    Welcome back, hope you all enjoyed our special edition on Erik Wollo, more to come later in the year. Lets now continue our look at more new releases, with some info on the new musicians to appear on Sequences. The deep drones embedded in neoclassic arrangements, of strings, interweaved with field recording by Imaginary Landscapes. Off Land’s beat-less, seamless, ambient kaleidoscope. Hypnotic patterns weaved around drifting synth scapes from Motionfield. Winter Light label gives us Sysselmann, employing more organic field recordings and uses these in combination with acoustic instruments. The Kahvi Collective, always comes up with interesting acts, Weldroid being one of them, a multifaceted foray of chilled electronics that spans through ambient synthesizer and abstract IDM fissures. The Ambient Zone, includes three more artists, Warmth a Spanish producer focusing on ambient techno, Chris CoCo’s tunes based around the Buddhist day of the week & the comical named Stanleystanley, pairing saturated electronic sounds with more conventional acoustic instruments such as harps and bass guitars. US based musician Andrew J Douglas melodic sequential music, with hints of Berlin School and to finish off the newbie’s, Holland Phillips & Ross Christopher, combining strong scores & melodies, promoted by Higher Level Media,

    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.

  • Sequences Podcast No 153 Part 1
    Due to Mick having a very busy month, we are bit late with our second June edition.
    With so many promos coming in, we decided with the up and coming podcasts, to have two editions of our latest one, no153. Part 1 featuring the more sequential, melodic and the slightly off beat electronic styles with some experimentations. In part two, the ambient side, sometimes dark, unpredictable with spacial choral & neo-classical sounds.
    Part one is definitely another diverse collection of tracks, Keith Richie’s crunchy baselines and echoing riffs on C.T.F.O, the live nature of Paul Nagle’s sequencing, chill out to Murinsel Vol 2 by Stan Dart, expanded piano looping of Celia Hollander, Gunter Schickert’s pioneering work of the echo guitar sound, the hallmarks of Kraut rock, intricate, multi-layered, pattern based structures, with more abstract, improvisatory, textures on the album. ‘One twenty’, six years in the making by Daniel Biro, Rhinoceros inspired by the industrial sound, influenced by Can, Kraftwerk Faust & Amon Duul, in the German 80’s electronic scene and of course more accessible, melodic, rhythmical & driving beats, from other guest musicians on this issue.
    It’s very unusual to have cover versions, but here we have two, featuring Mark Jenkins arrangement of Mike Oldfield’s,‘Tubular Bells’, for the Moog synthesizer and a great version from the Wordless Music Orchestra, playing part of Klaus Schulze’s, ‘Body Love’ .
    With blast from the past, we devoted two tracks from UK artists, Mystic Shade & Peter Beasley, prominent in the late 80’s early 90s with their best examples of the British electronic scene, around that time.

  • Sequences Special Edition Podcast No 151: Wavestar & John Dyson
    Welcome to another special edition, devoted to UK electronic music artist, John Dyson, whose musical career has spanned nearly 35 years, with his first band, Wavestar, formed with David Ward Hunt, (who sadly passed away in 1999), releasing 3 albums in the 80’s and going solo with 6 more over a 20 year period. In 2018 saw the formation of new Wavestar 2, accompanied by accomplished composers and
    studio-technicians Paul Ward and Stephan Whitlan, releasing the debut album “Nightwind’s.
    Once described as a "cheeky chappie" by none other than Sir Paul McCartney, John Dyson has been a leading light in the UK Electronic Music scene for many years. We also would like to add, that he is one of the kindest and friendliest people we know, with great stage presence. Do check out the bio on his musical career and photos on our website.
    We kick off with John’s all-time best-seller “Evolution”, his first solo release on the Surreal to Real label, set up by John with help from musician Anthony Thrasher, who played on his early concerts in the UK & Europe.

    Already a third way into the New Year and the musicians we have featured are still producing some gems of high-quality sounds that are dynamic & fresh. Not always the conventional approach to electronic music, but nevertheless engaging & challenging.
    A few names to mention on this edition, the double live album "Altair", from Ian Boddy’s US show at The Gatherings 2018. Musicformessier collaborates with ambient guitar legend Dan Cain on "Timelessness", one of the best guitar driven atmospheric albums of the year. Rapoon’s deep industrial space ambiance and majestic choral bursts with emotive piano chords, spacious feel of Berlin School style sequencing & melodics from Thaneco. On Syngate records, dark tones & ambient sounds of Divided By Two. The re-release of Syndromeda’s 2006 album "Last Days Of Earth", containing powerful sequencing delving with a darker twist & new to Sequences Pulse Emitter expansive tapestries of sound.
    Vintage track from Sam Rosenthal 1986 release "Before The Buildings Fell", pioneering a style close to the post-prog work of the Tangs & Eno.
    Computer chemist kicks off this edition with his eight solo album "Volcan Dreams", with Chris Gill on Guitar & Zsolt Galantai on drums, tracks in the analog domain with strong infectious soloing, especially on the track you are going to hear, fans of old school synth music are going to love this.
