It's been more than 20 years ago now that I've been living in Berlin. And while I seldom look or go back physically, maybe for a short visit now and then, I often do so in my mind. Especially, when listening to music from the Golden Age of EM, where many of the artists being in synthesized sounds "went" to its School. There are still several artists from the old guard out there, some still producing new music. But many of the space ambient style music nowadays comes from a younger folks. And their take on Berlin style sounds, while surely referencing the ideas of the past, are fresh and current and also timeless. Join me for a mental visit to Berlin with great music by NGC 224 (Mystic Forests), Novaexperiment (Quantum Pulse), Craig Padilla & Marvin Allen (Unfolding Skies), Joerg Dankert (Back to Berlin), Paul Ellis (Room Of The Lost One), IcingWolf (Crossroads), Ivan Black (Black 3), Small Chief (Zero Movement).

Holy sequencing with

So, it's been two weeks since the Schallwelle awards have been handed to the respective winners. Tonight you will get music by (nearly) all of those proud winners in the first part of the show. Hip, hip, hooray. And in the second half of this edition you will get brand new music by more great artists, who might turn out to be the winners of awards to come. One never knows. At least, they serve excellent fresh music which fits into the early days of March, where birds are out, blossoms in sight, and trees starting to bloom. Quite a diverse bunch of styles to be heard tonight with music by Stefan Erbe (the enemy inside), Tectonia (Luna (The Moon)), Peter Mergener (Chip Meditation 2025), Árstraumur (Aurora), Martin Stürtzer (Closer to Home), Ralph Kwappenberg (Dutch Electronic Masters VII), DEE-KEY (Wild Flowers), Joao Ceser (BRIANZA), Planet Boelex (Twenty), Yakuza Jacuzzi (Wabi-Sabi)

Don't you stare but listen to

Not sure, if I am influenced by the current situatino in the world, but tonight you will get some harder beat than usual. As a musician, you know about beat machines, and the tracks of this edition make surely use plenty of those. In theory, it is a simple thing. You got rows for each instrument, be it base or snare or high hat, and fill the grid's columns where they should hit. It does sound easy, ain't it? But setting up the right beat to take the listener on a journey is quite another thing. And all the artists on tonight's editino do a great job on that. Join in to some delights in EDM by Silvio Sidelnick (Game of Faith), Pembroke (Mezcalita), NGC 224 (Starlit), Trial Presence (Z), Marc Henry (Elektr'O'Cean), 2 Guys on the Rock vs Mashtronic (EsKomo), Sascha Müller (Tabla on Tabla), Wahn (Echo Mist Light), Fruit Mûr (Keep On / Keep Off).
