Now, what is it that made me feel a little bit easier this week? Maybe it's the Spring-view with all its green and yellow colours. And it is slightly getting warmer and sunnier over here. I am feeling quite positive these days, except for that screaming pink car outside, which blinds my eyes. Being in such a mood, of course the selection of music for tonight's edition follows the lighter weight of life. Join me for some easy and beautiful songs by Mativetsky, Amiri & Pagé (Metamorphose), Andrew Schoen & Joe Nutter (Live & Otherwise), Bernd Scholl (Seasons Will Change), Dino Pacifici (Future Noir), Ambient Ballroom (Between the Cakes), Cass Anawaty (Continuance), Projekt Ich vs Talking to Ghosts (In the Fire), Øystein Q. Jørgensen (The March equinox 2026), Vin Downes & Tom Eaton (Until the Light Was Gone), Steve Orchard (A Sudden Rush of Calm), Glint (Hope), yttriphie (Solipsis).
If this edition has anything to do with easter, it is some of tonight's artists live eastern from my place. No, it's quite about beatiful music tonight, so stash your eggs and pick up your bunny for a dance. We'll have a rhythmic ride along with tracks by Plasterdog and Smartfish (Pindaric), moonbooter (Live 4), Mateo Relief (Midnight Radio 37), Vadim Kotinskiy (Mood), Faris (Pause), and Abiz Sonko (Markarian 421).
Last weekend I enjoyed the festivities of the Schallwelle award prize givings with about 300 artists, makers, and friends of electronic music. A real fun to meet all those people again and have nice talks all evening long. So, still being in a happy mood, tonight's choice of tracks surely reflects this, although it's rather quietly sounding. Ah, well, simply take half an hour and listen to the show, very nice tracks enlisted by Sebastien Marchal (Goldfish), Forrest Fang (Letters to the Farthest Stars), Altocirrus (Members of AmbiOfusion - Forever Together), Curious Inversions (Schoolyard Crows), and Mythos (Jules Verne Forever).
Spring, yeah, finally! And it started with a (partial) eclipse of the sun in this part of the hemisphere. And if spring fever cought you, check out tonight's episode providing a vast bunch of electronica with tracks by Xenoton (Traveller), Exit Project (The Past is the Future), Angström Institute (Origin of Ghosts), Harald Nies (Horizon), Yunas (Yunas), Beat.dowsing (Rising Current), tonblende (Zeitreise), and DFRNT and Nearfield (Phaeton Chronicles 2).
Do you believe in souls? Strange question, you might say. But having a soul seems not obvious and especially not very scientific. Nevertheless, tonight's show presents music for your soul. Beautiful scapes floating and tickling all along, calm but still breathtaking. So, find a nice and cosy place, lean back and dive into the aural scenes by Marsen Jules (The Empire of Silence), FlatOpus (Melancholy Monk), Leniad (Threads), Harald Nies & Wolfproject, Keving Lyons (Night Visions), Amotken (Kuro), and Numina & Zero Ohms (Broken Stars Through Brilliant Clouds).
Tonight's a special episode, looking ahead at the upcoming E-Day festival in Oirschot, Netherlands on April 18th. It's also special as it is a call to action, as we are close to the action date for the event, that is March 12th to decide upon the event taking place. And to make sure, the more tickets are booked the more likely E-Day will continue to present great artists in an enjoyable environment. So best go for it as soon as you can. And to give you a tiny help, you will get the full range of live acts of E-Day on this show. These are Peter Nooten, Filterkaffee (Schönwälder & Rothe), Baltes & Erbe, Skoulaman, and Air Sculpture. Great stuff for a good price.
