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).
Hope you missed the show! Back on schedule wishing you all the best for the New Year, welcome to the first edition of syndae in 2012. And we start off with some brand new material tonight not narrowed to a specific style, presenting tracks by Ambient Anonymous, Das Kraftfuttermischwerk, and The X-Structure. And finally, if you didn't know, yet, it's time for the German Schallwelle awards. Voting is open and you'll get a great track of Frank van Bogaert as a dainty on him playing live at the Schallwelle event.
Is it just me or has 2011 passed very quickly? However, it was a great year musical vise, bringing lots of pleasure to my ears with many, many releases in electronic music and related genres. Reflecting upon the year, syndae had broadened its fields quite a bit, and I of course hope you liked the increased diversity in styles and sounds. Well, now it's time for taking a rest. As a closing episode, like in the past three years, I am happy to present another two-part special featuring great artists with great tracks especially made or provided for christmas time. Lots of fine songs await your ears for listening well, with more than an hour of pleasing music in the family edition and another more than 40 minutes of slightly more challenging tracks in the mature edition. I would not like to miss any of these fabulous contributions kindly given for your fun only by BatteryDead, Cousin Silas, Glenn Main, Happiness in Aeroplanes, Janne Hanhisuanto, Kebu, Klangzaun, Michael Brückner, Michael Shipway, Nothing New Music, Psicodreamics, Remy, Steen Jorgensen, Synth.nl, Uwe Reckzeh, Von Haulshoven, WaveWorld, and Wounds.
The final regular show for 2011 is up, and it's become a rather traditional one. And despite it being the last, there are quite a bunch of new releases that just want to come and visit you and your music player. First on my show, then in your shopping basket. Well, this is an XL edition again, as I simply had to play all the great tracks. So enjoy the extra time with music by BatteryDead, Erez Yaary, Justin Vanderberg, Level Pi, Sebastien Marchal, TMA, Yog-Sothoth, and as a teaser for the upcoming special, a closer by Brainwork.
I'm looking at a quite good filled playlist of contemporary electronic music tonight. Some tracks of tonight's show or the according albums need more than one spin to get into them. So listen carefully tonight and enjoy an XL episode with Enso, Mizati, Noston, Pete Farn, Sigmafly, and Transcend with Time.
It's getting colder out here in Europe, although some mild days pleased us lately. Time to put in some hot sounds, sequences, and rhythms from some of the best current electronic musicians. If you like the sounds of the golden age of EM, this show will drive you home. Enjoy intriguing scapes of pleasure with tracks by Picture Palace music, Pyramid Peak, Space Station, and Triple S.
