• 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).

     

Beats like a drum

Episode 218

We pamper the beats tonight, given some constant rhythmic focus in our tracks but quite varying in speed. This show's sound sometimes gets a bit darker, more melancholic in style than usually. But still, overall, very cool and fitting music. The entrée is made by Fort Fairfield with their brand new album Prenzlauer Berg. More pushing then, with Sankt Otten's soon to come album Die Messias Maschine. Getting a bit lighter with Varier and then being Futurized by Nattefrost. After that, Monsieur Electronique sends us to Tsokati Beach. Right before we enjoy Exoskeletons in Space with Bluetech.
