    Our team member Andy is on the road to recovery after suffering a stroke and spending 91 days in the hospital, hopefully, we will be getting our website updated with the bio’s for no 207 to our latest 2014.
    A few more new names appeared for the first time. Brooklyn-based composer and producer Rachika Nayar finds the protean guitarist and producer expanding on the ghostly netherworlds of her debut with vivid fluorescent cinematic maximalism. Two new releases of dark experimental ambient drone music on the Russian label Zhelezobeton. Using analogue synths & field recordings, Field Lines Cartographer often creates dark, occasionally bucolic soundscapes. Joseph L Young’s fifty-five-minute excursion into a sonic landscape shifts under the listener's feet with twists and turns. Cass Anawaty & Brian Fechino presents a collection of four pieces that range from pensive and reflective ambient meditations using mainly guitars, & Psycho & Plastic’s latest single lingers in the memory once it’s passed, the merging of delicateness found within the piano and the mournful tones elevate the single in a delightfully unexpected way.
    After a friend recently mentioned some news about the ‘Future World Orchestra’ we came across in our collection the 2000 CD ‘Hidden Files’ on the Groove label, a melodic uptempo album touching on instrumental prog rock, making it the opening tracks under our ‘Blast from the Past’.

    This will be the only edition this month due to other projects.
    Luke Schneider represents a radical new approach to the versatile sounds of the steel guitar, a total reinvention of an iconic instrument. SUSS are the architects of ambient country, with their unique combination of classic Americana instrumentation, with loops and synthesizers, and the unearthly tones of Harry Bertoia sculptures, cluster of thin metal rods with small weights on top, Bertoia coined the term "sonambient".
    Manikin Records, celebrating its 30th year with a CD titled Third Decade 2012 to 2022, unreleased recordings from musicians who have released albums in that period.

    We have lost two of the most influential composers in the electronic music scene in just over three weeks. Klaus Schulze & Vangelis both had music careers spanning over 50 years. I had the privilege of seeing both musicians performing, only once for Vangelis at the Royal Albert Hall in 1976, supporting his first album for RCA, Heaven & Hell.
    Klaus Schulze as many of you know was a member of Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel & Cosmic Jokers before departing on a solo career with a prolific output of over 100 albums.
    Greek composer Vangelis was best known for his epic soundtracks to Blade Runner, Chariots Of Fire & more, renowned for harnessing experimental electronic sounds from Avante -Garde to Symphonic, a "one man quasi-classical orchestra" composing and performing on the first take.
    As we take our journey into this latest edition, let’s reflect with sadness on the power & majestic sounds these two incredible musicians have given us over many decades., R.I.P.

    Not one but eleven new faces to Sequences, including Karmacosmic, made up of four musicians, Rüdiger Gleisberg & Mathias Grassow, well known in this genre for over 40 years with Carsten Agthe & Dirk Schlömer, a musical journey to distant worlds, ambient pads meet spacey sounds and ethnic rhythms.
    Per Thomhav is Synth Replicants, a musician, composer, and producer whose music is influenced by Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, and Vangelis. The theme of 'Kshatriy' is based on drone style with ambient and noise elements, with no specific frames and accept any necessary sound sources
...with a delicate touch.
    American trio Dawn Chorus And The Infallible Sea, consists of zakè, Marc Ertel and Damien Duque. Together they're creating soft-textured and slowly unfolding sonic landscapes.
    It's been over four years since there was no new music from Ulrich Schnauss & Jonas Munk. This time around, the duo heads in a slightly different direction. 'On Eight Fragments Of An Illusion', they bring their individual strengths to the table, yet it transcends their previous work conceptually, just a few of the different styles on this latest podcast.
    As a tribute to the death of Peter Frohmader on May 22nd 2022, we have chosen one of our favourite tracks, "Alaska Part 2" from the album "3rd Millennium's Choice Vol 2"

