SPASS AM UNTERGANG on SPHERE RADIO

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.

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.

Spass Am Untergang [Kassettentäter]

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.

Every year I am amazed by the energy and openness of the cosmic community towards music in all its forms. Being able to play music from the heart in such a setting isn't common and usual. Thanks for staying, listening, dancing and giving me unforgettable memories during the two hours on Sunday evening. For those who didn't make it or want to listen again: here is the recording of my set at Cosmic Gathering 2022. Enjoy!

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.

Arkaoda Berlin resident nighter involving all the dear arkaoda music aficionados plus some brillant guests. This time warming up for Mr. Tolouse Low Trax!

Ozan Maral @ arkaoda nighter w/ Tolouse Low Trax (11/05/19)

Here are two hours of Austropop in all facets from  the record collection of @Stirnband. In his own words: "Vinyl only with one exception: The second track in the intro is the title track of the 1982 debut film Niki Lists "Malaria" aka "Café Malaria", which I happen to see at the beginning of the 90s in Karlsruhe's Schauburg in the presence of the director. Colourful cocktails of various subcultures of the New Wave time get their Schmäh here and arouse my interest for the first time in the peculiarity of the Austrian New Wave in film and music (but it takes until the re-release in 2007 on DVD until I will see the film again). It's also this Schmäh that holds together the eclectic genre term "Austropop" consisting of New Wave, Space Rock, Liedermacher, Poprap, Wiener Blutrausch, Discofunk, Parody and Grotesque.

Tracklist will follow
