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).

So I had a very busy week. And I am not even sure I make it in time to promote this show this Friday. But, hey, it's a podcast and you can listen to it whenever you like. For this edition I thought about going a bit more ambient, but not too close. So you will find lots of treats on this show that are in between the worlds, and of course fine electronic music it is, too. Time to discover exciting sounds and uncover the beautiful sound of spacey ambient lifting the aural lids. Enjoy the night with tracks by Bernd-Michael Land (Begegnungen), Jim Ottaway (Infinite Universes), Mike Hans STEFFL (Calaboose Islands), Johan Agebjörn (Subtracted Soundscapes), Sensory++ (Introversum), Solitaire (Plains And Skies), Walter Fini & Shane Beck (The Open Door), M3NASH (Declive).

Yours, Stefan
It's festival time. Well, nearly. less then a month to go before the incredible clown is back. I mean, the Electronic Circus is opening its door again. 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).

Are you going on vacations? Well, many of my colleagues are leaving soon for summer to cherish some nice and lovely place out there. My wife and I were gone already and had some relaxing and joyful time at the Baltic Sea. Lovely weather, lovely environment and a lot of fun and peace and ice cream, of course, loads of ice cream. Isn't it fascinating how many ice cream parlours are in places people stay for holidays? Well, not all of them have good stuff, I can tell you that from experience (hahaha). So, what's vacation and ice cream have to do with tonight's music? Actually, nothing. You will get great tracks, though, provided to us by Atom Brigade (Atom Brigade), Collagist (Vjetnam), MigloJE (Elements 2), Genda (INTENT 2023: Kinetikos), Adrian Brewer (INTENT 2023: Eudaimonia), Evidence of a Struggle (Evidence of a Struggle), Conny Olivetti (Never Give Up), Altus (Descender), Firnwald (Black Fortuna), Mitoma | Weldroid (MXW II).

Ambient, Chill and now... Dance, of course. We are picking up more speed this week with some beats that may move your legs, if you want it or not. Well, we are not going full techno, but definitely dancable stuff. A quite sad closing though, as we lost one of the fun guys these days with Anfrando Maiola aka Koto. From his music I would conclude he would like you to live happily ever after and dance your name in the sand. Join in for beefier beats by Counterfly ft. Alec Troniq (The Only Land Where), DXN and Toxic Derwish (INTENT 2023: Kinetikos), Adriano Canzian (Aggressiva), Mar io (Choplifter), Tomchilla & mexCalito (The Cave), Patrick 9000 (Endless Journey), Elrox (Selveste Direktøren), Koto (Greatest Hits & Remixes).

Did you ever travel in a balloon? I'm not sure I would do it. Too afraid, I think. It's only some hot air that keeps one from crashing down. Lots of strings attached, but none of them will hold you up. And I think I am afraid of heights as well. Wasn't always that way, maybe it comes with the age? So, anyone, how is it to ride a balloon? Well, at least I would imagine it to be a smooth and calm ride. Like the music you will get on tonight's edition with tracks by Steve Roach & Vir Unis (Blood Machine), Christian Fiesel (Radio Noise Station), Däcker, alfa00 & Nimbostrata (INTENT 2023: Eunoia), Aarktica (Paeans), Karmacosmic (Imagine - Music for Reading), Wellengärtner (Live At 35blumen), Progeny-1 (Ariann of Myth Nantar)

!Friendica Support Hi. I have a problem with webp since last night, as the worker constantly reports the following error:
PHP Fatal error: gd-webp cannot allocate temporary buffer in /var/www/vhosts/syndae.de/social.syndae.de/src/Object/Image.php on line 171
There is no memory warning or whatsoever. As I found on the web, this seems to be a problem with webp and video processing (which may or may not be solved).
This is what I found in the friendica.logs:
2023-04-30T07:30:03Z worker [INFO]: Using default mime type {"filename":"https://void.cat/d/HiHYHVszmwmwvSBn1GYBYW.webp","mime":"image/webp","worker_id":"3bb665b","worker_cmd":"UpdateContact"} - {"file":"Images.php","line":120,"function":"getMimeTypeByData","request-id":"644e18f9576da","uid":"826200","process_id":3584}
2023-04-30T07:30:03Z worker [ALERT]: Fatal Error (E_ERROR): gd-webp cannot allocate temporary buffer {"code":1,"message":"gd-webp cannot allocate temporary buffer","file":"<host-path-removed>/src/Object/Image.php","line":171,"trace":null} - {"file":null,"line":null,"function":null,"request-id":"644e18f9576da","uid":"826200","process_id":3584}
Any information on how I could resolve this issue (locally), e.g., by removing a causing entry in the queue (I assume it tries to process one over and over again), or any other suggestion is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Stefan
