Early in the morning, sunshine through the window, rising temperature, birds twittering, water streaming sounds in the distance, such a peaceful start of the day.... Imagine a day on Earth. Some of us lucky enough to have it all. Some of us struggling for life without food, without water, without hope. Strange but true. From the universal point of view; we still haven't found anything like our big blue planet. So we're pretty much dependent on the way we treat her. Think about it when you're escaping from the daily stress, think about it when you're having breakfast, think about it when listening to good music. You might even get more surprised when watching the news or read a newspaper. Are we still connected with the essence of Life and our Environment?nbsp;S 4.18 -Universal- shines a light on forgotten things; perhaps it can be your guide into total relaxation and contemplation.Listen for free or buy the Full Supporting Edition for just 99 cents (higher bitrate, no talk, no jingles, music only).

You know what?... Let's leave the world for a couple of minutes and enjoy this coffee break more than ever! Why don't we fly to the edge of the unknow/known, why don't we experience 'The Edge of a Fairytale' by this great artist from Sweden: Between Interval. They did it again! Hi quality music from one of the most beautiful countries up North from our perspectives. Between Interval is Stefan Strand; he started playing around with sounds at the age of 14, inspired by Jean-Michel Jarre and the SEGA master system for instance. Later releasing house, trance and progressive music under a different name. The ambient motto never left Stefan: The Spotted Peccary label had an excellent nose for his style! They released his albums 'Radio Silence', 'Secret Observatory, 'Autumn Continent'. Stefan got 'top pick' album @ Amazon, Top List for new age in 2006 and 2007. On today's show we play 3 tracks in a row from his latest new ambient adventure sent to us by Spotted Peccary themselves: "The Edge of a Fairytale". Tracks are simply deep... (sounds from the woods and the rain are not included on the album!) There's a mystical tone, some might say: nbsp;-dark- ? Well, that is 'dark' in the sense of 'not knowing what to expect'. Stefan invites us to experience what we know and what we don't know at all.... Are you in? Enjoy the music, enjoy the recipe.

It's now already May 10th 2009 and we're on a countdown for the June Holidays... but first: let's have a fresh cup of coffee shall we? Meanwhile: good photos have been added to our photostream: the Calatrava bridge transport through Rotterdam. A great Santiago Calatrava Valla designed item. Click the Flickr link at the right sidebar for full details. Images go well with music right? Let's introduce our artist for today; We're proud to present: CRASH from New Zealand. His album series: Music for Film. When we first visited his Myspace site and listened to a couple of his tracks: bingo! This music just had to be on the podcast; good quality soundtrack music, high production level, touching melodies mixed with cinematic soundscapes. We can also tell you: we're gonna hear a lot more from Crash in the near future. More information via his Myspace site and for this occassion we've copy-pasted from his site to ours... CRASH is born Mike Beever winter of 1969 in the north of England. At a very early age he is introduced to music through his father, a church organist and his mother a keen 'New Seekers' fan!He develops an interest in uplifting and soaring music through his love of the great composers in particular J.S Bach, Handel, Mozart and Beethoven but it is when he comes ear to ear with film and music that the potent mix strikes a chord. Throughout his teenage years he begins a love affair with sound synthesis aquiring his first synths at age 14 and going on to start experimenting with sound and recording throughout these years. After many years travelling he settles in London and takes position as house engineer at Station Studios and goes on to produce successful LPs, Eps and singles for Coldplay, Seafood, Tiny Too and Fierce Panda Records. CRASH moves to the north of England, Spain and eventually New Zealand in the Spring of 2003 where he lives and works. The next few years begin to take his music to a whole new level and with less distraction and more time he begins to mould his very own brand of music. 'Film Soundtrack Electronica' is the nearest description to what now is produced from the Lodge Studios. Often simple pieces beginning with the piano grow into full orchestral soundscapes only suitable for wide expanse and a wide imagination by the listener. Across the world CRASH is heard by a wide variety of people. He touches emotions through his music and the journey is only just beginning... Play it loud! You won't regret. And your neighbours will be friends for life.... Amaretto Iced Coffee Creamy enough to be a milkshake, but with the smooth almond flavour of Amaretto. What could possibly go better with an afternoon of BBQ. Ingredients: 3 cups coffee, cold 2 cups vanilla ice cream 1 cup milk 1/4 cup Amaretto 2 tsp vanilla 1 tsp almond extract Crushed ice Preparation: Combine everything except ice in a blender and whip until smooth. Fill glasses half full with crushed ice, and fill the rest with coffee mixture. CHEERS!

