Here Goes Nothing. A phrase often associated with either expecting failure or doing something risky, although none of that will be the case for this radio show, well, maybe a bit risky. But don't you worry about that. There are no restrictions and no genres here, only a wide array of music brought to you by Ranie Ribeiro.

Operator Radio - Guestmix Mark Van Den Ouden - 26th October 2024

State Of The Ether Episode #23 w/ @newinfluenzer
...
People always say that Hamburg and Rotterdam are comparable. City by a big harbour, people speak their mind, the music is rough and gritty. To examine this hypothesis, this month's guest is Newinfluenzer. Famed for her style of all things Electro & Breaks, founder of the party series E-Gym and singer of the underground hit 'Ich und meine U-Bahn.', the look-forwards are high.
...
State Of The Ether is a bi-monthly radio show on @operator-radio. Its focus lies on the artists along the axis Rotterdam <-> Leipzig and their music. Aiming to showcase unreleased tracks, an amalgam of unfinished, unmastered and not quite thought out tunes is presented.

State Of The Ether is back with (not) a history lesson. Why does punkrock from germany sound so angry after the fall of the Berlin Wall? What happened in August of 1995 in Hanover? And does the scene dare to use synthesizers again these days? You are going to find out if you tune in to State Of The Ether #27 - Deutschpunk Special. The continuation of the NDW Special. Where we'll focus on german punk from the 1990's onwards.

Serge Stork, aka DJ Serko, is a DJ and producer from Amsterdam.
Throughout his years of being active in the club scene, he has cultivated a varied taste in music from downtempo to techno and everything in between. With a deep love and inspiration from old school music, he incorporates vinyl he has collected over the years into every set.

As the founder of Auris Listening Sessions, he curates well thought out lineups that bring people from the underground scene into a judgment free environment, where the attention shifts more to listening rather than the artists themselves.

In the last couple of years, he has started producing his own music. His work consists of sample and sound design based productions rooted in ambient and other experimental styles.

Ranie Ribeiro's artistic journey has taken on new dimensions and disciplines. Formerly known by his DJ moniker D-Ribeiro, Ranie Ribeiro is solidifying himself as a harpist. 

One of the notable aspects of his transformation is not only embracing the role of a composer, but also as a stage performer. 
For award winning choreographer Sedrig Verwoert’s latest piece “The Ritual” (2023), Ribeiro was initially commissioned as a co-composer alongside Phantom Wizard. Eventually both self taught musicians performed live on stage while Sedrig Verwoert and Alanna Archibald executed the piece in elegant movements.  

In live performances at acclaimed venues such as Paradiso, Melkweg and de Doelen (2023) Ribeiro used the harp to experiment with classical, electronica and hiphop elements while creating and adding on to existing compositions he describes as meditative and vulnerable. Ribeiro also appeared with singer-songwriter Linde Schone on NPO 3FM and with the newly formed Kinship Ensemble at Ruigoord (2023).

Ribeiro unveils his talents as a score composer for the first time on Het Jaar Rond on Nous’Klaer (2021), commissioned by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. Embracing the harp’s delicate resonance he went on scoring various projects such as Het Limburgse Landschap (2021), Short Scores (2022) commissioned by Eye Film, and most recently, Waka Nanga Mi (2023). The latter short film was screened at the International Film Festival Rotterdam and received massive public acclaim.

Jonas grew up in Mažeikiai, an industrial town in Lithuania, famous for its oil industry, which apparently is a very proper soil for electronic music. Like most kids back in the days, he took up trombone, piano and breakdance. His early music experience was influenced by broken beat and so he started to mix Hip Hop and Funk music under the alias Calli. 

Jonas paused his exploration of music for a while after reaching Minimal Techno and relishing its scope of creativity. He discovered MINUS in 2007 and immediately became a big fan of Magda, Marc Houle, Heartthrob and the likes. Shortly he started showcasing his personal selections in various festivals and venues all over Lithuania. He got acquainted with his future partner-in-crime Pupa and Shn, head promoter of the foremost Lithuanian techno community minimal.lt. Step by step, Calli consolidated as a key perfomer in the Lithuanian techno scene.

Concentrating on one style turned out to be hard, so Calli continued his musical pilgrimage by playing in many clubs and festivals around his home country. Matured and experienced, he was confident enough to start his own production. His talent was quickly noticed by Mantas T., the founder of a Lithuanian net-label Partyzanai, and in 2011 Jonas proudly presented his first EP ‘Acid from Nowhere’, which quickly gained recognition in the techno audience.

A few Techno and Tech House EPs in different labels soon followed, including his latest and most profound EP „Reverse Stories“, recorded in collaboration with the Lithuanian techno pioneer Pagalve. Their vinyl was later supported by UMEK, James Ruskin, Maya Jane Coles and even Joseph Capriati himself. During his career, Calli was lucky enough to jog turntables both locally and abroad with Magda, Troy Pierce, Marc Houle, DJ T., Dasha Rush, Snuff Crew and many others.

Later on the producer’s new love, Dark Disco-inspired spacious sound, started to beg for a new artistic alias. John Patter was born and the alter ego was a good enough reason to invest on new studio equipment and broaden his abilities of production. Launched with remixes for ba., a Lithuanian post-punk prodigy, and Latvian producers Esoniq & Negorod, he soon began laying some serious studio work and came up with his debut EP „Space Race“ in 2015, released in Ninefont.

After several releases on Argentinean’s label, John continues on his sound path and thus a new release is born on the Spanish label Shara Music called “Noche Santos”. Before this EP, Jonas did a great remix for Tkuz track “Electrico” which was released on the same label.

During the successful his own managed Darkroom event series in one of the best Lithuanian night club Kablys, he met many great artists from abroad and his sound was moved forward as well. The inspiration leaded him to new dimensions of EBM, mixtures of Dark Disco with Broken Beats and the result was a new release born on Esthetique’s sub label MOIL called “Trois Larmes” on 2020. Jonas continued his musical journey with inspiring new tracks & EP's, which were released on Rotten City Files and Melomana Records.
