syndae - podcast on fine electronic music

[treibklang]

It's space time! Well, at least for most of tonight's edition, where we will visit some of the famous space ships produced on earth. Well, in film and literature that is. Are you a science fiction or fantasy fan? It's fascinating that people are so intrigued by the stars and the universe and maybe alien life forms, while we still do not know about many places on earth. And while we definitely are no species, someone would like to meet, are we? Now, before getting to dark or sinister, let's better focus on what we love, which is great ambient and electronic music. Some of those aural wonders you will get with music by Claude9 (Chords of Love). Stan Dart (Murinsel 7 - Travel Stories). Ambient Indigo, Time Away, Wane of Summer. Progeny-1, Ambient Light, Hellweed, Talking to Ghosts, Helsinki Project (Interstellar Engines), Ivan Black (Some Refugees From Suburbia).

Up next week is April fools' day. Are you in for making fun of people? By definition, it is the day of the year where practical jokes take over and one gets targeted with pranks, which sometimes seem real or get very close to reality. For some country, 2025 may have started as a fool's year, and may stay so for some while (no orange bun intended). But I am not going into politics here. This is a place of joy and fun and should stay so for everyone. So, back to the start. Do you do pranks? Or know of good ones? If so, let me know in the comments. I am always up for a little joke, even I might not look like it. On the other hand, I really like cool and great and modern electronic music. And this is what you will get in tonight's editon with tracks by Urs Fuchs (Wolkenfee), Stefan Erbe (Metamorphosys), AeTopus (iota), Simon Heartfield (The State Of Social Movement), AMPTEK (Pianeta Ephedrina Volume Due), Grosso Gadgetto & Brainquake (Distorted Planet), Feralia Planitia (Hyperphantasmic), niteffect (aztec), Steve Joy (Hatchback), Tonewulf (The Heavy), B. Ashra & Ricky Deadking (Live at U-Site Fusion 99).

While there are storms happening in the economic world, we gear down a lot and go for some serenity in this edition. Wouldn't it be nice to have humans be united and care for their kind and each other instead of looking for one's own advantage? Well, maybe not for some people. I don't know. Maybe life would be boring that way. I like boring, though. Na, not really. I prefer challenging sounds and musical journeys, for example. That's why there are no drones on syndae. To me, music has to have some kind of structure to it. Something that tickles my ears and my brain. Join me, won't you? For some cool ambient and related music by Erik Wøllo (Where the River Widens), Sine (Impuls), Level Pi (Elektronische Klänge), Cousin Silas & aka:man (Cousin Silas & aka:man), Orchestra Indigo (Hearing Visions), Loneward (Gossamer Wings of Illusion), Blue Is Nine (So Far from Home), Dino Pacifici (Beyond The Solar Influence), sevensy (one2one), Wellengärtner (Movements).

Yeah, I know, it might be a bit cheesy or rather eggy. But for tonight, right before eastern, I picked some easy eggs for you. So here we have some sound bunnies to please your ears and mind. For this, I picked eggstraordinary artists. And while the life outside seems to go nuttier each day, I hope you find some ease and comfort within the 60 minutes of pleasure sounds.

So, last weekend many of you celebrated the tradition of the resurrected egg-giving easter bunny... erm... I am sure to be confused a bit. But it surely was traditional. And we are on for tonight to enjoy something traditional electronic music, that I am sure about. It was back in the 80s, when I discovered this specific style of instrumental electronic music for myself and fell in love with it. Of course, lots has changed since back then, but there are still some "descendants" and the like who evolved from that aera and built upon it. Not only that, but there also are some of the early pioneers of this style alive and kicking and still creating great music. Come in to a new edition of this podcast and enjoy the great sounds of Peter Mergener (Sky Space Bar III), GROBEK (Grevelingen), Syndromeda (Serendipity), A Collection of Notes (Last Flowers of Autumn), Conny Olivetti (Rearranging the legs of lady Jane), Andreas Davids (Weltraum), Paul Ellis (Warmth From Other Suns), Andy Pickford (Expurgations Vol. 2).

