This is definitely too hot for my Chinchilla, to quote some greats in electronic music. I'm currently melting away in my studio, and if you were to put some cheese onto me, I would make a good bacon al forno. Hopefully Sunday will bring a change, as otherwise I cannot think straight anymore. Thus, we are not going too hot with this edition, where I have some easy listening and new agy stuff for you on the playlist. Have some relaxing moments with the music of Stefan Erbe (Best of - Selectronisch Vol 4), Progeny-1 vs Wane of Summer (Cania Remix), Michael Whalen (Standing Near Infinity), King Of Twilight (Echoes in Pink), Sundad (Way Station One), Dieter Spears (String Dreams), Marcator (Terra Incognita), Theresa Bentley & Dino Pacifici (Soft Winds), Urs Fuchs (Fly Lounge II), Thomas Lemmer (A Sky of Light, A Symphony Unfolding & Weightless in a Sea of Light), Parallel Worlds (Explorer).
Tonight we're going from ambient to traditional to modern EM, having very recent releases on the show again. Starting out with the new album by Erik Wøllo having very ambient sounds, visit the fresh release by Johannes Schmoelling, and going on a shifted tunes trip with the Cosmic Octave Orchestra. We then go relaxing with Geigertek and enjoy two tracks of a new free of cost sampler having Magic Dimension and Alpha Lyra. This also is the last episode before a short break, as there will be no new show until November.
Looking back at the Electronic Circus festival, which I and hundereds more were visiting on October 15th to enjoy a fabulous day in Die Weberei. A perfect location, and a perfect line up that turned out to be even better than expected. Glenn made a wonderful opener to the Circus, taking us back to the best years of Jarre transposed into the future. A total surprise to me, and actually my winner of that day, were Schroyder,Skrzek, and Alien Voices, who left me totally stunned wrt. their performance and musical greatness. Unfortunately, no recordings available yet, but I will surely see to put my hands on it. Wave world and Picture Palace music both did very fine performances, overall a magnificent mix of music from traditional to post-rock, spanning from relaxing music and totally getting pushed to ones electronic limits.
The Circus also was the birthplace for at least 17 new releases, some of which I will present on tonight's episode. Amongst these releases were albums by Alien Nature, F.D.Project, Kikai, Matzumi, René vd. Wouden, Synth.nl, Uwe Reckzeh, and Wellenfeld. Furthermore, we take an ear on the upcoming release by moonbooter and close with Stefan Erbe, introducing a soon to come event surely also top notch and available tickets.
Early bird episode this time, because of the Electronic Circus taking the weekend, but you get an XL edition as compensation. If you're not at the Circus, you will enjoy tonight's show bringing you excellent ambient tracks by Arcticology, Bengalfuel, Crystal Dreams, Janne Hanhisuanto, Off Land, Qodobop, Susperia-Electrica, Symatic Star, and The Tide.
Are you up for a radio premiere? You'll find right two within this episode, focusing on new releases and new discoveries anyway. It's a bit mixed in styles tonight, containing extraordinary tracks by 12 Followers/Meteo Xavier, B. Ashra & Ricky Deadking, Psicodreamics, Synth.nl, Triple-S, and Van der Waal.
Catching up with some earlier releases of this and last year, and I take the chance to serve another XL edition with chill and beat tracks. Music on this episode comes from Auma, Beto Narme, Blackberry, Deto and Gleam, Giuliano Rodriques, In Vitro, Niteffect, Para, Sternenspringer, and Wounds.
