Heat off, beat on! That's the general motto of this edition, where we come back to some more "robust" electronic music. Well, not the hardest version, but still. And it feels good to finally breathe normally and getting back to some movement. Some of the tracks on this show are waiting for a while, so great timing to have them finally on. Join in and enjoy some body work with beats by Jessie Marcella (11:11), Projekt Ich ft. Stian Shiver vs FragileChild (In the Fire), Wippe Roma vs Marc Henry (Saga), Alonique (AY AY AY), Jhãna (Rãga), Strange Fruit vs Jonathan Kusuma (Drips), Aus.Gleich vs Lunar Sunset Industries (Durchströmungen 5 - Stromschnellen), Lunar Sunset Industries (Durchströmungen 5 - Stromschnellen), Phil Rodriguez (Into the Sky), ASKARI (Lost), Blake Dailey (Penumbra), Steam Lizard (Love is the Cure).

This is definitely too hot for my Chinchilla, to quote some greats in electronic music. I'm currently melting away in my studio, and if you were to put some cheese onto me, I would make a good bacon al forno. Hopefully Sunday will bring a change, as otherwise I cannot think straight anymore. Thus, we are not going too hot with this edition, where I have some easy listening and new agy stuff for you on the playlist. Have some relaxing moments with the music of Stefan Erbe (Best of - Selectronisch Vol 4), Progeny-1 vs Wane of Summer (Cania Remix), Michael Whalen (Standing Near Infinity), King Of Twilight (Echoes in Pink), Sundad (Way Station One), Dieter Spears (String Dreams), Marcator (Terra Incognita), Theresa Bentley & Dino Pacifici (Soft Winds), Urs Fuchs (Fly Lounge II), Thomas Lemmer (A Sky of Light, A Symphony Unfolding & Weightless in a Sea of Light), Parallel Worlds (Explorer).

There is a heatwave rolling up in Europe, and we can already feel it with nearly 35 C today. Which makes it a jump of about 15 degrees since last Friday. Such changes make me feel tired and worn out, so there is no place for beats on tonight's show to rock my body. We are back in space, with some of the most wonderful soundscapes to please our ears and minds. Join the ship for a spacey journey to places, where the force is still strong and soothing. A path aurally painted by Martin Stürtzer (Starfields), Ótal (Gjóta), Accasari (Crystalline), Andreas Rönnquist & rsn (within remoteness), SoulSonic (Ambient Works), Loneward (Mosaic: Singles Collection Volume 5), jarguna & Chris Russell (Wind of Dissonance), Grant Beasley (Universal Noise Systems).

Whatever you expect, but there is definitively no soccer inside this podcast. Rather, tonight it's all about repeating patterns and sequences and soundscapes that represent the modern state of Berlin School and inspired music. This style always is intreaguing to me, as it is telling an emotional sound-story from start to end, which simply does not need any words spoken or sung. Quite some journey to experience first hand, without physical travel. Always great to relish the ride. So join in and travel with me and Erik Wøllo (Pandrone), Prgm (Raccolta), Steve Roach (LA ROSA - Live in Tucson), Uwe Rechzeh (The Architecture of Dreams), Martha Rabbit (Kosmotron), Ivan Black (Black 8), DASK Music (Quirky Human), Cells Interlinked (Cold Spring Notes).

What is it like for you opening a new music album? What are you expecting? Things, you already know? Elements of surprise? Back in my youth it definitely was the latter, buying LPs by the cover and description, not knowing, what discoveries were to be made. It's quite similar still today, as I listen to so many new artists and releases. And I am more than often positively suprised by what I get to hear. As I am with all the music on tonight's edition, of course. Join in and enjoy the music by Madis (Ocean Rain), Michael Whalen (Standing Near Infinity), Harald Nies (Strange Matter), Dieter Spears (String Dreams), Conny Olivetti (Rhythm Machine), Rodrigo Passannanti (Timeless Conceptions), Kothyus (Parajes), Stephenson (Once Upon a Time), Simon Heartfield (Light Fades and Light Returns), Time Away vs Talking to Ghosts (Our Steps in the Dance).
