Are you up for some adventure? Well, soundwise you will get music that definitely fits into the realms of fantasy and beyond tonight. Definitely some melodic and harmonic treats are up. There is the story that Hobbits don't do adventures. Never ever. Or do they? Well, I think, live itself proves to be one interesting ride one could call adventure. Who you meet, what you experience, where you go, and what you are listening to. So, join me to some very inspiring rides on this edition with outstanding treasures by Roberto Sass and Time Away & Elvya (Path of the Roses), Betageist (Luminous Exile), the-motyw (Unless have a man in a man), Michael Whalen (Brokenhearted Lopsided Blues), AO Music (Otherness), Allen Pitts (My Tribute to Jeanne), Erothyme feat. Kirk Kubicek & Jessica Sirena (Life Sidereal), ELEON (Hidden Kingdom), Richard Anthony Bean (Victopia), Stefan Erbe (Selectronisch Vol 1).

Spring seems to be the first high season of the year for concerts in electronic music (maybe in other genres, too?). So many concerts and festivals are waiting at the doors, it seems difficult to decide where to go. The bigger one is E-Day, of course, which is sold out by today. But there are several others. like Naar de Koppen this Sunday, the endlos elektro sounds in Krefeld in two weeks, or the 20 years of Broque records end of this month, to also name some smaller events. For the latter two there are two teasers to be found in this edition of syndae. After April, there are more to come. For German readers (or Google translate users) there is a calendar to be found at empulsiv.de, a website I run with friends featuring information on electronic music. Check it out if you like. And now, join me for some great rhythmic music by Veelargo (Monoliths And Greetings), Hyrn (Live at Schallwelle 2024), Alec Troniq (Early Reflexion), Collagist (Pan), Terrapin (IDMf Retrospective Vol. 1), Clemens Acidus (Summer Sunrise), Sternenspringer (2022), Erothyme (Life Sidereal), Radium88 (See Saw), Dave Schoepke (Sun will follow), Conny Olivetti (Aviation).

So what about travelling through space? There are many science fiction movies and series taking us to a journey through the vast emptiness of the universe, most often than not meeting some alien species out there. Or simply looking for some other place to live. But what draws us to space? Is it the modern equivalent of the seas? Could be. Starting on a journey into the unknown, eager to discover new worlds (i.e., continents) and new species (i.e., foreign people). Well, at least it seems a fascinating thought to travel beyond the known. Whatever might await you. Some might not be so keen to travel, but there is always the part of us that travels in thought. And here you get some cool music to accompany you on that trip, given to us by S1gns Of L1fe (Particle Acceleration), David Wright (Fade), Carbonates On Mars (Quadrants 1: Part 1), Temporal Waves (Temporal Waves), Dirk Schlömer (Travels to the Untold), DesuExSounds (Continual), State Azure (Valkyrja).

Yes, I definitely do like some excitement. But I also relish those more quieter moments in live, where mind and body can rest and find some inner peace. What makes me wonder, for example, is that many people hate getting up in the morning and having to leave the safety of their bed. At sleep, one does nothing. Well, one may dream strange stuff (like losing and searching for something, a ring, a wallet, a mobile,... a toilet... err, well). But essentially, you are at complete rest. And still, getting up and back in action is annoying. Humans are a strange species in so many ways. Whatever. I was talking about peace of mind. And what better to do getting there than listening to excellent ambient music. Like you will get tonight with tracks by David Helpling & Jon Jenkins (A Treasured World), ELEON (Hidden Kingdom), Anna B May ft. Vince Forwards (In Another Life), Altus (Solastalgia), Synaptism (Environmental Ambience), Pennine Project (Ice Heart Father), Elvya and Sonic Bodhi (Tales of Dragon Days), Cousin Silas (Festive 3), Deepspace (The Black Orchid Galaxies), Ivan Black (Penumbra).

It's always great, if you get things done. This week was very productive work-wise, several topics fininalized and done in a satisfying manner. Another great thing is, if supporting customers and colleagues works out and gets you up to speed with issues, resolving problems fast and steady. All these good things give positive energy and let you run on steroids, so to say. So, yes, well a good week. And better than the last ones. The question is, where to go with all the energy sampled along the way and not burst into flames. Well, one way is to work out hard. So here I have music to go with it that will make your body move and spend some energy. Enjoy the sounds of Sternenspringer (2022), Elysian Underground (Subplant Vol 2), Dub Spencer & Trance Hill (Trance Plane/Fugu LSD Remixes), Andy Morello (Electrical Emotions), Harrison Downes (Bleed For Me), Aerodroemme (Saturn Crisis), Bunshi (Plants), Dan-X (Lost Tapes Volume I), Marie Wilhelmine Anders (Frozen Music).

