    If there is one instrument for electronic music that is cult, this is it: The Roland TR-808. The percussive foundation for many styles, starting with Electro, Hip-Hop, House, and also diving hard into popular music as well. So, here is an hommage to the legend in drum sounds with show number 808. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on songs, especially via social channels. I cannot guarantee, all the tracks use the original TR-808, but its the spirit, right? Well, join in for some really cool tracks from, I think, artists never heard on syndae before. Cool sounds you get by Aphex Twin (Selected Ambient Works 85-92), Ryuichi Sakamoto (B-2 Unit), Underground Resistance vs Nomadico (The Final Frontier (Remix)), Professor X (StatiX), Drexciya (Neptune's Lair), Hashim (Electro Compiled by Joey Negro), Cybotron (Clear), The Egyptian Lover (1983-1988), Dynamik Bass System (The Mighty Machine), New Order (Confusion).

     

Food for fancy days

Episode 320

Come and feel some electronic heart beats tonight, providing some aural information on upcoming festivals and concerts as well as fresh tracks from syndae regulars. Fall really is the time for events, as we just had E-Live in Oirschot which was a great success, and the upcoming B-Wave festival in Belgium. But there are more and smaller events worth visiting, like the return of Raumzeit Festival and a concert by Sine Amplitude. And, surely, B/K/S is up for their Liquid Sound participation. Have a great time listening to amazing tracks by Rike Casper, Wellenfeld (Elements), Sine Amplitude, B/K/S (Green), Klangzaun, and Lutz Thuns & Stan Dart.
