What a colorful episode we have tonight, mostly blueish with sprinkles of red and yellow will jump out of the speakers to you. The session starts with a double by Code Indigo and their upcoming album Meltdown. Pursued by some Klangfarben (i.e., colors of sound) brought to us by Klangwald. We then get bright yellow Sun beams served by Thaneco. Right before we go back to relish the king of the blue with RAL 5002 by TMA featuring Martinson.
Walking on the darker and more ambient side tonight. Maybe, it's because of the weather sticking to its darkness and cold for so long, but the music is not really dragging one down. So while there is a happy party in Bochum, namely the Schallwelle Awards, here come sounds providing brain training. We start with Lefolk's asking us Isn't this Dangerous? Followed by some Kartography by Praguedren. We then listen to Morsemusik, actually a collaboration track by Christian Doil and Altus. We are learning that Emotions are Desert Islands from aAirial and enjoy some Photogenesis by Ryan Lucht. Then, eyes cast down debuts with The Separate Ones. While The Ghost Between the Strings and Mystified continue their collaboration with Ghostbone 2. And finally, we visit The Master of Crossroads with Ujjaya.
Quite a number of new releases on tonight's show, opened by the new album Zeitenwende by moonbooter. Also fresh from the stove comes Meesha's free album Ether. As is Alone by id Submerged, which just entered the list of fine releases at kahvi. Solar phases are what Deltason is up to on his recent music treasure. And then we have Hagen von Bergen as a new name with his 2010 album Jetzt!. A peek into the future is provided from Apollo by Banco de Gaia. Which is followed by tonight's closing track from moonbooter's Zeitenwende.