Tradition always shines on

On this weeks list of todos were quite some interesting things. Had a lot of work at home to do and in my job as well. As always, the time you plan for finishing a job most often does not suffice. Or is this just me? Well, on some point in progress I encountered an issue that let me to rethink the whole approach. So it was not only the weather outside getting warmer, which is nearing the 30 C mark on some days. But the inner heat also rose, as there are deadlines to meet. Well, wanna go for a cool ride? I do, as I need some cooling down. And what better to do with some really great music. On the menu tonight, you will find fantastic sounds by DEMOKRATIE (2 + 1), GROBEK (Grobek 2: Grevelingen), Divine Matrix (Rise of the Sand Gods), Phaeleh (Dark Sky), Stefan Erbe (Metamorphosys), niteffect (copan), The Laconic (Conic Sections), Weldroid (Painted City), Parallel Worlds (Modular Stories), Tonewulf (The Heavy), Reichenhall (kollektion eins).

No, this is not the death star in some kind of invisibility cloak. Tonight, we have wonderful bubbles of colourful soundscapes for you waiting in this edition. And rightly so, as this week was fully packed with work related stuff for me. I need some rest, and I hope you are with me. Soap bubbles are fascianting objects. Especially in their play in light, where lots of little rainbows appear into being on their surface. Their look does sooze me a bit as well as they amaze me. Much like the songs you will get tonight being served by Vamadeva (Secret and Mystery III), Krzysztof Kurkowski (Synthesizer Stories), Steve Roach & Vidna Obmana (Cavern of Sirens), Dave Luxton ft Nacre & Michelle Qureshi (Lights Appearing), Ramón Sánchez (The Cardinal Points - North Part 2), Joerg Dankert (through the avalanche of time), Reichenhall (kollektion eins), Tony Gerber (Plank and Strings), jarguna (The Truth Lies Beyond).

Sounds. They are all around us. Some squeak, some beep, some bug you, some you don't hear anymore. Imagine sitting at the beach, where the waves slowly wash over the shore. To me, this is joyful and relaxing. Or imagine being at a dwell, where water slowly pours into the early creek. This might really animate you to, well, err, wanna pee ... Ok, bad example. As with ambient music, there are sounds you normally barely listen to, at least not consious. If there is some cool rhythm, you might enjoy it. And if the accompanying sounds make you groove, you can relax. Like with the outstanding tracks on this edition, being provided to you by Ian Boddy & Erik Wøllo (Transmissions), Nettaiya ft Yuko Motoki (Rising Sunset), Thomas Lemmer & Lukas Midub (Perspectives), Anna B May (Everything Will Be Alright), Tuula Martin (Urban Lullabies), David Mash (Back To My Roots), Klangstein (Echoes - 25 Years Klangstein), Moki Mcfly (Divin(e)tion: Music in the key of zero), Frechbax ft Alex Rutschmann and Psychoz (Sonic Fractals).

Yes, we are back. A short forced break, so it's the return of syndae, but also the return to the golden age of sequencing with this edition. This music is still one of the drivers for EM, serving some sounds that come in waves and simply pull you with them into the wonderful world of aural colours and natural rhythm of life. I think it's the ever steadiness of change that grabs me each time, when a sequence kicks in and takes over the beat of my thinking and feeling. And tonight is no difference with the great music by Robert Schroeder (Mosaique. Edit 2025), Vanderson (2055), DASK Music (Transitions (2025)), Harald Gramberg (Sequences), Yakuza Jacuzzi (Space Race), Ivan Black (Book List).

