syndae - podcast on fine electronic music

[treibklang]

We had it beating the last weeks, so finally some time to sit comfortable, focus on your breathing going in, and going out, and let all the energy around enter your body and nerves and cells. This is a show to let your neurons softly glow in the darkness within and gain back some peace and steadiness for recharging your batteries. Enjoy the quietness and force with tracks by Chronotype Project (Passages), Marsen Jules (Shadows in Time), Poppy Nogood (Music for Mourning), Rik Johnson (Midnight Radio Compilation 63), Twoleggedzoo (Weaving a Sonic Tapestry), and Traumkraft (Seelenwanderer).

Let us be regaled by the sons of various generations of traditional electronic music tonight. It is definitely a feast of soundscapes and sequences that will carry us along. And while we are at it, do not forget the upcoming events like E-Scape providing is the chance to experience these EM geniuses live either on stage or in recording. So that is how this edition starts out with a reminder incarnated by Translunar (E-Scape 2016). Of course, there is more new and noteworthy music on the show: Alpha Wave Movement (Kinetic), Fanger & Schönwälder (Analog Overdose - The Pool COncert), Kellerkind Berlin and Wiesolator (Midnight Radio Compilation 64), Fratoroler (What!), and E-Tiefengrund (Cathedrals).

After a rather restless week I definitely need some time to power down, lean back and give my brain a gentle massage. To me, music like the one on tonight's show does a perfect job on this. Especially in combination with such pleasant evening temperatures as we have right now over here. So take some time off, an joine me for a wonderful bag of tracks by Darshan Ambient (Fire Light), Erik Wøllo and Byron Metcalf (Earth Luminous), Faber (Earthbeats), Jamuroo (Mystic Japan), Pan Electric (Conscious Pilot), and Peter Davidson (Antenna).

We are running towards summer, which is by no means reflected regarding the weather at my place. But who needs warmth and sunshine, when there is syndae in your player? Well, tonight you will find lots of new music on this show given to us by some of the best artists in traditional electronica.

Water burbling, a slight wind breezing and a cloudless sky lets the stars shine bright over the landscape. Time to listen to nature and ones inner self and let life pass by in minutes. Thoughts can be anodyne, thrilling, confusing, no matter what the environment gives you. Tonight's tracks might give you any of those, simply let your mind drift and follow whatever the tunes induce. Enjoy your time with Adeptus Mechanicus & Lutz Thuns (Cosmic Expansion), Rik Johnson (Scars), Steve Roach (Future Flows), Walter Roos (Alkinoos), North Hive (Midnight Radio Compilation 66), and Ivan Black (The Wandering).

So I asked for the summer last week? Well, it just hit me a day later and now I cannot drop clothes fast enough. My, there was no reason to prove anything, you bright hot star! Ok then, if I cannot move or otherwise would leave a water trail the music cannot be to agitated. Going a bit more quiet tonight, well, mostly at least. Have a joyful time with tracks by Altus (The Sun Will Rise Tomorrow), Rik Johnson (Scars), eyes cast down (Souls Adrift, in Disrepair), A Year in the Country (The Quietened Bunker), Bernhard Wöstheinrich & Gaston Klares (Nuu-Chah-Nulth), Perceptual Defence & Syndromeda (The End of the Universe), Delicate Aparatus (Into the Rift Volume One), Mental Health Consumer (Early Spring Midnight Walks With Us), Bite (Calle Palma), and Spleen (Midnight Radio Compilation 68).

Headphones on, volume up and dive into it. This is a lotsa fun episode, bringing back memories for the older generation (like me) and a joyful ride for anyone. Back in the days, when videos were still played from tapes, synthesizers conquered the music world and this specific kind of synth style was all around. Yeah, one might call it retro, but it still sounds cool in modern clothes. Enjoy the games with tracks by Video Void (Early Traxx), Crockett (City of Ghosts), Simon Jones (Machine Dream), Anachronist (RGB), Perturbator ft. Greta Link (The Uncanny Valley), Chase Rayment (Epicenter), Heat Pump (Miami Nights), Dynatron (Aeternus), Felikitty (New Look, Same Flavor), Cuinciu (Electro-Mechanical), Kid Ferrari (Holosex), Super Borgboy (Kill Alpha Male), and Velvet Overdrive (Velvet Overdrive EP).

