syndae - episode 108 volume 2 - Halloween edition

Halloween. Time of ghosts and horror. Tonight's episode gives you a trick-or-treat feeling, spine-chilling up to your naked bones. I'll keep quiet to not spoil the atmosphere, so I hope you'll enjoy my selection of dark and spooky tracks.

This show features excerpts of two tracks of the latest Ambient Collective release "Soundtrack for Halloween" by Annode and Bluejooz. More dark music by Innfallen, Karsten Hamre, and the Secret Druid Society, plus a slight calming finale by Gastón Arévalo.

PerSONIKal


We have a new release... and it's personal. 

The title of the release is called "PerSONIKal" and features 7 original tracks. Each track is a musical interpretation of the said author. So, for example, I as Bluejooz would simply write a track I defines me as Bluejooz.
The concept is simple and the results are stunning.
It is free to download / stream from two sources.

Bandcamp.com (features just the seven tracks)
Archive.org (features an extra special blended mix of all seven tracks... only available from here)

And if that is not enough for you... then why not just listen to them hear!

<a href="http://theambientcollective.bandcamp.com/album/personikal">Ebb - Steve Gane by The Ambient Collective</a>

The stream is only 128kbits. PLEASE visit the links and download the album. The bitrates are better! In fact, they are the highest we could get them without putting the fear into the neighbours dogs.
Enjoy!

syndae - episode 100 volume 1

Two years! I have never imagined to be on your ears for about 100 times, once each week, to get tracks of my beloved and versatile genre of electronic music on the internet highways. So, here comes a big thank you for all the nice and positive feedback, and of course all the criticism and advices, and surely for your support as listener or label owner or musician. I am really happy about how my humble podcast turned out to become a well received weekly event on many, many audio players. So this is episode 100, celebrating two years of shows. And therefore, it's an XXXXL episode, split into four volumes, each 30 minutes, for four following days. Enjoy some of the great artists who accompanied the podcast over the years, of course with some new and unreleased tracks in between. Volume One featuring Broekhuis, Keller & Schönwälder, Erik Seifert, Johannes Schmölling, Stefan Erbe, Synth.nl, and Uwe Reckzeh.