This was definitely one beat speed week for me, at least at work with so many stuff to do. And all of the tasks were very urgent, of course. It's always at the end of the week or deadlines, when the need to finish up things suddenly appear on ones doorstep. And, thus, the choice of music was between some ultra ambient to cool down and some body moving sounds to power oneself out. For tonight I chose the latter, so join me for a great selection of electronic dance and body music by Decode Blue (Cruise The Groove), Omel & Rising Galaxy (Cosmicleaf. Mixtape 003 (Psychill)), xols (sharp and chispi), db-Maui (this feeling), One Dub Connection & David Laake (Sonic Fractals), Falling Bytes (Civil war), Morgen Wurde, Tis, Tetsuroh Konishi (Erwuchs), granlab/dml (movements).

Several years ago, I was co-funding a movie. Well, it was a crowdfunded flick with the sole purpose of making a cranzy movie thought out by a crazy mind. Now, if your life would be a movie, what part of the script would you alter? Would it be a great idea to remove some actions or hesitaions of yours that let to unfortunate situations? Or would cutting them make you become a different person? But more important, what soundtrack would accompany your life? There is always music in a modern movie, is there not? It supports the emotional part of the story. So here are some suggestions for the movie of your life. Great stuff by Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist), Holland Phillips (A Sense of Distance), Tuula Martin (Urban Lullabies), Time Away (Osirian Wave), Der Bischof (Garden of Perdition), Janne Hanhisuanto (Yume), Art Of Infinity (Cinematic Audio 1), Gabríel Ólafs (Polar), Martin Herbst (Mystic Moments), Phaeleh (Fear of Silence), Volker Rapp (Blade Runner 2099).

Sunshine and peace is all I need currently. Being quite busy in my head and life being a bit unpredictable, it's those quieter moments that I relish a lot. Calming body and soul for while and let other things be what they are. It would be great if one could simply close one's eyes and the crazy world would go away. Well, it does not. But to me it seems important to find those silent spots in life to not explode and get mad yourself. Here you get an hour of time with ambient sounds, and I hope not to be of too much annoyance in between. Enjoy the music by Carl Lord (Illuminated Expanse), Dashmesh (Teletai), Ambiente Solstice feat. Dashmesh (The World Above The Clouds), Blue Is Nine (Tall Pines), John Scott Shepherd & Jamie Zarfas (Distant Moon), Karl Schoenberg (Spectre), Tim Didymus & Foster Neville (Ulla), Telson (Drums Along The Ambient River Part 1), Cousin Silas (Drums Along The Ambient River Part 2).

There is a lot of heat out there. Well, I am not only talking about the weather, which is said to go up to 36 C next week. And I am not build for hot weather, I tell you that. And we do not have some AC around, either. Will be fun, or not. Beside that, the world is going crazier each day, building up another kind of heat. Last week, we had some nice and quiet ambient to get some mind rest. To kind of continue the more relaxing scenery, this week we will go in the chillout direction and enjoy excellent peaceful music by Stefan Erbe (Metamorphosys), AE van Elst Projects (One), Klangwelt (Second Nature), Glint (The Beginning), Erothyme & Kursten Brewer (Tea Sessions), Achillea (Cinema in My Head - The World of Visible Sound), Thomas Lemmer & Lukas Midub (Perspectives), Side Liner & Aviron (Cosmicleaf Mixtape 003 (Psychill)), iRoadie ft.

Are you nuts?! Whoever send the heatwave these days must be. But the uncountable number of degrees match with the world's recent politics as well. And that is all over the world. So, was everything better back in the days? Maybe not. But some really good comes from those golden days back last century, and that is the music inspiration, which I most times mention as traditional EM. And from those roots sprung many more cool sounds and sequence explorers. Like the ones you can enjoy with this edition. Take a seat and some good headphones to join me for cool stuff by Peter Mergener (Cinema in My Head - The World of Visible Sound), Altus (Terraform), Fusion of Elements (3MIT-TIME), Eagle (Synth. Music) (The narrow path), Planet of the Arps (Planet of the Arps 2), Hari Maia (Universalis), Ivan Black (The Moonshine Boys).
