Do you need some time off? Well, you are in the right place with this edition. In there, you will find no information about politic stunts, nothing on crazy leaders, and definitely no clickbaiting. It would be pure relaxation in a one hour mix, if it wasn't for me throwing in words on the artists and labels involved. Hope you don't mind. In the end, if you like what you hear, you can always go for the music and fetch it for your home theatre and enjoy the whole deal sitting on the sofa. Now, you may do so as well while listening to the show, with excellent chillout music by Greenlab ft. Backstage Gurus (Beyond Borders), Enigmatic Obsession (Secrets of Seduction), Encounters Stars (Veil of Echoes), Eleon (Freedom), Sine (Under the Sky), Thomas Lemmer & Thomas Foster (In the Sky), Tawdry Otter & Captive Portal ft. Toryn (Making Things Happen: Netlabel Day 10th Anniversary Compilation), Xipe Totec Dub (Dub Free. Vol. 12), SOUND2次元 (Imaginary Sequences), Sferix (Moments), Tony Sieber & Thomas Lemmer (Moments Between), David Bach (The David Bach Collection), Claude9 (Chords of Love).

As you may know by now, besides being a great fan of electronic-based music I am also a serials junkie. Recently, I watched quite a number of Anime. Because they are short (about 20 minutes per show) and sometimes really fun. Of course, I am also a fan of Scifi shows. But sometimes, it just does not work out. Being a fan of Star Trek, I tried watching the latest season of Discovery. Currently I am stuck on episode 3, I think, as it is simply too soapy to me. Then I started with Strange New Worlds, and I am hooked again. What a difference in style and making. Well, I am living to early in history to go for some star travel, at least in person. But there is always a great aural trip around the corner, like with the music you get tonight by DASK Music (Rosetta), DTime (Shadows of Time), Eleon (The Darkside of Far), Progeny-1 and Cosmic Cadence (Mystical Cities), Paul Ellis (Here is Where), Cousin Silas & Maximum Movement Theatre (Transmission From an Unknown Source), Ivan Black (Distant Dreams Part 2).

Exciting times ahead with the season of electronic music events in late summer and fall in Germany and the Netherlands. Three of them being featured in this edition showcasing some of the acts. First up being a new one (to me at least) named "Molk-e-tronica" with two days of cool artists. Second the Dutch Electronic Masters series being continued for 2025 with 6 acts on stage. And finally the well known and loved Electronic Circus with some great legends of EM and of course one guest from another world. Join in for some cool hour with music by Gate Eleven (First Contact), o.s.cillator (Dali‘s Dub Machine), Elektronische Maschine (Life goes on), Arjen Schat (Propagations Through Time And Space: Prequel), Marius Nitzbon (Birds are my Friends), Harald Grosskopf (Strom), Stan Dart (Space Race), Proqnostiq and Turius Mansi (Netlabel Day 2025), Mitoma & Abdicant and Brainquake & XOTOX (Making Things Happen: Netlabel Day 10th Anniversary Compilation), Conny Olivetti (Fish do not shout!).

So, recently I mentioned that show, which definitely was sci-fi. Last week I watched another TV show, that started out as kind of film noir, but then surprisingly turned into sci-fi as well. Completely unnecessary in my opinion, as I liked the show up to this twist. A similar experience sometimes occurs with a song. It starts out great as space ambient, but then unexpectedly turns, for example, into some soapy pop, completely throwing me off and makes it vanish from my playlist. Luckily for us, all tracks of this edition "behave well". Some definitely have twists, but well made and for the better. So, please, join me for some ambient greatness by moonbooter (Syncope 2), Jaffe (Depth), Ambient Indigo and Time Away (Mystical Cities), Bernd-Michael Land (Schwer-Metall: Klang aus Erde), Anantakara (Glimpse Of Changes), Cousin Silas & Mr Z (The Cardinal Points: East Part 2), Markus Reuter & Stephan Thelen (Promise of a Better World).

Once a year, the vast amount of netlabels out there join in for a special day: the netlabel day. Same so in 2025, where they put out once again such a massive amount of releases that it is difficult to listen to them all in a week. I tried my best to select some of the cool releases fitting the style of syndae as close as possible. Tonight is the first bunch of songs from that occasion, and there may be more to come. For tonight, enjoy with me the sounds of Tim Koch + Waldgrenze (Making Things Happen: Netlabel Day 10th Anniversary Compilation), BTB (The Strongest Friend in the Universe), Particle of Soul (Particle of soul), Mas&Delayer (Heroes in my bed), Pasquale Maassen vs Peter Mummert (Netlabel Day 2025 Techno Warriors), Pablo Javier Piacente (El Antiguo Dolor De La Selva), Anderdog (Netlabel Day 2025), Soft and Furious (The Flood), Eko_Fisk & Gears in the Rain (Zenapolae 25), C da 76er (Anime Christrumentals), Potenciómetro (Crema), Space Ark Slum Lord (clay makes no protest), Isien (Kanashibari World), Plateau Sigma (The Great Reset).

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).
