It seems that our podcast no 145 was extremely popular with our listeners going by the stats. Funny enough it was one of Micks shows he enjoyed compiling.
Hopefully you will be again enthusiastic to hear what we bring to our latest edition, which brings such a diverse energy of electronic sounds.
It was a privilege to bring Clifford Whites music to Sequences, with tracks from his 4 albums in the Synergy series, melodic upbeat & relaxing tunes. Ambient side filled with such dynamics & spacial depth from Astovia, Neostra & going deeper into the dark side with NIMH. Something a little bit different from Craig Padilla with his long term friend Marvin Allen, melodic and rhythmic, surreal and drifting, the result, a timeless adventure through illuminating guitar tonalities and majestic synthesizer vistas. If it’s modular sequencers you want, you are going to enjoy Adrian Beasley’s album Machine Code & d’Voxx arranged Berlin School inspired sequence lines, wrapped up in a gorgeous blanket of modern ambience on the Din label. Lighter sequencing from the prolific composer SpiralDreams. On the ethereal vocals & the symphonic side, check out Xyrion, Neostra & James Asher. The creative signature sound of Saul Stokes. NNYZ? gives us highly detailed textures with glitchy beats & field recordings. On the experimental side the amusing & eclectic Bloop & Quack. Some lovely echoing slightly off-in-the-distance piano excursions played by Whalt Thisney & Tedd Arnolds unique sonic style, edging on the progressive side.
Blast from the past comes from the 1974 release Zygoat, composed by American Burt Alcantara with the main musicians on this album Brian Hodgson, Dudley Simpson & John Lewis, performing on ARP and R.S.E synthesizers. Brian & Dudley are known for their background music for various sci fi shows like Doctor Who and Blake's 7, Lewis was a member of the band M that had the huge worldwide hit, Pop Muzik.
