Hi everyone,We’ve had a large amount of promos in this month, virtually all new releases, so we decided to break up the latest podcast no 110 into two parts, just one edition would been a lengthly listening session of over 5 hours. Mick moved to a new abode a few days ago, needs time to settle in, which means the next edition (no groans please) will probably not be aired until the later part ofJune. Because of the number of releases here I will leave it up to you the listeners to check out the bio’s on all the musicians which can be found on our website. Until the next time, enjoy the show.

With our first edition of May, we’ve had a fifty, fifty split between ambient & experiment and the more uptempo melodic sounds arrived on our desk this month, we were going to make this podcast in two halves, but decided to mix the two together giving you light and shade variations over the three hours. If there is any thoughts on this do let us have your comments, On the list we have the latest releases from Ian Boddy & Markus Reuter, Vanderson, Syndromeda, Robert Rich & Markus Reuter, Baltes & Erbe and Romerium, with one track from Lomita, Jaja, Mindphaser, C J Rogers and David Parsons last album Puja, which we managed to get hold of, Mick’s a great fan of his music.

With the release of Steve Jolliffe’s new autobiography, including a copy of Cyclone, plus a short unreleased track from Tangerine Dream

Hi everyone, after getting more adventurous with the music on our last issue, we explore more engaging sounds again that play in the field of electronic music, but don’t go as far as the more youthfull modern trend of techno, dance, house an so on, Mick showing his age here.

We also welcome those who have come our way for the first time, Chris Russell, Agan, Dumbledog, Corell, Yodok 3 & Blausofa.

Intro music to Sequences

Welcome to our opening edition for April, slightly different this time. With so many of tracks in the ambient, cosmic, experimental side, we’ve decided to split this podcast into two sections, the first the more melodic, rhythmical sounds of EM, including live tracks from, Kebu, Stephan Whitlan, Moonbooter and Otarion, the second section flowing with dark ambient space music & experimental sounds, slowly fading out to the softer new age style. You make the choice between the two or both if you are more adventurous, It’s good to see two more female musicians here, Pilestra from the band Thy Veils with a solo single and Shirley Cason, relaxing peaceful music, As with previous editions, we feature a track from one of our lost friends who died to soon in 2015, Patrick Kosmos. We open with two tracks from Nord’s new album, Ring Of Fire.

We kick off this session with Andy Pickford’s latest release, Harmonics In Silence, one of tw

Hi everyone and thanks for listening. Recently we had one fan who asked why don’t we have podcasts devoted solely to one style, be it Berlin School or space music, chill-out to New Age, if that’s your preference there are plenty of excellent mixes out there on the world wide web for a more easy listening experience. But that’s not our object, we are here to make you sit up and listen to new sounds from electronic musicians from all corners of the globe, be it melodic and rhythmical, ambient to dark wave to the more engaging mysterious experimental sounds that play mind games. The old saying “variety is the spice of life” and it’s certainly what we hope to bring in the music we select for each edition. Mick always likes to delve into the unknown were the music is concerned which makes his work editing each podcast so exciting, you never know what’s going to turn up, enjoy Track list No104 02.00 Addictive Wizard ‘Die Reise Zur Sonne pt3’ (album The Unknown Galaxy,The Passenger Of Time Vol 2) www.addiction-wi
