• 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).

Episode 280

I love those colourful nights in autumn. Yeah, the temperatures could be more comfortable, but then again, I can wrap myself in cosy clothes and watch the silence. Not so quiet, but beautiful and relaxing is tonight's music. Our starter is one of my early favourits, Brainwork and his album Sunrise. A little event warm up follow, heads up for Steve Baltes and Stefan Erbe live in the Planetarium of Bochum, with tracks from Legacies and Bochum Sky. More new music comes from Audio Cephlon with his late free release. And also brand new is Pieces by the experienced composer Andreas Hack. A shorty then, a nice treat by Adakekema. Right before tonight's finale from the album Beam by Winter Maps.

And before you push the play button: please, if you're an artist in electronic, ambient or related music, check our homepage for information about a compilation to be published together with Radio Happy close to Christmas (but not about Christmas). Maybe, you'd like to submit a track for consideration as well.
