Tosca is the joint musical project of Richard Dorfmeister and Rupert Huber from Vienna, Austria. Their output - including albums like "Opera“ (1996), "Suzuki“ (1999), "Dehli 9“ (2002) and "No Hassle" (2010) are considered milestones of the downtempo genre. The musical trademark of Tosca is a cheerful laid-back feel that emanate a warm, and occasionally melancholic atmosphere. The music of Tosca is played in clubs and living rooms, boutiques and wineries alike. A feat that only few musicians succeed in.

AUDIOGLIDER made his debut mix for radiOzora included three tracks from his upcoming album Subaquamarine coming soon on Section Records.

A teen in the eighties, with dodgy haircuts to match, he saw Kraftwerk supported by the Human League on the Computer Love tour (he even got to play the calculator for a brief moment) , and straightaway fell in love with electronic music.
AUDIOGLIDER’s first break came with two exclusive tracks on Nick Warren’s GU30 Paris, to much critical acclaim, quickly followed by two EPs, Halcyon and Slight Return and remixes on Glenn Morrison’s digital label Morrison Recordings. Since then, it’s been a blur of releases and remixes on Renaissance, Sudbeat, Stripped Recordings, 238W, Hydrogen, Soundteller, Mistique, Stellar Fountain, Sleepless Nights, ASIP, and of course a full artist album, Accidental Beauty, on Tripswitch’s mighty Section Records. Straddling with equal aural dexterity between progressive house / dancefloor vibes, and more shoegaze /downtempo excursions, Audioglider is preparing to release his second full album, returning to Section’s stable for late May/June release. Entitled Subaquamarine, its a widescreen, wide ranging affair, and you can hear a couple of previews in his set for radiOzora.

Close your eyes, and be swept away in these sonic soundstages… this sound is so visual you can almost reach out and touch it.

Tripswitch - Unburden (sample)

https://planetmu.bleepstores.com/release/74321-mike-rich-expert-knob-twiddlers

A collaboration between Aphex Twin (Richard D. James) and µ–Ziq (Mike Paradinas), Mike & Rich - ’Expert Knob Twiddlers’ was made back in 1994. Richard edited the tracks into shape later in 1996 with his new Apple Mac computer and it was released later that year on Rephlex, the label he co-owned and which released the first two albums by µ-Ziq.

This new reissued version has been carefully cleaned up, re-edited and remastered from the original DAT tapes, put into a more fitting order and, more excitingly, seven new bonus tracks and alternative versions have also been added.

The album was recorded over a few days during the 1994 World Cup, back when Richard lived in a big shared flat in Stoke Newington. Richard had tried to collaborate with a few other likeminded artists but something clicked when Mike and Rich worked together and the sessions have a unique feel; playful and at times actually drunk. These are fun experiments in the spirit of lighthearted moog pop and ripe 70s British TV themes, standing out from the po-faced electronica of the time with a garish glee.

The record was made on what is now seen as pretty primitive gear - an Atari, Roland MKS-80, Memorymoog, Roland R8 and a handful of samples on a Casio FZ-10M - but it’s to their credit that it resonates well with the hardware workouts coming out today. There's a broadminded but sloppy funk to the record, even whistling, singing and harpsichord in 'Reg' and wonky beat pile-ons in 'Jelly Fish'. There's latin piano and wheezy drunken techno in ‘Vodka’, or the sleepy spaced out ambience of ‘Bu Bu Bu Ba' with its barely contained laughter which seems to reflect the absurdity. 

The new versions and bonus tracks are an absolute delight and well worth the purchase - from a trancier version of ‘Vodka' to the wonky bounce of ‘Portamento Gosh', The 3/4 dub of 'Waltz,' the banging door bass of' Brivert and Muonds', the creepy seasick atmosphere of 'Clissold Bathroom' and finishing with the strangely graceful and serious 'Organ Plodder'. A generous and welcome return to the racks.
