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).
A bunch of new albums and tracks coming up. On tonight's show: Shaped Signs, a "flatrate" collaboration between Dresden and Köln, Tangram from Hungray with a very much Tangerine Dream influenced new album, Urania Man giving you the chill you need, and UtopiaXO with his debut album The Light.
And next week: an interview special with Bjørn Jeppesen a.k.a. Nattefrost from Denmark! You should not miss that very exclusive episode.
