Spacemusic 8.14 Chemical Reactions

August 29th 2013 - show 8.14 is an intense mix of ambient and electronica from this planet and beyond. Sometimes our blue planet is getting too small and too scary. As a reaction, this show is a ticket to a place where you can feel safe and relaxed. Enjoy! Let’s start slowly... with Shane Morris and Mystified; the track is called ‘a struggling new form of life’. Not only do we like this title so much, it sets the theme for this mix like no other track could do. Superb! Arriving september 10th but already on our show.... the brand new album by Darshan Ambient! First you hear ‘Fields’, later in this mix the title track of the album called ‘Little Things’. The album? Not little at all ;-) Back from the silence.... it’s Planet Boelex! As soon as you hear the sounds you will recognize the typical Boelex approach; two tracks back to back, a collaboration between Boelex/Mosaik and a track by Boelex himself. Also check the 8.14 LOG file for more info about this brand new EP release. It really seems like yesterday we played the first track by PB on our show.... remember Swamp Gas back in 2005?.... Syngate releases presents: KIKAI. Ready for music inspired by machines and sounds from the early days of synthesizer music? It’s beautiful and gives us a chance to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the view.... See that crazy blue planet through the window? That’s where we started this journey... Music from Berlin then; incredible melodies and sounds by two amazing guys: Modeselektor and Apparat. Just listen. Don’t think. Don’t ask why. Say hello to Schiller! From the ultrasuperdeluxe edition of ‘Sonne’ we took the third album ‘Sonnenwelten’ for a magical bridge between the two Moderat pieces in this mix. Sonnenwelten is 100% instrumental and space proof. Damage Done by Moderat ... till the tears roll down your face. So, let’s start this show now. (Kidding!) The band with a name I can’t write down without triple checking; Oneohtrix Point Never. File this under: psychedelic ambient or cinematica if you will. Original thinking and beautifully done. Must hearthis one multiple times! Around the corner we sense Dust in the air; Solar Fields at his best. We’re now past a certain point in this mix where you probably feel what this episode tries to express.... The ‘Little Things’ track by Darshan Ambient starts playing; slowly moving, grooving, subtle sounds and spectres, flowing into the music by Janneh from Finland. Your body is floating now.... don’t fight it, just let it all happen! Experimental / Dark Ambient comes from the 2007 release by Joe Frawley, a piece that popped-up here fon the computer all of sudden ... The Tangerine album; it’s like good wine: tracks getting better every year, we still love the album! And it goes so very well with our next transition... That’s the final ambient piece for this mix: a T.S.R. production... when Carbon Based Lifeforms meets Solar Fields. Literally. Hello...? Anyone...? Aha..... everybody’s asleep now. Perfect! When you wake up, there’s a beautiful world waiting for you. At least, we hope so. Love and Light! TRACKLIST: [00:00] Welcome to Spacemusic 8.14 Chemical Reactions!
