FAITHLESS - Sunday 8pm

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/11/faithless-sunday-8pm.html

My favourite from Faithless, and I wager a lot of other folks' favourite from Faithless too. Even if they don't realize it.

Transatlantik Lounging 3 (Exotic Vibes, Mystic & Caribbean Cool), released on Life Enchancing Audio in 2000.

Compilation of downtempo grooves released in Belgium from 2000. Kind of thing I used to play in bars around then, albeit not in Belgium.

Archive – Londinium (1996)
Один из ключевых альбомов в истории трип-хопа — мрачный, нервный и невероятно кинематографичный. Londinium сформировал звучание конца 90-х и до сих пор остаётся мощным ориентиром жанра.

Obложка альбома Archive – Londinium (1996): тёмный, атмосферный дизайн в стиле трип-хопа.

Eine davon war meine und es is noch da Leute! Hier wird nichts künstlich verknappt und plötzlich sind keine Downloads mehr da. Fantasie ist grenzenlos

CIRCULAR - Substans

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/11/circular-substans.html

One of those records that has a lot of good ideas, but isn't good for those with bouts of ADHD.

INSTITUTE OF FREQUENCY & OPTICAL RESEARCH - Subspace Messages
https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2009/12/institute-of-frequency-optical-research.html

2015 UPDATE!
https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/11/institute-of-frequency-optical-research.html

Talk about timing. One of the original artists involved in this recently reached out to me regarding my, erm, not-so flattering thoughts about this release. Can't say I wasn't sincere, even if my early prose was still wallowing in Web 1.5 Era snark.

#ElectronicMusic #Acid #AmbientTechno #Downtempo #Techno #SciFi

This transmission's coming to you from beyond the reality realm.

It maybe an unpleasant November out there - but what about some warm coziness from the inside?

I know something that may spark all that:

RADIO IRRTUM!
(on air from Berlin)

↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓

Da next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will air this Saturday, 2025/11/22, 8:00pm UTC+1, Berlin time. At Alex Berlin FM at 91MHz / DAB+ K7D around #Berlin + worldwide at https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

Wuzit then?

#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music all over this planet's genre spectrum. Don't worry about that #GermanLanguage - it's all about the #music!
A lot of it - this time with a bit of focus on Spoken Words!

Covering stuff like

- lightweight musical poems
- voice heavy #organPoint Pop
- dreamy Bulgarian #Triphop
- a #Fediverse dream cooperation of #Bonkwave artists doing classic #DnB
- playful #indietronic
- #140 #Bass full of dancy-pancy energy
- #IBM (the term Radio-Irrtum! uses for Intellectual Bass Music) including Spoken Words
- Experimental #SpokenWords
- less #experimental SpokenWords
- dark Riot Grrrl #Postpunk
- dreamy #Downtempo #Lofi for making you smile

Lots of #CreativeCommons music is included and there are super cool artists from the Fediverse. Like @axwax@chaos.social + @ahihi@anticapitalist.party + @animaexanimata@norden.social + @poemproducer@systerserver.town . Lots of strong women in music too. Lots wont be found on Spotify while it's all here!

Also (mostly for the German listeners I'm afraid) I will explain the organ point composition technique which is featured even in modern music (and without an organ if you are lucky).
And I will merge Johann Sebastian Bach's name into "Johannes Bach" by misstake at one point. I honestly know better! I can say this because the show is preproduced (and still I didn't catch this before uploading it to the radio station; this is bad!).

Anyway: If at least a bit interested in kewl new unusual #music, tune in! 📻

Got questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask here!
Playlist + manuscript after the show also here.
CU all (?) on Saturday.

↑↑↑ English version above, the Deutsche welche jetzt ↓↓↓

Radio Irrtum! kommt näher → Samstag, 22.11.2025, 20:00 isses soweit auf Alex Berlin (FM 91MHz/DAB+ K.7D / Stream URL oben).

Diesmal mit einem gewissen Fokus auf Spoken Words.
Und dabei so Sachen wie…

- ↑↑↑ naja - steht ja alles oben! ↑↑↑

Vieles davon gibz nich auf Spotify, dafür gibz viel Creative Commons; & wir hamn massig Fediverse Künstler:innen vertreten (s.o.).
Ich erkläre, was der Orgelpunkt ist und sage "Johann Sebastian Bach" falsch.

Wird schön! Playlist + Manuskript nach der Sendung hier drunter. Fragen einfach hier stellen – ich antworte.

Thievery Corporation — Sounds From The Thievery Hi-Fi (1996)
A defining early downtempo record that shaped the vibe of the late ‘90s: warm bass, global influences, vinyl textures and that unmistakable cinematic flow.

New review is up on All Trip Hop.

Album cover: Thievery Corporation – “Sounds From The Thievery Hi-Fi” (1996). A collage-style design with retro colors, abstract shapes and a vintage, cinematic aesthetic.

Heute ein echter Diamant für Menschen die es gerne elektronisch haben.

Its "Un beau rêve" releaseday

https://song.link/unbeaureve

get my new song at the streaming services or song you are.

#lofi #chill #downtempo #electronic #releaseday #bandcamp #soundcloud

you see my actual cover from "un beau rêve" which is based on a picture from the artist Pamela Colman Smith (1878-1951). The illustration shows a female figure balancing on a fish-like creature and reaching for a large green ball. It is a well-known work of art that allows for various interpretations, often in the context of spirituality, balance or the pursuit of something higher.
