If there is one instrument for electronic music that is cult, this is it: The Roland TR-808. The percussive foundation for many styles, starting with Electro, Hip-Hop, House, and also diving hard into popular music as well. So, here is an hommage to the legend in drum sounds with show number 808. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on songs, especially via social channels. I cannot guarantee, all the tracks use the original TR-808, but its the spirit, right? Well, join in for some really cool tracks from, I think, artists never heard on syndae before. Cool sounds you get by Aphex Twin (Selected Ambient Works 85-92), Ryuichi Sakamoto (B-2 Unit), Underground Resistance vs Nomadico (The Final Frontier (Remix)), Professor X (StatiX), Drexciya (Neptune's Lair), Hashim (Electro Compiled by Joey Negro), Cybotron (Clear), The Egyptian Lover (1983-1988), Dynamik Bass System (The Mighty Machine), New Order (Confusion).
A little aftermath to E-Day tonight, music by people who were to see live on stage or to be met in the halls. It was a great Saturday in Oirschot again and we all enjoyed meeting each other and listening to great gigs. On tonight's episode 89 you will find very recent and brand new releases by Callisto, Geigertek, Gert Emmens, Remy, Stefan Erbe, and TMA.
Did you like practicing science at school? Luckily some musicians do enjoy experimenting with sounds and scapes to our delight. Tonight's playlist goes on a rather experimental, avant-garde, and ambient trip, and I hope you will take a ride to the outer regions of electronic music. Episode 88 presents relaxing and thrilling tracks by Alio Die & Parallel Worlds, Ametsub, Gastón Arévalo, Michael Hoffmann, Pesce/De Vito/Henkel, and UtopiaXO.
Time to blow all the stress out of your mind, having some really hot material on tonight's show. The most rocky and dancable episode ever, spiced with brand new material that is waiting to be released. Rhythm and drive goes right upfront, with tracks by Maxxess and Wellenfeld. Slowly turning down with chill out by Guido Negraszus and Audiokonstrukte. And finally, starting to relax with the heir of Jarre and Garrison: Schallwelle award winner Meesha.
It's spring time in the northern hemisphere and the first barbecues are sprouting in the gardens. And the best, new releases and newcomers are sprouting, too. On tonight's episode, we have both of them. Brand new and relatively new albums by Broekhuis, Keller and Schönwälder as well as by Wellenfeld. A very warm welcome also to a young newcomer from northern Germany: Matzumi, who will have her live appearance at Winnies Gardenparty on July 17th. And all of this completed by a well known EM project, Redshift from the UK.
Join me for a journey to the outer regions of electronic music, meeting ambient and avant-garde style electronica by some of the finest artists around. Let the infinite void embrace your mind and enjoy marvellous and brand new tracks by Alien Nature, Centrozoon, jujigen, Marsen Jules, and silvercord.
