Our CD of the month is a galactic journey from Jeff Johnson and Phil Keaggy. The keyboardist and guitarist take a more ambient approach on their album, Spinning on a Cosmic Dime.
Take Sigur Ros, add strings and a more classical sensibility, and you’d get Limina. By day, Tyler Durham works on film scores. At night he fires up his virtual orchestra as Limina.
We go on a quest with David Arkenstone. He returns to fantasy themes and epic orchestrations on his latest release, Quest for the Runestone. Join us in the land of myth on Echoes.
We have one conversation with a trio that has released an album called Seven Conversations. They are Jeff Oster, Vin Downes and Tom Eaton. We talk to them about improvising in ambient space.
Kasbo is an electronic artist out of Sweden whose music hangs between ambient and EDM. He has a new album, The Learning of Urgency. We’ll hear that, as well as music by Caoilfhionn Rose.
We get liquid with Edgar Froese’s solo debut album, Aqua, released 50 years ago. Froese was the founding member of Tangerine Dream, but this album went more experimental.
On a Slow Flow Echoes, new music by Tycho from his album, Infinite Health. It’s a return to form from the energized ambient artist. We’ll also hear guitarist John Gregorius.
On the next Echoes we celebrate Klaus Schulze’s Blackdance. Released in 1974, it was Schulze’s 3rd release and the first to see him moving in the direction of music for which he’s best known.
Settle in for another night of Long Tracks on Echoes. We’re going to hear a modular exploration from Steve Roach, an ambient track by Pantha Du Prince, and something from Lisa BellaDonna.