Do you watch TV? Or are you a cinema person? Since streaming, I barely go for the cinema anymore. But I do not watch linear TV as much as before, either. TV and cinema both tie me to specific times, which does not make much sense for me anymore. Series and movies on demand are my go to nowadays. What has not changed, though, is my love for soundtracks. Be it for TV shows or films, cinematic music has always fascinated me to listen to. At least the instrumental ones. And over time, those overlap very often with electronic music. I think, it is the emotion transported by this kind of music that captures me. What about you? Do you tend to listen to the music while watching a movie? Maybe even more closely than paying attention to the story? Happens to me sometimes. But not when listening to a show like tonight, which is dedicated to cinematic and so inspired music. Enjoy great tracks by Gleisberg (Secret and Mystery II), Progeny -1, Talking to Ghosts, Helsinki Project, Andawan, Promethex, Wane of Summer, Time Away, and Roberto Sass (Ten Towns), Duston O'Halloran (1001), Sebastien Guerive (Obscure Clarity).

So I hope you will not be irritated tonight, as my voice might sound a bit different for a mild cold. And it's celebration time. Not for me having a cold but as a retrospect on last weekend, where the Schallwelle Award ceremonies were held. The German award for electronic music greats was delivered with an excellent show, accompanied with music by Hyrn, Jörg Dankert, and Detlef Keller. Lot's of nice and fun talks during the evening, and very happy faces for those being nominated and those receiving the cool trophies. Music by all the winners on tonight's show. So you will get tracks by Terminus Void (Apeiron), Rike Casper (Schallplatte 24 & Stimmen in der Luft), Ron Boots (Alone on Stage), Stefan Erbe (Genesys 23), Gunnar Spardel (The Fade to Afterlife), Martin Stürtzer (Circular Oscillations), Gandalf (Eartheana).

Another storm is up and going to have fun with the trees and bushes. And with wheelie bins, of course. It's always a bit funny to see them dancing on the road. Mostly in small and slower steps, depending on their state of filling. Fittingly, you will get slow but driving music on tonight's edition. Which focuses on chill-out and relaxation. The main reason behind was to have some calmer music for driving up to the Schallwelle award event tomorrow, on Saturday 24th. So, if you come, this might be some good road music not caring for those annoying drivers out there. Well, take a nice and joyful trip with tracks by KS|Optionica (No Sense [D-Fried Remixes]), Overthrive (Uncharted Realms), Anna B May (In Another Life Remixes), iGL & Alecho (Revolution), Das Omikron (an Atmosfield), Sulk Rooms (Werra Foxma CENTRAL), Sequentialwork (SequentialTrax Vol. 2), Janne Hanhisuanto (Cosmic Dreams), Tim Susa (Four Signs), Dub Spencer & Trance Hill (Trance Plane/Fugu LSD Remixes).

Yes, I am definitely getting old. My brain was some weeks in the future, when I compiled tonight's edition. Planned with music that has to wait for a while, as it is up for release later in March. And I do not want to spoil it that early. But there is so much great music to listen to that it was an easy go to compile a new show for tonight. And it's great stuff that I found on my drive waiting to be heard by you dear listeners. Sequencing galore, I would call tonight's show. Several known names, with great space ambient or Berlin School inspired sound stories to relish. Join me for some great aural dinner with music by Cartas de Japón (Santa Clara), MiDi BiTCH (Sonic Fiction), Hollan Holmes (Sacred Places), Oscar Postma (Sequentiqua), Syndromeda (Liftoff to Infinity), von Haulshoven (the ambiland trilogy - Part one, two & three).

Time to be energized. An exciting week screams for exciting music. Yes, it was a busy and stressful week, but lots of interesting things piling up. So I had two rather chilly shows the past weeks, which definitely brought some rest to one's mind. So there is the need for some more powerful sounds to get in the mood for coming actions. Sounds vague? Well, it should be. Relating to projects I am working on, on events to come, and people to meet again after a long while. But, hey, let me stop with the non sensical talk and get into great music by Progeny-1 (Neria), Conny Olivetti (Oblique Stroke XR40), Ivan Black (Terminal Beach), Tom Bragl (Regainable), the-motyw (Unless have a man in a man), Judith Juillerat (Anti f😮rm vol. 10), Transient Visitor (TV3), Fnordism (Unknown Colours), Thomas Wagner, Rainer Frey, Bernhard Wöstheinrich (Polyphony Performance Series 002), Zonevreemd + Sai (To stare blankly in these empty spaces).

