• Holy sequencing

    It's been more than 20 years ago now that I've been living in Berlin. And while I seldom look or go back physically, maybe for a short visit now and then, I often do so in my mind. Especially, when listening to music from the Golden Age of EM, where many of the artists being in synthesized sounds "went" to its School. There are still several artists from the old guard out there, some still producing new music. But many of the space ambient style music nowadays comes from a younger folks. And their take on Berlin style sounds, while surely referencing the ideas of the past, are fresh and current and also timeless. Join me for a mental visit to Berlin with great music by NGC 224 (Mystic Forests), Novaexperiment (Quantum Pulse), Craig Padilla & Marvin Allen (Unfolding Skies), Joerg Dankert (Back to Berlin), Paul Ellis (Room Of The Lost One), IcingWolf (Crossroads), Ivan Black (Black 3), Small Chief (Zero Movement).

     

Striking some nerves

Episode 761

While there are storms happening in the economic world, we gear down a lot and go for some serenity in this edition. Wouldn't it be nice to have humans be united and care for their kind and each other instead of looking for one's own advantage? Well, maybe not for some people. I don't know. Maybe life would be boring that way. I like boring, though. Na, not really. I prefer challenging sounds and musical journeys, for example. That's why there are no drones on syndae. To me, music has to have some kind of structure to it. Something that tickles my ears and my brain. Join me, won't you? For some cool ambient and related music by Erik Wøllo (Where the River Widens), Sine (Impuls), Level Pi (Elektronische Klänge), Cousin Silas & aka:man (Cousin Silas & aka:man), Orchestra Indigo (Hearing Visions), Loneward (Gossamer Wings of Illusion), Blue Is Nine (So Far from Home), Dino Pacifici (Beyond The Solar Influence), sevensy (one2one), Wellengärtner (Movements).
