric (Durchströmungen 4 - Wellenbrecher), Klangwelt (Second Nature), D. Batistatos (Cosmicleaf Mixtape 004 (Psychill)), Holle Mangler (Tales From A Fairyworld (Part 2)), Markus Reuter (TRUCE 3), Maximum Movement Theatre (The June Solstice 2025), Otarion (Time of Nations).

Are you nuts?! Whoever send the heatwave these days must be. But the uncountable number of degrees match with the world's recent politics as well. And that is all over the world. So, was everything better back in the days? Maybe not. But some really good comes from those golden days back last century, and that is the music inspiration, which I most times mention as traditional EM. And from those roots sprung many more cool sounds and sequence explorers. Like the ones you can enjoy with this edition. Take a seat and some good headphones to join me for cool stuff by Peter Mergener (Cinema in My Head - The World of Visible Sound), Altus (Terraform), Fusion of Elements (3MIT-TIME), Eagle (Synth. Music) (The narrow path), Planet of the Arps (Planet of the Arps 2), Hari Maia (Universalis), Ivan Black (The Moonshine Boys).s).

There is a lot of heat out there. Well, I am not only talking about the weather, which is said to go up to 36 C next week. And I am not build for hot weather, I tell you that. And we do not have some AC around, either. Will be fun, or not. Beside that, the world is going crazier each day, building up another kind of heat. Last week, we had some nice and quiet ambient to get some mind rest. To kind of continue the more relaxing scenery, this week we will go in the chillout direction and enjoy excellent peaceful music by Stefan Erbe (Metamorphosys), AE van Elst Projects (One), Klangwelt (Second Nature), Glint (The Beginning), Erothyme & Kursten Brewer (Tea Sessions), Achillea (Cinema in My Head - The World of Visible Sound), Thomas Lemmer & Lukas Midub (Perspectives), Side Liner & Aviron (Cosmicleaf Mixtape 003 (Psychill)), iRoadie ft. Stefanosis (Dub Time), CIALYN (Decenium), MOLOCH 303 (Colours).

Sunshine and peace is all I need currently. Being quite busy in my head and life being a bit unpredictable, it's those quieter moments that I relish a lot. Calming body and soul for while and let other things be what they are. It would be great if one could simply close one's eyes and the crazy world would go away. Well, it does not. But to me it seems important to find those silent spots in life to not explode and get mad yourself. Here you get an hour of time with ambient sounds, and I hope not to be of too much annoyance in between. Enjoy the music by Carl Lord (Illuminated Expanse), Dashmesh (Teletai), Ambiente Solstice feat. Dashmesh (The World Above The Clouds), Blue Is Nine (Tall Pines), John Scott Shepherd & Jamie Zarfas (Distant Moon), Karl Schoenberg (Spectre), Tim Didymus & Foster Neville (Ulla), Telson (Drums Along The Ambient River Part 1), Cousin Silas (Drums Along The Ambient River Part 2).

Several years ago, I was co-funding a movie. Well, it was a crowdfunded flick with the sole purpose of making a cranzy movie thought out by a crazy mind. Now, if your life would be a movie, what part of the script would you alter? Would it be a great idea to remove some actions or hesitaions of yours that let to unfortunate situations? Or would cutting them make you become a different person? But more important, what soundtrack would accompany your life? There is always music in a modern movie, is there not? It supports the emotional part of the story. So here are some suggestions for the movie of your life. Great stuff by Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist), Holland Phillips (A Sense of Distance), Tuula Martin (Urban Lullabies), Time Away (Osirian Wave), Der Bischof (Garden of Perdition), Janne Hanhisuanto (Yume), Art Of Infinity Cinematic Audio 1), Gabríel Ólafs (Polar), Martin Herbst (Mystic Moments), Phaeleh (Fear of Silence), Volker Rapp (Blade Runner 2099).

This was definitely one beat speed week for me, at least at work with so many stuff to do. And all of the tasks were very urgent, of course. It's always at the end of the week or deadlines, when the need to finish up things suddenly appear on ones doorstep. And, thus, the choice of music was between some ultra ambient to cool down and some body moving sounds to power oneself out. For tonight I chose the latter, so join me for a great selection of electronic dance and body music by Decode Blue (Cruise The Groove), Omel & Rising Galaxy (Cosmicleaf. Mixtape 003 (Psychill)), xols (sharp and chispi), db-Maui (this feeling), One Dub Connection & David Laake (Sonic Fractals), Falling Bytes (Civil war), Morgen Wurde, Tis, Tetsuroh Konishi (Erwuchs), granlab/dml (movements).

Yes, we are back. A short forced break, so it's the return of syndae, but also the return to the golden age of sequencing with this edition. This music is still one of the drivers for EM, serving some sounds that come in waves and simply pull you with them into the wonderful world of aural colours and natural rhythm of life. I think it's the ever steadiness of change that grabs me each time, when a sequence kicks in and takes over the beat of my thinking and feeling. And tonight is no difference with the great music by Robert Schroeder (Mosaique. Edit 2025), Vanderson (2055), DASK Music (Transitions (2025)), Harald Gramberg (Sequences), Yakuza Jacuzzi (Space Race), Ivan Black (Book List).
