New website, now fully operational

New website now up and running!

We had no intention of building a new website but problems with the old site and host left us with little choice. We're hoping this new site will serve everyone better and enables a little more interaction. You can now leave comments on each blog/news post and also sign our guestbook if you just want to say hello.

We still have work to do transferring the years of news entries over to the new blog and a few things which need tweaking and improving. This will take somewhat of a back seat as we need to continue releasing new music and get back to normal business.

Best Wishes

Neil

Corciolli - H2O

New album entitled H2O by Corciolli now featuring on Moon Phase Radio - Ambient.

 

 

Corciolli casts his gaze on the theme of H2O; he raises it from the essence of the sound language. In it, nothing is really extramusical. The eightmovement suite that composes the album revisits important legacies of electronic music, inspired by orchestral sonorities produced by Isao Tomita (1932-2016), Vangelis (1943-2022), and exponents of the so-called Berlin School, such as Klaus Schulze (1947-2022).

Released on March 22nd, World Water Day, the work is a permanent invitation to reflect on our environmental and humanitarian responsibilities. What is our role in the cycles of life, indeed?


Tracklist
1. H2O: I. Life Cycles (06:27)
2. H2O: II. Phytoplankton (04:58)
3. H2O: III. Méduse (04:29)
4. H2O: IV. Hydrosphere (04:34)
5. H2O: V. Permafrost (04:59)
6. H2O: VI. Carbon Cetacea (04:56)
7. H2O: VII. The Fountains of Paradise (11:33)
8. H2O: VIII. Aurora (04:41)

'Strange New Worlds' by Joerg Dankert

New album entitled 'Strange New Worlds' by Joerg Dankert now featuring on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

In the words of Joerg Dankert:

“To explore strange new worlds; seek new life and new civilizations; to go boldly where no man has gone before!”

In my youth, I heard those words a hundred times. This quote is from the opening of the Starship Enterprise TV show. Now, many decades later, I am witnessing major advances in space exploration, fascinating new technologies, and detailed images from the universe and animations about exoplanets.

"Strange new worlds" is atmospheric, with lots of soundscapes and sound effects, sometimes dark and then melodic again. I didn't break many new paths, but stayed true to myself and my preferences. The tones and sounds are all invented and recorded by me. Presets are sometimes a starting point for me, but they're always being modified.

'Seclusion' released on 22nd of June 2023

“I have always loved the desert. One sits down on a desert sand dune, sees nothing, hears nothing. Yet through the silence something throbs, and gleams...”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Producer Mental Minority is what Skyrim is to the PS3 world. Noteworthy, respected and continually revered, Bremen’s jewel in a synthesizer crown keeps shining alight in the darkness of the unworthy.. and the delusion of the untalented. Mental Minority makes it all seem real and extremely “Kraftwerk” & “Fear of Tigers” possible.

'Frozen Waste' by Daryl Groetsch

The forthcoming new album 'Frozen Waste' by Daryl Groetsch is now featuring on Moon Phase Radio.

 

 

Portland, Oregon-based composer Daryl Groetsch’s output under the name Pulse Emitter forms a catalog of nearly one hundred physical releases since the early ‘00s. The full scope of his wide-ranging experiments in synthesis and electronic arrangement encompasses everything from expansive new age drift exercises, to purely textural noise sculpting, to post-Berlin School cybernetic prog compositions. Pulse Emitter approaches electronic composition from the perspective of a master craftsman, harnessing a fine-tuned sense of narrative development and a penchant for juxtaposing contrasting synth voices from far-flung corners of his arsenal of softsynths, app-based programs, and hardware instruments. While he conjures time-lapse vistas of galaxies and nebulas in our mind’s eye, the sophistication of his arrangements and the universal beauty of his harmonies pushes the lens inward on the self, resulting in a journey that is as personal and internal as it is celestial.

As of 2022, Daryl Groetsch has also been creating pure ambient space music under his birth name.

'Frozen Waste' is one half of twin albums being released on the 18th of July. Between now and then, MPR will be featuring five preview tracks from both albums, 'Gardens in Glass' and 'Frozen Waste'

Featured tracks:
1. Earth Tone
2. Frozen Waste
3. Centerless
4. In Blackness
5. Snow Covered Landscape

'Where Tides Defy the Moon' by Abandoned Toys

'Where Tides Defy the Moon', the latest album by Abandoned Toys, is now featuring on Moon Phase Radio.

 

 

Released on the 12th of May 2023 by Mythical Records.

'Where Tides Defy the Moon' is a beautiful combination of dramatic neoclassical arrangements and experimental dark ambient sound worlds.

Mythical Records are purveyors of fine art electronica music, experimental music, contemporary classical music, and ambient music. While their artists' aesthetics are experimental in nature, they primarily deal with professionally trained classical musicians, who have turned to a more experimental side of music, including stylings spanning the darkly decadent to the childlike dreams of fairy tales.

EZ77 - 'Thoughts'

New track from EZ77 entitled 'Thoughts', now featuring on MPR Chill.

 

 

May 19th, 2023 will see the release of "Thoughts" - the debut single of EZ77.
 
EZ77 is the lo-fi/lounge music alter ego of charts awarded German hip-hop producer Eifelgangsta. If you like relaxed, jazzy chillout music, "Thoughts" is just the right thing.
 
Lukewarm late summer wind caresses the skin during the walk on the beach. The rhythm sets the pace. The jazzy saxophone massages the eardrums. A relaxing feeling sets in, and yet a certain melancholy rises with the "Thoughts" that this moment of security is finite.
