Sequences Podcast No 154

Hope you all enjoyed our split edition of Sequences. Strangely on one of the music sites the ambient side had more hits, which I didn’t expect, anyway, back to our usual mix of EM. We welcome Robert Scott Thompson with a preview of his up and coming albums ‘Pluviophilia’ 1 & 2, combining his mastery of electro acoustic contemporary instrumental & advance grade genres. Louis Sterling from Mick’s original hometown in the UK, showing capacious acoustics, washed with soft reverb and distant voices, creating a dream-like atmosphere. “Linear A” by zZyzx, electro-acoustic compositions featuring harp & cello. The overlapping overtone textures and the sounds created by the piano’s intricate mechanism, by Jan Wagner, another majestic score from Andy Pickford, with a ton more sequencers & arpeggiator sounds. New to Syngate, Japanese musician Shinpal, with the track we chose ‘Boundary Of Nature’ which has roots in the music of Manuel Gottsching, just a few of the players to show a wealth of diverse electronics, not to everyones taste, but as Kauto said: “open your mind…………..” Blast from the past comes from the legendary Conrad Schnitzler, a more accessible track from the album “Gelb”, sadly he passed away in 2011. Enough of the blurb, lets the music begin with Caterina Barbieri, giving us hypnotic modular patterns, live in Helsinki.