We are all grown ups, so school is way back, is it not? Well, not for quite anybody, as there are many electronic musicians out there sticking to a very particular one. And those musicians bring in fresh wind in many aspects, so it doesn't become old school either. Have a consequential time with tracks by Levente (The Dowland Shores), Colin Rayment (Beyond the Aurora), Realtime (Midnight Radio Compilation 69), Michael Brückner (Muzikhala), Bouvetøya (Super High Frequency), Rudolf Heimann (Polychronos), Synchronized (Galaxy), Translunar (./.), Interstellar Sequence (Observers), Listening Center (The Quietened Bunker / Compilation).

Licensing music for broad- or podcasting is always an issue with big label music. In Germany, there only is one copyright collective organization at the moment, and one has to check for licensed music. That is why syndae eis registered to that organization allowing to play some of the music and artists they represent. With this right to play such music come some rules restricing the podcast episode. Hence, tonight's episode has a running time of only 30 minutes. Now you know why. An extended version of the show thankfully is available with the Modul 303 webradio, where you will get more music (see below for details). On this podcast, you will find tracks by the following artists, except for those marked with a star, which are radio only: DeeperNET (The Network), Alpha Wave Movement (Kinetic), Broekhuis, Keller & Schönwälder ft. Raughi Ebert & Thomas Kagermann (The Repelen EP), Bacila (Midnight Radio Compilation 69), Jean-Michel Jarre* (Electronica 2: The Heart of Noise), On Interrupt and Martins Garden* (Tears in Rain: A Tribute to Blade Runner), and Jamuroo (Ancient Journeys).

*) extended radio edition only

It does not take words or big arrangements to get emotions into music. Listening carefully to this show will offer you a variety of such feelings in a quite quiet form. And I would assume, even if you are not listening, which is one purpose of ambient music, you will still get the hints of moods offered by its vibrations. As you may have guessed, this is a show with more serene and detail loving tracks, provided by Electronic Emotions (Aural Trip), Cousin Silas & Kevin Lyons (The Time Dwellers), Marco Lucchi (Se da Lontano), Eisenlager (Dunkelreise), Elemental Noise (Abstract Knowledge), Chris Russell with Mystified (Reflections in Transit), Lutz Thuns with Askprojekt and Ashot Danielyan (Friends of Ambient 16).

Oh boy, it is definitely too hot for my Chinchilla. And if that phrase reminds you of a specific song, even that would let me burst into beads of sweat. Incredible weather, nearly freezing last week, boiling hot came this one. So, even I had all the ambient sounds around me in the last edition, I still cannot bear to go the quick and beatful material. Hence, I hope you will join me for a moderate style of easy music, with tracks by Stefan Erbe (Selectronique Debussy), John Novak (Laments of a Chess Automaton), Polyphonics (Secret Silence), A.L.O.N.E. and West Remi (45 Echoes Sounds /50), Pan Electric (Concious Pilot), Cousin Silas & Kevin Lyons (The Time Dwellers), Eagle (Midnight Radio Compilation 70), Kellerkind Berlin feat. Senseo (Midnight Radio Compilation 71), Harald Seeliger, Tim Kays (Into the Rift Volume One), and Push Against New Fakes (Immortality).

We just did a full circle. That is, I am happy to announce syndae's 360th edition, one show for every degree of the perfect two dimensional form. Now guess, where the word circus stems from? Right! And all this introduction leads us to the main topic of the show: the Electronic Circus. The festival is right ahead, one month to go, on October 1st. With quite some cool acts and of course all your musical friends are awaiting you. Some teasers, of course, you will find in tonight's edition, as there are Hans-Joachim Roedelius, Ulrich Schnauss, Metroland, BAR*, and Fryderyk Jona. Moreover, I will present fantastic music by Eckul (Codex Internnum), Digital People (Dead Orbit), and Noston (Midnight Radio Compilation 70).