  • Sequences Podcast No 210: The Fourth E.M.M.A. Festival, Derby 1997
    Emma was formed in 1994 by a team of fans and musicians who gathered together to create an organisation promoting electronic music in the UK, producing a regular newsletter and holding yearly festivals.
    1994 saw two festivals in Derby, England, the first showcasing the best UK acts inc, John Dyson, Andy Pickford, Ian Boddy and Mark Shreeve. The second saw a more international lineup inc. Jonn Serrie (USA) & TK (Germany) both were very successful events.
    In 1995 the venue was switched to Sheffield. Again, the show had an international flavour with the highlight of two of our most successful artists, Ian Boddy & Andy Pickford, headlining.
    After those successful festivals, we were looking forward to more years devoted to EMMA, unfortunately, after some heated exchanges during our monthly meetings, with many leaving, left the remaining members said they could not carry on. Sequences editorial staff who were part of that team decided to go it alone with the EMMA name. Hence two years later, in 1997, the fourth EMMA festival took shape with Mind Over Matter & Waveshape from (Germany), ex Hawkwind player Harvey Bainbridge and three UK acts, Bekki Williams, T/Bass & Kinetic. Although the show, musically, was successful, audience attendance was down on the day. It didn’t help to be the hottest weekend of that summer & unknown to us, a Jean Michel Jarre convention in the same city.
    Special mention must go to Stephan Whitlan, who held everything together as a stage manager on that day, where quite a few technical problems occurred, the biggest failure being Derby University’s massive thirty thousand pound lighting rig which refused to work. It took over three hours for someone to notice they hadn’t connected the power, which meant we had to cut short the headlining act Mind Over Matter’s set (they were not too happy) so as not to run over the time limit set by the concert hall or occur hefty charges.
    And if this wasn’t the end of it, the mixing desk operator who was supposed to look after the recording of the concert failed to check it from time to time, hence some annoying humming & dropouts on the recorded masters we were sent. Tony Sawford (R.I.P.) did his best to try & restore them with some success, but I still felt they were not right. It’s only recently that I’ve rechecked the DATs. Unfortunately, they had not aged well over the last 25 years, having various degrees of deterioration, with one tape breaking, not helped being stored in a shipping container for four years when I emigrated to Australia. With new up to date software not available at that time, we have succeeded in capturing some sections of the performances of what we could salvage. Still, we feel some listeners, especially those who attended the festival, giving you a nostalgic podcast from our last EMMA Festival.

    The adventure continues now, coming into the Easter break, with some of the latest releases in our world of electronic music. Steve Roach & Jeffrey Fayman’s 2002 album Trance Spirits remastered, orchestrating a thunderous sound, with an expansive array of synthetic soundworlds, textural guitar and timbre-rich Middle Eastern and West African-influenced drumming. Composed over ten years by David Helpling with guest musicians comes the double album IN, exploring the magic of space with its cinematic overtones that ascend to shattering crescendos. Enter London-based trio, Decommissioned Forests, an ambient-infused, post-industrial journey through uneasy electronica, accompanied by a sometimes bleak, sometimes hopeful spoken-word narration. Russian artist Non Dolet, Slavic folk-tinged melancholy, and pseudo film soundtrack infused beauty of a most original sounding nature. Once again, Divine Matrix and Johan Tronstam’s quality of music recalls the classic 80’s style of Tangerine Dream and other luminaries of the genre, with Johan producing 16 albums since his solo debut in 2008, that’s just a few of a broad range of music we bring today, enjoy.

    Another collection that’s seen more ambient, ethereal, atmospheric music for our second March edition.
    Always eager to hear a new album from Steve Jolliffe; like the last few releases, just one track of changing structures & sounds. New faces to grace our airways are Elinch from German, a modular synthesist whose calm, slow-moving sound canvases develop into minimalist ambient epics. Female artist Allegorist has been meandering through stories with her purposeful and introspective take on electronic music, with London-based musician and filmmaker going under the name of Blessed Are The Hearts That Bend has a soundtrack to a non-existent film; listeners can create the movie in their head as the album washes over you, a film without pictures.
    It was totally unexpected to hear about the recent passing of Thomas Fanger, a significant player as a solo artist & with his collaboration with Manikin musician & label owner Mario Schonwalder & friends over the last couple of decades. As we sadly say farewell to Thomas, we’ve chosen the chill-out track, ‘Mopho Me’ from the 2013 EP “Mopho Me Babe Mixes” with his good friend Mario & Klaus Hoffman Hock, who parted this world five years ago.

Once again, introducing new exciting artists in many fields, fifteen in total.
    It’s been a while since we played some vintage sounds, from the late 90s into the new decade are two tracks from the group influenced by Kraftwerk, Elektronische-Maschine.