Modern technology allows for interesting structures in buildings. For several years, creating taller and taller buildings seemed a trend. Nowadays, it's more strange looking forms that can be found in places. The development of stable and still free shapeable material and tools surely are one reason. The advancements in thinking and computing may be another. To me, the same holds for electronic music. New tools, materials and advancements in mathematics allow for more flexible, faster and rethought approaches on creating sounds and structures. The latest of these may be enhancements by AI technology. The main ingredient though, to me, is human inspiration that makes a song a good one. Many of those on the show tonight with tracks by Krakenkraft (Sononymic), Phono Input (The Intrusion of Daylight), DesuExSounds (The Four Elements - Fire: Volume 2), Bouwakanja (Prototype), Marie Wilhelmine Anders (Frozen Music), Kilmarth (Sixteenth Listen), Dirk Schlömer (Smart Bombs), Ishin Denshin (Right To Survive), Tales From the Sleeping Land (23 / 24).

Not sure why. But it's a time to be grateful to have such a great family around. Luckily, I stay away from all the gift-making madness so it really is peaceful. And so is the music tonight. At least most of it (haha). Join me for the final editon for 2023 tonight with great tracks by Bryan Lubeck (Welcome Winter), Wane of Summer, Roberto Sass, Promethex, Tuuligan, and Ambient Indigo (Christmas Ambient), Beckett (It's Christmas Time!

And I am surely not talking about christmas classics. It's Berlin School and related styles, interpreted by older and younger artists alike. So I encourage you lot to join me tonight for some very cool tracks by Redshift (BERLIN - A Tribute Album for Mark Shreeve), Uwe Reckzeh (Schallplatte 26), AeTopus (Cup), Anantakara (Across A Veiled River), B.

Right, it's only one month now and many of you guys will celebrate christmas. But there is more such celebrations around the corner, like Hanukkah, or Kwanzaa, and surely more. And, no, I am not giving you early season's songs. On the contrary, we will go quite progressive and partially rocky tonight. I might do a festive show, though, right on December 22nd. Several such tracks came in lately, and I am aware of at least one new album to come with related music. I am open to suggestions and submissions, of course. And by saying so, a disclaimer as follow up: there is no guarantee for podplay. Well, we will see what happens. But for tonight, I am going all in with excellent and cool tracks by Agitation Free (Momentum), Passage (Oblique), Gingerbass (Lake City Kid), Bernhard Wöstheinrich (B-Dubs), Hildegard von Binge Drinking (Echo der Delfine), The Dead Robotz (Electric Mangrove), Simon Langdon and Polytunnel (Attack Release Volume One), Phono Input (Sidereus Nuncius).

I am not sure, where you celebrate Halloween these days. Actually, here it is a religious holiday. Nevertheless, it has become tradition already for children to run around in strange dresses and collect sweets. Well, not on my door. And I don't think they would like to collect fruits or vegetables. But ok, if they have fun going for it, I don't mind. A good invention these days is tracking of delivery, so you know it's not a bunch of children at the door but the delivery guy with your parcel or pizza. Wouldn't want to miss them. Well, no Halloween music tonight, but we stomp a bit with the tracks by Jong (Venus), Elysian Underground (A Retro Futuristic Collage), Obscenity State and Femmepop (you are the fabric), Adrien d'Elzius (Silent Revolution), Synaptyx (The Sentinel), Ryota Saito ft Halted Instant (Gentiana Scabra), Ben Rama and Daäna & Brendan Lawless (100 Diamonds), Dardi ft Crennwiick (Addict).

When I was younger, vacation always was some kind of exploration. Checking out foreign landscapes. Taking sightseeing tours on an island. And, most important, enjoying all kinds of food from various origins. Well. Nowadays, only the last one remained. Otherwise it's more about relaxing, chilling, and finding some peace of mind in beautiful landscapes not far away. Am I getting old? Sure. Longings shift, my eyes have seen quite an amount of things. No need to travel as far and as much anymore. Less speed and more food.. err... serenity, I mean. Hence, off we go with a bit slower music tonight.

Yes. It's movie time. And while they are down with new films in the US due to their strike, syndae is not and I took the opportunity to pick some nice electronic based cinematic music, which partially actually is from movies. I don't know about you, but to me movies without a good soundtrack lacks a lot of emotional support and feel. And musical wise, soundtracks most often combine the classical way of composition and modern style of sound works. Can you tell I'm a fan? Ok, join me tonight for cool music by Christopher Caouette (Tale Of The Oakenwish), Hans Zimmer, Adam Lukas & James Everingham (Frozen Planet II), The Pull of Autumn (Beautiful Broken World), Edouard Ferlet (PIANOïD²), Potsch Potschka (Fantasia Iberica), Gleisberg (Floating In Your Soul), Time Away (Riven), CIALYN (OMEGA), State Azure (The Terminator), Kebu (Live in Oslo), Gandalf (Eartheana).

