  • Episode 99: Heaven and Earth collide
    Dec 1 2024

    The ambient label 4000 Records strikes gold yet again with a stellar lineup from John’s roster. This episode features four incredible artists: Madeleine Cocolas, Spirit Lights, YEARNS, and Tidsguiden.

    As well of a few other tracks, I couldn’t resist including four tracks from their latest work—an ambient mixer’s dream come true:

    • Madeleine Cocolas & Vintage Credenza – "Rather Cold". at 36 minutes in
    • Spirit Lights & Vintage Credenza – "Miloco Sails" at 42 minutes in
    • YEARNS & Vintage Credenza – "The Mystic Cave Speaks Back". 46 minutes in
    • Tidsguiden & Vintage Credenza – "End of an Era". at 51 minutes in.

  • Episode 96: The B sides
    Oct 20 2024

    This evening, a bit of an experimental ambient theme,
    Ideal for the hardened listener, exiting for the new. (Hopefully)
    Hoping you like it.
    Featuring music snippets from artists like
    Frederic Talgorn, Gerard Meurant, Glynis Jones And Charles Dodge.
    Real trail blazers in experimental ambient.
    And a wild card at the end, A Sven Vath track remixed by Neutron 9000.
    It has a drum beat, but worth breaking my rule.
    Enjoy.

  • Episode 94: Let's gather at the water's edge.
    Sep 22 2024

    So, Its Sunday night, raining, and I found myself thinking about old and lost friends.
    Don't know why, but there you are.
    A mix for thinking about the delicate thing called life.
    Remembering all the people we have met along the way, and remembering the people that are no more.
    Years ago I used to go to the canal and stare into the water for hours to do just that.
    so join me for an hour or so.
    Let's gather at the water's edge.

    Just another FYI, Im now uploading on you tube too,

    Like and subscribe, and all that, ;-). Thanks

  • Episode 93: Abstractive essentials
    Sep 19 2024

    Hello,
    Its been a while. I have been busy the past months with my other label, producing and tidying up links etc.
    If you were not aware, surprisingly, i also produce 90's Jungle ! of all genres, what a contrast of genres's huh ?
    So from ambient at little or no BPM to 180-190 BPM. I am a troubled guy. ;-)
    I also was conscious that i was recycling the same ambient tracks at times, and didnt feel comfortable with that, so at the same time, i've been putting together new material, so now i'm back it should be fresh and not so repetitive.

    This episode is more of a sound collage of ambient and soundscapes.
    Nothing too deep. But i will be going deeper in the near future.
    Thank you for all the support even in my absence, you all really are the best fan base.

    Now to the music .............