Press the button and enjoy the show for today: a Senseoreg; one to be precise! Processing the last couple of days. As you can hear on the show our host thinks there's a lot of sick people out there... #62;#62; Queen attack in The Netherlands! #60;#60; At least 6 people were killed. Queen Beatrix and all other members of the Dutch Royal House were safe. Where are we going to? Queensday used to be the best day of the year, everybody happy, everybody party, playing music, hanging out, young and old, events in the city, fireworks @ night and so on. Now look what a sick mind has done to us. Status: he's dead. Some say he deserved to die. On the other hand we'll never know what got into his brain anyway. We hope it wasn't a side effect of the swine flu... ??? High time for a big chill: from France it's Mr. Pierre Lefeuvre a.k.a. SayCet - a french music composer hailing from Paris who cut his teeth listening to Boards of Canada and Muacute;m. His first solo album entitled One Day at Home resulted in nine atmospherical tracks, evoking abstract landscapes and fairy tales for adults from song to song.nbsp;Enjoy this fantastic artist and buy his album right now !!!

Certainly more beats than usual on today's episode. One could even call this one a bit 'alternative'. This show won't go with your dinner table we suppose... so that you know what to expect. Hypnotic tunes and beats that come through the speakers, cinematic layers and IDM like arrangements; performances by Ferry Corsten (Rotterdam, NL), Side Liner from Greece, Ab Ovo from France. Just to name a few. Spacemusic introduces you to the official April/May holidays in Holland as we have the rest of the week off. So now it's really time to do stuff that normally spoken slips through the fingers... We'd like to remind you of the upcoming new Fresh Air! Lounge Series podcasts (cool music to chill off) that will start around June/July. There's a trailer on this podcast. Inspiration for this series is growing and with the UK trip coming closer ... who knows. Lounge style and chill out nbsp;albums can be sent to our Gmail account or send us the URL for downloading your musical files. Thanks!

What a week of hard working does to you... struggling and falling, messing up words coming from the mouth... Fried brains, tired body, sleepy eyes. Maybe it's about time for a good vacation? Indeed! That thought immediately injects us with positive energy so it's the best thing to do right now: focuss on the fun vacation plans. Visiting the UK is one of our plans. June. Higher temperatures. Today's music is a soundtrack that helps you focuss; artists like Ab Ovo, Jon Jenkins, Craig Padilla, Zero Ohms, Skip Murphy, Biosphere, Michael Stearns - the theme 'Cross over' is about the drifting sounds in this mix taking over, no more talk, just music floating back to back. On this show we'd like to thank our sponsors, the Spacemusic HD project is making progress! The brand new Canon HD cam is now in our hands... so we enjoy doing tests and experimenting with all kinds of encoding techniques. The Elgato Turbo H.264 HD has been sent to us to give it a try. Definately a fine piece of equipment that goes well in small spaces: the Turbo encoder is a small USB stick that fits the pocket while travelling and using mobile computers like our Macbook Pro. "Cross Over" nbsp;- a show to take with you wherever you go -nbsp; START (00:00) - Spacemusic 4.16 ::: Cross Over ::: (00:26) - Ab Ovo - The Sky Horses (Haiku Remix) (07:38) - CP/ZO/SM - One moment beyond (11:15) - Jon Jenkins - Cross Over (14:31) - Biosphere/HIA - White Lightning (22:05) - CP/ZO/SM - Perspective of Disappearance (28:08) - Sleepy Town Manufacture - Sny O Planete Leiv (30:07) - Michael Stearns - Twin Flame (33:50) - Joseph Case - Carina's Sleep Song (38:00) - Kilo - Zanzibar (40:57) - Tracklist for today and things going on...

