SPASS AM UNTERGANG on SPHERE RADIO

COSMIC VIBRATIONS

MiXMiX

Would you like to dance a little? Then welcome to this episode of Spass am Untergang. Welcome to the Dorfdisko. In keeping with spring, a little disco and funk with a breeze of synthpop from the German-speaking area. A hello, a dance, a wink. One hour into the funny downfall. Hang in there. At least until the next fun.

Spass Am Untergang [Dorfdisko]

There is no roadmap, just as there is no genre. Before was fun and important, but it was only one of the preludes. After four shows, we now come to my personal core of this musical cosmos. It becomes electronic. Synthesis and synthesizers. drum machines and vocoders. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow. electrified!

Egal. Spass am Untergang.

Spass Am Untergang [Synthopia]

Welcome back. Still not sunk? Today will help, with a special program about magnetic tapes, noise and ingenious dilettantism - Kassettentäter - A special scene from the underground, because since the mid-1970s it was possible to record and release music from every child's room and every basement. Since that time, portable cassette recorders and four-track devices were available everywhere affordably in West Germany. Tapes!
Frank APunkt Schneider describes in his book "Als die Welt noch unterging" quite aptly the cassette scene as "the hyperactive child of the NDW era". The whole book is also highly recommended in other respects.

Egal. Spass am Untergang.

The Last Shelter (live from objekt klein a)

Welcome back after a little break. The last show was a cassette special. Again i'm not sticking to any particular sub-genre, but have picked up another musical medium. Only 7inch records are played. Nevertheless, I tried to find a line through the hour. Musically it goes in the direction of Synthpop/Wave; made in Switzerland, Austria or Germany as always. Also I was not very strict with the thematic selection, so that current releases are also heard. good music is just good music . Have fun.

Spass Am Untergang [7inch Spezial]

This was a different show. I had the human encyclopedia next to me when it comes to German language music. We had a little chat love during the last lockdowns, as it was often not possible to meet. He directly felt like co-designing a show and the topic was clear quite fast, since we had already often talked about it. This time it goes in the direction of dub and reggae influenced music, but also about early Proto-Rap made in Austria, Switzerland or Germany. We just pressed record and see what happens. The result is a 3h madness and luckily Sphere Radio played along that we were allowed to broadcast it completely. Without blahblah, just musik. I feel like this is also a good time to pause the show for an undetermined amount of time. But enough words. Thanks Beda , for sharing the wheels. Always a pleasure.

For the second hour of our radioshow we invited @m_f-x. DJ and musical wizard from Leipzig. He did a gem of a Radio Show called SPASS AM UNTERGANG on sphere Radio focussing on mostly german speaking (post-)punk, NDW, wave and synth music from 1979-1984. That’s what you’ll get. No Fun.

Space Is The Place #2

Hi Folks, you just found your way to my new series. I want to give my personal overview of German speaking music during the little period between '79 and '84, which was mostly made in Switzerland, Germany and Austria, but not too dogmatic with some exceptions from these countries and also from the time-stamps.

The first part is called Lieblingsstücke, because I wanted to start with no special topic and also to present a few oddities of my collection. I’m not completely satisfied with the result, because it was a bit chaotic this evening. but hey, I guess chaos and freedom of everything was the embodiment of this time.

Spass am Untergang [Lieblingsstücke]

Herewith you enter the second episode of doom, which doesn't want to deny itself fun. The introduction last time gave a rough musically outline of the period from '79 to '84. This time we find ourselves in the realm of punk and focus on NO FUN. The borders are floating, even if they should actually be completely gone. In any case, the funk and the synthesised side of the underground are more to my liking in this area. Another hour again everything and nothing. Aus Spass wurde Ernst, Friedrich.

Spass am Untergang [No Fun]

This special broadcast is dedicated to all women and mothers, sisters and daughters, female artists and musicians, engineers, construction workers and trailblazers. An hour of music from female hands with the usual focus on German language music. Thank you for all the music, ideas and important changes.

With love, a fan.