Past, present or future? In electronic music this barely is a question, as most of the creations are timeless. Since its discovery in the last century many variations and re-creations saw its light, inspired by the old ones or built on them with new ideas. It is amazing for the communities on ambient and electronic music built over time and how still today people relish the sounds of the past years and enjoy their re-inventions by younger artists, who you could also name to be explorers of timeless arts. This edition has a mix of both brand new and past music, and they are amazing and interesting all at once. Enjoy tracks by Martin Stürtzer (Circular Oscillations), Pabellón Sintético (Mies van der Rohe's dreams), Mario Schönwälder (The Eye Of The Chameleon), Neuronium (Signature), Alex Ringess (Transient Symmetry), Oscar Postma (Moventique Part 2 and 3), Parallel Worlds (Applied Maths), Bernd-Michael Land (Live in Eindhoven).

And you should definitely join the festival to experience a flock of excellent acts on stage. It's been 15 years ago, when I first had the pleasure to announce the Circus Festival for the first time. Actually, one of the reasons this podcast was started at all. And what a nice festival it has become. After Corona hiatus, the Clown is back on stage and with him come excellent musical guests. So, don't hesitate and join the show in Hamm on September 9th. Meet the fans, meet me, meet wonderful musicians. This show starts with most of the live acts from the show, followed by more great and fresh electronic music. Listen to Steve Baltes (Bochum Sky), Wellenfeld (Eiswelten), r.roo (mirroor), Ströme (Nr. 2), Hyperion V (Accretion Disc), Oblique, Distant Worlds (Transient Symmetry), Reticle (Fifteenth Listen), r.roo (shilly-shally).

What is the purpose of life? Does it even have one that will satisfy the human thought process? Well, maybe, life is just something that happens by chance. Which indeed makes the earth quite unique. At least, so far as we know. And yet, it seems difficult to stick with the idea that life just is and has no deeper meaning. Why is that? It would be such an easy thing to live, be happy to live, enjoy life. It could spare us of quite some struggle, or wouldn't it? Well, I have no clue as well, but there is some great and beautiful music out there to relish life. Like given to us tonight with tracks by Progeny -1 (Gods of Egypt), K37 (Gods of Egypt), Skunk Baxter (Speed of Heat), Steen Chorchendorff Jorgensen (Only for a Short Time), Samir Bodhi (Memories of Empathy), Urs Fuchs (Contact Space), Tom Eaton (Weathering), Wane of Summer (Obsidian), Robert Simon Thoma (Krk), David Wright & Carys (Oracle).

A life's journey on

We are travelling towards the exciting second season of music events. The next bigger stop for EM fans in Europe is the Electronic Circus Festival. Yes, it is back after some years of starving and it also is kind of a reboot with a new location. Still providing great artists like Ströme as headliner. But of course there are more very interesting festivals coming up. For our German speaking fans, you may have a look at the empulsiv Infozine. But even if you do not understand German, you might find the event calendar somewhat helpful. Tonight we relish events and of course other great electronic music on the show with tracks by Ströme (No. 2), Bernd-Michael Land (Begegnungen), John Louis Kluck (Astro Voyages), M3NASH (Declive), Oscar Postma, MyklH (The Four Elements: Water - Volume 2), Jingoba Electric & Wellengärtner (Live at Güterhallen Solingen), Ivan Black (Sea Of Fluid Mercury).

It's been an essential part of the syndae culture to have music from many sources on the show. Especially the rise of the netlabels back in the day gave lots of great material to showcase that music must not be commercial to be good. Since a while, these labels celebrate themselves each year on July 14th having the Netlabel Day. Which, this year, was about a week ago. What better time to pick up the celebration and give you a tiny selection of what to find on their website. Enjoy tracks by Me As In You (Neon), Sensor II (Magnatune Sampler 2023), Lovin (Netlabel Day 2023: True Electronic Underground Music), Cairo Braga (The Front Balcony), OKAM (Dub Noir), Mental Health Consumer (Everything at Once), Guska (5 Years a Goose), H-M O (CC-BY IV), Drehkommando (Mülheimer Nacht 2023), Secret Archives of the Vatican (Herosys Dub), Orgonon Sound Machine (The Ashes), DJ Nightnoise (Netlabel Day 2023 Techno Warriors).