The adrenaline one gets while hearing music on a dancefloor can also be generated when listening to ambient music on the sofa, couple of beats included if you will, shall we try today? Good music from the 90's comes with mystery as well, some bands still exist, some bands simply disappeared from the scene and only continued to perform in our memories. These memories will be visualized on this Spacemusic podcast S 4.14 nbsp;- we bring in the real guns... Xingu Hill is the perfect opening for 1995 on stage, we saw the man performing his album 'Maps of the Impossible' but today we play unreleased stuff.... Turning the knobs, lifting us from the ground as the hi-cut frequency filter opened up our world of dreams. The PLATO store in The Hague during the 90's was our weekly stop for the latest news about ambient and electronic releases: Mr. 'Elf' certainly overwhelmed us those days with his excellent choices for exclusive albums....nbsp;Enjoy this (90's) essence of ambient and beats, accompanied with Xingu Hill, Pete Namlook, Higher Intelligence Agency, The Psychick Warriors ov Gaia and Bola. The great spirit of the 90's, the warm ambient/electronic music scene, parties we visited back then 15 years ago in Leerdam, Wassenaar, Rotterdam, The Hague and more...., no laser shows but strobo+smoke and pars only, DJ's-Labels-and friends like Paul Funk, Elf, Mixmaster Morris, Apollo Records, KK-records, EM:T records, April Records, Rising High Records, FAX-label, Nico, Olaf, Mark, Tim, Paul, Victor, ... The music on this podcast reflects the Mystery of Mystery, where it all got started for us, for me, myself and I - amongst the others - Happy Listening! nbsp; nbsp; START (00:00) - Spacemusic ::: Mystery of Mystery ::: (00:22) - Xingu Hill - Ice (06:44) - Xingu Hill - Fake Life (10:38) - Higher Intelligence Agency - Skank (18:36) - Bola - Pfane Pt.1 (21:26) - Bola - Pfane Pt.2 (24:51) - Cliff Martinez - Can I Sit Next To You?

Spacemusic on drugs this episode: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs during the mixing and production to keep the tooth pain a bit light and bearable. The mind will flow from the past to the present and the future, it's a moving show, it's a show that makes you think about music in general and the digital era we live in. Artists publishing albums via their websites - making it more easy to keep track of their music - buying digital downloads via iTunes Store or any other store out there. In the year 2005 we had contact with Sonarfreq for instance - space music encounter with a touch of magic as Sonarfreq was a true creative designer both in audio and visual forms. After hardly 4 years we started searching for him again... the original Sonarfreq URL now pops-up a completely different site, no Sonarfreq music anymore, no artwork, all gone. Not a single trace via the iTunes Store. Silence.... Just a second ago we realized that the modern way of publishing music via sites and e-stores makes music more fragile than you'd possibly think... There's this risk of music being DIGITAL only: no longer it is a physical product and therefore it has become a very vulnerable piece of art. Horrifying process isn't it?! Seriously, we should look after our artists and music much much more. Time for our next pill.... nbsp; START (00:00) - Spacemusic ::: NSAID COX1 COX2 ::: (00:23) - Sonarfreq - Motion of the Stars (10:49) - Pete Namlook - Spring (The 4 Seasons) (24:58) - David Leckenby - Does it have to be?

Spacemusic S4.12 is about the inspiration music and images can bring us - a picture says more than a thousand words - music was my first love and it will be my last - when the body and mind combines these two ingredients, one can imagine anything is possible! The perfect recipe for an escape to explore; Today's show offers great music from Germany, Norway, USA and UK. One can hear the variation, the cultures, the different circumstances when the music was arranged and produced. Music is about exploring, music is about changes, changes are good, changes are food for new and exciting times in our lives. Why don't we leave right now and find out....?
