Get harmonoised

Episode 737

Nature is a great invention. Well, not really an invention. But it's great. Especially in autumn, when the forests turn so colourful, all the mushrooms sprouting, everything living in harmony. Ok, nearly everything. But humans. Be it crazy election campaigns. Be it trashing trust in Open Source. Be it fighting and killing others. Now, maybe those things are not really comparable, but they all showcase the stupidity of human kind. And now think about our so called intelligent race being on earth for several thousand years. If you were an alien from outer space, would you be eager to show up and befriend us? Hum, do I sound erratic? Well, let's turn to something more comfy and beautiful: new age and electronic music. A real feast for one's ears I have for you with music by Max Schiefele (Waldgeist), Larkenlyre (Dragonfly Halfdreams), Bernd Scholl (An Evening in The Cave Live), Rodrigo Passannanti (Forgotten Worlds), Suriya (Schallplatte 27: Mythologie), Sam Wilkes (iiyo iiyo iiyo), John Gregorius (Communion), Rena Jones & KiloWatts (Caesura), Holland Phillips (A Sense of Distance), Wane of Summer (Spine of Destiny), Ivan Black (I Can See Another Time).

 

 Sound planting

Episode 736

Since several years now I purchase energy from a supplier of ecological renewable sources. Those are windmills (which,some strange guy claims, kill whales), solar plants, hydropower stations, and so forth. It's a funny thought that they direct electrons from only those sources to my home, which, of course, they don't. It's only they add energy from those sources to the pool and I pick any energy from that pool. If you ask me what's my point on telling you this, the answer is I don't have a point. I just found it curious. And especially, that some people think, over here in Germany we are re-empowering fossil fuels and nuclear power. Plain rubbish. Well, ok, as I said no point. At least none other than on this edition you will find great music full of sequential energy served by Time Away (Chasing Angels), Erik Wøllo (Solastalgia), Paul Ellis & Per Thomhav (Orpheus), Gandalf (A Light from Afar), Gunnar Spardel and Jim Ottaway (Schallplatte 27 - Mythologie), Caught In Joy (Gemstones V), Michael Brückner (The Android Tales (Volume 1)).

 

Fire up your engines

Episode 735

Why do people tend to put their power and energy into making the world a worse place for others and nature then before? Is it a tendency for self destruction of humanity or simple stupidity? I prefer to put forward with positive motions. Supportive behaviour and making others feel better seems much more beneficial than blaming others for one's unfortunate situation. Stumping on the weak, because it is so easy, does not help yourself in any way but making you seemingly look strong. You are not! So I only hope I can make someone's day a bit brighter with the music I present on this podcast. And I have great music on tonight with new and upcoming sounds by Axess/Maxxess (SLEEP), AE van Elst Projects (TWO), Gabriel Le Mar (Light of Unity), Paul Ellis & Per Thomhav (Orpheus), Rena Jones & KiloWatts (Caesura), Pete International Airport (Sea of Eyes), snurretop (Mizzt), Cartas de Japón (Gemstones V), Max Schiefele (Waldgeist).

 

At the pounding sea

Episode 734

Well, here I am again relishing the final days of my vacation, it's the final one for this year. So I thought what better to have than some ambient and relaxing sounds to accompany my fleeting thoughts on the rest I got these days. It's amazing what sitting there and watching the timeless sea pounding softly at the beach does to your mind. It actually raises your senses to relish and experience the environment more strongly. So tonight we will hear music that goes very well with such occasions of solitude and serenity. Or, well, sometimes it will also push your mind to other states. Join in for some great music by TOKEE (Альбатрос Remixes), Craig Padilla & Zero Ohms (To Sleep On Stellar Winds), Sonic Bodhi (Chasing Angels), Carl Lord (Weightless), Ian Craig (Quadrants 2 - Part 1), City of Dawn & Ross Christopher (Empty Rooms), Time Being (Hidden Structures), René van der Wouden (The Magnetic Reconnection).
