Time and again I go back to the style and sound that sparked my love for electronic music; that is back in the 1970s/1980s, the so called golden age for traditional EM. Back then, it was the greats like Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, Software, and others who gave me the thrills. I still enjoy their music, also the current songs they produce. But mostly it's the "younger" generation, I enjoy to have on the show nowadays. This edition is a mixture of both with older and newer blood in a mix. Join me for wonderful timeless sounds by F.D.Project (Look in the sky), Michael Stearns & Robert Rich (Reunion of Breath & Waves), Adam Filip (The Returning Circle), Peter Mergener (Keep on Dreaming), Michael Whalen (Standing Near Infinity), Deus Astra vs Time Away (Wheel of Time), Brainwork (Hypnos).
The end of winter is near, and new releases and events are sprouting in the realm of electronic music, some of which being introduced in tonight's episode 78. Starting of with the remastered debut album of Remy, over the recent and upcoming releases by TM Solver and Von Haulshoven to rather gripping EPs by Mythos and Th.e n.d.
So far, so good ... time for episode 77, and while Schallwelle is still in my head (and on this show), there also is new exciting music inside as well. We start of with a very well known track being the title theme for the famous radio show "Schwingungen" by moderator legend Winfrid Trenkler. The artist is none other than Ashra drummer Harald Grosskopf. Moreover, tracks from brand new albums by the Ambient Circle and Harald Nies as well as magnificient music by Level Pi, Pyramid Peak, and Wim.
Correction to the cast: Satzvey Castle music festival of course takes place on April 10th!
With episode 76 you get a real winners' show. Honoring the winners of the Schallwelle Awards 2010 spiced with a little bit of my personal thanks to all of the artists, labels, media, and fans out there supporting and participating at the awards. Tonight on the playlist are the EM legend Ashra, best artist (online voting) Dithmar, best album artist (online voting) Synth.NL, best newcomer (jury voting) Meesha, and best artist and best album artist (jury voting) Spyra.
Episode 75 with yet again a mini feature. This time it's Nemesis and their just officially released new album, Gigaherz. Very recommended for when you want to really listen to music with all senses. And, of course, there is more music on this show, fresh tracks by David Clavijo and Xerxes as well as a classic Berlin School sequencer highlight given by Gert Emmens and Ruud Heij.
A nice little feature on tonight's episode number 74, bringing to you the delightful sounds of computerchemist and his fresh release, Aqual Measure, an electronic and electric treasure for all fans of current electronic music. And there is more superb material on the show tonight in form of two enthralling tracks by Rainbow Serpent and URL.
